"Niagara Brewing Company is another awesome craft brewery in Niagara Falls, and they’re located right in Clifton Hill!. They’ve got a selection of signature craft beers, including a Niagara Icewine Beer – say what?!. They don’t have a huge food menu, but you can definitely grab a simple appetizer like guac & chips or a heartier meal like a burger."

"Grab a cold craft beer that proudly represents Canada’s brewing heritage and today’s innovative craft beer scene. They’re passionate about providing the highest quality beer to enthusiastic consumers and take pride in what they do.

"Why You Need To Go: Unlike the other wineries, what makes this spot unique is your tasting allows you to sample wine, whiskey and beer. Or you can relax in the beer garden with a cold beverage and snacks. Just make sure to head with no more than three friends, as groups larger than four people need to sit at a separate table."

"After having a blast at the Niagara Icewine Festival, Olivia and I decided to pay Wayne Gretzky Estates a visit. While I’ve had their wine and I was not impressed, the complex sure did!. Maybe I just tried a bad batch of wine as the white I tried had almost sour-like qualities?"

"Taps Brewhouse offers a diverse menu of sandwiches, burgers, pizza and pub classics, alongside beers brewed on-site. Its beers are brewed using only four ingredients – filtered water, hops, malted barley and yeast – and all menu items are prepared fresh in-house with a focus on local products. The restaurant is set in an old warehouse, featuring an open concept interior that allows diners to watch sports on the TV or enjoy live music performed on its small stage."

"Taps Brewing Company offers a sprawling space with an expansive bar that overlooks their brewing vats. Its sheer size makes it perfect for their live music sessions every Tuesday and Saturday. Sample any of their small-batch brews or grab a growler to go."

"This beloved kitchen was started by Ruth Anne Schriefer nearly 20 years ago. Today, her daughter Maddy is in charge of the changing plates and cocktails. But her breads and pastries are the main attractions here, often selling out within an hour of opening (and even earlier on the weekends)."

"This restaurant is small, cozy and still owned by a local family. They are located off the main Niagara Stone Road that you’d likely be driving on to the old historic town. Here they grow some of the berries, herbs or veggies that they use in their menu."

"Silversmith Brewing Company is also located in Virgil, across the street from The Twisted Vine and The Pie Plate. The Niagara on the Lake brewery first opened its doors on Canada Day in 2012. Silversmith Brewing Company was originally conceived by two friends while on a rock climbing trip in Nevada."

"This new independent craft brewery is located just outside town in Virgil, in a gorgeous old church that dates back to the 1890s, with exposed beams, brick walls and a vaulted ceiling. Opt for a flight to try their top beers."

"Co-founders Greg Gnys and Joe Sartor dreamed up a brewery concept based on a fusion of two ideas that ended up coming together in a rather serendipitous way. Counterpart Brewing’s Hospitality Manager Eric Klein shared, “Greg was moving home from Burnaby, British Columbia to fulfill his dream of opening a local community focused brewery in his home town of Niagara Falls while at the same time Joe was moving home from Vancouver to open up a restaurant of his own. After learning through family members who worked together in Niagara that not only were they moving home for similar purposes but at almost the exact same time a meeting was set."

"Craft beer fans looking to find entertainment on a cold winters eve should pop by Oast House Brewers for a pint and ping pong play. Oast House offers a drool-worthy collection of premium farmhouse ales (the Saison and Dark’ass Ale are my faves) which are best enjoyed while paddling back and forth with a friend at the brewery’s lone ping pong table. Oast House also has a tiny kitchen which features a rotating pop up concept which on my visit featured freshly shucked oysters and crunchy polenta fries."

"The Oast House is host to great beer and a down-home vibe that will make for an enjoyable evening and a cool photo session. Stand under the lights outside this barn-inspired brewery during your night out in Niagara and snap a photo that will suggest you’ve headed out into the country – even though you’re just relaxing at one of the coolest spots in the heart of Niagara."
