Mrs Robinson is inviting Toronto Common to a special tasting of their new menu, with the option to include a House Cocktail, plus live music (starting at 8pm).

Mrs Robinson offers live music every Tuesday and Thursday so we’ll be able to catch the first set of their Tuesday performance and guests are welcome to enjoy the rest.

Known for their feel good vibe, innovative cocktails, and mix of hip hop, soul, and funk music, Mrs Robinson is part 70s/80s nostalgia, part modern cocktail bar.

The story of Mrs. Robinson begins with Sylvia Robinson - the Founder of Sugar Hill Records and also the producer of the first ever hip hop single, "Rapper's Delight".

Often dubbed "The Mother of Hip Hop", she was producer, creator, inspiration, and namesake.
