Reviews
Amsterdam Brewhouse is an absolute must-visit in Toronto! The service was perfect—friendly, fast, and incredibly efficient from start to finish. The beer selection is outstanding, and in my opinion, they serve the best beer in Toronto. The location is unbeatable, with breathtaking waterfront views that are easily the best in the city. Great atmosphere, amazing food, and an unforgettable experience. I’ll definitely be coming back!
I'll start first with my reason for 3 stars for service. Our group of three was next in line (after waiting for three groups ahead of us) to be seated. We were waiting for hostess to come back to front desk. A couple came in and instead of waiting in line behind us went to a server at desk and asked to go in and sit at bar. We feel that she should have asked them to wait or if she could sit people should have helped us first. It was very rude of her. If it wasn't for this individual our review would be better. We did let hostess know. Otherwise our server (in bar area) was good, food and drinks were enjoyable and watching World Cup Football on the many screens made for a great atmosphere.
One of my favorite places in Toronto! The location is beautiful, with an incredible view of Lake Ontario and a great patio to enjoy the summer. The restaurant is also spacious inside, with lots of TVs if you want to catch a game. The staff were very friendly, the service was quick, the beer selection was excellent, and the food was outstanding. Everything about the experience was great. I’ll definitely be back!
This place is fun and a good time with friends. The staff is extra friendly and helpful. Great if you're stopping in for drinks after like a game or before something coz they are pretty pricey. The food, however, leaves a lot to be desired. Cheeseburger was bland and about the most expensive plain cheeseburger I've ever had. The rice in the chicken bowl tasted old and sticky and dry and cold, all at the same time. Mac and cheese was also pretty mid. Better to just hop in for the drinks and vibes coz the staff is world-class and it's fun!
This was our second visit, and we booked in advance—which I’d definitely recommend since it gets quite busy and helps you avoid waiting in line. Gabi took care of us and was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and made the experience better overall. The beer was decent, though I expected a bit more given that it’s brewed in-house. The cheeseburger was well done but still juicy, and the seasoning was great. The chicken, however, was a bit chewy and the sauce lacked the flavor I was hoping for. The fish and chips were better than the chicken, but still could have used more seasoning. Portion sizes were generous, which is a nice plus. The view of Lake Ontario really elevates the atmosphere, and in the summer, the patio is definitely worth trying.
