When Bin 152 opened back in 2009 on the lower end of King Street, it seemed to be in the middle of nowhere, located in a shopping district that was feeling somewhat forlorn. How that’s changed in the ensuing years. With Husk, the Heirloom Book Company, and Bull Street Gourmet joining 82 Queen and Poogan’s Porch, the area has become a hub of culinary activity, anchored by the easy charms of Bin 152, a very Euro wine bar that stocks serious wines and beers. It’s a great place to begin your night. Meet your friends, get a glass of wine, and order some charcuterie and cheese before strolling off to your next destination. —Stephanie Barna
