40 Simcoe St, Collingwood, ON L9Y 1H6, Canada
An arty and adventurous brewery + restaurant located in a restored heritage building in downtown Collingwood. Features house-made craft beer, a fun-loving menu, and a takeout bottle shop.
Our first visit and hit the Oktoberfest menu. Cold lager was terrific. Those zucchini corn fritters are absolutely amazing!!! So rich that you have to share with someone else. Had the mushroom sandwich for lunch and was so fresh and tasty. Great service and nice patio. Our only complaint was that the music was a bit too loud on the patio where most people were with kids or friends trying to talk. Was not our style music either being Gen Xers so maybe we are too old. Ha ha. But we will be back.
I had the Blacken Snapper Sandwich and the Jerk Chicken Poutine. Overall food tasted great and the server was extremely nice.
The cutest little spot! When you are in Collingwood, you HAVE to try Black Bellows! Great food, awesome brews, games, atmosphere, they have the whole package!
Awesome place to have a refreshing beer and a snack. Great atmosphere and a cool team to serve and answer questions.
It's finger licking good. The nachos are delicious. Too bad you can't refill your non-alcoholic drinks. It's a very amazing place, must recommend to others.
UPDATE: The Korean Corn Dog is no longer on the menu. We want it back! Great beer made on site for all tastes, bar tender really knows the beer. All staff were friendly and helpful with suggestions, and service (food and drink) quick. Atmosphere was very comfortable, inside and out. Food options good and great tasting. (Corn dog and Pretzel Bread in photos, and half the taps)
Food is excellent, fries were awesome house cut. Bahn Mi sandwich had great flavour but would hope for more mushrooms in it. Cod sandwich also very good. All around great experience and would reccomend. Update: Not sure what has happened to this place but the food has gone way downhill since our last visit. The pretzels with cheese sauce are flavourless, didnt even taste like cheese at all. And the poutine i ordered was fry soup.
Luv Black Bellows Brewing, amazing craft beer that they brew in-house, although a simple food menu, food comes quick and paired well with the beer offerings. Portion & pricing are reasonable as well. Let me emphazie how amazing the staff here. Everyone is hardworking, from the hostess to our server, they were all very friendly and accommodating. The inside dining area is nice especially the bar area. However, during our 1st visit, we opted for the patio area as it's a beautiful day, some nice breeze and we have our dog which this establishment is dog friendly and will accommodate at the outdoor patio. If you want to try many of its beer options, you can order the beer flight. We really enjoyed the wheat beer, the Japanese lager called Yabai and a beer that has wheat beer with elderflower. We also ordered a bunch of tall boys to drink at our cottage nearby. These beers are easy to drink, smooth, great finish and amazing ingredients.
Crowded happy vibe. Beer brewed on site is amazing. I m a big fan of their High Street ESB and their Nitro stout. The menu is funky but nourishing. Definite Collingwood hangout.
Before I give the bellows a five . If I m a patron it very rude to say we have a cover change it bought out you must leave . I was in the music industry in the 1970s bars allowed people to stay if the patrons and paid . Cover charges for bad entertainment come on please wake up business go down with this
Great beer, service, music and atmosphere. Definally will come back.
Food and beer was great highly recommend checking it out
Went with my real estate son to celebrate a deal. Really like the friendly staff and relaxed environment plus the salads and Hapoy Hour snacks were exactly right!
Great atmosphere, food and drinks were fast and delicious, and the staff was SO much fun! Highly recommend
Nice atmosphere. Good food and drinks.
The Parlour Room was absolutely perfect to hold our recent 30th anniversary celebration. The staff were amazing, food and beers were great, and Jose was so accomodatng. Sincere thanks for making our reunion so special!
Always great food and service. The High Street is an awesome beer and the Sriracha Maple chicken sandwich is incredible.
Amazing food, beers, even put the leafs game for us. Would definitely recommend. It was a pleasure
Great beer and drinks. Highly recommend the Pineapple express.
Came here as part of a bachelorette and the vibe sucked and the waitresses were rude.
Hannah is great. Service 10/10 and the food was stellar. Great hidden gem.
