I've had their fish and chips in the past, which were meh compared to what I've experienced elsewhere, but that is where I will finish complaining and start complimenting for example the tacos here. They are amazing, as is the poutine, the onion rings, and the Smash burger--I got the Angry Sterling, which is a flavour explosion with delicious toppings. And the drink, the Toronto cocktail, was amazing--a strong enough flavour of whisky with just enough of the liqueurs to make it not sting going down. Oh, and I haven't spoken about the live music yet. There was a guy playing guitar who was taking requests, and--and I'm saying this as a person who isn't too big a fan of acoustic guitar music--was pretty good. His passion alone made me start to bop my head and tap my foot to the music. Oh, and I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the nice trails, beach, and a historic house in a neighbourhood that reminds me of the bridal path.

Last time it was an overcooked hot chicken sandwich and had run out of pop. This time I went for their house burger and fries. Burger overcooked slightly and I asked for no dill pickles, but found out I got them anyhow when I took a bite. Everyone looked rushed on this end of season heat wave that brought out a bunch of people. Washroom was clean. I will go again, hopefully they will get to a five star casual restaurant.

Was in Muskoka last week Thursday, so before driving home, stopped by Sawdust to grab some beers…read more I don't drink, so was actually picking up some for family and friends that I would be hosting for Thanksgiving weekend. I walked in and went straight to the fridges looking for a few that someone had requested. As there were so many options, initially I was having a bit of a struggle looking, but managed to find 1 type so grabbed a case and started loading it up. The staff working the counter came over to ask if I needed any help and so I let him know the ones I was looking for, which he pointed out to me. Once I filled the case, I carried it over to the counter and asked if I could leave it there for now. After I found the 3 types, I asked if there were any ciders or "easy drinks" to pick up for some of my other guests. He was very helpful in providing descriptions and recommendations! I had to grab another small case to hold the others that I ended up choosing. Once I was done, he cashed me out and also gave a small bag of chips (something about minimum spent & due to the ciders). As I had purchased basically a 2-4 plus 6, he asked if I needed help loading it in my car, which I said yes if he could. Good thing there is a free parking lot right by the entrance! Excellent experience here! Would love to visit again sometime for a dine-in to try their food as well!

We came to here because we'd tried their beer before and really enjoyed it, and we also read that…read morethe brewery was dog-friendly. So naturally, we brought our two little dogs and grabbed a spot on the patio. My wife and I both got beer flights, and we were really impressed with quite a few of the beers. We're pretty picky when it comes to sours, but the Cherry Cheesecake Sour and Guava Sour were standouts for us. Both were fantastic and easily some of our favourites of the flight. For food, I went with the Smoked Mac & Cheese. It was a little soupy underneath the top layer of cheese, but it still had an awesome smoky flavour, especially with the brisket mixed in. The BBQ drizzle was awesome and sweet too. Overall, I really enjoyed it. My wife got the Fish Tacos. She enjoyed the flavour, although she's had better fish tacos elsewhere. They became soggy pretty quickly, but she still liked them overall. Unfortunately, what really put a damper on our visit was an interaction involving our dogs. At one point, a couple with dogs came onto the patio. Our dogs barked as they walked by, and one of their dogs was also pretty reactive, which actually made us feel a little better because we knew we weren't the only ones dealing with that. However, we were later told by staff that we'd have to leave if our dogs continued barking. We've visited a lot of dog-friendly breweries and patios, and we've honestly never had this issue before. We completely understand that excessive barking can disturb other customers, and we're always responsible for our dogs, but being told we'd have to leave really rubbed us the wrong way, especially in a place that advertises itself as dog-friendly. What made it worse was that we immediately felt anxious and uncomfortable for the rest of our visit. Instead of being able to relax and enjoy our food, we felt like we had to rush through the rest of our meal because we were worried our dogs might bark again and we'd be asked to leave. It really wasn't a good feeling at all, and unfortunately it took away a lot of the enjoyment from what had otherwise been a nice visit. What's frustrating is that the staff themselves were actually very, very nice. I had a great conversation with one of the employees and have nothing bad to say about the people working there. It was specifically the handling of the dog situation that really disappointed us. If you're going to advertise yourself as dog-friendly, we feel there should be a reasonable expectation that dogs are going to...well, act like dogs sometimes. The beer was excellent, the food was good, and the staff were friendly, but unfortunately that interaction and the anxiety it caused for the remainder of our meal...brought our overall rating way down.
