10 Best Craft Breweries near Kanata

“My son wanted to give Big Rig Ogilvie a 5 ⭐️ rating! He loved it and the food was amazing and the waitress was great, service was super fast!“

“We were told to seat ourselves and waited 15 minutes before a server came to our table. Once we ordered it was another 30 minutes for our food. Only 1 server was working and the place was busy. Food was excellent however service could have been better.“

“The food is excellent and the service is A1. We were given a tour of the Beer Brewing process and there is far more to making beer than we had any idea of. Thank you for the tour. We love coming here.“

“What an awesome spot in the heart of the country.

We had the pleasure of popping by for a quick pint that turned into two pints while we watched the Jays game.

The lovely Marie and Dominic kept the establishment open later than posted as the game went into extra innings.

The Jays won and we all went wild!

What a great afternoon! Thank you!!!❤️“

“Love this place! The new food menu is fantastic — everything we tried was fresh and full of flavor. The craft beers are just as amazing as ever, with tons of variety and something for everyone. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and always a good time. Highly recommend! 🍻“

“Whiprsnapr has quickly become my favourite brewery in Ottawa. The beer is fantastic, the pizza is delicious, and the staff are second to none. Every visit feels welcoming, and the entire team, including owner Ian, goes out of their way to make you feel right at home.

I've lived in West Ottawa for the past three years, and places like this are what make me appreciate the community I live in. It genuinely feels like a neighbourhood gathering place where everyone is welcome.

I can't say enough good things about Whiprsnapr. Whether you're stopping by for a pint, a pizza, or just a friendly atmosphere, I would highly recommend it to anyone.“

“Beer and food are really good. The service is great! The live music has been very good. I've had a great time every time I go.“

“I consistently have an absolutely outstanding experience here. From the moment I walk in, the service is warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming — the kind of hospitality that makes you feel like a regular even on your first visit. Every team member is always invested in making the night special, and they absolutely delivered. Much gratitude to Jordan, Ashley & team for next level service & delicious food for my daughter’s baby shower. If you’re looking for a place that combines exceptional service with incredible food, fir dinner or a special event this is it. Highly recommend!“

“Fantastic old-school-style brewery (reminded me when craft breweries started) with a great variety of beer on tap. We also got an impromptu tour and sampled many different options.

Loved the vibe and glad we checked it out - brought a selection of beer home too. Will definitely be back again!“

“A group of 12 retirees decided we would go to Iris location. Friday Lunch, fairly busy. Our Waitress, Gillian was excellent. She put up with the old folks that couldn't make a decision, was friendly and very organized. The food arrived fairly quickly. All orders accurate and presentation was beautiful. Congrats to the Kitchen staff, awesome job! Gillian just made the whole visit outstanding. Perfect amount of attention, not rushed or ignored. We will definitely be back.. Service fantastic... Food excellent, and very clean washrooms. Great visit!. Thank you...“
