What people say, in short
Civil Liberties draws repeated cocktail-bar recommendations. Two patrons especially enjoy its no-menu approach, describing drinks built around their preferences rather than selected from a list. Others call it a favourite or a classic, and a visitor rates the cocktails highly after a trip to Toronto. One commenter suggests looking for the pineapple sign. Personalized drinks are the recurring draw, rather than a particular named cocktail.
