Toronto's Best: Craft Beer Destination

Craft Beer Destination
9 spots make the list in Toronto · ranked by Restaurantica's craft beer destination scoring evaluation
Outstanding
Bellwoods Brewery
9.1Bellwoods is most useful to diners as a craft-beer stop: Jelly King, Jutsu, Roman Candle, PIG IPA, Bellweiser, Helles, and reserve bottles create several clear paths. There is food for the visit, but the beer list is the reason to choose it.
Amsterdam Brewhouse
8.8House beers, rotating taps, flights, and beer-paired dishes make the brewery side a central reason to visit.
Left Field Brewery (Liberty Village)
8.4This is first a brewery room, not a restaurant that happens to pour craft beer. The official Liberty Village guide lists 16 draught lines, brewery-only releases, beer flights, and a Cold Beer Store, while the food menu is built to sit beside pints and game nights.
Left Field Brewery (Leslieville)
8.9A beer-first Leslieville taproom with a current list that spans headline cans, darker beers, and non-alc options.
Burdock Brewery & Music Hall
8.6Burdock earns the beer card because the brewery is not a side feature; it is the room's centre of gravity. The house identity runs through food-friendly pale beers, lagers, Grape Ales, beer-wine hybrids, and a menu built to sit beside those glasses.
Excellent
WVRST
9.1WVRST is built for beer-led dining: sausages, fries, pretzels, fondue, and a deep beer and cider list all point toward a casual beer-hall visit rather than a standard pub meal.
Collective Arts Toronto Taproom
8.3Collective Arts works best when the beer program is part of the meal. The Dundas room carries the brewery identity into a taproom format, with happy-hour lager and selected beers alongside tacos.
Steam Whistle Kitchen
9.2Treat the meal as part of the brewery visit: start with Steam Whistle Pilsner, then build the first order around wings, mussels, a pretzel, or a burger.