Best craft beer in town! Highly recommend
Good beer. Food was pretty decent. My snapper sandwich was very tasty. My family all ordered the maple chicken sandwich. Unfortunately the chicken was dry. The service was quite slow, despite it not being busy. All in all, I would come back for the beer and maybe just order some appetizers next time.
Went with 6 friends to check this place out. Absolutely amazing !! The menu is phenomenal, and the staff is incredible! The quality of the food and beer was impressive. Definitely going back! I only wish it was closer to me . Like next door close lol.
probably one of the best burgers I ve had in a while! I got the smash burger, and my boyfriend got the Benny burger. We also loved the beer, and the service was great.
This restaurant is one I will be coming back to. It has the best beer in town and great service!
Beer and servers were great as usual but disappointed in the menu. Korean corn dog and crispy fish sandwich were really fun pub fare but no longer on the menu. Tried the pork wontons for 18 dollars and got 4 deep fried wonton wrappers with some fried pork on top. Nachos were good. Had lots of cheese layered in them. Still miss the old favourites. Will go back to buy beer.
Great food, great bar and excellent staff.
The food was quick got seated quick. Nice view of the town. Washroom are clean. Very many options for dietary options
Second time being here , first time the service was extremely slow. There was only one guy hustling and everyone else was just standing around chatting and making excuses. I ordered a flight of beer thinking it would be like anywhere else, ..it s less than a pint total and costs way more , not really sure how that makes any sense ? Especially since it s your brewery and you sell entire cans for much less..no reason why 15oz of beer should be close to 15$ before tip. Also considering the pints are 9.50.. just being cheap imo. So I decided to come back and try again , the jerk poutine we got was actually really great for the price and was super good ! The girl who served us was quicker and super nice. So we ordered the roasted red pepper bruschetta appetizer which is 16$ before tax and tip what arrived was 4 pieces of stale bread with some tomato on top lol. No red pepper and no where near justifiable for that price. And if this is a supplier cost issue with you guys then maybe go to the grocery store , idk. There s no planet where I should be paying 20$ all in for 4 little pieces of bread with tomato and not to mention no sight of the roasted red pepper part lmao so honestly after these two times I won t be back , clearly just taking advantage of a limited choice of places to go in collingwood and jacking up prices for some items way too high.
Duck wings are great. Service was friendly and fast.
My wife and I enjoyed chatting with the staff, ordered an appetizer, a White and an El 9 Wye and loved it all. 100% wish you were 6 hours closer to our home!
I ate here and and there was a lovely young man working ther fryer and he whipped up the tastiest thickest beffiest burger. it was DECENT!!!! 6.2/10
Was in the Collingwood area for the weekend and stopped in for a couple beers and a pretzel. Not only were the beers (and food) very good, but the beer selection was excellent so picked up some cans on my way out so I could try out the whole range of offerings. Would go back any time Im in the area, great mix of atmosphere and quality brews.
Third stop on a brewery tour. Beer wasnt good. Food wasnt good. Service wasnt good. Will not be returning.
Great food, great people, great art. Definitely recommend you come here with your friends, family or even for a business event.
Great Beer, Great Vibes worth a visit
The food is amazing, so good and the place has great vibe.Everyone is nice and kind too.Great place to go to
First visit here. Greeted promptly by a friendly lady. We shared nachos and quite enjoyed them. Our beers also did not disappoint. Cheers
Very professional staff. Fish burger is 10/10 And the beers are always great.
Had a great time, great beer,great service, kevin was amazing
Nothing HAS to be this good in a small town because people will go no matter what, but this spot just happens to have phenomenal food. Smash burger is the first original take I ve had in years, so good
Good service. Nice product.
Stopped in yesterday for pint and a snack and wasnt disappointed. The braided Pretzels were delicious as was the German Pilsner.
Great drinks, great patio, family and doggo friendly
Great food. Awesome beer. Incredibly fast service. Our server Spencer was fantastic. Super friendly and helpful. I cannot recommend this place highly enough for anyone in the area.
Amazing place for their food, beers and the service. Staff are friendly and very welcoming. Well recommended.
