Counterpark Brewing located in the north end of Niagara Falls in an industrial plaza is a craft brewery and kitchen. The brewery itself produces many beers and the kitchen has a great selection of food items as well as daily specials. The space is kid and family friendly where it is fully accessible (stroller friendly!). There are board games you can play and a small kids corner if your children want to play with a huge connect four as well. In terms of parking, there are lots of spots throughout the parking lot. In the summer there is also a small patio to enjoy your beers and food. Menu wise, the variety of dishes include classics like a burger and poutine as well as pasta and a vegetarian banh mi. There is also a small kids menu as well. Drinks menu wise, there is a large list of beers to choose from as well as a small list of wines, ciders, and non-alcoholic options. I had a party of 5 (4 adults and 1 baby) dine at Counterpart Brewery recently. Staff were accommodating where there was a high seat available for the baby. The space is spacious although in some areas it may be harder to fit a stroller through, but either way the space is very kid and family friendly (we saw many kids and families during our time there!). Service was great and the staff were friendly. The menu is accessed through a QR code via your phone which is at the table. My party ordered the following: - Fried chicken sandwich (b&b pickles, pickled jalapenos, cabbage slaw, and sriracha mayo) - $17 - Porchetta sandwich (slow roasted Italian pork, salsa verde, crispy crackling, arugula) - $17 - House cut fries (old bay, malt vinegar aioli) - $10 - Peach Chardonnay cider from Niagara Cider Company - $10 - Grilled jerk chicken plate (grilled pineapple, house cut fries, red cabbage slaw, cilantro) - $27 I tried the fried chicken sandwich and the porchetta sandwich. Both sandwiches were delicious! In terms of the fried chicken sandwich, the chicken (which was dark meat) was tender and juicy. The pickles and slaw complimented the chicken well where the sandwich didn't feel heavy. The overall sandwich wasn't spicy even though there were jalapenos and sriracha mayo. The porchetta sandwich was also great as well which was served on a ciabatta style bun. The pork was tasty and the salsa verde added so much flavour to the sandwich. The crispy crackling definitely added some textural contrast to each bite. Overall, a great place with delicious eats and friendly service! If you enjoy beer they have a great selection to choose from. The place is also very family friendly with lots of parking outside. A must try if you are in the Niagara Falls area! read more

My daughter was here last summer while visiting the falls. It's great to get out of town for a bit (15 min drive) and enjoy some great food and a cold one Non-Niagara pricing here. Good food. Great service and your typical brewery atmosphere They have a lot of seating inside and out Smart idea with wood block on the table that's holding the online menu. You need help. Stand the wood block up! If you don't need any attention lay it down Great idea whoever thought of it!!! Tried the fish tacos and they were delicious along with some fries. Sorry no pics read more

We had a great experience at Counterpart Brewing! The vibe is awesome, with a welcoming patio, friendly staff, and even live acoustic sets that added to the relaxed atmosphere. The beer here is really solid--creative, unique, and well-brewed. My wife and I both got a flight and took a few cans home, including the Pizza Pils, which we're especially excited to try. Our flight standouts were: * Better Place * Broken Crown * Blender * March of the Pigs The food was a hit too, with plenty of vegetarian options. My wife got the Tofu Banh Mi and loved it--perfectly cooked tofu, great sauce, and a really fresh coleslaw. I had the Fried Chicken Sandwich, and it was crispy, juicy, and packed with flavour--loved the jalapeños and coleslaw combo. We also want to shout out the fries--nicely seasoned (tasted like Old Bay), and paired with a malt aioli that was super tasty. The house pickles were another small touch that stood out--fresh and tangy, and my wife was a big fan. Our friends enjoyed their meals too--the Jerk Chicken Tacos looked delicious, though they only come with two and are a bit small. The poutine also looked great! Overall, Counterpart is definitely worth visiting if you're into great beer and good eats. Can't wait to check out Counterpie, the pizzeria attached to the brewery, next time! read more

This place was great! The interior is very nice and clean! They have a great system down to know when the customer is ready to order and when they have been taken care of. Everyone helps every table and work as a great team! Their food was absolutely amazing. Their poutine was one of the best we had while visiting Canada. Their burger was also phenomenal. I do find it funny that the kids burger is the same size as the adults and comes with fries, where the adult burger did not. But either way, they were great! My husband loved each beer he tried. I did have a wine, that was quite a small pour. But if that is the only negative, I'll take it! Highly recommend! read more

