The pretzel with mustard was OUTSTANDING. Should have bought more than one!! We enjoyed our first poutine, bratwurst, steak, burger, and it was very convenient to the CN Tower.

Great beer in a great location! Located right in downtown Toronto close to Ripley's, the CN Tower and the Rogers Centre. The train yard attached is really interesting and a great place to entertain the kids. They have outdoor seating, and indoor, along with a small gift shop. HIGHLY recommend.

Visited Toronto as part of a tour of Canada and especially liked this location in Roundhouse. Only one beer available on our visit but lovely and pleasant outdoor seating area.

The food was great, but a bit expansive for fries and hotdogs.
The location is great, right at the foot of the CN Tower and next to the Aquarium.

Planning on taking a tour on a weds or Thursday. Do you recommend we buy tickets before hand? We have no specific time we want to go so I thought it may be easier just to show up and take the next available tour. There will be 2 of us.
Hey! best bet is to book ahead of time, our tours sell out very quickly! Head to our website and head to the tour info section.

Do you allow strollers or stroller parking? Or should we plan to carry the baby! Thanks
Hey! No problem leaving the stroller down in our store while on a tour. There is a few sets of stairs so you will need to carry the baby if you take the tour.

Hey Alicia, are you referring to the tour? We charge $12.00 per person for a half hour guided tour with a bottle of beer and a sample afterwards, if you have children we don't charge for children 12 and under, shoot me an email if you have any further questions of if there is anything I can help with, my contact info is on our website.

Do I need to buy tickets online? Or I can get them in box office?
Hey there, we highly recommend that you do purchase the tickets on our website as we are in a very busy season and our tours sell out every day. Head to our website and go under the tour info section and purchase from there!