There were 5 of us - my partner, his mum, his brother, me and our small daughter - a company that is not likely to get drunk. We shared beers (brother didnt drink - hes a teen), however, the waiter refused to serve my partner more beers, because he ordered 4 in one hour. I couldnt find any information about such restrictions on your webpage or anywhere online, so was really disappointed. Please, if you have such a policy, put it somewhere, cuz weve been to hundreds of places around the world and this was the first time we met such attitude.
The Kale Caesar Salad was amazing! They make homemade croutons. I always find the food here unique and very tasteful! Kudos to Chef Lee. Staff is always friendly and accommodating. The environment/space is very cool too
We came here for a friends birthday with about 14 people, I loved the games they provide it was a lot of fun to play some games while you re waiting for your meal with friends. Our sever Derek was amazing very funny and friendly! Definitely coming back next time we re in town! Absolutely worth a visit if you re in town.
Friendly staff, amazing atmosphere, good food and awesome brewski. Worth the visit. Cheers.
Fantastic evening, staff was great
Food was fantastic and great food its beyond our expectations,well done amazing
Derek is great. He made good suggestions and was overall great!
First time here and won t be the last! Cheers!
Interesting bar with a good selection of alcoholic drinks. Also typical hot and cold snacks. The ambience was stylish and the dining room was clean. The service was friendly and the service was on point. One star deducted because the beer I actually wanted was no longer available. But there were good alternatives :)
Excellent beer Excellent food...Excellent people
Cool vibe Great beverages Well priced menu The sliced steak was cooked to perfection Friendly service last sat night
Afternoon beers and breaded pickles with a great jammy spicy dip. Kevin always great as usual and friendly and knowledgeable about the area as well. Will return
amazing place and great service by spencer. The Fab lager was very tasty.
I had a great experience with my family the customer service and food was excellent. We ordered the chicken Schnitzel, the Kale Caesar salad and the Pretzel, and a few of the home brew beers. I would recommend this place if you are looking for some good old Comfort food.
Black Bellows has a great atmosphere and excellent beer and food. If you re in the Collingwood area, check it out!
Great place with awesome decor and a fab Elvis bathroom. Smash burger was good but didnt need the sweet onions.
Great fun, Tiffany was great, a bit pricey but that s what quality costs, funky corn dog, we ll be back
Surprised to see such an amazing menu. Food was amazing. Beer was great service was excellent.
Good beer, lot of selections, would recommend
Our visit was perfect. The servers vibe was so good we felt at home straight away. All beers are top notch. Food is great quality, down to the last dip!
Friendly staff and good service :) good atmosphere also food is also good try the Korean corn dog
We visited from out of town and Black Bellows did not disappoint. Amazing venue and warm welcome from the staff. Derek is an absolute champ! It s hard to find a good Bitter and Porter, and they delivered on both. Cheers team!
Great atmosphere. Really enjoyed having Spencer take care of us! Bought some bottles to take home because we loved it so much. Highly recommend
11/10 experience! Called the morning of to make sure they had room for a group of 20, very accommodating and friendly! Samantha was our server and she was great, we d definitely go back the next time we re in town
I would like to give a special mention to Spencer, our server on Saturday, he made our night with his great service and humour. It was my first time at the brewery, a beautiful welcoming space. I tried the Dunkel and enjoyed it. Would definitely return and try more of their offerings.
What a cool vibe and great food. For an old guy like me...it was actually a quiet restaurant.. the acoustics are great there. Check out the party room off to the side..what a cool design!
Beer was good, great ambiance. Food portions were tiny.
Was recomended to come here. Good food and beer. Vibes are pretty good. I would come back here if im around the area again.
The smash burger is bursting with flavour reminiscent of that one perfect burger that you wonder could it ever be this good again? Service was superb could be the sweetest server in town. Music was the perfect volume. Honestly: this place is a true 5-star. The light lager is fresh like you hope for: just imagine long bike ride, or a long work day and sip sip hooray. We cannot wait to come back.
The service and the food were good. They have some neat decorations around the place and the beer was decent.
Great food. Great atmosphere. Great beer. And best of all was the staff thanks Lindsay!
Great beer, food, and service.
Nice vibe and beer selection. The food looked amazing but unfortunately portions were a little small and very under seasoned, especially considering the high prices.