Stopped in for a quick drink. The place was busy and lively, the server explained they were celebrating an anniversary and were having brunch as a celebratory measure. Unfortunately we had already eaten but the options looked amazing! read more

To be honest, my review is so low because the people who work here were so unfriendly. Our waitress and the man behind the bar were so unfriendly. Which is sad because the place itself is really cute inside and the beers were really good, as well as I really enjoyed our food. We got the poutine and burgers and they were amazing. But They should train their staff to be friendlier though! read more

Wow reviews don't lie about this place!!! Staff is so kind and has great recommendations. the flights are amazing to get to try a lot of their Hazy IPAs, loved the "what the F is flow" and the poutine was the best we've had in Canada. Was recommended the chicken sandwhich and told "there would be riots if we took it off the menu" AND THEY WERE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. As a lover of chicken sandwiches this just may be the best one I've ever had. Must come if you're in the falls area and enjoy the patio with the calming atmosphere and great vibes. Wish I could come back again everyday! read more

I usually always go to a place twice before I review it. However this place was so good the first time. I will definitely return. Please start serving non-alcoholic beer. It only gets 4 stars right now but one day maybe 5. read more

This brewery came onto our radar when some of their big beer releases were shared in a Facebook beer group. The beers sounded great and we knew on our last visit to Niagara Falls that there wasn't great brewery options. We started following Counterpart on Facebook and planned a visit for a future trip. It was a pretty easy drive after crossing the border. It is in with a self storage place which is a bit weird. The brewery is light and bright. They have a nice patio. We were greeted and seated immediately. We knew we wanted to try a beer or two and grab some lunch before continuing on our journey. I tried a fruited sour which was flavorful and just a bit tart. It was tasty. I also appreciated they sold single cans to go as we were able to grab a few other options. Unfortunately they didn't have any of the stout and barleywines that kept catching our attention as they keep those as special releases. I hope to be able to try some in the future. As a lover of a good Banh mi I had to try the fried tofu Banh mi they offered. The tofu was crispy. The sandwich was super flavorful with a hint of spice. The bread held up well. It was delicious and I would always be happy to eat this. Also tried a crispy cauliflower taco which was very tasty. A lot of flavor packed into a little taco. My fiance said he could have eaten 6 of them. They have a wide variety of food on the menu. I love that it isn't just typical bar food. They had a lot of vegetarian and vegan options, which can be difficult to find at a brewery. This is a little off the main tourist area in Niagara Falls. It is a great spot to stop for some food and a good beer. Wide variety of both food and drinks. Beautiful space with friendly service. read more

Amazing service, great food! We had the appetizers and most of all delicious beer that was an amazing price to go!

Epic place! Visited on a chilly Sunday in March on our way back from a quick Niagara Falls March break trip with family and we had a great time. The space is beautiful, the servers were all super friendly and the food was absolutely delicious, like every single thing. Loved the games area they had set up in the corner of the main dining area - my three year old daughter and her cousin had a blast playing with the giant ring game and the pac man game as well. I didn't try any of the beer this visit but my hubby loved their suds and took a mixed six pack to go. Sad we don't live closer to this place but if you're reading this review, just go! read more

Considering this is a brewery first before a restaurant, I was pleasantly surprised at how good the food was here! We ordered the fried chicken sandwich (pretty spicy!), PEI mussels, and crispy fried brussels sprouts. The brussels sprouts were my favourite for sure. The ginger chili dressing, sesame, cilantro was the perfect balance! All the food was extremely delicious and great quality for the price point. Service was unique here as you had to scan the QR code for the menu but only press the button when you're ready to order and ready for the bill. You pay at the front. In terms of the beer, great selection of craft beers. My husband ordered this amazing stout that said it would taste like coffee crisp and it did!!! How amazing is that? Ample parking outside. The spot is located on a road that doesn't look as scenic as the rest of NOTL. It looks like a side street in Brampton where they do manufacturing and warehouses. But the inside is nice and industrial and the tables are wooden picnic table benches. Would definitely come back again and would highly recommend. read more

We were sure that our GPS had sent us in the wrong direction when we pulled into the parking lot for a storage facility. However, the brepub is located in the same building at the other end. We opted for outside seating on their patio, which was quieter than the echoing, rock music they were playing indoors at a high volume. The burger was delicious. The hummus platter was interesting with the spiced fried cauliflower being a real highlight. The beers were good and perfect for a 90 degree day. read more

