Brewsters Brewing Company & Restaurant

Local Brewster's been staple in Mckenzie Towne for a while and haven't been here since some dining changes.

Oh menu has changed and the food still consistent and hot. Staff are always friendly and helpful to provide suggestions of food.

I had the blueberry crumble cake with ice cream and it was delicious.

Had one of Brewster's beer ale and it was yummy.

Overall can't go wrong with this lively location in High Street.

Sadly, this trip to Brewsters was probably one of the worst that I have ever experienced. They had a new pub grub menu that I wanted to try.
To drink I just wanted water and the glass it came out in was dirty .. around the rim! It was like milk was in the glass and left a stain on it type dirty so I didn't drink it. When the waitress came back I showed her and said my cup is dirty and asked her for a new one. I watched her take it to a sink and wash it off with her hand and put water back in it and bring it back to my table instead of getting me a new glass ... would it have been that hard to just get me a new glass ??

Food was great! Service was not great. We've had the same girl twice, and each time she has been incredibly rude to us. Didn't come check on us when our food came, we sat at our table for 20 minutes before anyone came to take our drink orders, and the place was empty. it's very disappointing because it's right by my house but will not be coming back.She has a centipede tattoo. Blond/ brunette hair. I've been a server for a long time and it hurts to tip someone 10% but I should of tipped nothing.

Just ordered take out and it's very awkward because no one greets you at the front and i was looking for someone to see where I can pickup my Togo order but all the waitresses just ignore you as you stand awkwardly at the front. So I had to yell and wave down a waitress to ask her where I can pickup my to go order since there's no front desk and there's a big sign that just says take a seat anywhere. Who knew it would be at the bar! Don't be an awkward penguin like me next time just head start to the island bar.

The Mac and cheese with meatloaf is good the Mac better than the meatloaf because the meatloaf was dry. I wish I would just order the Mac only because I hardly touched my meatloaf.

The dry ribs were good also especially with the sweet mustard dip.

the vibe in here is great I would definitely come back next time to dine in. But I feel they should have a sign for take out.

Brewsters was founded by Michael Lanigan since 1989. It's original a beer company. The company combined beers to provide an outstanding dining experience to customers. There are 11 locations across the Alberta province. We had a dinner at Brewsters last night.

Environment:

The location we've been is located at Mckenzie Towne Southeast Calgary, which is 10 mins away from our home. The restaurant is located inside the Mckenzie Towne community. There are many other restaurants around that area. We arrived the restaurant around 5 pm. Since it was still very early for the dinner time, the restaurant was not very busy. We walked in the restaurant, I could see there is a big sign at the front, wrote something like " Wherever you want to sit, take the seat". We got inside the restaurant and found the table by ourselves. The menu was on the side of each table.

Services:

After we sat down for few mins, our table server came to us and began to serve us the drink. She also introduced Today special to us, which was very helpful. My boyfriend had today special 16oz beer and I had hot water with Lemon. About 4 or 5 mins, our drink came out. Later on, we began to order food for the main meal. The food came out the kitchen not very fast.

Food:

We have ordered calamari to share. My boyfriend had the special Bavarian beef dip with yam fries and I ordered Pad Thai Stirfry. The Calamari was crispy and deep fried with cajun remoulade. The taste was decent. Bavarian beef dip was Slow-roasted Alberta beef, white cheddar, horseradish aioli, Hammerhead beer mustard, caramelized onions, pretzel roll, and au jus. The whole dish looks yummy, but taste was so so. My Pad Thai Stirfry was Sweet & spicy sauce, chicken, tiger prawns, stir-fry mixed vegetables, roasted peanuts, cilantro, rice noodles. There were only three tiger prawns in my bowl. It was very small portions of food for me. The taste was fine. Nothing very excited

Prices:

The price of the food were very expensive with small portions. Calamari $13.99, Beef Dip $16.99, Thai Stirfry $18.99 and plus beers, tax, and tips. All in total, we spent around $70 for dinner.

In summary, Brewsters is a fancy local beef & dining restaurant. The taste of food and beer were decent. Just prices and portions were small.

I love this Brewsters, they have such an amazing patio. I have spent many summer nights here and I plan to spend many more. If you go I suggest getting a whole bunch of appetizers to share, it's the best things they have on the menu. I highly recommend the calamari and the pretzels. The pretzel sauce is to die for! They also have great chicken wings, gyoza and potatoe skins. Great place all around.

Yum yum yum! Yahoo, do I ever love this place. Anytime the wife and I want to go out for a bite, we choose this place. Their beer is always cold and freely flowing (peach for me please!). Get their tater tots as your add on, you won't regret it.
And make sure you tell'em that Ron sent you!

Great location it's super close to home for me. It's always so busy in the Mckenzie strip mall area; there's never any parking. It took us 15 minutes of driving up and down to find a stall. The pub was super busy on a Friday night. Our waitress told us to sit at any table even if it was dirty and someone would come and clean it.....10 minutes later.

We ordered the beef dip which was okay the Au jus had not very good after taste. But the Brewster burger was really good. My boyfriend got the drink special rig pig pale ale ($5.50 on Friday's) with an ice burg cap. He was in love with this drink it's a must try!

Slow service and mediocre overpriced food. Went on a Saturday night around 11pm, was not very busy but service was still very slow. Grilled cheese was not as good as something you could make at home and the tator tots were very greasy. Their old menu I found to be much better than their current one.

Food is good, especially like the Sriracha dry rub wings and the adovada. I wish the adovada was hotter like it is supposed to be but I understand you are feeding the calgary market. I have always had great service seated at the bar, terrible service seated at a table, and although the patio is beautiful I hate it up there because of the children allowed.

I love their rasberry and peach beers!
