Stones Place is the answer to what is wrong with every other bar in Toronto. Upon arriving to the bar, you may on occasion encounter a -very- long line but if not you'll head in and pay probably a $10 cover charge (on a Saturday), which includes coat check (as there is nothing more irritating to me about a place that has coat check for a fee, especially those that make it mandatory [yes, I'm talking about you, Shallow Groove]).
In the bar, there's a great dance stage always busy (but usually not TOO busy) with drunk kids dancing to what is the essential draw of this place: the music. Contemporary Top-40 doesn't find it's way into this Place. With ample seating (including a pool table in the back) and low lighting, the ambiance is perfect to let loose.
The only complaint, aside from the occasional long line, is possibly the size of the serving bar - it can take some time to get a drink, even on more lightly-attended nights, but the bar staff are always helpful and move as quickly as they can.
All in all, if you're looking to get away from the Richmond Street row, this is one of the best places to do so.

good point ruth! they play mostly classic rock (e.g., Rolling Stones [obviously], AC/DC, etc. but also more recent stuff like Van Halen, MJ and anything else that you can think of that's fun to dance to that doesn't involve artists whose names have "Spears" or "T-Pain" in them.
