Absolutely AWESOME. We were staying at a hotel across the street and walk over for a beer. Family owned and the owners 2 daughters were serving us Both were very delightful!! We chatted and had such a nice time. They gifted us a couple things that was most unexpected. So very nice of them. To top it off they have SO MANY beers. Incredible. If in Kitchener you need to stop in!

If there was an option for 6 stars I’d pick it! The variety of beers is excellent! But the food is exceptional! Best wings I’ve had in K-W! Best part of their cooking is that they will not cook with seed oils. They only cook with beef tallow, lard, or olive oil. This place is next level!

Music is wonderful and down low enough that you can hear it but it doesn't take over the room. Pleasant and welcomed surprise. The server brings their book of beers and you get a complete description of each. It takes a while to decide! Food is excellent. Fries done in beef tallow. If you have never tasted the difference you don't know what you are missing.

Absolutely amazing! From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The food was incredibly flavorful and presented, and the service was warm, attentive, and genuine. One of the things we really appreciated is that they cook only with beef tallow, lard, and olive oil — no seed oils whatsoever. It’s rare to find a place that cares this much about quality and ingredients. Far beyond just good or great — it was truly exceptional. We’ll definitely be back!

After years of being told about this place I finally had the chance to pop my head in yesterday. Honestly I wish I would have had more time to stick around. I was greeted very kindly at the door, by a man I found out later was the owner. It definitely looked like "regulars hour", so it was obvious I was a newcomer. That didn't stop the staff and the folks at the bar from being super welcoming. Since I was on my own I decided to sit at the bar, was shown the Beer "Bible", which for a place like this, is necessary. They have a huge selection both on tap and in cans/bottles. It was great to see a mix of Ontario (shout out Farm League and Blood Brothers! among others) and imports from around the world. Nothing boring and generic like Coors Light. Both bartenders serviced me, asked at exactly the right time if I was ready for another beer (which I was), and were friendly and easy to joke around with. The regulars were really welcoming as well, and one Gentleman actually offered to buy me a pint, since it was my first time there. Totally unnecessary, but much appreciated. Had an opportunity to speak more with Harold, the owner, before I left. Incredibly generous and genuine man. This is a quaint and unpretentious bar with a small town feel (in the best way possible), like Cheers, where everybody knows your name! I didn't have a chance to order food, but I will next time I'm in. I will definitely be back to support this spot.
