Irwin Brewing Company's Public House

Food is great, service is not. Our waitress talked to the table next to us casually for 5 minutes while our appetizer took 35 minutes. If she was doing her job, she would have known that and communicated with the kitchen. Then when our entrees came out, only 3 were delivered while the other 2 took 10 minutes. She never came by to check on us, ask if the food was ok. But she had no problem socializing.

Great food, very nice old fashioned and super-nice folks. Sam knows all the fun stuff and even if you can't be a local, for an hour you can live the dream.

The beer and Mexican corn dip was delicious. Sydney, our wait person, was very helpful in helping us choose our beers.

The food here was mediocre at best. Husband ordered poutine as an appetizer; instead of cheese curds on top, it was melted cheese. Gravy was a sauce. It was okay but it was not traditional poutine. We ordered the fish and chips and a pulled pork sandwich and intended to split them. Two small pieces of fish which were okay. But the pulled pork sandwich was terrible, not barbecue flavor, tasted like chili. A co-worker also ordered this and thought the same. The server was great and she did give us a discount on the sandwich since I didn't eat it. Won't try this place again.

For some reason Google has this as a Hotel. It's a brewery/restaurant. We had a fantastic meal. Ordered the PH burger and it was excellent as were the fries. The highlight for me was the Mexican style Lager. Easily the best beer I have had in the last few years. Enjoyed it so much I purchased a six pack to take home!