Great beer, delicious food, ultra friendly staff - what more can you ask for? First: Beer. We tried a flight of beer, and honestly the description on every one sounds so enticing it's hard to pick four. My favorite of the IPAs is Aerials, fruity, juicy and with a mellow roundness to the hoppiness that makes it incredibly drinkable. The Constellations is such a fruit bomb. When Worlds Collide Hefeweizen has a good banana note but more funky than I like. Second: Food. Absolutely can compete with the best restaurants. Even if you don't drink, the food is worth coming for. First of all, their sourdough, made in house with their own spent grain, has a lovely crust with an incredibly airy inside. So good. So good, in fact, we ordered two loaves to take home. The beef crudo not only looks pretty, it tastes divine. A fancy restuarant may serve you a steak tartare for twice the price and half the portion and won't taste as good. Last but not least: Their people are so cheerful and helpful, and really go above and beyond for special requests. Thank you so much. NOTL may be wine country, but make time for beer and come here! read more

It's very rare to find a brewery amazing food food - especially when the beer itself is top notch and worth traveling for The tasting room/restaurant is very well decorated (wood, metal and art), nice outdoor seating (even though we are in an office park setting) They really know how to do ipa here loved - Aerials Hazy IPA w/ Nelson Sauvin & Motueka - nice body. My favorite is Constellation - fruited pale ale. It's juicy and refreshing. Full Circle which is a dry hopped kolsch - just enough hops to make it more refreshing The staff is great - very patient with our 1500 questions about everything They also carry wine, seltzer and na drinks A true gem. Must check out read more

Unfortunately, our visit got off on the wrong foot right away. Our waitress was extremely rude from the moment she approached our table and made us feel like she didn't want to serve us at all. The food also came out one dish at a time, so we couldn't actually eat together one person was already halfway done before the next plate arrived. The poutine fries were way overcooked, and while the beer was just okay, nothing really stood out. The ambience itself was nice, but the poor service from both the waitress and the man behind the counter left a bad impression. Sadly, I wouldn't return. read more

Decided to swing by for dinner. Was seated upstairs as the main floor was busy for dinner. Thought that was a good sign. You do have to walk up the stairs, no elevators. The drinks were OK. The service was also fair. But the food... wow. Everything was SO salty! I mean, every item we ordered! They all looked tasty, but it seemed like we ordered salt with a side of burger or fries or salad, etc. The gingerale was the tastiest thing for me, since it wasn't salty! Definitely developed some heartburn after. Not sure why... maybe because it is a brewery? It's loud downstairs, and ambiance is your typical brewery. read more

Cute brewery w a patio beside a self storage space! They sell flights of 4 beers for $13 and they have a variety of tasty craft and sour beers! They have an INCREDIBLE fried chicken sandwich which was super soft, moist, well seasoned and had a wonderful crunch! I Loved the slaw, pickles and jalapeños in between a soft and toasty bun which helped create the perfect bite. It's not a huge sandwich but it was a great and delicious snack!! Definitely a must try if you're going there. I also loved their beer selection. Really liked the vanilla and coconut roller which looked like a heavy stout but was an oatmeal stout (tasted almost like a black coffee without coffeewith vanilla and coconut wonderful aftertaste. Will be back!! read more

I had the feature burger and the fried Chick Peas. Food was great ! Feature burger comes on it's own, and doesn't need anything. A true juicy, fatty, wonderful burger. Chick peas were a wonder crunchy set up. The Brew is quality, but not necessarily my cup of tea on the whole. I'm from New England, and several of the brews are reminiscent of beers by the famed Alchemist in Stowe. Meaning many would consider them a premium taste profile, but I find them all a bit hoppy (meaning slightly bitter), HOWEVER, I would say that I think Counterpart does a better job of mixing in some fruity essences to counter balance out the hoppy nature. Some of their collaborations speak even better of their effort to create more flavor differentiation, and the "What the f*** . . . ", I found a hefty, easy to down beer (a really good pint for a day gone wrong ;). It's fully worth a stop. read more

If you like smoothie sours and hazy IPAs, you're not going to do better in a very, very wide radius in Canada. Easily on par with a lot of the USA breweries who are known for these styles (and surpassing some popular/trendy ones too). Great beers, great food/unique and changing menu, and great service. Kid friendly too. Space is relatively small, but open and airy. Nothing really else to add - if this sounds good, you should absolutely check it out. read more

Found amazing reviews on this place and wow it did not disappoint! Staff were super friendly and a great selection of beers, ciders and other drinks.

