A Toronto community is grieving the loss of a beloved local restaurant that offered customers a warm meal and a welcoming table in the heart of Oakwood Village.

The Oakwood Hardware is being forced to close after the restaurant’s landlord refused to renew its lease.

“I knew there really wasn’t any place for people to go in the neighbourhood, for like families, women, just anybody. There was no inclusive place. For me, it was really important to have that place that was welcoming for all people.” Goos said the restaurant was also a place she could visit on her own, and not feel lonely or uncomfortable.

Goos added that the prices were important to the community too. It was never too expensive and the prices never rose too high. “It’s not the kind of neighbourhood. It’s a lot of small families,” she said Toronto Councillor Josh Matlow took to social media earlier this month to express his disappointment after hearing about the restaurant’s closure.

“I just wanted it to be a warm place like from the moment you walk in, to feel welcome. It was important to me that anybody could walk in the door,” she said. “I always wanted this place to be more.” Blood biomarkers of telltale signs of early Alzheimer’s disease in the brain of his patient, 55-year-old entrepreneur Simon Nicholls, had all but disappeared in a mere 14 months.
