    Being new to the area, I've been on a quest to find a comfortable pub with a good beer selection and good food.

    After a number of disappointing excursions to some of the bars and pubs on King Street and the surrounding area, I decided to venture below Cafe1842 in the Huether Hotel.

    Lion Brewery is a cozy place with a large stone fireplace, brick walls, a low wood ceiling. (My first time there was in winter so the warmth of the place stands out in my mind.)

    Minimal televisions. Low but lively chatter. And solid beer choices.

    You can't go wrong with a group of friends, an English Ale, and any one of the Lion's pizzas.

    Had the worst meal of my life at Lion Brewery.

    1. I ordered French Onion soup as a starter. It tasted like an entire bottle of pepper had been accidentally poured into it beforehand, making it undrinkable/inedible.

    2. Ordered wings as the main course. They were, quite literally, battered in salt.

    3. Combined with the over-peppered soup and over-salted wings, my mouth was uncomfortable and on fire.

    4. My friend ordered a Chicken Pot Pie. He found chicken bone fragments in it.

    All in all, not a good experience.

    On weekend mornings they have a great breakfast menu which is definitely worth checking out. The place looks like a dungeon so between that and the beer they brew themselves it's definitely my favourite pub experience in Waterloo.
