Top Brewerys in Niagara Falls, Canada

A must checkout gem in Ontario! Always come here for their hazy IPAs and a very yummy fried chicken sandwich!! Plenty of food options and a rotating special menu everyday! Great seating indoors and outdoors!

Staff always friendly and very knowledgeable! My family loves going here every time we are in the Niagara region or by the outlet!

Gluten free nachos found here! I've had these twice now, and no reaction has been had. I've always loved coming here for the awesome staff and fun nights, having reliable and safe food is an incredible addition!

Stopped in for a lunch with some coworkers and was very impressed by Taps. Had the best chicken Caesar wrap I’ve ever had, and the nachos looked delicious. Staff were friendly, and the environment was very welcoming.

My wife and I went here for a day date while our son was out with his Grandmother. My wife had the hypnotize and I have the blender beers. We shared the fries and deep fried Brussels sprouts, slow roasted pork sandwich and the mussels. Everything was delicious.

We were staying near Clifton Hill tourist area and really needed to find our people… so we looked up craft breweries and buy was this a find! Such a neat place, food was great and the beer was reasonably priced. Try the poutine!

I’ve been here for drinks but never ate here. I recently took meat out of my diet and was looking for a vegetarian friendly place and Taps was recommended. I got the vegan Caesar wrap and sweet potato potato fries. It was delicious! I would have never have known I wasn’t eating meat. There was so many options for me! The food the service and the atmosphere was perfect for lunch!! I definitely recommend Taps!!

We had a great time at Blackburn Beer Company. We live abroad and one of the things we miss is good craft beer-we found it at Blackburn Beer Company. Beers were delicious, food good and staff were amazing. The atmosphere was relaxing, it is a very cool and family friendly space!!!

I had a pleasant time at another brewery but I felt like it was time to move along. So I checked the Yelp and here I am. The big bonus here is that they are not in the touristy area and they have a free parking lot!

Very comfortable and cool here on a hot day, the hostess found me a quiet table next to a power outlet. I enjoyed two beers over three hours, quietly sipping away and surfing the internet. Very, very nice.

They do have a big music stage so if live music is a thing for you, check their schedule. They also have some huge doors so on a nice day, it's great to be inside but with the fresh air.

Great food, great beer, and an excellent selection of sours! Our group of friends visited recently after a hike at Niagara Glen and had a fantastic meal. The menu offers interesting items on both the regular and feature board, making this kitchen stand out from typical brew pubs. There's a great selection of beers, especially sours, perfect for the summer season. I had a flight and enjoyed tasting all the different options. The plating of the feature board items was beautifully done—a feast for both the eyes and the belly. A great place to stop by when you're in the Niagara area!

Enjoy the atmosphere of this open concept brewery and the awesome car show that is happening every Thursday night!

Only request I ask to be done to the patio so we can enjoy it more- is to add shade down the front side of the patio as it was so hot with the sun. As you can see in the pic the top of the patio is also not fully covered.
There is seating more inside as well.

A brew house that takes great care of vegetarians, too? That's Taps, with great beers on tap, a delicious menu and service that is friendly and knowledgeable... we loved the food, especially because they had so many vegan choices in addition to great food for the carnivores in our family. Try any of the poutine, wraps, and burgers; you won't leave hungry!!!

The presentation when entering this establishment is 5 stars. From the grounds to the design of the building is top notch.
That's where it ends. When you order a beer, you get just that. A 12 ounch glass. It's kind of like when you order orange juice at breakfast. That's the size of the beer you get. It's not a good impression. Come on, you make beer there, and it costs are minimal. At least put it in a pint glass. ( Now, after reading the owners response, this makes sense. I wished the waiter explained that to me)
As for the food, my friend and I ordered the el Paso burger. It was a good slab of meat, but it was tasteless. The smashed beans in it had no flavor, and in all honesty, it reminded me of my childhood and ordering a happy meal. Happy meal might have been more flavourful.
That all said I'll come back in the future and see if some changes are made. I'll give it a year. If nothing changes, I'll continue to go to counterpart where the size of the beer serving is to my liking, and their burgers are IMHO the best in the city.
Besides my disappointment, I have to say the layout and feel this place is top-notch. If they can improve in my suggestions, I feel this place would be packed all the time. It's also nice to sit on this patio with the setting sun shining on you. The water glass should never be bigger than your beer. ;) (glad to hear the owner has put in the permits to be able to serve a regular size beer)
I appreciated the response from the owner, and now I'll change my review from 3 stars to 4 stars.

