I saw on Instagram they were pet friendly which is always a plus and that they had FOOD! Nice interior and a lot of seating and a Patio out front. The owner was nice and I tried a flight of beers which is the best way to try out a variety without committing to a pint of one! I got the Smoll which is a newer brew, the Petit Duchesse, Roller Beast and Kraken. My favs were the Kraken and Smoll. They were all great but I would definitely get those again! Service was quick and friendly. In the back they have Pattersons Pizza making Neapolitan style pizza. I was surprised they were there! I originally tried their pizza at a Markham Dog Alliance event and was excited to try another pizza. The pizza is very much a tradition Neapolitan style pizza, reminded me of the pizza I had in Naples. The sauces, the thin crust, chewy and yummy and the delectable cheese and pepperoni was a nice balance to the variety of brews I enjoyed. Ian the chef, really loves what he does! Very passionate chef and enjoyed the friendly chat! A random find, a random afternoon, overall a wonderful day! Worth checking out!! I will return!!!

My dear friend and I met up in Ajax on Saturday. It's midway between our homes in Peterborough and…read moreMarkham, respectively. We were at the box stores, saw this LCBO, and walked in. I had a rough week last week. I ended up soothing my frustration consuming a few alcoholic drinks on Thursday night. I wanted more! I wanted to check out the latest new flavour, watermelon, from Cottage Springs vodka coolers. I thought that I didn't need a basket. I found my watermelon vodka coolers and grabbed a couple of cans. I then found Georgian Bay smashed tea and vodka smash cans, and picked up a couple. At the back of the store, a cheerful woman was dishing out samples of cabernet sauvignon and chardonnay. She asked how I was. I said that I felt like a clown juggling cans of cooler, which made her laugh. My friend is a keeper. She went looking for a couple of baskets for us. She saved the day and my arms when I loaded all my cans into one of them. I sampled the cabernet sauvignon first. It was so good. It had hints of blackcurrant (love!) and blackberries. Both my friend and I sampled the chardonnay. It was light and crisp. As much as I loved both, I went with my first love, the cab, and grabbed a carton, which is recyclable. I then wanted to see if I could get sangria in a can. A helpful customer overheard me and pointed out the cans for me. Nice! I got the white sangria. I swiped my Air Miles card and paid for my goods with my debit card. I was so happy with my purchases. I got everything in a trusty brown paper bag and we both walked out with our goodies. I like this store. I'd come back here again for more alcoholic beverages. (175)

As well as a dozen or so draught beers, there's a fridge with another varied selection of cans to either drink on site, or to take away. There's a small food menu that offers decent bites, but this is not the place to come for a full on pub dinner. I would appreciate a greater selection of non-alcoholic drinks, but that's a minor gripe. What makes me happy is the no nonsense, everyone is welcome sign ensuring that no matter who you are, your race, colour, sexual orientation etc, you are welcome. And bigotry against such will never be tolerated.

Bowmanville? We drove all way looking for Manantler Craft Brewing. And It was definitely worth the…read moredrive here. Small craft brewery that is passionate with beers always fun to visit: to taste the beer, to talk to the brewers and of course to buy some beers! Manantler is located at the back and the basement of an industrial building. The entrance is hidden and small. But the brewery and taproom itself is well set up. The star though is their beers!!! Amazing beers both on taps and bottles. Wakatu-Me Nugget Lollihop Liquid Swords IPA Love their Single Hop Pale Ale with a lot of character. A lot of interesting beers, please check Facebook for what's available. Of course a beer tasting experience won't be complete without a knowledgeable beer geek behind the bar to talk beers with Trevor. Every beer here is a work of love and art: beer, awesome beer labels artwork and even their catchy names! I can't wait to try out more beers fro Manantler soon...

I was a bit disappointed that we had a Groupon for 4 beer flights but for some reason we were only allowed to have 3 tastes per flight. We watched others receive 4 beers per flights so I guess that is what you get when you buy Groupon to try out new breweries. The beers for some reason all tasted very similar. Makes me wonder if they do a kit brew or we just tasted at a bad time. I give 3 stars mostly because of the decor and the atmosphere this place has. Kid friendly, games and cool art. Good mix of music playing. I can see a lot of fun things this brewery can do.
