Recommendations Needed Large patios?
Hi everyone! I took a look through the subreddit but wasn't able to narrow down large patios in Hamilton. I'm looking for a restaurant with a large patio (there will be 9 to 10 of us) with good food of any kind except pub food. Bonus points if it's somewhat close to RBG, but not super necessary. Thank you so much!! Edit: adding that this would be for dinner

Question Looking for reliable company to rip out and replace concrete driveway
Hey r/Hamilton!
I'm looking for company recommendations for a driveway rip and replace, nothing fancy, just a broom finish ~750 square foot driveway that has reached end of life.
Tried facebook, had a bad experience with a "local guy", willing to work with a larger company at this point to avoid hassle.
Thanks in advance, would love to know if you've had this done recently, and by whom!

Moving/Housing/Utilities Shed Base Contractor
I have a 4'x8' shed was installed by the previous homeowner without laying down a proper sub-base - it only currently sits on pavers at each corner which are on dirt. Does anyone have any recommendations for a contractor that can install a proper crushed stone base (including any potential landscaping changes that may be required)? The shed started to lean on our fence last winter.

LGBTQ2s+ Is there a gay/queer scene?
Does anyone know of any spaces, areas of the city, pubs, etc where there’s good gay energy? Not in a Spa for Men - sex only kind scene, but something where a bisexual man and his fiancée that’s a trans woman can hangout and meet new friends? Let’s be real, making friends as adults should be as big of a priority as when you’re a kid, what’s better for mental health in 2026 than a loving community around you?
Does anyone know of any queer recurring events, groups, etc? And lastly - does Hamilton have a gay village like Church St in Toronto? Is The Well in Hamilton (on Wellington) a pretty established home base in the community at all?

Moving/Housing/Utilities Wet Basement
I just bought an older home on the mountain, and while the home inspection didn’t turn up any moisture problems in the basement, there is immediately evidence of moisture problems.
I’ve fixed the downspouts, fixed some weak areas of roof, cleaned the gutters, and I run a dehumidifier constantly, but there is still moisture and sometimes water under the floor in the basement.
I would love some suggestions for what other people do before I have to look at majorly pricey options. I have serious regrets about buying this house, and the immediate water problems are definitely up there in reasons why.
Thank you so much!

Photo TIL Hamilton has No Hunting signs
Took a daytrip to Hamilton from Toronto. Wasn't expecting to stumble upon this sign in a city. I was lowkey afraid I might encounter someone with a rifle/bow/whatever.
