The Client

Pigeon's owner wanted a space that is welcoming, fun, and very casual, with a build that respected a modest budget. PT built both of the brand's Toronto locations for the same owner; this page covers the King West café & bar.

Restaurant dining area featuring a large artificial tree wrapped with warm string lights, marble-top tables, upholstered chairs, curved banquette seating, and mirrored archways creating an indoor garden atmosphere.
Modern restaurant bar featuring a curved marble countertop, suspended black metal shelving with hanging glassware and plants, exposed brick walls, café equipment, and an open layout connecting the dining area and kitchen.

The Build

Pigeon Café & Bar is a cafe build-out on King West, Toronto, a project at almost the other end of the spectrum from fine dining and not an expensive build. PT delivered the space as a turn-key project, holding to the owner's modest budget while making the cafe what the brief asked for: welcoming, fun, and very casual. The same owner trusted PT with the brand's other Toronto location too: both locations, one builder, both within budget.

Bright restaurant dining area featuring marble-top tables, curved tan banquette seating, a large artificial tree with warm string lights, mirrored arches, chandeliers, and modern garden-inspired décor.
Commercial restaurant kitchen with stainless steel cooking line, prep counters, refrigeration, shelving, dishware, and food service equipment illuminated by bright overhead lighting.

Every project begins with a detailed, line-itemized quote. We track costs weekly and flag any potential variances before they become issues. There are no hidden fees and no surprise change orders. That's how we delivered both Pigeon locations within the owner's budget.

We work with independent restaurant owners, multi-unit operators, and hospitality groups across the GTA. Our portfolio includes fast casual concepts, full-service dining rooms, bars, breweries, and flagship restaurant builds in neighbourhoods including Little Italy, Queen West, King Street West, Yorkville, and Ossington. Pigeon's King West café & bar is part of that portfolio. Whether you are opening your first location or expanding across the city, PT has the experience to deliver.

A standard restaurant fit-out takes 6 to 16 weeks depending on size and scope. Commercial kitchen builds may require additional time based on equipment specifications and inspection requirements. The timeline starts from permit approval and we manage the full permitting process, factoring it into your project schedule from day one, whether it's your first cafe or, like Pigeon's owner, your second.
