Review from Karlie M.

Went to this Brewster's a couple of weeks ago to meet a friend who lives in the West End. We were in the restaurant side rather than the lounge side for some reason. The lounge was bumpin' but there were only a couple of other occupied tables on our side.
Our waitress, Brittany I believe, was really friendly and attentive, checking up on us all the time and chatting with us. She was really great. We ordered nachos to share between three of us and we still couldn't finish them - they were massive. The beer was good, as usual. I'm biased, I love Brewsters and had a good experience at this one. I wouldn't expect anything less.Listed in: I love the nightlife

So I got roped into conducting interviews on my day off, and we ended up with a 2 hour break between applicants. Since all three of us were starving, we decided to head off to Brewsters for lunch.
Also, we wanted to see what the management team finds so appealing about two hour lunches. With beer.
Alas, as we were technically on duty, we skipped the beer. Yes, I declined a beer. No, the world is not ending.
Anyhow, we were seated immediately, and the waitress with the really nice, um......eyes was prompt and attentive. Food arrived quickly, and was pretty damned tasty.
I'd love to give this joint 4 stars, for the waitress with the lovely, um......eyes, if nothing else, but I was a little disappointed with my meal. The soup was fantastic, but the lobster mac and cheese was unimpressive. It tasted great, don't get me wrong, but I've had lobster mac and cheese before, hell, I've MADE lobster mac and cheese before, and in my opinion, lobster mac and cheese needs to have lobster in it.
Big, succulent chunks of lobster, not the tiny, nearly unnoticeable shreds that were in this dish. False advertising. Damn shame.
Still, it really was quite tasty. And my friends' burgers looked amazing, not to mention huge. I would more than likely be back to try one of those.
And also the beer. -

I've been here a few times and every time I order one of the speciality beers, their out.
I always end up getting the original lager, its still pretty good. I ordered one of the other speciality beers and it was really bitter, unfortunately I don't remember the name. But what I do remember very well was the fantastic CHEESE BALLS.. They are great, melted brie in a mild crunchy batter, with small tasty notes of Jalapeno. I would give 5 stars alone just for these. But unfortunately are server was not overly friendly and didn't look like she really enjoyed her job much and it showed...So were down to the 3 star, because of the service and being out of beer stock on some of the speciality beers, (especially on a weekend) -

They have specials on 7 days a week which unfortunately means, you have good reason to go to Brewster's 7 days a week.
First, the star of the show here is the beer. It doesn't matter if you like a smooth lager or a dark stout there is a beer for you. The Hammerhead Red, Shaughnessy Stout, and Flying Frog Lager are standouts but the Hefeweizen isn't as good as it could be. Ask about the seasonal beer, you won't regret it most of the time.
Brewster's isn't a place for pub food. Sure, it has all the staples like Nachos (which are good and enormous), Burgers, and Fish and Chips. Your burgers are not ordinary burgers, I had the Berliner and it was a bratwurst dream with sauerkraut and bacon. I don't think I have found anything on the menu, that I haven't liked. I just wish the Lobster Mac and Cheese was bigger.
A quick note about the decor, Brewster's underwent a major renovation inside a few months ago and moved it away from a bar look and feel to a restaurant one. It took me a while to get used to the dark wood everywhere, but I barely notice it now. -

Brewsters is Brewsters no matter where you go in the city, and sometimes predictability is a good thing, especially at the end of a long day when you don't want any surprises. I was there on a game night, so the atmosphere was particularly lively. We tried a couple of salads - the Long Beach included cranberries and chicken and was surprisingly lively and not greasy. The Blackened Steak needed more steak to form a filling meal, but the meat was done exactly how I asked. The wine list is brief, but the Argentinian Malbec is recommended. Try the Farmer's Tan beer when it's on special.

Brewsters is a restaurant and brewing company. It is known for its selection of handcrafted beers, freshly brewed at the downtown location. There are at least a dozen different kinds of beer. For those wanting the tried and true, other brands are featured on tap and in bottles.
The food is classy albeit a bit pricey. Burgers, seafood, chicken, pizzas, appetizers that are suitable for sharing -- portions are generous and there are a few items not commonly found in these sorts of places, such as butter chicken. I tend to go for more standard fare like the chicken strips - five plumo, juicy chicken tenders with fries and a homemade beer and mustard dipping sauce.
There are two parts to Brewsters -- the dining room and the pub. Both parts offer table service, although I prefer the pub with its large screen televisions and pool table.Listed in: Top Restaurants, The Places I Go Out

Review from Linda S.
I'm nearly always satisfied with my visits to Brewsters. They, as you might expect, brew their own beer and at least 80% of the beers are great. I like their blueberry ale the most. Their patio is pretty, although located on the street-side of the building and so can be both loud and hot. The lounge and the restaurant are essentially the same room separated by the bar -- thus, the room can be quite loud. Their Thai noodle dish is made with atypical noodles, but it still tastes good. Their War Wonton soup is HUGE and very good. Their servers always look like they're in pain -- why do employers insist on tight clothing and uncomfortable shoes?
I go b/c it's in my neighbourhood, and the food is of reliable quality. -

I prefer this Brewsters location as it is closer to my house. My friends and I would convene here during the summers for their Tuesday 20 cent wings. Flavors include: hot, honey garlic, salt & pepper, sweet chili or Bow Valley BBQ. They also have a good selection of beer, especially considering they are a brewing company. I would highly recommend trying on of Brewster's brews- at last count they have 14 different flavors.
Brewsters features good menu items for parties of 2 or more to share. The food items are not too far out from what you would find at a Boston Pizza. Even the tvs playing sporting events are laid out in a similar fashion to BPs. I've had good experiences with the pizza, especially their bbq chicken caesar pizza. My friends and I usually come here for the wings though, and it's usually hit or miss. Sometimes the wings are nice and thick, and sometimes they look like they've been malnourished. This inconsistency makes it hard to justify some of the long wait times one can incur at this location. -

I see Brewsters as an upper class sports lounge.
The reason I say that is because they have a lounge/pub feel but still serve higher end/quality food.
I like Brewsters for that reason.
The food here is delicious. I don't even know what to recommend because I haven't had anything here that I didn't like.
The servers are great. They, for the most part, seem to enjoy their jobs which is always a refreshing change of pace.
They have so many kind s of beer here that I can't count them. Well, I probably could but I didn't feel like it. Sorry. My point is, if you like beer check out Brewsters.
It's a cool place to hang out and chill while still getting good service, good drinks, and good food. -

Located in an older part of town in the Meadowlark Shopping Centre (a not so great area) but it wasn't chosen by me. The atmosphere was nice and I liked their patio set up. Friendly waitress and excellent service.
I have always wanted to try this place out since I have one relatively close to me in Oliver Square (104 Ave). I ordered one of their summer specials, a blackened steak sandwich (?) and an onion soup instead of fries. I found it to be pretty tasty. I would go back to try some other items on the menu but probably next time will be the Oliver location.
