This is a solid place to go for a pint. The location is great, with lots of shops to visit nearby and the dining area opens into a plaza where they were showing football and movies on a big screen set up for the summer. I was there on a day where they seemed to be understaffed, though. Our server was very nice and full of good recommendations, but had too many tables to keep up. I had a kolsch and the pickle chips. The pickles were tempura battered and surprisingly bland for vegetables that are soaked in brine. The dipping sauce and cold beer made up for it. read more

We visited this place during the holiday market so it was packed. There was a wait since it was a group of 8. They said it would be a 30 minute wait and that we would get a text. We got a text that our table is ready 30 mins later. However, when we checked in, our table was not ready. We waited for 5 minutes until another hostess approached us and she put our tables together. Once we were seated, we weren't even given any menus. It wasn't until 15 mins after that someone checked in on us since she asked if anyone has taken our order, to which we replied we haven't gotten any menus yet. She gave us a few minutes to look through the menu and took our drink orders then food order. We only ordered some appetizers to share. Our drinks took awhile, but once we got it, so did our food. My favorite was the dip trio with pita. Pro tip: mix the dip for some serious flavor explosion. read more

It's a good beer and they have really stepped up their variety since the last time I went, about 10-12 years ago. Beer is solid, and a welcome respite from walking around the distillery district. I got a flight and was pleased with everything, the stouts particular are sleepers. Folks at the bar were great, really helpful in terms of walking your through what you like and don't. read more

After Gord and I saw Fool for Love, we had an early supper at Mill Street Beer Hall. It was a warm sunny day so we sat at a shaded high-top on the patio. I ordered Fried Chicken. I have had creamed corn in about a hundred years and this was definitely not like the canned stuff I'd had as a kid ... the kernels were crisp and were in milk and onion. The stuffing was good, though I couldn't taste the sausage. The chicken were thighs and were tender and juicy. A little more gravy would have been nice. I'd get this again. Gord loves schitzel and ordered Chicken Schnitzel. He'd never had spätzle before and liked it. He enjoyed the schnitzel ... I had a bite and thought it was okay. To be, the star of the dish was the sausage ... it was delicious. He'd get this again. Sean was our server and he was friendly. read more

I came for a work event and it was held partitioned off at the back as well as part of the patio. The location in the distillery district is always good. I love the architecture and the juxtaposition with the rest of the city. The food that was provided was very average. I reckon that this depends on how much the company is willing to pay. There was a table of raw veggies with dip and bread/pita (I don't know since I didn't have any), another table of make your own tacos with the taco shells, choice of chicken or beef, topping such as tomatoes, lettuce and then salsa and guacamole. The last station had a cook re-heat macaroni along with spinach, spring onions, bacon and protein (sausage, chicken, etc) and mix it all with a cheese sauce. read more

We came here before the 3rd wave lockdown and sat on the patio. They allowed our little doggy to come dine with us and a few other tables had pets with them as well. Before entering, the screened us, took our contact information, and ensured that we lived in the same household. Once on the patio, the tables are spaces decently, with dividers were the 6 ft distancing was not possible. One thing was that there were large parties (8+ people) coming in after us that were trying to join tables, so I wasn't sure what the point of screening/ensuring same household in the beginning was. They had giant heaters spaced out around the patio, which was nice for warmth. We ordered 2 drinks, nachos, and wings. Drinks, food, and atmosphere were great! The bill came out to $60 plus tax, which is definitely pricey, but I guess being in the heart of downtown, that is normal. Food and drinks were are great - no complaints there! However, I will say service could be better. Bare minimum, nothing special. read more

It appears the reviews are mixed with the beer hall and restaurant (next door). I've lived in this city a long time, don't think I've been to DISTILLERY before. Interesting area, feels very touristy, expensive.. pint was $9.75, for Mill St!? It's their beer hall? Why not make the product more appealing (cheaper!), ends up being a ONE TIME VISIT. Prices are hijacked. Similar to an airport, taking advantage of the visitors. read more