Really great atmosphere and food! Had the Cod Sandwich and added a side of beer cheese to my fries, totally worth it. Happy hour pints only $4.50 is an easy win. Definitely would recommend and will be back
Salads were amazing! Service was a 10/10. Great spot will be back.
Amazing place with great service. Kevin made our experience to be totally worth it we will be back
Amazing beer and super friendly staff, cozy place. We will be back to enjoy summer season but winter season was super good! 100% recommended
The Stout beer was very tasty! I also enjoyed the smash burger.
Stopped in for a pint.Had a Seasonal Brew Schlossberg excellent . Graves up some Merchandise.Great place,staff awesome.
I absolutely love this spot! From the vibes, to the service and the food and beer, everything was excellent. I will definitely be back to enjoy the patio this summer.
Great vibe and beer.
Lovely cheese tray, good sampling of craft beer. Tables have a bench style seating, which doesnt promote a long visit. But a nice place to drop by for a quick bite.
Smash burger is amazing, wings are really good. Hoison lime sauce on the wings were amazing. The chicken sandwich was to die for. We ate a lot. Service was super fast ,very friendly and so accommodating. This will be a regular for us.
Digital arm-wrestles Analog throughout this place... you gotta scan QR codes to get a drink list or search for the chalkboard scribbles above the taps. Im sure this Patio is the place to be at during those summer days, great location. Inside was a different story from the tiny & uncomfortable chairs to the awkward interior design layout & ultimately the food was overpriced for what was served.
Nice atmosphere. Friendly staff. Delicious porter nitro!
Fantastic beer and food. Service was quick and friendly. Definitely will visit again next time we are in the area.
We ve visited a few times and it s a perfect easy stop to grab a juicy burger and delicious beer in the summer or apres ski! Seemingly a secret little brewery that people should give a go if they re in the collingwood area!
Thank you Elka for the great service ! If you are looking for wonderful beer and casual atmosphere- this is the place - it s nice to see the live music from time to time !
Wide selection of craft beers. Food was fantastic. Our server (Hannah C) went out of her way to get a beer that we had specifically drove over to try and purchase. Both times we ve been to BBBC we ve come away impressed. We ll be back.
Great atmosphere and excellent service. House beers are awesome !
Amazing welcome, great service, will go back soon
Great beer and food. Definitely be back.
Affordable prices, excellent drinks and large portion sizes. Ordered the salmon bowl on the servers recommendation and it was delicious. The beer flights were small but allowed me to pinpoint which beer to purchase afterwards to go. Overall, very good experience.
Excellent food, reasonable prices. Great beer.
Service was fine other than bottomless popcorn came out with the food instead of before. It was also stale. Ordered a smash burger, couldnt even see the burger patty. Might as well been on the childrens menu. Should have gone to Brgz.
Big Buck beer was great! Smash burger and fries were also good. Staff were friendly and decor was nice (old building with beautiful exposed brick). Downtown parking was free on the weekend which was also nice.
The beer wasnt bad but the atmosphere was great and the food was amazing!
How this place is rated 4.5 is a mystery. Food is inedible and the service slow to nonexistent. Please go elsewhere in town. It s a trap!
Excellent beer. Good service. French fries were top notch. Food was otherwise a bit mixed in quality. My guess is that the burgers, sausages and chicken are precooked and assembled at plating without a final sear. Given they are charging premium prices for food, I think they could up their game here.
We dined on the patio for lunch. This was our first visit. The hummus dip tasted very fresh, and I liked how it was served with veggies and pita pieces.
First time and we were impressed. Great patio, Munich lager does not disappoint, shishito peppers were on point as was the crispy chicken salad. We will definitely be back.
Pet friendly patio, great beers and delicious food. Casual atmosphere in downtown Collingwood.
So it is 748pm on July 1. I arrived over 12 minutes ago with my dog who did not have a leash. They were very accommodating and brought me water immediately. However I sat for 10 minutes without any server. The servers went to other tables. People who came after me and took their order. I am very disappointed with this service.
