Toronto bar Pegasus on Church recently marked 30 years in the Church-Wellesley Village, evolving from its humble beginnings as a billiards lounge in 1995 into a community hub today that emphasizes unique programming and provides a welcoming space for the LGBTQ community. Pegasus originally got its start as Pegasus Billiard Lounge just north of its current location.
