Huether Hotel

A unique concept for this building. There’s the restaurant, a cafe, an on site brew your own, (both beer and wine), a bar with a huge patio, a billiards room.....shall I go on? I ate and drank in the restaurant which is actually in the old brewery. Nice ambiance supplied by the old brick and old brewery collectors items displayed everywhere. Beer was fresh and tasty. Food was simple and well prepared. Service efficient, but it did get a little slow towards the end of our visit, but that’s only a minor complaint.Worth a stop if you’re in the area. As an aside to this, you can go the the Crown Brewery retail shop in the same building, and they sell completely different beers than the bar or restaurant.

visited the Heuther upper restraunt barley works on a saturday afternoon around 1. WILL NEVER RETURN. we sat at a little table by the washrooms and were deafened by the WAY TOO LOUD band!?!?!??! what on EARTH is management thinking!?!??!?!? THEN the bartender and the waitress kept looking at us, whispering and snickering...this went on for the entire HOUR we were eating. VERY RUDE. These two girls have worked in this establishement for YEARS and i have no idea why. We will NEVER return, we do not need to go out for lunch and be snickered and whispered about by childish waitresses. Good bye Heuther, theres MANY places to take our money to

Always had great food - whether 2 of us or 10. Everything has always been great, other than the service. Everyone is nice, just too busy - but, if you go there expecting it, then it is a great experience and I don't hesitate to go to the bar and ask for things - quicker. I look forward to my next visit.

Mid week with 6 in our group. The cottage brewery had some great offerings to taste - very nice. Sat to enjoy the patio, but there was an faint underlying smell of a dumpster nearby or under the patio. Ordered the wings - asked for battered, came new York style, but still tasty. Waitress was long between visits, but friendly enough. A few simple elements would make this a great pub-style experience on the patio. Move the dumpster, speed up the service - probably could have drank another round if the waitress visited more frequent, and pay attention to the little detail. Will try this again sometime. Need to add wheelchair access to the upper levels.

Felt like sitting on a patio and enjoying a beer and a bite. Pizza was delious and was a fair price. The only negative I would say is that it was not hot when they served it and the beer was warm. I prefer cold beer and hot pizza but, all in all it was good. In my opinion this place is relaxing if you want a quick bite (pub food)and a good beer.

I could not bite into the rice crispie square because it was so old (seriously) and it seemed as though the waitresses thought they were too cool to care. Beyond the worst service I have ever received.

Disapointing expirience all around

The short of my review is that you and your money are too good for this establishment - and I don't even know you! The events which support my statement are described below.

My main dish, cedar plank salmon, was a disaster on all fronts - it was presented poorly and tasted worse than it looked. The salmon was placed on a sliver ridden board that was set atop a curious mount of yellow-tinted rice (at least that's what they said it was). The salmon was overcooked to the point that it chewy and bland, the flavour of the rice was akin to what I can only assume asphalt must taste like and was further accentuated by its chunky, congealed texture.

Thinking that things coudn't get any worse, my company and I went upstairs for coffee. The counter staff was abrupt, rude and unaccomodating...which, after talking with a few fellow patrons, is apparently the norm at the establishment.

Shocked to see all the bad reviews here - The Huether is where we always go when we have visitors and want to take them somewhere with a damned fine selection of moderately-priced beers and perfectly good food. They are linked to the Lion Brewery right next door, so always have a good selection of splendid beers on tap. The menu is great, and I've never been at all disappointed with anything I've ordered there. My only (minor) issue with the service would be that they're often very overworked, always busy, always rushed!I'm an ex-Brit, so perhaps my beer is important to me and perhaps I'm used to far worse service? ;-)

Service was in no way good,
