The newest in the Duke Pubs Family, the Duke of Somerset is located on Bay Street between Elm and Gerrard. The Somerset is right in the city centre, surrounded by Yonge Dundas Square, Ryerson, Ontario Government offices, major tourist shopping and Toronto’s main hospital network. The pub is also on the way to Nathan Phillips Square. Somerset has a portico-style patio, which is heated.
