About
Leslie Grove Park at 1158 Queen Street East in Toronto's Leslieville neighborhood is a neighborhood park with a playground and green space that serves one of the east end's most popular family areas.
The playground has equipment for toddlers through elementary age with climbers, slides, and swings. The park has more green space than many neighborhood playgrounds, giving kids room to run, play catch, or have a picnic. Some shade from mature trees makes summer visits more comfortable.
Leslieville has become one of Toronto's most family-oriented neighborhoods, with a thriving independent restaurant and shop scene along Queen Street East. The park is right on Queen Street, making it easy to combine playground time with a cafe stop or brunch.
No washroom facilities at the park. TTC streetcar 501 (Queen) provides transit access. Leslie Grove Park is a solid neighborhood playground, not a destination park. Pair it with exploring Leslieville's food scene for a pleasant east-end morning.