Absolutely amazing restaurant to go to. To start off, amazing location with spacious parking lot. Lots of Outdoor seatings. Inside was spacious as well. Service was 200%. Our waiter was low key cuteeee and very helpful. He suggested a hiking place for us, which we went to after lunch( definitely worth it). Food was absolutely delicious. My favorite was the spicy chicken sandwich, as someone from southern part of the US, I'm very picky with my fried chicken sandwiches. The sandwich itself was juicy with a kick of spiciness and low key cheap!!! This restaurant was the highlight of my trip. If I ever come back to Toronto will try my best to stop by here. I don't really drink, but my friend said the alcohol was good read more

Really great burgers! Wish they had a GF bun, but it was good without. This was our first time to this restaurant , it is "a la carte", anything can come out at anytime. Our burgers came out before our drinks arrived. Then the fries came after our burgers were finished. I truly didn't enjoy that sequence. The servers were all pleasant and it was a fun family type of place. Would definitely go back. Maybe would attempt to hack the system to get drinks first, then attempt to get burgers and french fries around the same time. If anyone has tips, please share! This could be a four star rating but how everything came out was all so random and I didn't feel like I was being taken care of... just thrown out random items from our order when someone decided to make it. read more

We were here for a hockey tournament. We have been here multiple times and it never disappoints. The food is the extra mile and the beers are solid. There is a lot of things to do for kids there, and the service is always great. read more

Great place to stop by for a quick bite. The fried cauliflower was really good - it didn't feel super greasy and it was an all around great dish! Fries were done really well - I really liked the ailloli. I also enjoyed the Just Because - it was really tangy and paired well with the fried chicken sandwich. Bonus points for cleanliness, for having hand sanitizers on every table and for following COVID rules. There were also games and merch that you can get as well if you're planning on staying here longer, as well as their in house beers. read more

Made a pitstop here on our way to Toronto from NY. Love the vibe and ambiance. Staff were awesome and service was great. You just scan the QR code at your table to see the menu.

For a place with a smallish menu, they surprisingly accommodate vegetarians very well! Was very impressed with the offerings (food + beer). Agree with what others say about reading the whole menu, we definitely missed reading the last part but liked everything we ordered and still felt there were good options. The space is open and bright. There is a large patio space in the summer as well. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely recommend if you are in the area. I also forgot my scarf there and they kept it for me. Very nice! read more

Counterpart has a pretty decent beer selection with something for everyone. From lagers, to sours, stouts and a porter, it really enticed me. What Counterpart is known for by the locals is the food! I thoroughly enjoyed my brussels sprouts and the fried chicken sandwich! The flavors were well balanced and seasoned perfectly. Most people I spoke to were fond of their revolving daily menu that focuses on in season produce from local farmers. read more

Stopped in to kill some time after visiting some of the wineries in the area for taste the season. The beers were very good and all the food looked good (was way too full to try anything to eat). The service model with putting your sign up was unclear but idk if that's just a "we're not from around here" type thing. Nice spot! read more

Counterpart is great for the beer, the food, and the atmosphere. Love the design of this place. I found the beers here to be on the easy drinking side.

We went there for craft beer, and ended up staying for dinner. Out of the way location, in a kind of industrial area, but the brewery itself was wonderful. We ate outside, where they was a girl playing guitar. We had a flight, and then a couple of beers based on our favorites. The food was more than bar food, if not quite full on dinner food. But really hit the spot. Good Canadian favorites, and lots more. We loved it, and would go again if in the area. read more

Amazing food and beer! We tried the fried chicken sandwich which was perfectly crispy and well balanced with the other sandwich fillings. I also got the big pretzel which was golden brown fluffy perfection and came with not one but two dips (creamy cheese sauce and vinegary grainy mustard). They have an option to get a flight and try multiple beers which was great for a first timer like me. Service was friendly and efficient. This brewery is in an unassuming industrial plaza and has a modern/industrial look inside. Good ambiance, it was pretty busy for a Tuesday afternoon which I take as a great sign. Definitely worth trying. read more