Went to see Carole Pope. had a great time, great venue good beer
Rude attentive staff
Great food, drinks and vibe! Cool building and cute patio, and super friendly and helpful staff. The smash burger was delicious, and the beer flight came in adorable little glasses! Reasonable prices for the quality and quantity of food. We will definitely be back!
The wife and I were visiting the area and found this little gem. Great patio and excellent selection of beer and drinks. Had dinner and definitely cant go wrong with the blackened cod burger, smashed hamburger and the peach kale salad was outstanding... You cant go wrong in choosing this pub. We will be back for sure.
Very impressed with the service from Naomi today! We came in very hungry and she was prompt to take our order and food/drinks came out very quickly. She was so sweet and made my mom and I s time at Black Bellows such an enjoyable experience. Thanks Naomi and I hope she gets recognized for her hard work!
Good beer, good service, best nachos ever!
Good good good sevice great beer
What a fantastic gem! We found this place by accident and what a find it was. The beer was fantastic. We are big juicy ipa fans and the Riwaka, Shinny and Big Buck are what we tried and ALL of them were amazing! The food was absolutely delicious. We had the tuna salad and the fries and chef kisses! Lastly the service great job! We had our GSD with us and the server (Kevin) was so nice to us and our dog. He was very well versed in craft beer and was the perfect server. Gold stars all around!!!! We will definitely be back!
Great spot! Nice patio with a great interior. Beer was delicious and food tasty. Recommend!
Great choice of beer and excellent IPAs. Food was really nice and a great atmosphere in there on a Weds afternoon.
Enjoyable place for a casual beer or holding events.
Great spot for lunch. Staff was over the top friendly and food was amazing. Highly recommend the peach Cesar salad
Great place, great food! Our server Tyler was excellent; he provided very attentive service!
Great food, great beer , great atmosphere!
Had a good experience. Very tasty food, but a bit overpriced for casual dining. A drink and a chicken sandwich for just over $50 per person after tax and tip. Server was fairly attentive.
A magical night in the Parlour at Black Bellows! We had a truly memorable staff Christmas Party in the private back room with a curated menu, cocktails, and craft beer. Tori and Ali helped us put together a perfect spread for the evening including shrimp cocktail (the shrimp were huge!), The Journey Mediterranean platter, amazing salads, the best falafel EVER, tots with queso and more. The drinks kept flowing with attentive service and the ambience was outstanding. We all dressed up in sequins and fancy dresses and the lighting was so perfect to highlight the sparkle. Thanks for a fabulous evening we wont soon forget!
Nicely decorated. Food was good, not too salty. Beer was even better. Would recommend it for groups too, they have long tables for 8 people.
Best in Collingwood.
We stopped in for a beer after skiing and had a great time here. Staff were friendly and we got to know a bit about the area and what its like in the summer. We had a pretty good laugh with them about a few things (Danger Zone!) Got some great info on the artist that drew a huge and detailed mural! The beer was great too - some adventurous sours and some great traditional style stouts and ales.
Burgers are good. Beers great
Great beer and Really cool place!!! Im sure I will come back in my next trip to Collingwood
Beers were good, food was just... meh. Tatters were great but the Nashville burger was just deep fried fat. There was no sauce and no spicy and there was more flavor in the butter bread than in the burger. Was quite disappointed. We had driven up just for this restaurant. Would like to come give it a second shot but we do not recommend the Nashville burger if youre looking for a flavorful burger.
Beer I like and it a mixed crowd . Younger people make me feel younger. I like younger oeoole just hate hiphop it not music . A forgiven generation harmed by mark Zuckerberg a wealthy moron .
In my opinion they ve got the best craft beer in the area. The food is always great and the whole place is a vibe
Delicious food, excellent Cesar salad! Beer is outstanding. Love the decor, especially the bathrooms !
Great atmosphere. Great service. Food was FANTASTIC! Prices reasonabe. Beer very very tasty. We will be back!
Great drinks and service!
Excellent service from Emma, great atmosphere, will definitely be going back again soon!
Stopped by for a drink before the dinner. Very funky place with bunch of cool details. The service was very friendly. Craft beers were good and you can create you on flight to try them. If you are not into beers they do have a small selection of wine and basic shots.
