We decided on this place for my friends birthday dinner gathering. We all live in complete opposite directions and always end up in Newmarket for our meet ups. I found this place pretty easy to find. Although I don't really spend much time in Newmarket the main street it was located on was very welcoming and gave you that small town feel. My friend has been wanting to try this place since it opened and the reason of course is because of the nature of the business. Being a brew hop means lots of beer.. and if anyone knows us girls we enjoy our beer! I decided on the Russian Stout. I enjoy all types of beer but I love my Guinness.. you would think I'd be Irish or something but nope just a girl who fell in love with that beer while visiting the country! Ok back to the main topic I chose that beer to see and compare. I felt this beer to be more smooth with a hint of coffee flavour.
My friends also decided on some appetizers. One ordered the brussel sprouts and another friend ordered the bacon popcorn. Both were very tasty and had a unique flavour. For my main I ordered the Kale Beet Salad with chicken. My friend ordered the same dish with steak. I enjoyed my meal and cleaned up my plate while my other friend found the dressing to be a little sweet. I enjoyed the combination of the beats on the salad with the goat cheese and all the other fixings. I found they were paired nicely.
We were completely stuffed and didn't have room for dessert. Instead we enjoyed a lovely tea over some more chit chat. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone in and around the area. The service was great, the atmosphere was comfortable and the food got nothing but complements that night.
