Food was good, if a bit pricey.
This converted railway station misses the mark as a good restaurant primarily because the room is cavernous and all hard surfaces, and consequently VERY noisy. The soup of the day was corn and bacon chowder - very flavourful but almost too rich with floating oil/grease. My main was a chicken club but it fell short primarily because the bread was not toasted. Instead it appeared to be grilled in a large amount of butter, rendering it very greasy and rich. Overall not outstanding as a brew pub, rather run-of-the-mill.
Quite nice place. Patio is perfect, but indoors is a bit dark and dimly lit. Nice beer and good food, bit pricey for the area though.
Atmosphere is really cool, the beer is wonderful (I love Picaroons, and the cocktail ales!). However my partner and I ordered a snack board for $16. The menu said that it would have pretzel bread, mustard, pickles, cheese, cured meat etc. We thought wow for $16 it'll be big enough to almost fill us. It came on a tiny wooden board and contained no pickles or cheese. There were about 5 pieces of prosciutto & salami combined, a hard boiled egg, 3 pickled onions, 4 pieces of arugula, some pickled ginger, 4 tiny slices of hard crusty melba toast type things, and a small "swipe" of mustard, hard to dip anything into. I waited till our server walked by and asked if maybe we got the wrong order, as it was quite small and missing some key ingredients. The waitress said "no that's right" and started to walk away but I kept talking and said "It's missing cheese and pickles.." The waitress tried to say that the 3 tiny pickled onions counted as pickles... She did acknowledge that there was no cheese on the board. She took it back to the kitchen. It came back with a few more slices of melba toast things and 4 slices of brie. My fiance and I were planning on staying for more beers and food but decided to end it there because we wondered if the portions on everything else would be just as disappointing. Our bill was $40 and I have definitely gotten more food elsewhere for that price. The server also seemed she was annoyed that we even called her over. Disappointing, I probably won't go back. Which sucks because I love Picaroons especially when it's on tap! Oh well. Now to buy more food because I'm not even close to full!
Beer sampling assortment was nice.
Acoustics in this place are horrible.
Not sure what would be the best solution. A lot of egg cartons on the ceiling?
Don't count on us to be back very often during the winter unless they can fix the booming sound issue.
Staff was friendly and helpful.
We had to go outside to hear ourselves think.
Pity, since it is currently the only ok pub in Saint Stephen.
Food has great flavor ....however the portion size is very very small. My friend took me to dinner there and we had to go out to eat afterwards. Bring a heavy wallet because you will need to order appetizers and dessert and probably still hit the drive up window someplace afterwards.
Unfortunately, then it got cold, so we reluctantly went back inside during our meal.