Has the potential to be a great spot but the food menu is very basic and doesnt offer much choice. Beer is great but selection has shrunk a lot versus what it was a ~year ago.
If you are looking for a really good smashes burger and a beer, this is the place for you. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars was because I thought the menu did not offer a lot. Don t order a single burger, not much meat on a single. Need a double or triple ego be satisfied.
The best shortcake Ive ever had in my life.. super amazing food and staff a little high but the service and flavours more than made up for cost.. The desert is not what youd expect I wont ruin it but its a must have.. Brat sausage to die for... And the cider had me wanting more. . Dont take my word try for yourself
Just had a chance to try the new menu and it is delicious!! The dj and dance floor on Saturday night was a pleasant surprise in a very stark Collingwood night life.
Great patio. Food is a little underwhelming. Beer is good.
Our first time here. Four of us enjoyed an IPA and ale flight. The saison was delicious but I will forever enjoy IPAs so I went with the Big Buck. Morgan was amazing, answered all our questions, super helpful. Lee makes fantastic food!!! Josh had the salmon tartar. Ive made preserved lemons, and Ive made lemon jam but the lemon business on the salmon! Super yummy! Thanks Lee for letting me taste it by itself! I had the rip and dip plate - warmed olives were so simple and yet so pleasant and the herbs on top - I always love when your fingers smell like rosemary and its olfactory effects heighten the food that you eat! Fries were shared and were all that fries should be. And you can taste the thyme. Dumplings were a vehicle for the sauce and Im thinking they could use a bit more something. Ginger? Garlic? Gochujang? My brother-in-law had the burger and thoroughly enjoyed it. We ended with the trifle. Any chef when you ask: why mint oil? and they say taste it and youll understand is my kind of chef. Though he did also explain everyone just takes the mint leaf off and misses the ness of it. The mint oil definitely added the ness. The brown butter cake was a little overwhelmed by everything else but if you tasted it by itself it was delightful. Proper cream, not cloying. Overall thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon! Side note: The patio is lovely but if you deal with noise sensitivities you will need headphones/loops/other types of ear protection. There are dogs and they sometimes bark and motorcycles and loud cars are driving by rather close. Inside would be fine, but to enjoy the patio its worth bringing something.
Great fun experience, some great beers and fun food options. Lovely restored and renovated building that has become a Collingwood landmark.
Had the spicy chicken sandwich yesterday. Way too salty and burned. Couldn t finish it and I ALWAYS finish the food! Wife had beyond meat burger that s was pretty good. 4 because we love the beer and the vibe. I ve been a long time supporter of Black Bellows but this was our first chance to finally visit. Told server about the above didn t get offered any discount or replacement.
Well I have to say I was pleasantly suprised how great this place is. Truly a very nice place that has very welcoming charm to it. I honestly have never been a craft beer guy. I have never been someone to experiment with different beers. I now have to say I was blown away with their beer. Great taste and very satisfying. I will definitely be coming back often. My wife really enjoyed the Spyhouse cider and the atmosphere. Great job Tori and staff. I will definitely be recommending Black Bellows to all my friends.
I came here just to snack and ordered a beer and nachos. Their nachos are just like 5 round chips for $18. It s overpriced and the waitresses passed comments because I just left after ordering nachos and asking for the bill. If you ve got big pockets, this is the correct place!! But don t expect quantity, quality of food and service. May be someone just wants to snack and not have dinner!! A customer should never be judged.
Nice place to go and find some different craft beers. I bought a few for a friends birthday and he really enjoyed them. The staff are friendly and helpful in selecting some different drinks to try.
Great food. Loved the L9Y lager.
We always enjoy the food here. Grilled Salmon salad is often our go to but we also enjoy sharing a few appetizers. We are always surprised that it is not as busy as our other Collingwood restaurants. We think its because the music is always too raucous. If seniors are in majority Ill ask if they can turn it down. I d happily give 5 star if they found better playist!
Black Bellows had great Breakfast and Brat on a Bun sandwiches, lovely Belgian Witbier and Most Gripping Pale Ale beers, and friendly/attentive staff. Black Bellows is a must if you are visiting Collingwood.
