This is a great space above the main restaurant, and trivia was so fun! However, we made a res for 6 and when we arrived were seated at a couch area with a coffee table - this wasn’t expressed anywhere in our reservation, and the space was full so we couldn’t move to another table. The coffee table was at knee level, and wasn’t big enough to fit all of our plates and drinks, and we all had to awkwardly hunch over the small table to eat. It should really be stated in the reservation that this is what is being booked, or the restaurant should call you and ask if it’s okay since it’s a super awkward space. As well, there was a limited menu due to being upstairs and not wanting to overwhelm the kitchen, which is understandable, but there are no sides for the burgers (which is really the only entree) and no fries allowed. I would suggest to have more shareables like nachos available in lieu, or some handheld wraps.

Service was wonderful! Matt is awesome but tables are tooo crowded and shoved together in the bar area. Felt like we were sitting in the walk way.

Hopes were high but it didn't really wow us in any way. Pork barbacoa tacos were extremely bland. Whipped feta dip was great and so were the sweet potato fries! Service was okay. We never had our drinks topped up which was frustrating. Definitely pricey for the service and quality

Brewery Bay has the formula for success. We made reservations for 4 and although a full house, our table was ready and our service was prompt. The food was delicious and served hot. Try the great lineup of beers brewed by Couchiching Brewery in the same building.

We love Brewery Bay however today this was not our usual experience. Typically they are 5 stars all the way. However that was not today. Hopefully next time is back to our usual food and service

Fish and chips were delicious, unfortunately we got the tailends of the batch of fries. (The bill was compensated appropriately after our mention of the issue) Beef dip and grilled cheese were delicious. Atmosphere was great. Comfortable chairs and benches. Lots of customers and very busy for a Saturday afternoon. Our server was exceptional. Friendly, engaging and accountable when the food didn't meet our expectations. A great place to meet up with friends or family.
