Dan BrownAugust 10, 2014The brewery tour is a surprisingly good time and you get a healthy amount of beer to drink during the tour as well. Steam Whistle is a real fine brewery to support - make sure you leave with a case!
Jamie WagnerJuly 27, 2018Great tour, knowledgeable guides, good beer. While typically not a Pilsner fan, I found this beer very drinkable. So much so I ended up buying one at a blue Jays game the next day.
Ashley FernandesAugust 11, 2014Great place, free samples and you can go on a tour to learn about its history and production process with more free samples!
Mullica ZudsiriDecember 31, 2016The tour was great! But they're so popular so go ahead of time to book a spot and then hangout around the city. Super knowledgeable staff.
Frédérique BournotAugust 1, 2015The beer is great, and the tour is extremely entertaining and interesting. It's one of the best activities to do downtown, whether you're a tourist of not!
Colin BrownOctober 20, 2017Make sure to do the tour of the brewery, you learn so much and free bottle of beer!
Matt TaylorFebruary 9, 2016The tour is quite fun. Paying an extra five dollars for a six pack is really good value. Nice pretzels for a snack as well
SaraJune 2, 2014Use your first foursquare check-in for a free tour, beer and pint glass (show the cashier your check-in)! You can also get complementary samples while you wait!
Bálint BakóMay 21, 2015Downtown brewery with guided tours, great beer, nice staff and free samples. What more to ask for? :)
Emmet AdriaansOctober 30, 2012Great tour. Great price, and lots of free beer. Come on a full stomach, a girl on our tour passed out from lots of beer. Guides are super friendly. Say hi to Halen and Mary ;)
Linda 🌟September 4, 2015Free beer! Tours sell out fast. Friendly staff. Indoor beer hall and outside patio.
Shuvani BurtAugust 20, 2015Definitely do the brewery tour. Really interesting and you get free beer.
David HollowayAugust 23, 2014We had a lovely tour of the brewery. Our tour guide was very good. Great beer too.
Good beer, the tour's superb and the staff are brilliant. What more do you want?
Mathew GennaroJune 4, 2013Wonderful spot to go and have a drink! try the draft beer and if you want to do a tour pre-book to avoid disappointment
Bjorn RuysenApril 9, 2012David gave us the tour just an hour ago and it was great! Walking through the brewery with a good beer in your hand and a very funny guide was well worth the $10! Had a good time!
Thomas FletcherApril 23, 2014Go on the tour, excellent value for money and the beer tastes fantastic :-)
Brian CassDecember 31, 2014Went in to grab some glasses for a present and right away noticed the friendly staff offering me a sample half pint. Awesome place, although full of tourists
Jon DarveauDecember 28, 2012Really fun place staffed by people who really like their jobs. This is a great beer and a fun brewery to tour.

Jarvis EmeraldMay 15, 2011I won I won! :) and Free tickets to the UNSIGNED show AND the Brewery tour. When you take the tour I recommend getting a chance to pull the Steam Whistle! and come back to one of their local Art Exhib Read more
Laurence TaylorAugust 28, 2011If you come to Toronto this is a must. $10 for a tour, loads of beer and a free glass. They just make one pilsner and it's awesome. I could stay all day.
Knut-Olav HovenAugust 10, 2016Good beer. Nice location. Nice place. They have only one kind of beer, but it's good.
Chris SheltonSeptember 15, 2013Take the tour. Its well priced and pretty interesting. Also a great place to go before a Jays game.
Doors Open TorontoApril 2, 2013Did you know that the Steam Whistle Brewery used to be the home of The CPR Roundhouse, which serviced 50 trains a day? Come visit us during Doors Open on May 25-26, 2013!
Ryan BradleyAugust 16, 2011Going to a Jays game and looking to get drinks at a reasonable price? Check out the tour of the brewery tour before the game, it's interesting and drinks are cheaper than in the stadium!
Katherine ThompsonFebruary 29, 2016The tour is one of the best things to do in Toronto. Lots of free samples! Grab a pretzel too.- Tomas LegorretaOctober 2, 2015Great beer and great place to wait for the Jays game. Staff is friendly. There is only one type of beer though
Arnaud GelbJune 18, 2013What I miss the most about Toronto? A fresh and crisp pint of Steamwhistle. The beer (pilsner) is really good and touring the brewery is very interesting.
- Ron KeachieFebruary 21, 2017This place is a MUST GO TO" in Toronto. 4 th time not the last. Staff are soooo awesome !!!
R CAugust 24, 2014Cool factory-like place for partying. My first U of T nonalcoholic frosh party was held here. I remember they played Avril Lavigne's Girlfriend.
Mike O'SullivanAugust 16, 2015Phenomenal beer and educational tour as well! See if you can find the secret patio 🙊
Kevin VincentNovember 11, 2014Do the brewery tour. Do a brewery tour crawl if you have some free time on a saturday and like beer.
Doug BauderApril 17, 2013Great tour, good beer. They're generous with the samples on the tour and they're building is pretty cool too.
HeatherJuly 18, 2013Amazing tour even if you have a disability ! May not get to see the upstairs but they sure as hell take good care of you !- Danielle PalJuly 23, 2016Lovely tour of the brewery! Just wished I enjoyed the taste of steam whistle more.
- Kurtis MeisterOctober 15, 2016Cheapest place to drink. Offers some rotating tap options that they don't bottle. Basic food options but exactly what you need with a pint.
- Jarvis EmeraldMarch 1, 2012Take the tour! You will be impressed with how GREEN these guys are. Ask about the history of the building and enjoy the beer :)
Otelia Wentworth February 12, 2016“Great location, right below the CN Tower, and 4 dollar bottles are great too!”
Kyle MaceyApril 4, 2016Not sure if you'll like their beer? No worries! They'll give you a free sample!
Adam KempFebruary 23, 2012Come in, get a sample of their finest brew and take a tour! Also, it's best to go there before a ball game at the Skydome!
