About the restaurant

Beertown is the destination for the instinctively curious. We fuel your fascination for all things purposefully crafted, whether that's beer, cuisine or design. Our Guests know that life is too short for the ordinary. With 40 beers on tap and over 60 in bottles, there is a beer for everyone. Our Chefs have taken as much time as the brewers to craft everything that goes onto each plate.

If your desired reservation time is unavailable, call us directly at 647-910-2337. Please understand we are leaving some space available for walk-in Guests. Please stop by if you’re in the area.

Please note that patio seating is available on a first-come, first serve basis and cannot be guaranteed even with a reservation.

Patio is pet friendly with a limited amount.

Our team looks forward to serving you!

Love Beertown. The team is lovely and the fried chicken portions are amazing. It’s a pretty noisy place, not for those looking for quiet. We love sitting at the bar but there are lots of seating options. Good for groups too. Tons of beer choices but all kinds of other types of drinks and they wisely cater to the DDs as well. Fun night out to watch the game (all the games) or hang with friends.

The food was delicious! I got the steak and frites and it was very good. The service could’ve been better, as we were waiting for the waitress a lot.

LOCAL Public Eatery - Liberty Village

Niagara

About the restaurant

You will find us just outside the downtown core with a great view of the CN Tower, amongst the repurposed warehouses, innovative startups & hustling creatives. While Liberty Village has developed into a modern hub of cool residential & business spaces, there is a unique history to this neighbourhood that goes way back to the 1850s & it is evident in its character. Close to Lamport Stadium, the Molson Ampitheatre & endless sporting & cultural events, LOCAL Public Eatery doesn't skip a beat when it comes to fun. We are open for lunch, happy hour, dinner & weekend brunch, love sports (sports!) & have been known to throw epic parties as well. There's also cornhole on our iconic patio, shuffleboard inside our large room & 20 taps (look for what's pouring on our giant flap display). LOCAL Public Eatery is where people quickly go from strangers, to friends & eventually to family.

Etobicoke

About the restaurant

Older than Canada itself, this house was built in 1850 by Amos Wilcox, a War of 1812 veteran, and his son Charles, who farmed the land.

A family home then, a gathering place now.

Come in, and we'll take care of the rest.

At The Wilcox Gastropub, we honour its legacy with soul-warming dishes, thoughtfully crafted drinks, and a spirit of hospitality as enduring as the home itself.

Great food and the service is pretty good! It is a nice neighbourhood gem! We were sat on the patio which was nice! My only complaint, as much as the live music was nice, the volume was very loud so it was difficult to enjoy the dinner without having to talk very loudly. Our waiter was great, good memory, smart and attentive!
