Our table tried a bunch of food and everything was very good. Specifically, the Reuben pizza was excellent with a ton of cheese and a nice amount of meat, pickles, kraut, and sauce. The club sandwich was quite tasty as well with big chunks of chicken and some bacon on nice bread, and the side of poutine was huge and very good. The coconut cream pie was a huge slide of very creamy and tasty pie!

We split a Montreal smoked meat sandwich. Extremely tender smoked meat with great rye/pumpernickel bread. Loved the homemade fries. Even though the patio is adjacent to the parking lot and near busy streets, the traffic noise was not noticeable.

This brew pub has excellent beer of every type. From farmhouse to saison, extra pale to stout, I…read moredon't think there's a single bad one. The take away cans are only 12oz but I prefer to drink the draft there. Food menu is a bit limited but you're probably not here to eat. I don't get a political vibe from the establishment, which is nice for a change.

The location of this brewery was great while I was in the area. It's a little tucked away on a…read morecorner so you can look right past it if you aren't looking closely. It was a rainy and dreary day so no one could sit outside and there's somewhat limited seating indoors. I ordered an IPA and a margharita pizza. My beer was good and the pizza may need a little slat but the service was fantastic. The bar maids and servers were so good about keeping my water full and gave me extra napkins - it's the little things, ya know? I messed up the til machine when closing my tab, but the server handled it swiftly and helpfully.

This place is conveniently located near the movie theater. We were promptly greeted and seated, and…read moreour energetic server gave us plenty of time to order. While we waited for our food, I admired the exposed brick walls and other details of the restaurant. On the main floor, there's a private room that can seat up to 30. Just called ahead to reserve, and there's no $ minimum. There's a variety of seats. The majority seems to be high top height. Personally, I prefer a regular table and chair height, so next time I will ask for that choice. Our house salad and bacon smash burger came out lightening fast. The food plus the beer were ok.

For a brewery, I could not believe that they did not have a better selection of beer. The food was definitely better than the beer and the service was good. The ministry was a nice wide open space.

The inside is decorated with beautiful art and has an assortment of graffiti art in the bathroom stalls. We ordered dinner and a few drinks. The food was delicious and piping hot when it was delivered. Both the brews I tried were tasty, the pale amber I tried a little hopsier than I enjoy but the pale ale was light and refreshing. The wait staff worked as a team and we really didn't see "our waiter" much but had a group of people who'd come by to check on us.

Tables are nicely spaced and not on top of one another. Very friendly server (sorry, didn't catch her name, but she's originally from Sao Paulo).

2.5 stars, could have been a 3. Service was cheerful and attentive. Honestly, our waitress was…read moresweet so no harsh feelings. I've been to a 3 Brasseurs before, and I knew what I was getting myself into. Think chain restaurant, aka sysco in terms of food. It's honestly not the best food, but small kids and 6 dollar kids menu, I mean, you can't beat that on Sparks. It was hot out and I was feeling a tad light headed and starving, so I wanted something starchy and heavy, so I ordered the poutine. It was basically their standard shoe string fries (most likely frozen from a bag and not cut in house) topped with a light gravy and cheese curds! I mean at least they used curds right? It was probably the top 3 more laughable poutines that I have had, but still edible. The hubby ordered some sausage and sauerkraut dish. I ate a lot of his sauerkraut. It was good. Kids meals were decent, but again served with the shoe string fries that the kids barely touched. Actually they barely finished their meals (one mac and cheese bites the other chicken fingers) It did come with a drink and dessert though. The highlight was the giant pretzel that we shared at the table. I'd recommend that. It was delicious and a show stopper, especially with the mustard dipping sauce. We sat on the patio which was pretty quiet on a Sunday. Restaurant inside was empty. I did use their bathroom on the second floor. It was clean, but smelled of urine. The restaurant inside had some wear and tear and a strange smell as well. Glassware served was dirty but I am sure if I brought it up it would be rectified. I might go back for the pretzel and some apps and sit on the patio for some cheap eats, but I am in no rush.

The wooden tables and decor give it a really nice vibe. The beer and food are ordered separately. The bartender was really nice and gave good insight into their beers and their specials. My wife and I each ordered a pint. The marzen was great, it was nice to have as it is generally hard to find this beer style. I can't recall the other beer we got but it was a bit higher abv, but still had malty flavor. The food was a hit too. We got the pretzel and the schnitzel platter. I was a bit confused by the cranberry, but it worked really well with the meat. It was a pretty large portion, perfect for sharing. We opted for the salad instead of fries, and it was a good choice. Fresh greens and lightly dressed, perfect on a hot day. The schnitzel was well cooked, nice and tender for the most part, though the ends were a bit over cooked and chewy. Mixing the lemon and cranberry on it was delightful, but the schnitzel was quite good on its own. The person cooking was really friendly and made sure we were taken care of.

We also shared some pierogies and they were standard fare. Service was quick and friendly.

We started with the maple Sriracha wings ($21) It comes with carrots and celery pieces with a little dip (not sour cream). We placed an order for ribeye steak. You get to pick two side sides, which a lot of of them are very interesting, and you get one choice of sauce. I personally picked the mashed potato and loaded potato. I know potato heaven. I ordered it my steak med/rare it came out like perfection. Very decent steak to be honest, I was really surprised. One thing I need to say is that the table, was very sticky and still had food from the previous clients.

Fries were hot, crispy and well seasoned. My fave.. Crispy Cowboy. The burgers are half off on Weds for $12. Wine, half off. Nick, we always have him serving us - great guy. Funny and cute. It gets loud as the night goes on but a lot of parties happen here for golf, birthdays, retirement, etc. Can't wait to come back. You can't go wrong no matter what you order here. Ambiance and lighting are great. I just make sure I'm out of there by 830pm or so to leave the space for the young guns and the unforgettable, mechanical bull.
