In 1989, founder Michael Lanigan sparked the Brewsters revolution, well ahead of the small-batch brewing craze. Now a second-generation family business, their batches may have grown, but the fiery passion remains unchanged. It's a simple yet potent formula: fuse meticulously brewed beer with an unparalleled dining adventure. This alchemy has propelled Brewsters to its current standing - one of Alberta's most enduring local breweries, with eight vibrant restaurants spread across the province. Get ready to taste the legacy, feel the thrill, and join the Brewsters journey!

    I know that the renovations here are a couple of years old, but they hold up well and create a fun and open atmosphere. It makes for a cleaner, more modern look. The food was pretty good and the service was good too. It is a good place to come and have a private conversation that others won't be listening in on. There is so much seating inside and outside that you can be assured of getting a table. PRO TIP- This establishment is accessible from the BACK of the mall next to the lake entrance.

    My wife and I popped into the Bonavista location of Brewster's for a burger and a beer. We both chose the Brewster's burger which in one of my favorites in town. It is a great burger, and the fries are shoestring and always delicious. This chain is very consistent and always a good choice. Service was excellent as expected, quick, friendly and professional.

    I miss the constant smell of Nilodor at the front door area and carpet, ha ha. Nice renovations. We just went for the first time in 4-5 years. Wings were great, beer was good and fresh. I have one question, who puts beef, pork and veal in a meatloaf? First time I have come across it and really did not enjoy it.

    More often than not, have to wait at least 45 minutes to receive cold food. Beers are continually short-poured (16 oz servings should be right to the rim of the glass or ALGC will issue a warning.) Servers often do not do a quality check. Wing prices are the highest in SE Calgary at (.89 each) and they are the skinniest wings I have seen. Quality of food and attitude of servers is lacking.

    Beautiful local pub with great servers and amazing service and cool vibes. I have been to Brewsters but not this one before. The server (sorry forgot the name) was amazing, she told us about happy hour. She suggested us the food and came to ask how the food is tasting right away after couple of bites!! She kept coming back and asking if we need anything? People were very nice and smiling This is a beautiful place for locals
