Some eagle-eyed Mimico residents say the Black bull figure that stood outside Royal York Meat Market on Royal York Road has hit the hay.
The large bull, which has graced the meat store for years, was quietly removed earlier this month.
The bull which is sadly gone to better pastures graced this meat store for many years.
The meat store at 329 Royal York Road, near Hay Avenue, is reported to have been sold and is being refurnished as a restaurant.
The market has been popular with regulars for decades as it prided itself on selling fresh meats at a good price.
“Our meats are prepared daily and our produce section is constantly being added to,” according to its advertising.
The family business was voted one of the best meat shops in South Etobicoke at one time.