Really great option for craft beer. Their selection looked great. Got the reef souse and Schlossbier. Both were delicious
Loved Happy Hour 3pm-6pm, Monday to Friday too! We dropped in on Tuesday and Elke looked after us. Super good Big Buck IPA on the patio and still in the sun at 5pm how good! Also stroller/baby friendly which we rest appreciated.
Absolutely great food great customer service love the atmosphere one of my favorite places to go in town
Fresh tasty beer, great pub grub and a dog friendly patio in the summer months! Good show Black Bellow
Only if we didnt feel that we were being rushed to leave and asked multiple times if we were done with our meals while we were still eating and patio was half empty, dining here would have been a much more pleasant experience. While the craft beer (El 9 Wye-Larger) was quite tasty, the Beyond Meat Smash Burger tasted a bit too salty and overpriced compared to other restaurants in my opinion. I would like to thank the restaurant for reaching out and I appreciate that customer satisfaction is important to them.
Great beer, friendly staff, great food
A young company, with a young beer that Im confident will develop more in years to come. Had a nice time tasting and a few laughs with the server.
Salmon tartare was not very good. It has a very odd tasting sauce on it and for the price, there was definitely not enough fish! The Most Gripping pale ale was good though.
Friendly staff and cold beers - we popped in during a walk through Collingwood and would recommend it as a good spot with a nice patio to watch the world go by!
Great beer and food, will return for sure
Ive showed up to this restaurant 4 times 3 times they were closed during the listed hours and after calling and hearing they are open. If you are showing up this feels like a gamble on if they will be open or not, the 4th time i got to actually go in, the staff was nice, i did go on a monday which is their guest kitchen day which means not the regular menu. It was a veganco day and i decided to go anyways as its rare i get time any other day to visit since i live out of town. The food was pretty good and personally the vegan chicken was not the best, ive had better vegan chicken for sure. I was also disappointed by the fact the drink menu had essentially no alcohol free options. I know its a brewery but most breweries ive visited have a house branded soda, or mocktails or really anything other than water and alc-free beer. I most likely wont be visiting when places just down the street offer better food, better drinks, and have a better vibe. Most likely will not visit ever again but i dont think it deserves too bad of a rating, im sure it has its charm for some people but just not for me. Very average experience.
The beer is excellent, but the food is over priced. $24 for a veggie burger and there wasnt anything special about it. The only thing more overreaching then the prices is the attitude of the staff. They were off putting, and gave us the sense like they didnt want to be there, or they didnt want us there.
Good beer, nice environs
I love to support local but wasnt overly impressed. Prices for food and drinks was crazy expensive compared to other local brew houses. Great patio but wont rush back.
Great atmosphere. The nachos were delicious and the staff were all kind and welcoming. Highly recommend the nitro stout!
The last time I spent that much on a beer I was at a leafs game .
Great side patio and food. Thank you Scott for being accommodating for our recent event
Great service and delicious food despite being short staffed and very busy on a beautiful Sunday morning
Love this place, good selection of craft beers and food. Please replace the gravel on the patio!
Very good beer selection (and other bevvies), friendly service, the best frites/fries that weve ever tasted, excellent meaty chicken wings -- this is a gem of a place (indoors or outdoors) just off the main street in Collingwood.
This was once a five star rating, but our dinner last night changed that. Average pub food, same great beer. Not the same service, though. A fairly aloof server who rarely visited, never offered any of us a second pint and hovered over me as I paid my bill. Literally watching me punch in my info to the point where I looked back to her to hint to her to give me a couple feet of privacy. She did not and watched me the whole time. Wed have been happier with an iPad menu to choose from and food runners. Will try it again, but maybe at the bar next time.
Excellent beer and staff. The location is fantastic with a wonderful outdoor patio!
I would like to thank the brewmaster for his excellent customer service. My son ,husband and I were very impressed with the service . They enjoyed the beers and definitely would buy again. Thanks brewmaster
Only came for drinks here with friends. Overall beer is decent, nothing too unique. The waitress was nice
Franks n butter wings were DELICIOUS. highly recommend!!!