On a hot summer afternoon we went to the bier hall for Schnitzel. We sat at the outdoor patio. Very clean and tables were well distanced. The schnitzel was a dinner meal and runs about $24. We got our meal and we were flabbergasted at the huge portion. The schnitzel was crispy and delicious with the mushroom gravy. The French fries underneath were buttery and scrumptious. You get a lot of food, so it's a good value for the money. This can easily be shared by two people. Beautiful day to enjoy a beer and schnitzel. Definitely try this and make sure you come hungry! read more

Had a super fun night here Friday night (just a couple days ago). My friend and I had just driven in from Rochester, NY, basically in a blizzard, and missed our 7 pm reservation by a whole hour. Our host where we were staying called on our behalf and they agreed to respect the reservation, so we walked in around 8 pm and were taken direct to our table in the bar. We had a great waitress, Bryn (?) who helped us pick beers for our flights, and provided extra details about the poutine that we each ordered as our entrees: the cheese curds are cold though the fries, gravy and brisket are hot....isn't that always how poutine is served?? We loved the very American roots-rock music selection played by the DJ, thought the noise level was acceptable, and enjoyed our conversation with Bryn, our beers and our meal. (The single serving of poutine is massive - enough for two people - and is super rich and totally decadent!) By the way, the beer flights come in 6 oz and 8 oz options, which we also appreciated, and the atmosphere was very lively and young. I would go back in the summer to enjoy the outdoor seating area. read more

Hmm, I wonder why this place isn't as highly reviewed as I thought. :/ My husband and I accidentally found this place back in December when we were in the Distillery District and our experience was great, so we decided to go back again. The restaurant is very spacious and has a bar area sectioned off in the back-ish with four TV monitors playing sports. The main dining area has a lot of tables that may feel intimate if you're sitting in a booth seat. When we first went in December, they also had seating outside with the bar open in front of the restaurant with the outdoor patio heaters. The food here is good (nothing that jumps out to you, but still good). When we went in December, we had a couple entrées and drinks. I don't remember anything special about the food, but I do remember the service was great. This time around, we tried the Dublin Nachos (St. Patrick Day's menu) with drinks. The Dublin Nachos are basically lattice cut (potato) fries with bacon, cheese, and kale. They weren't bad but extremely oily and so my husband and I ended up not finishing. :( I think it'd be interesting to see how this place is in the warmer months with cool beer and snacks. :) read more

Ohhhh yeahhh, great place that just screams of 'fall' to me, because it's warm, it's cosy and most of all BEER. Tried many of Mill St beers of course, Hopped and Confused has long been one of my favourites but it was good today to try some of the I guess seasonal flavours Radler- Rhuby Cove - Altbier - Tankhouse were the best ones today, the Rhuby Cove especially is kind of a 'treat' Definitely worth a visit for any beer fan but just worth going to in general for a good mix of a proper brewery and a sports bar in one...the food menu also has a great selection for anyone (obviously you got to get nachos) PS - standard beer flight is one 10$ for 4 which I think is really well priced! read more

Beer and Patio on a nice summer evening! I did not order any food, which I usually never eat at breweries and pubs. I might not be the #1 fan of Mills Street's products but it is good to see how a local brewery is getting so successful. There are quite a few beer seasonal on tap and even try their bierschnaps at 45% abv. Since I was sitting at the bar on the patio, I received fast and friendly service from the bartender. I definitely will be back for some more beer drinking on the patio when I am in the Distillery District. . read more

