“My husband and I hosted our welcome party for our wedding weekend with Queen City. We held the party in their awesome event space. Jason and his team were absolutely great to work with. Not only was the beer a ten (a given with these folks), our bartender for the evening was friendly, knowledgable, and kept the drinks flowing to our group of 50.The space itself is also awesome - plenty of room for a group, fun games and decor, and even a retractable garage style door to let in fresh air, which we were actually able to make use of as it was unseasonably warm the night of our late October party. They were also kind enough to let us use their audio and mic system, which came in handy for background music and a few short toasts.If you are looking for a variety of easy drinking to packs a bunch beers, friendly & kind folks, and an awesome place to host or just stop in for a brew, Queen City has it all covered. Thanks again!!“

“Cool local brewery with a pub and a pizza sections, plus a surprisingly diverse merchandising area (from caps to t-shirts to frisbees). They have around 5-6 different local beer types, so don’t expect crazy variations, but they are unique and tasty enough, plus prices are quite OK. The pizza is also tasty and large. The staff was friendly and fast in serving“

“Tonight we are staying @ Weird Window Brewing (Harvest Hosts) - Liam was our bartender & host. Chris had a flight & I had their cider. Their cider was delicious and Chris really enjoyed the jalapeño cream ale: “CERSEI'S WILDFIRE”. Convenient location + great beer selection = great Harvest Hosts stop!! 🍻🏕️🍻“

“Just had lunch here even though neither my husband or I drink beer. It's a holiday weekend and we didn't want to deal with the crowds. Boy, will we be returning. Pub menu is limited, but everything sounded good. We each got something different and split it. Both were delicious. Also, the Staff is super friendly! As for the beer, there were several people partaking and the City Brew Tours van was there so I'm thinking that must be good also.“

“Good food and beer. Large dinning area“

“Stopped here for lunch while exploring downtown Burlington, glad we did.

Sat outside on a perfect fall day. Staff were friendly and professional and attentive without being too much.

Wife and I both got salad and mini-flatbreads. Combined with a beer and you have a perfect lunch.

The salads were delicious and perfectly dressed. The flatbreads were delicious, with a wonderful crust and a variety of creative toppings.

The beers were amazing as well. When we return to Burlington, we will come back here for sure.“

“Great beer. Great pies! Great service!“