I already feel sick after eating a burger and fries. I have been burping up the taste of dirty frying oil for the last few hours. I was in the mood for a burger. They only sell a double burger and it would have been nice of they offered a single. It was the most bland burger I have ever had. The only sauce was mayo. The bottom of the bun was soaking wet from the tomato and cut way too thin. The fries were horrible. It was almost as if they had scooped up the little bits that had fell to the bottom of the frier. The longest fry must have been only an inch long and ever single one was totally fried all the way through and filled with oil. I looked over at the other table and some other guy had totally normal looking fries. So, maybe I was just unlucky?
Visited recently and ordered the spicy chicken sandwich with a side salad. It was underwhelming, as the chicken was dry, and overall felt like it was missing something. I enjoyed the side salad, and it was a good size.
The best food presentation ! Its tasty as well! Associates were nice great patios. The place is clean! I suggest fresh flowers decorations on each table would be fantastic
A unique establishment with a very masculine vibe. The beverages are distinct from those other brands that get lost in the crowd. The black branding is bold and stands out from the usual. Flavour profiles are again bold and masculine with an earthy feel. I suggest adding a few pool tables and sports tv to complete the ambiance. If you re looking for something entirely different, go here.
Super friendly & great beer
Love Bellows the foods top notch and I adore the random art all over the place. Whether its a date or suds with the buds Id recommend them.
30 min. No service. Heard be with you in 1 min 4 times
Usually we have an excellent time here. Great atmosphere, drinks and food. Never had bad service except for this time. We went and a gentleman took us to our table. There were oy 4 other people in the restaurant. We waited 30 minutes before we got a drink. The waiter never came back to our table. The bartender and another waiter for our food and drink order. Food was excellent and fresh. They gad food trucks come in and use their kitchens to serve food. LOVE this idea!! When we paid we said it was weird how long it took to take our orders and in the middle of a basically empty restaurant we were told everyone was super busy. Not ok. Super sad because we always liked this place. Will take a while for us to back.
Good food and beer. They were open on Thanksgiving Day and short staffed and still provided great service. Great place in Collingwood
Great experience! Food and beer flights were great. The server was very attentive. Love that there are board games available to play.
Good craft beer and even better atmosphere. Food is also delicious - highly recommend for a date night or night out with the friends!
Beer is amazing, food typically bar grub. For such a cool bar, time to look at the menu. Doesnt match up. Tater tots, really?
Disappointing service! The server forgot about us almost as soon as we got seated. After finally getting our orders the server never checked up on us or asked if we wanted any refill on drinks. We ordered burgers and for basic condiments to the table we had to find and flag down a different server because our serve disappeared. Overall a disappointing experience.
Best brew pub in Collingwood!
Had a love time at black bellows! Our server Amy was amazing, great vibes. Such a warm atmosphere. Will defiantly come back again.
Did not really expect anything but Amy convinced me to have the Double Smash Burger with tater tots and the eating experience began! Just the right quality and quantity for a tasty, mmmmm burger and the tots were toasty, crunchy and soft in the middle. Perfect! Thank Amy
I have never been to a brewery and enjoyed the vast majority of beers. Then to follow it up with a smash burger with pork belly - unreal. Hats off to the super friendly staff and the obviously talented brewers.
Awesome. Naiomi our wait person was friendly and helpful. The beer and food great too.
Prices are a little high.
The beer is awesome and the staff is super knowledgeable about the product
Great food, great atmosphere and great beer. 10/10
Great food and beer. Strongly recommend!
Staff were super friendly, great atmosphere. The wings are not only gigantic but really tasty. Would recommend to anyone looking for a great time and a great beer.
Food quantity and taste is not up to the price listed. Provides less quantity food for higher price abd tastes average . Not worthful visit.
I had a fantastic meal, accompanied by an amazing saison beer. The meal was a special take on thanksgiving dinner, and I won t soon forget it. I look forward to returning someday to try more from what looks like a superb beer selection. My only complaint is when I finished the meal, I asked for one of their hoodies to be added to my bill. The price on the wall was clearly $60, but later I discovered on my bill I was charged $65. I hope this was an error, as this type of bill padding is not appreciated.
Good vibes. Gotta check it out again soon.
