★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The artwork is amazing but it was advertised as three floors and it was only two floors. Extremely friendly staff and the little café is great with a wide selection

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Sooooo happy we have a substantial contemporary art museum in Toronto.
I've been to the two mid/post pandemic exhibits and really enjoyed them.
It's not a huge space (three midsize floors), but they make the most of them, and the space allows for a lot of flexibility. Sometimes the exhibits are all connected, sometimes not. And it's usually not to crowded (esp now). They're doing times entry tickets, which are good to get, but outside popular times like early afternoon, I've always just walked in.
The cafe on site is also fantastic for coffee, sandwiches, pastries and a nice seated patio. You don't have to go anywhere else, but if you do there's a great coffee shop next door, and the Drake commissary around the corner.
Also, make it an art crawl, and go check out the Arsenal and other galleries in the area!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very very few art to see. Yes 3 floors of art, but most of the art, was well… it felt… empty, to say the least. That’s how I would describe it. Lots of big empty spaces and sporadic placement of art I suppose? I pretty much finished exploring the three floors in 30 min. The curation was unimpressive. Will give them the benefit of the doubt, since they are somewhat a newly established art museum. I was more fascinated and inspired by the architecture, which housed the art than the art itself, to be honest. Come on… the building, the space has soooo much potential. Hopefully, they will bring it to its glory and life in the near future, and make it like the one in NY. On the side note, they have an amazing cafe in the building that serves delicious drinks and food. That was the only highlight for me in the building, sadly. Oh… and thank goodness the Toronto Biennial Art had an exhibit in the area going on - or else, I would have felt my visit wasted.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A great space overall and Forno Cultura on the ground floor hits the spot. MOCA is never busy which makes for a chilled overall experience. My only critique is that I wish there were more floors and exhibits - hopefully with more funding in the future they consider an expansion.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Best place to spend Friday afternoon ? This location has three floors of Contemporary Art. I would advise you to visit the Shirin Neshat exhibition while it is still ongoing (until July 31 2022)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ MOCA brings regularly rotated contemporary artists from all over the world and brings them to this gorgeous and spacious building! At the moment, there typically is only 3 floors and less than 5 exhibits/artists being featured, but its always awesome and thought provoking works of art! Every first Sunday of the month is free, sponsored by TD, so consider coming on one of those days.
MOCA has come a long way from their small gallery space on Queen West years ago, so we need to celebrate what they have been able to offer and make use of this beautiful space ❤️

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great space with contemporary art in a wide range of mediums. The current exhibit has some painting, photography, and sculpture but also includes works which utilize mixed media and interactivity. The museum occupies several floors and I recommend taking the stairs if you can.
There's a restaurant on the main floor but there is also a brewery and a coffee roastery nearby.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Free Ground Floor entry and very reasonable pricing for paid exhibitions on 1st and 2nd floors. A wonderful space, with great original features (those concrete pillars!) And the most sumptuous cafe for pre or post treats.
