Grat service from Ian and Jacob. Best burgers my wife and I have ever had. Highly recommend. Can't wait to go back.

Tried to visit, the staff was rude since the welcoming to partner and me, kinda looking us weird, I was asked to move of table in bad way due a confusion with their washroom sign (the have tables downstairs where the washrooms are), we decided not to ruin our evening by staying there, still not sure if this was a bad day for them or they have something against minorities, LGTB community. Definitely not giving a second try.

Really bad experience, my partner and I went there to have a couple of drinks and food, our first time having high expectations about that place, but We were told by a male server (by the way He saw us like We were different) to go downstairs because the place was crowded, We got a confusion because thought downstairs were washrooms, so We decided to sit down on a table beside downstairs, a female server approached to us asking in rude manner to go downstairs, so We just decided to leave. Really disappointed for lack of customer care and probably minority discrimination

Awesome staff!! Great vibe! Vegan wings are a 10, the pastrami spiced ones are the best! Awesome fries, sweet potato fries, great salads just omit the cheese, vegan cheese burger, and the smoked pastrami mushroom sandwich is great. Always excellent!

I always come here and always had good service and beer. Tonight the lady server with a greysh flanel and reddish hair was so rude. Other servers have been as good as always.
Definitely a great spot for their blueberry beer and my favourite, the crab Rangoon dip!

The Merchant ale is an amazing restaurant that provides incredible service, food, and beverages. The lovely server, Shelly, gave my family and I an experience we won’t forget (and haven’t been able to stop talking about since).It was our first time at this restaurant and we weren’t very decisive on drinks, so Shelly offered us a sample of the beers we inquired about. She then proceeded to check-in on us and our experience by constantly offering refills or anything else we needed. We’ll definitely be returning to the Merchant solely for Shelly’s service alone. It’s a bonus that the food was incredible. Probably some of the best restaurant food I’ve had in a long time.Overall, the staff and atmosphere is amazing and I cannot express enough about how the vibes were like we had been there a million times already. Definitely an experience I look forward to having again.

We had just arrived and the “bouncer” kicked out our Asian friend even though he was not under the influence, saying the “bartenders don’t want to serve you because you’re too drunk” and that was it. Considering it was a group of gay men we have a feeling it was a combination of homophobia and anti Asian racism. Would not recommend it you want to relax and have a drink at night.

A hidden gem in St. Catherine's! Great vibes in an elevated brewery where everything is excellent across the board- food? Excellent. Service? Excellent? House-made brews? EXCELLENT. The historic building adds to a cozy and welcoming atmosphere where it's easy to lose track of time. Must visit for anyone in the St. Catherine's area.
