This unremarkable entryway at 750 College Street in Little Italy leads to El Convento Rico, one of the more notable gay clubs in Toronto and certainly one of the very few Latin-themed gay bars.

In the heart of trendy College St there stands a legend of sorts, El Convento Rico, for many years the bar was a safe haven for gay, lesbian or any other person who would be persecuted for being different. Nowadays the club prides itself on being "the most mixed bar in Toronto" gay or straight and from any walk of life, they can be found here, this is a place that has to be experienced at least once.

There are free Latin dance lessons, the music played in the club ranges from Salsa, Latin, House Hip Hop and Reggae, the bar hosts an array of excellent Latin performers and the highlight of the night is the wild drag queen shows at midnight.
