The 44 bars serving until 4 a.m. for TIFF

Whether you're a movie buff or not, one of the perks of having a major festival like TIFF in town is that numerous restaurants and bars are allowed to extend last call until 4:00 a.m. (two hours later than normal). Being a fan of a libation or two, I feel duty-bound to share the list of these establishments. Not all of them are places that you'd really want to be hanging around in at 3:30 in the morning -- Oliver & Bonacini Cafe comes to mind -- but the list does show some decent range. From straight-up restaurants to bars to clubs, the options for late night drinking are plentiful.
