The Best Churros in Toronto

The best churros in Toronto are doughnuts given a Mexican upgrade. Delicious as is, sporting little more than a sugary cinnamon coating, they're even better dipped into chocolate, dulce de leche or some other sticky sweet, finger-licking good sauce.

Here are the best churros in Toronto.

At this churrería (with locations in Bloordale Village, Kensington Market, and more), the team pipes out stacks of churros, which it serves fashioned into ice cream cones, atop soft serve, or filled with all manner of sticky indulgences. Even with a simple dusting of cinnamon sugar, these light, crunchy fried snacks are hard to resist.

This family-run spot at Yonge & Dundas is known for its made-to-order churros available with a range of sauces — from chocolate and dulce de leche to lemon, apple cinnamon and blueberry. Just remember to order said sauce on the side, unless you welcome the very real risk of wearing a good portion of it home.

If you've never had churro batter wrapped around a wiener, the menu at this East York spot is sure to delight. Beyond churro dogs, the team serves up sauce-laden halo churros, churro bites and churros transformed into cups for ice cream. In short, there's a churro here for every moment of the day.

Wade through a menu of homemade Mexican fare to find hot, fresh churros at this chummy North York restaurant. Though you can order churros here individually, you'd be advised to order them by the dozen. In classic or cinnamon, dulce de leche or chocolate, they're bound to interest every one of your tablemates.

The team at this North York spot has a serious thing for churros — from frying them to order and saucing them, to dusting them with sugar and watching happy customers eagerly gobble them up. Classic sauces are available alongside every crisp, tender, irresistible pastry wand.

Avoid giving in to excess tacos at this Danforth spot, or risk leaving without a taste of the team's fluffy, light, habit-forming churros. Served six to an order, with a side of cajeta, they're perfect for both post-diner nibblers and those looking to demolish a whole bunch before coming up for air.


El Pocho

Antojitos, or snacks, are the focus at this Annex bar, where the team turns churros into myriad sweet and savoury bites. With fried chicken and jalapeños or served alongside a twee pot of dulce de leche, these churros deserve a spot on every table.

At this Junction restaurant, the kitchen team's skills extend from vibrant guacamole and rich, savoury birria to delicate churros, served piping hot, splashed with granules of sugar and flecks of cinnamon. Whether you opt for caramel or chocolate sauce is somewhat irrelevant — these churros taste good every which way they're served.
