There's tables outside for patio dining - but I opted to stay inside. Staff were welcoming and friendly. I asked for recommendations as it was my first time here, and wanted to get a flight. The server made great recommendations based off of what I liked (fruity, strong flavours) - and I really enjoyed the ones I got. There were many different food options as well. I ordered a Mac n cheese and it was absolutely perfection. Flavours were great, and portion was big. I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for good drinks and food.

A friend and I went on a guided tour of Brock St Brewery, located in the heart of downtown Whitby…read more Our guide, the son of one of the owners, took us through the facility on a very informative tour, explaining the entire process of brewing their beverages. BTW, in addition to their beers, they also make gin and vodka, all on site! It was all very interesting! Our tour ended in their third floor lounge, a gorgeous and intimate space, where we sampled a flight of their beer. They were all good! This lounge also hosts live entertainment, including music, workshops, and other events. Whether you have an interest in beer, or not, the tour was very interesting and the facility was very impressive! Check them out and then grab a bite to eat at 12welve Bistro, located in the same facility.

We arrived around noon and were served by a polite young man that admitted he had not yet tried everything on offer. There was a good selection on tap but none of the IPAs I was hoping for. We did a flight of 6 anyway, which are rather generous pours for $12 total. Nice seating outside. Some of the choices were not really appropriate for the hot summer day but surprisingly their darkest beer turned out to be the best (Holy Smoke peated scotch ale). Was not very keen on the regular ales or sours, but the honey mead was interesting so we bought a large bottle to go. There were 3 other small parties that arrived and it became rather cramped in the tiny shack and service got bogged down. I was disappointed that other employees did not emerge from the brewery to help out.

I went to Church-Key for a meetup event and had the best time with these people!…read more They sure know how to throw a party. Everything was in its place and there were no complaints or screw face from anyone, just pure joy and lots of smiles. There was plenty of choice of your hoppy brew, fresh from the never ending tap, well, when it did end there was always another keg handy to keep the refreshments going. See my pics for selections of the liquid nectar on tap. Most people asked for pints of their fave selections, but others grabbed large jugs of brew which cost a deposit. Returning with said jug got you a refill. The staff was pleasant, friendly and accommodating. Normally they close at sundown, when the street lights come on, but since we looked thirsty and were not going anywhere, they stayed up with us, drinking and cavorting into the wee hours. When the demand waned and the beer booth got empty, there was a bell to ring to summon someone from the building who would come and run the taps. A big treat for me, and others too, was the hops growing on the porch which is a first for me to see and went well as a visual while downing a pint. They also provided food in the form of delicious fresh pizza from a local restaurant and had piles of slag sitting there alongside the beer counter. It was sold by the slice and really hit the spot on that warm evening. The church building itself was closed for tours with the pandemic, but the outside looked very interesting. There was also a small cemetery alongside it, as well as a larger cemetery across the road right beside where we were camped out, adding an interesting vibe to be sure! The party aspect was well thought out with outdoor facilities in place, as well as a bonfire with plenty of seating for us, and cool tables made from wooden pallets on top of beer kegs which were solid and functional. They even had a movie for us projected on an outdoor screen visible even for some on lawn chairs across the road. Well worth seeking out, just go to the top of the hill just east of the creek, easy to find!

The tasting room attendant was cheerful and friendly, telling us about each of the wines and sharing some of her favourites. I had six samples in total: the 2013 Windward White Blend (which would be great with spicy food), the 2014 Pinot Gris, the "Friend's Rose" (which is the one I bought - it was bright pink, with lots of berry and some rhubarb, a definite afternoon sipper), the 2013 St. Laurent, the 2013 Gamay Noir and the 2012 Meritage. Tastings were, I believe, $1/sample but they were waived with purchase. This is an environmentally friendly, solar powered winery with a sustainable mindset! It's not as fancy as some of the ones you'll visit in the county, but I think it just adds to the charm.

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.
