Today this building is home to the Fox and Fiddle Precinct, a local pub with a great variety of beer on tap. However, beer was not always available or legal in the Village of Islington. The mural shows a pop truck rounding up empties in front of the Islington House, a local watering hole, which operated as an ice cream parlour and could only sell soda pop as a beverage during prohibition. At the time Burnhamthorpe Road was on the west side of the hotel and the hotel’s drive-shed stretched across what is now the intersection of Dundas W., Burnhamthorpe Road and Cordova Avenue.
