Been here a couple of times and always enjoy the atmosphere. Decent tap beers which rotate ( I tend to like fruity ones and appreciate that it’s not always the same one on the menu). Food is average. The poutine, which is my usual is pretty good. Great places, will definitely be back!

In town on a visit and we picked this spot and wow! The beer was delicious and so was the food. Must eat place. The Ruben was the best I ever had and the best homemade dips ever! Real fries and Nashville chicken to die for. All washed down with the blueberry wheat beer

This was probably my 50th time here over the years but I've never left sober enough for a review! Had a lovely lunch here last Friday. The staff was amazing, the ambiance is cozy, in-house beer is fantastic, food was great! (See pictures attached). Rumoured to be haunted, the ghost stories only add to the charm!!!

Great beers on tap. Good food too. The highlight of my visit was the blue cheese mushroom burger. Would definitely go back.

We had a great time at Merchant Ale House! The beer here is excellent—my wife and I each got a flight, and while we enjoyed everything we tried, the Blueberry Wheat and Sunset Glow were absolute standouts. Super flavourful, refreshing, and unique. The food was just as impressive. I had the Brisket Burger, which was delicious—tangy, spicy, and packed with flavour. My wife ordered the Buffalo Cauliflower Sandwich and loved it. The cauliflower was crispy, perfectly cooked, and had just the right amount of kick. Great beer, great food, and a chill vibe—definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area!
