You have the opportunity to go to the restaurant, the hockey rink, tour of the estate, wine tasting classes, and also the cocktail making class. I chose the cocktail making class, and I was highly pleased with the 45min session. The presentation was fun and informative. I like the fact the majority of the ingredients used to make the 3 cocktails are sourced at the Winery/Distillery itself. The cocktails do change every 6 months, so what you may see on their Yelp page maybe different than what you may make. After the class you receive the recipes for the 3 drinks as well as a coupon to be used towards your purchases at their store.

The domestic beer selection was great, the pork belly was absolutely melt-in-your-mouth delicious, and the poutine was everything you hope it will be.

To top it all off, our bartender was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome throughout our visit. If you're in the Niagara area and looking for great food, cold beer, and excellent service, I definitely recommend checking out Blind Pig. We'd happily come back on our next trip!

I've been meaning to try Tangerine Tortoise for a while and I live near it so we walked in and did a quick 20-minute stroll around the block while they made our pizzas. What stopped me from trying it in the past was the abundance of great pizza chains in St. Catharines. St. Catharines has amazing food places with unique appeal if you ever want to try them. I actually frequent Score Pizza, Twice the Deal Pizza, and Fat Cat when I'm craving a certain type of pizza depending on the situation. I have had a lot of great pizza around the Niagara region from Fat Cat's to Di's and plenty of others. They all have their own appeal but there is just something about the taste the menu and the overall vibe here that puts The Tangerine Tortoise at the top for me. We ordered the spicy pineapple and the prosciutto with pistachio nuts and both were amazing. My favorite was the spicy pineapple because of the hot honey glaze on top. It added the perfect kick and sweetness. What's cool about Tangerine Tortoise is how it's inside an old repair shop and it's hard to tell it's a restaurant unless you know. It's also in the middle of a neighborhood which I think cities should allow more residential restaurant mix because it adds to the community appeal. As a St. Catharines local I absolutely love it and my sister coming in from the GTA loved it just as much.

Silversmith was such a good choice for a brewery to visit in the Niagara wine region. I'd been…read morewanting to try poutine for quite a while, and though it was available when I lived near Detroit, I never trusted that I was close enough to Quebec for it to be good. I decided maybe Virgil was close enough to try it, and oh my goodness - I understood at once why poutine is so popular. If you also hail from a poutine-less area of the world, fear not - done well, it's a great dish. The beer was also excellent. I can see why The Black Lager is Canada's most award-winning Schwarzbier. There are some really good schwarzebiers in my city, and Silversmith's is right up there with them. I also have a Nut Brown Ale, and a small size of the Motueka, both of which I would get again. They know what they are doing with their food and drink. And the atmosphere is really good as well. The old-church-turned-brewery is beautiful. I'll let the pictures in other reviews do it justice. The service was good. It was relatively busy the night I was there, but the service was still quick enough and even a bit conversational - I recall one of the bartenders worked at Silversmith in the warmer months, and travels southeast Asia in the colder months, which is pretty cool. I would likely be a regular if I lived in the area.

This spot is located in a cute little village and there were a few other local bars and restaurants within walking distance.

There was nothing wrong with them, just our preference. Service was fine.

He had to try it since we are down Philly! We said overall it was good. We enjoyed a few beers as well. We are glad we stopped in and might be in again while here for the week!

I understand that real estate is at a premium, but this the smallest LCBO I've seen in Ontario! The other reason not to come here is that they have such limited hours!

The LCBO is the local wine, beer and liquor store in Canada. On a recent trip to…read moreNiagara-on-the-Lake, this is where our group stocked up on all our wine/beer needs. It's a bright and clean store with great organization and help is available if needed. They take US dollars (giving you CA change) too, which was incredibly convenient for me since it was a pre money conversation stop. Wine and liquor is kept in the front of the store, with a convenient chilled wine selection as well. I wandered back to the "beer cooler" to find an impressive selection and was able to pick up a variety of local cans. Most craft beers are sold individually in large 473 mL aluminum cans. You'll pay for the beer as well as a $.10CA deposit (FYI: this location does not refund the deposit fees!) I felt pretty lucky to strike up a conversation with an employee who was able to recommend some great options and was very welcoming. Whether you're looking to party in up with friends, bring a couple drinks back to your house (or hotel room) or have a picnic in the park, the LCBO is your best bet for stocking up. Do note, the hours are limited compared to US liquor store hours, staying open the latest on Thursday and Fridays, and that's only until 8pm. I highly recommend grabbing some wine here and some cheese at Cheese Secrets around the corner and heading over to Simcoe Park for a picnic.