Mill Street Beer Hall is attached to the Brew Pub. Not really sure why they decide to separate into two different restaurants, but according to the website both places have different food menus. For this review I would be writing about the Beer Hall. The Beer Hall has a nice big patio,great for enjoying their nano-brewed beers. I was told that they recently revamped their food menu, and I thought the food was quite decent. The BBQ platter for 4 was excellent - with biscuits, sausages, ribs, beef brisket and beer-brined fries. If you were to choose only one thing from their menu, this would be on top of my list. The roasted cauliflower was great, as was the standalone brisket and elk burger. There is a vegetarian flatbread as well if you don't feel like having meat. Considering the location and the heavy presence of mid-high end restaurants inside the Distillery District, I think this is a great place for some casual eats and brews without breaking the bank. read more

On a cold, damp day, while visiting the Toronto Christmas Market, the flaming heaters on the patio seemed very inviting. We did, however, choose to sit inside. My guests, Floridians for most of their lives, were freezing! We were greeted and seated promptly and a server soon showed up with complimentary beer samples. Nice! Can we have seconds? Thirds? No? Darn! It was a nice touch. With dinner on our itinerary only four hours later, we chose to share a pizza and an order of perogies. Of course, we had to have a cocktail to warm up. The cocktails were good and the food was tasty but could have been served a little warmer. Overall, it was a good experience with nice ambiance and good service. read more

Located in the Distillery District in Toronto, a national historic site that combines dining and shopping among the remains of the Gooderham & Worts Distillery, this restaurant combines both an outdoor patio and a modern brewpub. Inside, on one end of the long restaurant, fans were cheering on the local team. On the other end, curtains closed off a private party. Curiously, the restaurant was only half full, for a Friday evening during the summer. We joined a dinner that was already in progress both hungry and exhausted. Most had not had dinner yet, instead had nibbled on a variety of appetizers before we arrived. So I was able to sample a charcuterie platter and enjoy a flavorful pâté (so good we scraped the jar clean) spread on crostini while catching up with family and deciding on the entrée. In the end, I liked the grilled swordfish, served with couscous and sautéed greens. It was both hearty and tender - not spicy, despite being marinated in Sriracha yogurt - and served with a thick and creamy peanut sauce. The separate order of fries was a plate of golden-brown deliciousness. Service was odd. When we requested a new fork to replace the one that dropped, we were given an obviously dirty (not semi-dirty or even "dirty if you look carefully" dirty) fork. read more

So glad to accidentally find the distillery district. After walking for an hour, an ice cold local beer sounded like the thing to have; however, we still wanted try poutine a local dish for any lover of the potatoes, and there dish was enough to share, but not too big where you thought it was dinner. We sat on the terrace in late August. I imagine that terrace will not be open for much longer. Service was great. read more

We came here on Valentines Day because we weren't on a date and no one in their right night would bring a valentine here so it wasn't busy. There were plenty of people working though, just not many patrons on a Friday night. Despite the staffing being on point, they literally could not have been less attentive. The service was slow and they were actually in eye sight of us but in their own worlds literally as if we weren't there. It was weird. The beer was pretty good. Poutine looked underwhelming and the fries were cold but gravy was actually really tasty. Overall, seems like a touristy spot with bad service. read more

Note: This review may not be as relevant since I wasn't a paying customer Our company had our summer event here in mid June. So different departments from our company can get together and socialize. My coworker and I got here early and enjoyed the seafood station and the cheese and meat platter, although we saw a few flies near the crab legs/mussels.... The oysters were fair and cheese and dried sausage were good. Their in house lemon earl grey beer was pretty good since I like something light. As for lunch we had two mains one is mini taco and one is Mac n cheese. We lined up and there's chefs that serve you to the tacos and Mac n cheese. We got to pick your ingredients.... The tacos was soso Cuz it's a bit dry and such a small ones that you can't wrap much inside.... But the Mac n cheese was good.... You can have different meats and sausages, asparagus, onions, etc. And he cooked in front of you... I had two bowls of it ;) Lastly there was a salad bar and desserts (donuts and icrecream sandwiches). Overall the food was average, venue was quite nice.... It was a warm and sunny day....such nice weather to be out on a Friday afternoon and I won one of our company's prizes.... Couldn't ask for more.... read more

