15 Cute Spring Photo Spots in Toronto

Looking to spruce up your Instagram feed with some cute spring photo spots in Toronto?

After a long and dreary winter, I’ll take all the spring vibes I can get.

As a gal who loves to layer my clothing, spring is probably my second favourite season (next to fall) to dress up for as well.

Cute outfits plus pretty locations — of course you’ve got to document that on the ‘Gram.

From pretty florals to bright colours, here are some of the cutest and most Instagram-worthy spring photo spots in Toronto!

Be sure to also follow me on Instagram and TikTok – I share a lot more content on those platforms that don’t make it to the blog!

Cute spring photo spots in Toronto


My favourite feelings

This is Paradise mural

After the gloomy shades of winter, I’m all about bright and happy colours for spring.

The “This is Paradise” mural on Queen West is super cute, and it’s not as busy as other popular Toronto murals.

It’s located right by Queen & Spadina, so you can do some explorin’, shoppin’, and eatin’ after snapping your cute pic.

LOCATION: 408 Queen St W, Toronto, ON


StrangeLove Coffee mural in Toronto

Strange Love Cafe mural

I just can’t get enough of bright colours for spring, okay?!

This inspirational “keep going” mural is right outside the now-closed Strange Love Cafe by King and Spadina, which was one of Toronto’s best coffee shops.

You might remember there used to be a pink “Toronto” mural here, but they updated it to this new mural a few years ago.

LOCATION: 101 Spadina Ave, Toronto, ON


Yorkville, Toronto

111 Scollard Street

Get all the spring vibes at this aesthetic little corner in Yorkville.

It’s a pretty random spot, but it’s definitely a cute go-to spot to visit whenever I’m looking for photo spots in the Yorkville neighbourhood!

Afterwards, you can visit the cutest restaurants and cafés in Yorkville.

If you’re looking for more new areas to explore in the city, I’ve got a blog post all about cute neighbourhoods in Toronto.

Spring flowers at Toronto Music Garden by the waterfront

Toronto Music Garden

The Toronto Music Garden is an enchanting spot along the Harbourfront that’s especially beautiful during the spring when all the flowers start to bloom.

They disappear pretty quickly though, and they typically bloom between early to mid-May!

This photo was taken closer to the end of May, and most of the pink flowers on one of the trees behind me had already fallen off.

Stop into one of the best Harbourfront restaurants afterwards!

LOCATION: 479 Queens Quay W, Toronto, ON


Spring flowers at Osgoode Hall in Toronto

Osgoode Hall

April showers bring May flowers, especially at the Osgoode Hall courtyard.

The flowers gently blowing off the trees is magical, and makes for some pretty darn cute Instagram photos.

Osgoode Hall is also a heritage building in Toronto, so it’s really cool to visit!

LOCATION: 130 Queen St W, Toronto, ON


High Park cherry blossoms in Toronto

High Park

Of course, we can’t forget the cherry blossoms at High Park.

The Japanese ambassador to Canada donated the first cherry blossom trees (also known as sakura) as a thank you to the City of Toronto for accepting re-located Japanese-Canadians after WWII.

High Park cherry blossoms in Toronto

The cherry blossoms typically bloom sometime between end of April to beginning of May, and it’s pretty much crowded at all hours of the day.

Go as early in the day as you can to avoid as much as the crowds as possible!

LOCATION: 1873 Bloor St W, Toronto, ON


Allan Gardens Conservatory in Toronto, Canada

Allan Gardens Conservatory

With spring comes a lot of rain, which makes Allan Gardens the perfect spot to take cute spring photos in Toronto.

It’s completely indoors, plus it’s free to enter.

Just be wary that they’re finicky about people who come to take “professional” photos, even just with a smartphone!

LOCATION: 160 Gerrard St E, Toronto, ON


Toronto skyline view from Billy Bishop Airport

Billy Bishop Airport

Beautiful spring weather and sunshine just makes you want to get outside, doesn’t it?

A super cute spring date idea you can do with your S/O (or BFFs) is to go around checking out all the best spots to see the Toronto skyline with the iconic CN Tower view.

