Granite Brewery

“I had the pleasure of photographing a wedding here in summer 2025! The team was so kind, food was incredible and the back patio space has the coziest vibe! You kind of forget you're in the heart of the city. I have another wedding there in fall of 2026 and I'm counting it down! Look forward to working with you all again”

“We just had our wedding at Granite in September and the day went perfectly. The accommodating and relaxed environment of Granite and the staff just makes for a cozy and intimate environment. The perfect vibe for our wedding! We had 70 people in total and it was perfect. The fact that you can have a quiet garden ceremony, followed by a covered patio cocktail hour, followed by a dinner reception in the back dining room is so ideal. We did a buffet style reception and the food was a big hit, guests are still complimenting it weeks later. Drink service was super attentive. Shout out to Trish who was a familiar and happy face throughout the day. There was nowhere else in Toronto that we could have had this versatility in venue, quality of service, and a central Toronto location for the price. Super reasonable and Sam the GM consistently entertained all of my questions fast and professionally. Their FAQ online is also so helpful and transparent. Thank you Granite team!!!”

“Wonderful. Outdoor covered patio is the play. The food is very good. The service excellent. The beer OUTSTANDING. Thanks for keeping the beer real. Cask ales done right. So hard to find these days. We were a large party and had great service. I had the curry and pint special Which feels like a life goal to have for lunch often. Every person loved their meals. Hey. Management. Consider heading back a bit British. It’s missing meat pies and a great ploughmans.”

“My husband and I got married at the Granite recently and we had such a wonderful time that it's kind of hard to express how much we love this wonderful establishment and its people. The people: Firstly, Sam was our main point of contact for our wedding and from our first meeting, we knew that we were in good hands. He was responsive, friendly, and genuine whenever we spoke to him and we just knew we could trust him with our big day. We visited the Granite one day several months before our wedding to find that a renovation had happened unbeknownst to us and the reception area for our wedding looked quite different than what we had originally booked. When we reached out to Sam about it, he took the time to explain why the renovations were necessary (it made total sense), took accountability immediately, and made things right for us. It meant a lot to us that he didn't just dismiss us or argue with us, and it says a lot about how well he manages his family's business. In addition to Sam, everyone who works at the Granite is super lovely. Ryan, Tinna, Owen, and Ada are all super friendly and always provide amazing service. The feedback we got from our wedding guests was that the service was prompt and excellent. Unfortunately, one of our guests made a mess on the floor (we're so sorry) but the staff handled it so professionally and didn't mention a word of it to us. The food: The food at the Granite is amazing. All our guests raved about the food, including my picky mother! We went with Buffet 2 and both the chicken and beef were incredible. Both were perfectly cooked. Super tender and juicy - not dry at all. My go-to on regular days (not my wedding day) is the lamb curry which is so hearty, delicious and really spicy. Ironically, despite getting married at a brewery, I am not a big drinker but have quite enjoyed the Ringberry ale! They are also super accommodating and clear about dietary restrictions so if you have any vegetarians or people with allergies in your group, they are very easy to work with. Atmosphere + premises: From the outside you would never be able to tell how just how charming this place is. The indoor seating areas are just so cozy and the reception area is great for events. We also attended a trivia night once and it was a blast. The patio is really nice and overlooks a beautiful courtyard which is where we did our wedding ceremony + photos. I cannot get over how beautiful it looked out there with the white hydrangeas in full bloom. We also love how the washrooms are inclusive. Our guests appreciated that this was an all-in-one venue where you can do the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all in one location. No one wants a 3 hour gap between a church service and a reception at opposite ends of the city! Value: If you're looking for a wedding venue that can accommodate around ~100 ish, I highly recommend checking out the Granite. Every other venue we looked at was ridiculously priced with crazy additional fees. The Granite gives you everything you need without ever trying to upsell you or charge you for any extra stuff. It's all very clear from the beginning what you're paying for. I promise you won't be disappointed if you book your wedding with Granite. They really are the best team and my husband and I cannot thank them enough for their hard work in making our day so perfect. In summary: -great food -great staff -cozy + intimate atmosphere -beautiful courtyard -free parking -fun, inclusive events like drag brunches -ceremony, cocktail hour + reception all-in-one location What more could you ask for?”

“I've added this bar to my must-go list since moving to Toronto, and overall it was pretty good. We arrived around 5:30 pm, and there weren't many people; we couldn’t speak loudly because the whole bar was super quiet. We ordered Cobb salad and beet burger. My partner misread the beet burger as a beef burger, but he loved it so much! The Cobb salad I ordered was also great, with a lot of ingredients in the salad, and I didn’t even need dressing to taste rich enough. We also ordered a flight to try their beers, but half was plain. I especially liked their Ringberry ale, which was a rich, fruity taste and was not too sweet; very refreshing! The servers were amiable, and the decoration of the whole bar was very cozy. I wish they could play some music, tho! Because it was so quiet. Overall, great food, plenty of space, and clean toilets! We will be back next time!”
