   Great casual atmosphere. Good food and service. Fabulous location. Usually live music on Friday evenings but preempted my NHL playoffs this evening. Fish and chips is good but greasy. Of course hard to please a Newfoundlander when it comes to fish. Food was hot.. nachos were amazing! Overall great experience and kid friendly!

   I've eaten here before and I really enjoyed the food, drinks, and service, so I brought my friends in from out of town to eat here last friday after an event. I made a reservation a few days in advance, and when I arrived I was told there was no reservation under my name and that they couldn't seat us. On the way back from the restaurant, I had checked my phone to see a second confirmation had gone through via text days after I initially reserved it, which I had not seen prior. This was a big disappointment since I had really looked forward to this evening with my friends, and we ended up in a fast food drive thru instead.

   Hi Emily - the team is actively looking into this with OT as I type this out. We're very sorry that you had this experience - one no one should have with us here at the Brewpub. We'll definitely make things right and have already been in touch to get more info from you. Cheers, TB

   We came into to town to see the blue jays and came across GLB. Food was good and staff was very friendly.

   A great selection of craft beers and live music on weekends. Only tried appetizers this time, quality was pretty good

   A fun night! The food was yummy (pub style) and they had a trivia night. We all had a great time!

   Nice spot to try awesome beers along with great service and food. Hosted a group of 20 for lunch, and everyone enjoyed it.

    April 2025 Update: Gold stars all around! The food and service were both top-notch. Trivia Night was also a lot of fun. This has become my go-to spot in the area. 2024 Review: I have eaten here several times already, but this was my first time going on a Friday evening with live music. I really enjoyed the food, beers, and listening to Luke Koleszar’s music. He played a good mix of his own songs, and covers of popular songs. Our server tonight did not give us a bottle of water like the other tables though, and our beers took a long time to arrive. But that’s not going to discourage me from eating here again because every other time I have had excellent servers, and the food and beers are always delicious.