This spot is good for some beer and some sun. I know you don't go to a brewery or pub for great food but when both the fries and sweet potato fries are soft and bland, it's not cool. I like my fries fried. The chicken on my salad was waaay too dry and the salad didn't have any dressing or taste to it. At least they have a good selection of beer and even various wines to choose from. The atmosphere is fun and I have nothing bad to say about the service, just wished they'd put a bit of effort into the food for the price point. read more

Walk past the the Mill Street Brew Pub from the main street, into the Mill Street Store and you will find the Mill Street Beer Hall right across from the entrance. It is a deceptively large space, as it spans all the way to the back and there are plenty of long tables for patrons. It's cosy and inviting during the winter and there is plenty of patio space outside during the summer months. We came on a Friday night after taking in the LightFest and immediately found a table even though the pub next door was full with a 30 min wait list. The beer menu is extensive and the servers are very helpful in choosing if you get overwhelmed. The smoked brisket burger was good, meat was tender and well seasoned. Fries were demolished also. Don't get stuck on the wait list for the pub, come here instead! read more

Was difficult locating entrance as it is only steps away from Mill Street tasting room and bar. Has way more seating avail with free samples offered of their latest seasonal tap. Server was prompt, friendly, and efficient. Was not pleased with dipping sauces for pretzel since the cheese tasted like butter with parmesan on it, and dijon mustard was a bit salty. Beet salad was nicely presented and flavorful. Pours are decent and beers samples were good. Overall ok. read more

I live in the west end, so I *never* go out in the Distillery District, but a networking event brought me here. Such a great area to show off the city to visitors and from here on out I plan to make like a tourist and journey down here a bit more often! And what can I say? I love me a good brewpub and Mill Street always delivers ... it's got the comfort and casual vibe of a pub with the elevated dining experience of a restaurant. I've been to another Mill Street spot before but I think the menu has been upgraded since then. I was delighted to see they've added a Beyond Meat burger to the menu. It's not the same as the A&W version (not that I *ever* go there or anything ...), but delicious nonetheless, and just as confusing to my vegetarian brain. I even had to ask our lovely server if it really was vegetarian! Got a salad instead of fries (ugh, I know right) which was an improvement from your average side house salad. I wasn't drinking this time but I can attest from previous experiences that these guys know what they are doing in terms of beer. You can't really go wrong, but why not get the flight to give yourself a little tasting tour and then decide from there! read more

We came here on a lazy Monday afternoon for lunch, and it was not busy, but surprisingly not empty. Hosts are a little slow and lazy too, but servers were on point and super friendly and personable. The food was impeccable. All the ingredients were whole and fresh, and everything promised in the menu descriptions was included in full! I had a perfect cobb salad, and my friend had fish and chips. The salad had real pieces of bacon, half an avocado, real blue cheese, crisp cucumbers and tomatoes, full eggs, and steak cooked to a perfect medium rare. The fish and chips were hot and fresh! The flights are fun to try, and they have different rotating seasonal ones. While this place definitely remains consistent with the distillery district price tag, the ambience is nice, and the food and service is good. Definitely a nice place for an indulgence meal. read more

The service was terrible. I stood in front of 3 ladies working waiting for give my name and they didn't acknowledge me once. Worse of all, they actually looked at me, and walked right past me like I didn't exist. When I finally had to call out to them, and make my non-existent body a reality, they took my number and told me to wait 10-15 min. After waiting 50 min and asking twice what position I was in, one rudely told me, "you just have to wait". I went to ask the front and I had been skipped over multiple times until I had to complain to the manager. They finally gave me a seat and as I was walking, I saw 9 other seats for 2 people open. Yet I was standing out in the cold for 50 minutes when there was a huge waiting room on the other side. Worst service I have encountered in a while. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. read more