Billy Bishop Airport is in my opinion one of the top places to see the Toronto skyline, and it’s completely free to visit even if you’re not flying out of the airport!

Plus, since this spot is so out of the way, it’s not that busy for taking photos.

If you’re looking for more great skyline views, check out Toronto’s best restaurants with a scenic view.

LOCATION: 2 Eireann Quay, Toronto, ON


Trinity Square, Toronto

Church of the Holy Trinity

I’m all about the pastels during spring, and you’ll find this beautiful pastel door at the Church of the Holy Trinity.

The church is located in Trinity Square, which is right behind the Toronto Eaton Centre.

I think they actually filmed some scenes of the show Reign on here, so that’s also pretty cool!

LOCATION: 19 Trinity Square, Toronto, ON

Rustle & Still

This Vietnamese café is one of my favourites in the city, and their gorgeous space is filled with tons of greenery and wood elements.

Their menu features Asian-inspired drinks and bites, and their Vietnamese Coffee and Matcha Pandan Latte are both must-tries.

If you’re feeling hungry, be sure to grab one of their banh mi sandwiches!

LOCATION: 605 Bloor St W, Toronto, ON


Reyna on King is one of the most Instagrammable brunch spots in Toronto

Reyna on King

Reyna on King is one of the most gorgeous restaurants in Toronto’s East End, and the bright jewel tones and plants make for gorgeous spring shots.

Snap a cute photo in front of the neon sign or sitting in one of the gorgeous teal bar stools.

Their Mediterranean-inspired brunch is also amaze (and super Instagrammable), and they serve up the best shakshuka in the entire city.

If you’re interested in seeing more, I’ve got a blog post all about my review of Reyna on King!

LOCATION: 354 King St E, Toronto, ON

Dineen Outpost

Dineen is a well-known Toronto coffee shop brand with multiple locations around the city, and their East End location is probably my favourite.

This space features the decor of your pastel dreams, with pink marble tables and pink banquette seating. What a dream!

They also serve up some pretty great coffee, so that’s a plus.

LOCATION: 1042 Gerrard St E, Toronto, ON


Ladurée at Yorkdale Mall, Toronto

Ladurée Yorkdale

Let’s be real, Toronto: the weather ain’t all sunshine and flowers in the spring.

We’ve got the fool’s spring, then the second winter, then actual spring.

Ladurée Yorkdale Mall

So take advantage of some cute indoor photo spots in Toronto like Ladurée Yorkdale with its pretty pink and teal aesthetic.

While you’re at it, enjoy some afternoon tea and authentic French macarons!

Then, take a walk around Yorkdale and enjoy some of the best shopping in Toronto.

You can also visit Ladurée’s Financial District location in the PATH, which has all the fun and tropical vibes.

LOCATION: 3401 Dufferin St, North York, ON


Yang's Fruit & Flower Market in Toronto

Yang’s Fruit & Flower Market

Kick off spring by grabbing a fresh floral bouquet at Yang’s in the Annex neighbourhood, and snap a quick pic while you’re at it.

They’ve got buckets of fresh blooms in front of the store – perfect for getting a springy shot for the ‘Gram!

Don’t forget to actually support the biz and buy some flowers here if you’re gonna snap any pics!

LOCATION: 132 Avenue Rd, Toronto, ON


The Broadview Hotel in Toronto

The Broadview Hotel

The Broadview Hotel is a stunning boutique hotel in Toronto that’s also super Instagram-worthy.

The building was originally built as a commer­cial centre in the late 1800s, and it’s now got a mix of modern and Victorian elements.

The most Instagrammable places to take photos in Toronto during the winter when it's freezing cold outside!

I adore their main floor café space – you can get photos in this little nook, by the bar, and even by all the tables.

They’ve also got a gorgeous rooftop restaurant and outdoor terrace that offers up scenic skyline views!

Definitely a boutique hotel worth booking your next staycation at – you can book a stay on Expedia!

LOCATION: 106 Broadview Ave, Toronto, ON