Trust me when I say that I have been to a lot of breweries around the world. This breweries beer fall WAY short. I just tried the “seasonal” beer flight and not one of the 4 was worth an even a sip. The stout was blah. The Ice Wine beer was boarder line not even drinkable and I could drink goat piss from the source. They should get their “brewery” tag stripped away. The only reason I left 2 stars was 1 star for the good club salad. If you want to try good beers, do yourself a favor and just go to the liquor store and buy beers there.

I visited the Niagara Brewing Company Taproom before a show in Niagara Falls, expecting just to pass the time, but I was pleasantly surprised by the experience. The atmosphere was lively but comfortable, with a welcoming staff. The beer selection was impressive, offering a variety of well-crafted local brews. The nachos we ordered were delicious, with generous toppings and a great portion size. Overall, it was a fantastic spot to relax with good food and drinks.

Had a great evening on the patio of Counterpart Brewing. We ordered a flight with French fries and burgers. The French fries were a nice add - perfectly crisped on the outside with a tasty seasoning and fluffy inside. The aiolli was a welcomed dipping option. The cheese burger, meanwhile, was the star attraction. It's a darn good burger! While I'm also a fan of the smash burger - this is not it. Counterpart's burger is a thick patty that's ground in house and covered in a creamy, delicious American cheese. Worth every bite!

I'm delighted that this restaurant is just a five-minute drive away from my place. They have an amazing menu, and my all-time favourite dish is their nachos. However, I do wish they offered some desserts. The staff is extremely friendly, and the ambiance is lovely. The atmosphere is very relaxing and comfortable.

Perfection! I desperately wanted some vegan poutine. Not only was that fantastic but the vegan wrap was absolutely delicious as well. My partner is an omnivore and enjoyed the burger too so it was nice that both of us could get just what we wanted. I would definitely stop here again.

Feb2024: my wife and I shared a COBB SALAD ($20), a BLACK & BLUE BURGER ($19), and a couple of flights of beer and cider.

Absolutely stellar!

The Cobb salad was easily the best one we've ever had! Plentiful warm chicken, real bacon, loads of crumbled blue cheese, hard-boiled egg, half an avocado, and of course greens.

The burger was clearly freshly house-made, and of excellent quality. The fries weren't house-cut but very good. Ask for the spicy mayo rather than ketchup.

The beers we sampled were also excellent.

We'll be back!

A really cool brewery and venue.

Taps brew house has a nice location in downtown Niagra. We came for some drinks one night and had a great time.

They have tons of tables and it's very roomy inside, they even have a stage and do live shows sometimes.

They had a really nice beer selection, just about 1 of each of the standard kinds ( Ale, Lager, amber, stout, IPA, etc) and some guest beers.

We had a flight and all of them were really good. The pumpkin ale and brown ale were a particular favorite.

We also had an order of their steak poutine and it was pretty good.

It was quiet but the service was excellent, I would recommend Taps in a heartbeat if you like good beer.

Nice selection of brews made on premise. Our servers was delightful. The food was average (for us). Nice stop if in the area. Likely better in the summer or when they have live music. We stopped in on a cold snowy afternoon.

Used flights to try every beer on the menu and it didn't let us down. The pretzel was amazing, the beer cheese was superb as was the honey mustard. The mexi fries were superb, huge portion, and the black and blue burger was fantastic. I'll be back when I next visit and my friends will now be visiting quite a lot. Excellent place.

There are different restaurants inside the Casino building , this Taproom's eyes catching interior design is the Gate. The "Try Them All" beer set is amazing . I like them all. The Fish & Chip is a good matching with the beer. The service is very good. l like the atmosphere !

it’s open quite late on a week night which is why we ended up here. The kitchen was still open at 11:30pm and stays open until last call at 1:45am.
I ordered the buffalo chicken sandwich with fries. The blue cheese sauce comes on the side for you to spread yourself on the burger. I liked having that option! It is a good value for the money as the portion sizes are massive! Could easily split one meal between two.
The waitress behind the bar that served us was really sweet as well.
Great option if you’re looking for a good restaurant!

Sarah was the bartender on the day we visited. She was super friendly and had a great sense of humour. Her service was impeccable and she was super attentive to our table. This is a great location to hang out with family and friends and enjoy a pint. They have a selection of local brews along with seasonal beers. For sure a repeat place for us to visit! This location is mobility accessible.