Love it here! They had me a "free" . But in all honestly, it's an amazing spot where you get to try decent sized samples of beer, which comes in handy so when you're ready to sit down and order, you know for certain which beer you want to go with. It's actually convenient so when you inevitably have to wait for a seat, you can try some beer you normally wouldn't have. Service was good and fast so I'll be back. read more

Came here for dinner Sunday after checking the Christmas Market. Apparently there are two Mill Street restaurants, they told us this "Beer Hall" one is more German style food, while their other "Mill St Brew Pub" is more pub/bar type food. We decided to go for this one. I will echo on some of the other reviews in that their service isnt the greatest. The waiter did not seem interested in serving us. His mood worsened when we asked for just water first before deciding on any drinks. At the end, when we asked for the visa machine, he didnt acknowledge he had heard us, so obviously we asked again and he said in a non-caring rude manner "Yeah I got it". Thanks? The food here is A-OK hence they are really 3 stars but minus one for service. Elk burger was good, duck fat fries served semi-cold, and the curry chicken on greens lacked chicken (fried chickpeas were amazing though). Wouldn't come back unless other restaurants in the distillery district have long wait times. Recommend Clunys nearby if you want some good fushion French cuisine which also isn't much more expensive. read more

Not a great experience at Mill House. Firstly was told the table would be avialable in 30-40 mins. It took 1hr 10mins. Once in, we were given one menu between two to share!? when we pointed this out and asked for a 2nd menu it didn't arrive. I went looking for one... Once the food arrived, my wife's meal was cold. Disappointing. The waitress took it away and addressed it by asking what we would like to happen as it would take 30 mins for a replacement. Only real option was to wait the additional time. It took 40 mins for the meal to arrive. We werw told the kitchen was busy and orders were stacked up. No urgency to address the issue. So we begrudgingly ate our main courses separately :-( The new meal was warm however not hot as expected... We had to request water a few times also and the empties on our table were not cleared away! Overall, we were disappointed with the food and service. We appreciate the place was busy considering it was a Saturday. However, we expected more with less attidue and more care for customer service. Doubt we will go back to this place. read more

Came here for the Toronto Christmas Market and stopped for a late lunch. It was very busy and we had to wait about 25 mins to get a table, but once we were seated there was prompt service. I had the steak ponzu bowl. Beware of this dish it is extremely spicy, and it's cold not hot. I asked for no chilies and it was still way too spicy, I sent it back. Got the mac & cheese instead, it was really yummy! The waitress was great, she took the other dish off our bill and rushed my mac & cheese. Great service. My mother in law was having a hard time deciding on what to get as she is celiac, but when she asked a question about a menu item the server immediately said "Do you want the gluten free menu?" My mother in law was so relieved. Again great service. read more

I get the feeling that a lot of people downvoting this place are way too snooty when it comes to expectations. While the Beer Hall may not set the world on fire, I found my experience there last night to be great across the board. Sure, there are a few minor quibbles, but I judge restaurants and businesses based on a combination of factors. That a restaurant may have overpriced food is a minor point if the location, service and ambiance makes up for it. My friends and I were searching for a restaurant in the Distillery District when we happened upon this place. Faced with some ridiculous wait times to get into some of the other restaurants (2 hours? REALLY?), we settled for a 45-minute waitlist and loitered around for a friend to show up. It became clear that it was worth the wait as soon as we got inside. I will point out that while some of the food may be overpriced, I've been to plenty of restaurants (including two days ago, as of this writing) that try to charge upwards of $30 just for apps, so having entrees that run from $20-40 is not surprising in the least. Everyone was well taken care of, and despite the concerns I've read here about the service, our waiter was a helpful individual who even put up with us switching seats on occasion (throwing the delicate numbering system he had for each diner out of whack). After all, this is the Distillery District. You're paying to sit in a heritage site, just down the street from Soulpepper Theatre (shout-out to my boy William Webster). It's just part of the area. I ended up going for the Raspberry Lemonade ($9) and the Hopped-Up Mac'n Cheese ($14). The portion sizes are big, and the lemonade is deceptively strong - I was feeling extremely buzzed even after sipping it. Don't shotgun that one. The Mac'n Cheese was impressively messy, and I soon understood why they serve it with a spoon. It's incredibly difficult to scoop the long pasta noodles out with a fork. The garlic butter biscuit it was served with tasted stale, though I'm not sure if it was intended to be that way or it had sat out too long. My friends had a mix of flatbreads and salads, and all reported them to be excellent. I also had the chance to try some of the peach cider, which was also deceptively strong. It tastes like iced tea but is much more powerful than it lets on. This may quickly become a favored destination in the Distillery if the staff can keep the quality of service as high as they did last night. The experience was great overall, and I've been left with lingering memories of the pleasant atmosphere as the sun set and the great times with friends. The Beer Hall is well worth a look if you're in the area. read more

