Since I just celebrated my birthday, so I thought it’d be a fun idea to share free stuff you can get on your birthday in Toronto!
It’s funny that as you get older, birthdays start to get less and less important – but even so, I love me some free stuff.
Since my birthday just crept up on me this year, I didn’t take advantage of any free things, but hopefully you manage to take advantage of all the free stuff you can get on your birthday in Toronto.
Some of these things are actually free, while others require purchase in order to get something free.
Without further ado, here are free things you can get on your birthday 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!
Free stuff to get on your birthday in Toronto

Chatime
Chatime is one of the best bubble tea spots in Toronto, and they offer a free handcrafted drink on your birthday.
You have to register your birthday on the Chatime app, and you’ll get the free birthday drink loaded onto your card 7 days before your birthday.
You do have to make a purchase before your birthday in order to get the free drink, and it’s valid for 7 days before and after your birthday.
The Signature Milk Tea is my absolute fave at Chatime, but I also love their Thai Milk Tea!

The Alley
The Alley is another one of my fave bubble tea spots in Toronto, and they offer a free drink on your birthday.
You just have to have the app on your phone, and you can only claim it on your actual birthday!
The Deerioca Fever with fresh milk is my go-to drink at The Alley.
They have tons of locations across the GTA, and I love how aesthetically pleasing and Instagrammable their stores are.

Starbucks
Starbucks also offers a free drink or breakfast sandwich for your birthday with the app, though it’s only good for the day of your birthday.
You have to register for the Starbucks Rewards program at least 7 days before your birthday, as well as make a purchase using the card before your birthday.
You also have to claim it at a standalone Starbucks location – it doesn’t work at certain Starbucks locations (such as inside Longo’s)!
One of my go-to drinks is the Caramel Macchiato (iced or hot), and lately I’ve been loving the limited edition Toasted Vanilla Oat Shaken Espresso.
Tim Hortons
Can’t get enough caffeine, or just looking for some free breakfast?
Tim Hortons offers a free drink (worth 70-100 points) or free breakfast sandwich on your birthday on the Tims Rewards app.
Baskin Robbins
Baskin Robbins offers buy one get one free on soft serve cones for your birthday, so it’s not exactly free, but it’s still something.
You just have to register for their Club 31 program to get the coupon for it, and you can register the day of your birthday!
They also offer $3 off an ice cream cake if you’re part of the Club 31 program.

Kettleman’s Bagels
Kettleman’s is a popular 24-hour Ottawa bakery that’s been serving up Montreal-style bagels since the 90’s, and they now have a location in downtown Toronto by Bathurst & Front!
You can get a free dozen bagels on your birthday if you sign up for their app, but you have to sign up at least 30 days before your birthday.
You can literally watch them make their bagels by hand inside the bakery, which is pretty cool!
Choose from a dozen different bagel options (including Poppy Seed, Garlic, and Blueberry), and order one of their amazing sandwiches while you’re already visiting.
LOCATION: 33 Bathurst St. Unit C, Toronto, ON
What a Bagel
What a Bagel offers 6 free bagels when you buy 6 bagels on your birthday.
They’re a Toronto-based bakery known for their bagels, but they have other pastries like croissants and cinnamon rolls!
They’ve got 3 locations downtown and several other locations across the GTA.
Mr. Sub
Mr. Sub offers a free 6-inch Classics sub if you sign up for their Mr. Sub Rewards program.
This includes their Assorted Sub (my personal fave), Veggie and Cheese, Ham Sub, and Pizza Sub!
South St. Burger
South St. Burger offers buy one get one free burger on your birthday.
They have awesome burgers that are made with Canadian angus beef, raised without antibiotics or hormones!
You have to register online for their Birthday Club at least 72 hours before your birthday, and you’ll receive the coupon on your birthday, which will be valid for 14 days.

The Works
The Works is an awesome Ontario-based burger chain with a bunch of locations across the GTA.
You can completely customize your burger, from the bun, to the patty, to the toppings, and the possibilities are endless.
They also have signature burgers to choose from – the Hipster is my go-to!
Sign up for their Burgers with Benefits Club at least 9 days before your birthday to get a free burger on your birthday.
Boston Pizza
Boston Pizza is one of my family’s favourite Canadian restaurant chains – their food is actually super delicious.
We especially love their pastas and pizzas!
You can get a free dessert if you sign up for their MyBP Loyalty Program.
Kelsey’s
Kelsey’s is another great Canadian restaurant chain, and they also offer free dessert on your birthday if you sign up for their emails.
Another awesome perk if you sign up for their emails: free spinach dip with the purchase of an entrée!

The Keg Steakhouse + Bar
The Keg has always been one of my family’s go-to restaurants for special occasions, and they give you a free Billy Miner Pie on your birthday.
Of course, you have to grab one of their steaks for dinner while you’re here!
Denny’s
Denny’s offers a free Build Your Own Grand Slam on your birthday, and it’s only valid for dining in.
You can choose 4 different breakfast items as part of the Build Your Own Grand Slam!
The free meal doesn’t include taxes or tips, and it’s not valid at their Niagara Falls or Nepean locations.

Sephora
Sephora comes out with a few different options of free birthday gifts each year that you can choose from.
They’re usually mini sets of makeup, skincare, or haircare products, and you have to register for their Beauty Insider program in order to get the free birthday gift!
You can walk into one of their stores and get the free birthday gift without purchasing anything, but you’ll have to buy something if you want to redeem it online.
The gift is redeemable 2 weeks before or after your birthday!
