    Outstanding little place in the middle of everything! Bring two of your friends if you order the guacamole and chips, here is my take away container. The wings were enormous, had hot and honey/garlic on the side. Had the Beerdevil IPA, 62 IBU, blended a high hop aroma and caramel-like, toasted malt flavour, it's bold and definitely worth it. It was a Sunday afternoon and there was a LIVE guitar/singer playing amazing music! Definitely should be on the "bucket" list when on Clifton Hill in Niagara Falls!

    Drinks: We got the beer flights which was amazing. Got 4 5oz different beers and as a person who’s not a fan of beers, I loved them. Ask the server to get the flights of the most popular beers. Food: We got the nachos that were great portion size and tasted amazing too. No complaints. Vibe: There was live music even on a Thursday night which made it great to be at. Value: Cheap beers and great priced food!

    We had a good time at Niagra Brewing. I enjoy beers so I got the seasonal flight. The food was of good quality as well. We got to sit on the third floor overlooking Clifton Hill which was nice to feel removed from the bustle below. The burger and chicken sandwich were our choices with no regrets.

    Prime location, live music was nice but the beers are terrible. Tourists and location are definitely keeping this place afloat. Maybe the food is good? I didn't have food so can't speak to that but the beers, oh man.... 😬 I had a flight with 8 beers. The best being their ice wine beer and their worst, the oatmeal stout. Everything else was pretty bad too with the exception of the peach rambler and the pale ale, both of which were mediocre.

    Come for the brew, don’t expect too much from the food. A nice spot with plenty of seating if you’re looking for a local brewery. Their lager was indeed good and I had a few. Perhaps a few more and I might had forgot that I ordered food.

    This place has an awesome location, drinks, food and live music. We stopped to sample some beer as we had a coupon for tasting. Husband loved the lager and ordered more of those. I ordered a white sangria and it was delicious. We ordered an apetizer and got the cheese pretzel which was ok. Then decided to order another apetizer and got the nachos with guac. Those were really good. The guac was freshly made to perfection and the salsa as well. We spent way longer than planned in this place. The server seemed to be rushed at first and not very friendly but then a quick change and was making recommendations and chatting a bit too. The place gets really busy so no wonder they are rushing. I recommend this place 20/10

    Their beer is really good. We had the lager given we had plans for after lunch; which was light and refreshing. Will definitely be come back to try their IPA. Tara was our server. She was polite, friendly and knowledgeable. She gave us good recommendations for lunch. They also have a good beyond meat burger on their menu. The only disappointment was their pretzel which wasn't as hot and fresh as one would expect perhaps it was the cheese pretzel that changed the texture. Special mention: the entertainment was really good. The musician had a great voice and a good selection of songs. A definitely must do while in Niagara

    Brewery was ok, just ok. Only had the devil beer IPA. It was pretty light for an IPA, but still crisp and hoppy. There was live music. Food looked good. The bar tender guy was as excited as Eeor from Winnie the poo. I'll be back for round two later. Mmm

    We stopped at Niagara Brewing Company for a quick bite and a couple of beers. The food was actually good for pub fare and the portions were definitely more on the “American” size (larger) than the local average. The place is pretty spacious with a nice atmosphere and different seating areas. The staff was friendly and diligent as well, although it wasn’t a very busy day.

    The beer tasting is a great opportunity to taste their own beers. However, if you try it on the basis of a voucher from the hotel, you only get the basic offer and the glasses are half full. I also paid for the tasting of seasonal beers and then you got full glasses. I like an interior, live music and fast service.

    We sat upstairs at the bar. Downstairs was crowded and the balcony was full except tables that weren’t with people were dirty. We got the 5 wings, which for the money were not worth it, and we got honey garlic, but you couldn’t taste the garlic at all, like not even a little. It was way too sweet also. Our bartender/waitress had an attitude and forgot about most of our stuff which we then had to ask the other waitress to get for us like a box, a request to change the tv to hockey, and other things. The beer was okay, we got the 8 beer flight and also for the money probably isn’t worth it. We had a way better time and interactions with the bartenders at the distillery and better food and service. We won’t be back sadly. We also asked specifically for no blue cheese and ranch instead, and our order came out (the wings) after waiting for almost 25 minutes with two blue cheeses and only one ranch. It’s a lot of little things that make it all one big bad experience. Also I asked to tab out twice and had my card sitting there (to show I was ready) for 10 minutes after saying I wanted to. There was a bottle of beer sitting next to us which was there when we arrived and left. Dirty tables everywhere and poor service overall. And food was bland and not amazing.

    My husband and I enjoyed the beer tasting at this place! The lady at the bar upstairs looked after us and took the time to explain the different types of beers she's serving us. Amazing service.My favourite is their very own Niagara Premium Lager 😘 I would recommend this place .

    We wanted to like this place more than we did. Between us, we had a pumpkin ale, a flight of the standard brewery beers, a pretzel, and bratwurst sandwiches. The pumpkin ale was a good representation of that variety. The other beers were all rather plain, though fine. The sausage sandwiches were bland. The sauerkraut helped, but was quite mild, and wasn't enough to save the dish. The caramelized onions were barely noticeable. The whole thing cried out for another component with stronger flavors, like a grainy mustard. As for the pretzel, it was fine. We were supposed to be able to specify whether we wanted salt or cheese, and indicated we just wanted cheese...but as you can see, it came with salt as well. Still, the cheese sauce was solid. I can't say the food was bad, but I would not come here again, either.

