About Ward 1 Brewing Co.

Ward 1 Brewing Co. is a gem of a restaurant that specializes in top-notch smoked meats and BBQ. Their platters, featuring brisket, ribs, pulled pork, and sausage, are a highlight, paired with delicious sides like coleslaw, sweet potato fries, beans, and mac and cheese. The brisket is particularly praised for being perfectly seasoned and smoky, while the pulled pork sandwich is noted for its juiciness and rich flavor. The fries are crispy, seasoned, and clearly made fresh, adding to the overall experience. The owners are kind and appreciate customer feedback, and the service is good, although it can be slow at times. The interior is contemporary and clean, making it a welcoming local spot. With a daily specials board and a maximum capacity of 40 occupants, the atmosphere feels cozy and inviting. While the brewing side is not yet available, the cold beer and great food make it worth a visit, especially for those traveling between Guelph and Fergus.

If you’re looking for a fantastic barbecue experience, Ward One Smokehouse and Brewery is the place to be! From the moment you walk in, the welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff make you feel right at home.

The food? Absolutely delicious. Generous portions ensure you leave satisfied, but it’s the flavors that truly set this place apart. The brisket is hands-down the best I’ve ever had—tender, smoky, and packed with flavor. The smoked beans are perfectly seasoned,...read full review
