Visited November 2, 2012. Why do I keep coming back here? Well, it’s close to where I work, and I keep hoping "it’ll be better this time". On this day, I decided to take notes and give it the drubbing it deserved, but to be fair, it’s not a terrible place. Just not all that special, as other reviewers here have noted. It’s a huge two-level dark wood & brick room, packed for a Friday lunchtime, and my server Emily was very pleasant. There was no feeling of this solo diner being ignored. The nachos here were nicely baked, but what about onion rings that come with a plastic packet of "Honey Spread" - what’s THAT all about? And what about those copper kettles sitting over there? I began with the 6% seasonal Munich beer - their take on Oktoberfest - served in a tall pint glass. It was fresh, cold and had that hint of an indescribable gassy taste and odour that is in every beer I’ve ever had here. The Oktoberfest, by virtue of having less of it than their White, Blonde, Amber or Brown suds, is the best-tasting of the batch. Next up was a small sized Harvest Ale. At 5.8% and "created from 100% Ontario-grown hops", it was the Beer of the Month for November. It was definitely darker in colour than its portrait on the table display indicated, but I can say that it was relatively tasty and pleasant. The seasonals are, in my experience, far superior to the regular beers brewed here. I finished off with a 6.2% "Dense, delicately bitter" Amber, which signalled a return to the Gassy Side. This is a loud room, and large screen videos featured Fat Boy Slim, Selena Gomez, and, yikes, Shania Twain. It’s not an essential stop for beer fans in Toronto, but if you’re keen to see the "That Don’t Impress Me Much" video from way back when after you are done visiting the Eaton Centre across the street, then come in and enjoy yourself.

Was here when I was just getting into craft beer. Busy, commercial place but considering the other business-oriented places around it wasn’t bad at all. Their beers were okay, nothing special, and prices were in line with the neighbourhood. Service was good though, friendly and professional. Overall a nice decor and service but it won’t get a beer lover very excited.

Chain brewpub but done very nicelly. Grreat interior design. This place is usually busy but service I had was mostly very good. Solid proces , good food. Underrated due to stigma of 3 Brasseurs.

Check it ot with my father and brother within a few months of it opening. Ive been to a few in montreal so i knew waht to expect. Same tacky decor, but they are pretty consistant for good service. Typical pedestrian beers, and the food is so so. I had the pigs feet and they were quite good, the food is decent, but its not goi g to win any awards. The kind of place in my mind, you go once, and you dont need or think of going back.

More for eating than having a good pint of beer. 4 own brews available. Quite expensive. No a/c (or broken) so it was pretty hot in there.

2010-06. Visited on a sunny Thursday afternoon last June, my family and I enjoyed lunch and a few of their brews on tap to celebrate the end of the school year. The building is enormous, based in an old factory (there are a bunch of old artifacts found during renovations that are on display in the entrance), with several floors of seating and an overall feel of a lofty sports bar. Location is wonderfully central to the city, just a short hike from other nearby good beer bars, across the street from the Eaton Centre, and around the corner from Ryerson University. Food was tasty and service was quick and friendly, knowing the schpeel for their offerings. We tried their four main brews, all solid but generally average, thus making knocking it down a few notches on the places to visit if you’re in the area. A nice experience, would return with friends and an occasion to gather. (Have returned several times since then to try some seasonals, which were more interesting than the regular offerings.)

Not much selection as far as beer, they had one good strong ale on tap in February. Not a bad place but not a beer destination.

seems like a corporate chain that is trying to get away by being on Yonge street. The beers are mid level and the food is very basic.

Corporate brewpub. Staff don’t know much about the beer and aren’t interested in the beer. Very loud space too, even though it wasn’t all that busy when I was in. The seasonal I had was actually pretty tasty, but the range of beer is quite small. You can do a whole lot better than this spot in less than a ten minute walk from the area.

Nice decor, you can only really purchase their beer here, it is decent beer and I would drink again and go again, it has a nice bar to go sit at, good place