    $13 for a bad beer? I know it's in a busy area, but that is crazy. There was a sign at the entrance that said $4 beers during happy hour. When I asked the waitress, she said that was correct and then said she'd be right back. Then another waitress came up and took my order. The bill came to $26+?? When I asked she said that price was only for the Amber. We ended up sitting outside and had a view of the falls and the busy touristy area. Loved to be able to people watch. We ordered 2 Amber beers and they were $6 each. When we asked the server, she said the sign was wrong. It was the sign they pull out and put in front of the restaurant. We tried 3 different types of beer and they were all okay at best.

    Environment was nice and we like the peach or Irish beer. All the beer are in house and test very refreshing. We went on Saturday and they had live music which added nice touch Wings are were thick and juicy. Plenty of chips for guac. Reasonable price. Instagram Tneats

    I came here because my hotel gave me a voucher for a beer flight. It was a good decision. Pretzel and a free flight was a perfect mid day snack. Their beers are tasty. I liked the peach radler. Worth stopping by!

    This is a nice place! We had fun with the live music and tasted really good beer. The nachos with brisket are so good!

  • 2/5 Sterling R. 6 months ago on Google
    The only good thing about this place is the live music (and the pretzels). There are a few pleasant servers but in large everyone is counting the minutes until their shift is over. The blonde lady pouring beer seemed to enjoy making people feel like they were inconveniencing her. I would never return to this place. Just enjoy the music from the street.

    We had dinner here. The burger and the nachos was surprisingly good. Had the complimentary beer sample which was pretty decent.

  • 5/5 Anthony C. 4 months ago on Google
    We had such a wonderful time stopping in for a couple of drinks and enjoyed ourselves immensely. This is such a great building, and the atmosphere was perfect 💯. We'll be back next time we're in Niagara Falls. We'd recommend this place to everyone 💯 👍 👌 😀. Give them a try!

  • 5/5 David M. 5 months ago on Google
    Not sure about the bad reviews here. We didn't eat but enjoyed several of their beers. The service was good and the live music made the atmosphere. The prices were reasonable for a tourist trap. I'd go again.

  • 4/5 At M. 4 months ago on Google
    While the atmosphere is decent, I couldn't help but notice that the prices are on the higher side. During our visit, we opted for a simple order – a dish of chicken wings, a serving of fries, and two brews, which ended up costing us a whopping 80 Canadian dollars. While the quality was good, the pricing felt a bit steep for what we ordered. It would be wonderful if they could reconsider their pricing strategy to make the experience more accessible to a broader range of customers.

    Great atmosphere with live music. Beers are good. Personally liked the lager. Their Peach Radler seems to be their flagship. Too light for me but the wife liked it. Food is good, but took forever on the day we visited. About an hour.

  • 5/5 Mayank J. 9 months ago on Google
    Amazing staff with a smile on their face always even though the place is so busy. Great food and really awesome collection of beers. The ambience of the brewery is so nice. A bit expensive but worth trying. Three floors with a patio gives ample of space to choose your favourite place to have your drinks and enjoy your trip to Niagara Falls.

  • 5/5 Auranne P. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome brewery! Visited last fall with family and friends. Easy place to find on Clifton Hill. Got seated in no time and had a nice seasonal pumpkin beer. We ordered a few appetizers to have with the beer and they were all excellent. Great atmosphere and there is a merchandise section on site.

  • 5/5 Amanda L. 1 year ago on Google
    We went to Billy Bones/distillery for ribs and brisket and drinks. The food was delicious, lRge portions, but did need a side dish warmed up, which staff was happy to do for us. Great service and atmosphere after a long drive into town. Excellent, central location to Clifton, the falls and hotels.

  • 5/5 toni l. 10 months ago on Google
    We stopped by during the day and used a free coupon from the Sheraton for a tasting. We tried the chips and guacamole and salsa which was so good. There was live music and you could sit inside or out. Our waitress was great too! Cheers!

  • 5/5 Arpit M. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to enjoy chilled beer. Lots of choices and something for everyone. Great location. Great service and good food options. Live music on the weekends. Happy hours after 7 but not during summer. Two floors to accommodate large crowd.

  • 4/5 Jeremy C. 11 months ago on Google
    We came here on one of those extremely hot days in April. When we got there, we had to wait a little for a patio seat, which was OK. However, the service was very slow. The food took a long time to be made, and the waitress took a long time to tend to us. Having said that the food was decent, but expensive. The drinks were also pricey. But that’s how it is on Clifton Hill. The live music was a very nice touch.

    Love a nice Brewery, we stopped here while visiting Niagara Falls. Not a big fan of Beer in the first place but really like the type of experiences you can get at a lot of Breweries and wineries.. This one was not an upset both the service for and drinks were good. We didn't try any of the food here but they did serve that as well. I would for sure recommend this place to anybody who does like Beer! Thank you to the company for the warm welcome!

  • 5/5 Lauren R. 1 year ago on Google
    Stopped here while sight seeing for lunch with two kiddos in tow. The kids enjoyed chicken fingers and fries (which comes with a sweet plum dipping sauce) while the husband had a brat (he loved it!), I had a cheese pretzel with marinara (it was huge!). We tried the signature flight (lager was my favorite and the Irish ale was the hubby’s favorite). For dessert I tried the rhubarb lemonade- OHMYGOSH it was incredible! Wish I had 10 more! Our total ended up just under $100USD which I thought was reasonable for good food and drinks in a major tourist area.

    Great ambience. Delicious food. They serve fresh brewed good stuff. Humble staff.

  • 3/5 Anthony B. 2 years ago on Google
    We attended late afternoon for happy hour Live music Decent vibe The sign that has all their beers advertised does not mean that's the beer for happy hour. It's just 1 beer that's written on a chalk board inside Server was great Good food good size portion We all agreed the manager (we assumed) made it like we were an inconvenience We may or may not go back
