A Parkdale bar behind on rent has had the locks changed by the landlord. “Pretty Ugly” at 1237 Queen Street West received a notice from its landlord and found its doors locked on Tuesday. “We have had great success negotiating mutually beneficial and long term healthy agreements with most of our landlords,” Van Gameren said. “Unfortunately we are not having such success at this location.”Prior to the pandemic the rent was always paid on time at the Queen Street West bar, he said. Van Gameren became known in Toronto’s restaurant scene while co-owning and working as a chef at The Black Hoof, which opened in 2008 and has since closed.
