The Room

Lakeshore Road, from dinner service to last call.

Beacon is a contemporary restaurant and cocktail bar on Lakeshore Road in downtown Oakville — navy velvet, brass and candlelight, with a sculptural wood-slat wall and a green leather banquette running the length of the room. Below: the plates coming out of the kitchen, the cocktails coming over the bar, and the room itself, photographed in daylight and again after dark.
