Indie Alehouse Brewing Co.

We came to Indie Alehouse on Monday night for a free comedy show. We really enjoyed the beer. Very nice flavours and plenty of variety to choose from. I like the restaurant decor and layout. Nice place in the west end of downtown and not far from High Park. I had the wings and fries and my friend ordered the mushroom pizza. The food was delicious and tasty. The only downside is the wings were quite small and not much meat. Otherwise, great place and I will be sure to come back again to try some other beer and food.

Located in the heart of the Junction, The Indie Alehouse is a popular Brewpub with locals in the area. I recently dropped by for first time during lunch hour, and similar to all restaurants in the area, it's wasn't busy during this time so there were plenty of seating and reservations were not required. However, evenings and weekends can be quite busy, but reservations can be made via OpenTable. I ordered the Burger of The mouth with a side of salad, while my friend ordered the Indie Fried Chicken Platter. I personally found the burger and salad to be quite delicious. The beef patty was juicy, with all sauces and ingredients complimenting each other nicely. My friend on the other hand, found the chicken a little dry, and the coleslaw warm, and soggy. The restaurant had a cozy laid back feel at this time, contrary to the loud and lively evenings. The hostess/server was attentive, friendly, and efficient. She let us sit anywhere we wanted when we arrived given the quieter afternoons, and she knew the menu well.

Last time I was at Indie Alehouse was during a craft beer crawl with some friends pre-COVID. This time was for a friend's birthday dinner. I didn't have any beer as I generally try to drink less these days, but my friends love the beer here, and wow was the food great. I got the fried chicken sandwich which was delicious, and the popcorn with rosemary Parmesan is a must try. Atmosphere is great here! Would definitely recommend.

Excellent birthday lunch for our Toronto based twin kids! Great pizza, burgers and beer - a winning combination. Very friendly and attentive staff. Admittedly, I was sad to have missed the Sunday waffle special. An earlier visit will be needed next time! Well worth a visit. S,L,S,M,D,S,C & J May 5,2024

Decent beer and a warm, cozy atmosphere, but the experience was dampened by the staff. The wait staff seemed uninterested and didn’t offer even a simple smile, which made the service feel cold. A little friendliness would go a long way in complementing the otherwise nice vibe.

Who doesn't enjoy indie alehouse? It's a classic! You can get lightly upscaled pub fare and some nice microbrews in either a classic industrial or on a sunny patio. The service has always been good and the food and drinks punctual. Currently on the menu, the nachos especially slap. The candied jalapenos and pickled red onions add amazing depth to a fave pub food. As far as the beer goes, you can't go wrong if you find yourself with a Marco Polo!

They have a variety of beers and you can have them customize a flight for you, just tell them what you like. I would strongly recommend if you are looking to try some new beers or you are just tired of making decisions! The food was also really good. The menu had a perfect variety of options whether you wanted your own meal or to share with friends!

Good food, cool and friendly hipster wait staff, relaxed and cool vibe, nice aesthetics, unpretentious decor, usual crowd would be older millennials, late 20s to mid 30s to early 40s. Unfortunately, we don't drink, so can't comment about the ale and beer, but food has always been really good. Highly recommend the truffle polenta appetizer, pizza are good but not mind blowing, shrimp balls were really bad though.., starchy and tough, can't taste anything like what it was supposed to be, quite disappointing. Fried chicken and burgers were always good and so are the other mains. Service is efficient and knowledgeable. We really enjoy coming here despite not not drinking ale or anything alcohol. Everything we ordered was really good except for the beignets, those were unfortunately dry and pasty. Place was hopping as usual. But... The washrooms were so dirty and off putting for such a cool place. Hope someone will address this.
