Knowing which concourse to head for

Union Station is technically four buildings stitched together — the Great Hall (VIA Rail and the central concourse), the GO concourse below the moat (the busiest washrooms, multiple banks), the new York Concourse (cleanest and least crowded, accessed from the Bay Street side), and the TTC station underneath. The fastest path depends entirely on which entrance you came in. From Front Street, the closest reliable public washrooms are in the GO concourse one level down. From the PATH, you're already at the concourse level — keep walking west and the washrooms are signposted.

The cleanest, least-crowded options

York Concourse (Bay Street side, opened during the renovation) consistently has the cleanest washrooms in the building and almost never has a line. The new VIA Business lounge is ticket-holder only, but the public washroom directly outside the Great Hall on the north side is well-maintained and accessible. Avoid the original GO concourse washrooms during weekday rush (4:30–6:30 PM) — they get hammered.

If Union is too busy: PATH and Front Street alternatives

Union is connected to the PATH, which means you can walk west for 2–3 minutes and end up in Brookfield Place, RBC WaterPark Place, or the Fairmont Royal York — all with quieter, equally free public washrooms. The Fairmont's lobby washrooms (one floor down from the Front Street entrance, follow signs to Library Bar) are open 24/7 and a known safe haven when Union shuts down overnight. Across Front Street, the Air Canada Centre / Scotiabank Arena perimeter has additional public washrooms during event hours.

Accessibility, baby change, and overnight

Union has multiple universal/accessible washrooms with baby change tables — the most reliably open is in the GO concourse near the food court. The TTC station has an accessible washroom inside the paid area. Overnight (roughly 1:30 AM–5:30 AM), the main station closes; for late trains and overnight travellers, the Fairmont Royal York lobby across the street is the standing answer.