I went here for a Yelp Secret Supper event. While I loved the atmosphere and the company, I found the food was decently tasty, but it wasn't anything out of this world. App: Fish taco - I liked the overall flavour of it as it was a bit tangy and it smelt great, but I think the fish was slightly overcooked. 2.5/5 Entree: Pasta and a large short rib. The short rib was delicious as it was fall off the bone and the pasta was hand made as well. Not too shabby 3.5/5 Dessert: I'm not a big sweets fan, but these were absolutely delicious. Three medium sized deep fried donuts topped with lots of sugar and a raspberry sauce (I think) below it and on the side was some fruits dipped in chocolate. Amazing. 5/5. So overall, food was 3.6/5. As for the service, J.P. was a great server and had good interaction with the group. So 4/5 for that dude. The atmosphere, while it looked nice, I found that sound traveled too much and it was too loud so it was hard to hold a good conversation. It could have been the overall crowd's fault, but still, way too loud for me. 2.5/5 This averages out to 3.3/5 and I would say this is a good place to come for drinks if you are in the area. read more

We only came for drinks as Mill Street brews some ok beers and since I had some out of towners with me I thought the distillery district was a good place to hit up. This hall/bar/restaurant has a really good vibe. They have some long tables that can seat up to 10 or more and they have several of them so big groups here shouldn't be a problem. There's pipes going from what looks like to be a brewing type mechanical thing to the taps. I didn't ask about them and now I sort of regret it. Besides that our server brought us a sample of some spicy seasonal brew they had but I just went with the old trusty Tankhouse. There are a good variety of beers to be had here and while we didn't order anything to eat I wouldn't be afraid to try at a later date. We had plans to eat elsewhere and we were only around for the beer this time around. This place has been around for about 2.5 years so I was told. I haven't been to the distillery district in ages... I would have remembered this part. read more

2.5 + 0.5 for awesome service Came here for dinner while visiting the Christmas Market. Come for the drinks and apps, stay away from the entrees if you can. Pros: Plenty of seats Service was awesome Cons: Food was meh at best Food is pricey for what you get This was the one place that didn't have a 2+ hour wait time for seats while we were at the Christmas market. Maybe we should of taken that as a sign. The place has plenty of seats. It's always massively busy during the Christmas Market so plan accordingly if you come here during that time. There is plenty of spacing though, which is a great thing if you have children. We came with 4 other families totaling 7 children and we were sat very well with plenty of room for the strollers as well. When it comes to this place, I would recommend you stick with the drinks and the apps. They were all pretty good and well done. As for the entree food, I was less than impressed to say the least. My GF ordered a flat bread and I had the Arctic Char entree. The flat bread was passable at best but my char was very disappointing. I got 2 little pieces about the size of a Doritos chip. There were about 6 potato balls and some twigs pretending to be a salad. There were some candied bacon bits and they were unfortunately the best part of the dish. The knockout blow comes from the $26 price, ouch. I could go to a HK Style cafe or Hakka restaurant and feed about 3 people for the same price. This places saving grace is the service. We had the most awesome waitress ever. She was nice, funny, helpful and just and overall great person. She really seemed like she loved being there and passed on the good vibes to everyone around. She was an all around treat to deal with. I didn't enjoy my meal at all, but she definitely softened the blow. I totally recommend this place for drinks. If you want dinner though, I would say only if you absolutely must. read more

My friends and I were visiting Toronto from Miami, and we received multiple recommendations from locals to try Mill Street. We ended up staying HOURS, and we loved it. We had some trouble telling where the brewery, beer pub, and beer hall end, so I apologize if I'm confusing places in my description! We started out getting a table for dinner, but when the server informed us that the last brewery tour was set to start in 15 minutes, we got our nachos to go and ran into the tour! The tour was really interesting -- if you've ever done a tour at a large brewery like Budweiser, you may find it really impressive how a small brewery does the process. We learned all about it, from Maggie, who said it was her last day. So sad --- she was amazing! Then we were ushered into the Beer Hall for our flights, included in the $10 for the tour! We got 4 small-but-not-that-small glasses of different beers, which were each explained one at a time. My personal favorite was the ginger one, but they were all great. We also purchased an IPA after that Maggie had recommended that had something like 3-4 times the usual amount of hops! It was tasty and not as bitter as I expected. We had a different server at our next table, who we occasionally had to flag down. Food-wise, we got the duck wings (so saucy and delicious) and a watermelon salad (very refreshing!). Afterward, we wandered back into the gift shop, where we inquired about the pint glass that the menu states comes with the tour. Maggie told us that that wasn't correct, so we purchased some souvenirs in the store. I thought things were really nicely priced. I got a Mill Street tee for my husband, and a tank that was on sale for $6 for me! We also bought a Seasonal Sampler 6-pack to go. Overall, we had a great time. I would recommend the tour!! read more

I have dined here twice and both times was underwhelmed with the food. I liked the concept of the beer hall, just really felt like the items were overpriced for what you got. The first time I went with my parents and one of my younger brothers. The atmosphere was fun, and the beer flights are great to try a selection of various beers. We ordered fondue to share and duck wings. The fondue was tasty but you really didn't get too many dippable items with the cheese, by the end we had way more dip than pieces of food. I enjoyed the duck wings even though I am not a "wing" person (I know, that is blasphemous but I no care lol). I liked the crispiness of the wings and the sticky sauce was tasty. My main was a seared pickerel (?) and was just meh. In both visits, I must add our servers were perfectly polite but each time they disappeared close to the end of the meal as it seems this place is slightly understaffed at times. I would say this place is better to drink at then enjoy food, for me anyway. read more

Distillery district is what hipster dreams are made of and to make it even better, it had the mill street beer hall! The packed restaurant sat our group of three adults and a child immediately. There was pups everywhere, I was in heaven. Canadas drinking age is 18/19 but the guy still hesitated when he checked my ID. Trust me, I look 16 but I'm 22, I promise... It took a while for my beer and my sisters wine to come out but once it did it paired deliciously with our app pretzel. I ordered the Belgium wheat and my brother ordered the IPA. The IPA blew my beer away. What stole the show was the food! So amazing. The steak frites was a bit over cooked but I didn't complain cause it was amazing. The fish and chips was perfectly battered and crisp and the chicken pot pie was out of this world. I would recommend all of it tbh. Loved it and I'll be back to try other beers!! read more

(Catered event) MUST TRY: Sliders Recommended: Taco station I don't remember much of the menu, but the sliders were fantastic. Most sliders are too dry, but these had larger patties and were more moist than normal. Excellent option. Taco station was tasty, and allowed guests to customize to their preferences. On the downside, it was very messy at times. I don't remember the rest of the appetizers, but they were good too. The servers were attentive and friendly. The food was much better than I expected. read more
