130 Elm St, Greater Sudbury, ON P3C 1T6, Canada
knowhere public house is a pub located downtown Sudbury focusing on local food, farmers, growers + makers. a huge selection of craft beers available, along with snack plates + feature dishes.
What a great find!!! The food is very "homey".......just like how Grandma used to make it. Really unique food choices and exotic craft beer selection. Couldn't recommend enough. I will be back!!
Stopped in by accident last week in May cold and raining saw soup on menu and it was vegan it said and I got a big steaming bowl of the most delicious soup ever had. Coffee good too. Thought soup tasted of ginger and tho I don't like ginger (I thought) but as I said the best.
Was recommended this place and so happy we came. Amazing vibe, amazing service & amazing food. Would definitely come back & recommend it to anyone in town. Order the grilled cheese
As long as you're not in a rush, this is a great brunch spot. I think the laid back vibe is part of their charm. I got my sandwich on sourdough to go and it was really good.
Nice little taproom / bar with a good selections of cans to choose from. Im.assuming you have to oay for a corkage when you buy a can which does add to the cost off you drink. But still a nice cosy atmosphere to sit in and a have a nice drink 🍺
We were in Sudbury for a couple days and stopped by for dinner. We had a snack plate and a real good salad. Both were excellent, fresh and generous. A great change from fries or wings or burgers. We had a sangria and cranberry honey mead to go along with. This place is really unique and doing everything right. Thank you.
I traveled from Maine to come back here & completely worth the trip. The chai tea late slays. All ingredients are locally sourced and masterfully prepared . Best food, incredible drinks menu, & amazing staff.
Fantastic experience. Everyone was nice, knowledgeable and courteous. The beer recommendations were on point, the food (vegan plate, meat pies, pub mix and pretzel) were all amazing. We're already planning on going back.
Great choices of new and interesting beers.
I had never been here before but when I heard Hatt & Molli were playing here I tried it out. When they did their angelic rendition of Monster Mash I stayed and ordered $1000 worth of food and you should book them daily
a hidden gem.
Had a lot of hope for this place and the food was great but the service terrible every single time I went- for this reason I wont be returning. The employees were rude and not very personable or accommodating.
Just had coffee. It was great.
Good selection of Craft Beer available. Friendly staff. Casual atmosphere. Good for a quick cold beer stop on a hot day
Came here last night with my boyfriend and we really enjoyed it! The owner was super nice and it was a nice atmosphere. We didn t have any food but the drinks were lovely!
Not just a bar. Z A meeting place, about a half hour walk from Anywhere with hot and cold, soft and hard drinks, snacks and a very welcoming atmosphere found nowhere but Knowhere. Mothers Day brunch event coming. May be sold out by the time you get wind if it.
One of the best restaurants in Sudbury for sure. Very high quality ingredients, food is delicious. Wasn t extremely quick so give yourself some time to eat there, but absolutely worth the wait. Snack plate was unique and absolutely delicious!! Drinks too are very good. Will be back!
Loved the food. Loved the decor and loved the owner.
I dont like because they dont serve ciorba de burta and parjoale. Sercive was good. Bathroom atmosphere 10/10. Solid 3 stars.
Great laid back vibe and focus on using local ingredients.
Always amazing staff and venue
One of my absolute favorite places downtown Sudbury. 5 stars across the board for service, food, drinks and atmosphere
Knowhere is the place to be. The vibe is immaculate, the staff our outstanding and the food & drink are 10/10.
Was dying to try this little coffee spot out and finally made it in today....the dude that served us was very accommodating to my 9year old daughter. The atmosphere and the smiles were worth the visit...pricing was fair and service was top notch....very happy with pur visit and cant wait to try out their breakfast on my next trip.
This place was so cute! This place was recommended from a local resident of Sudbury, and Im glad that I went. I sat at the bar, and tried a local craft beer. I had the pretzels on the menu and engaged in some very good conversation with some strangers. Even pet a couple dogs (a couple regulars came in with their puppies) I heard that they have a great patio in the summer. If I ever return to Sudbury Ill be sure to check it out.
I got to experience one of the drag brunches hosted by Knowhere Public House and it did not disappoint! The brunch they served was absolutely amazing! The drinks were delicious and I loved them so much my girlfriend and I stayed for over 5 hours LOL
I love the actual location of Knowhere Public House - in the historic former location of Cafe Obscura & Canadas oldest Chrysler dealership, Gardener Motors. It still features all of the rich original wood paneling and trim beautifully kept. It is also conveniently located next to another of our favourite Sudbury businesses, Bay Used Books (always one of our first stops). We sampled their mushroom toast and soft pretzel with herbed cream cheese, along with a latte and London Fog. Our server was perhaps the new owner or manager (he had that vibe) and he was very warm & welcoming. We enjoyed our little brunch and will definitely return.
Definitely looking for a date night place! Love it here!
Awesome spot. So comfortable and friendly!
Nice atmospheric location with friendly staff. One of my only gripe is that the menu prices havent been fully updated, so the wall menu had different prices than the handheld ones, which led to some confusion on my final bill.
Warm atmosphere, friendly attentive staff, delicious homemade foods. Great beer selection, great Caesar!
Great atmosphere.
Went here twice on my little visit to Sudbury. Very nice, cozy place. Great staff. great food. great coffee. Will definitely visit again if Im ever back in the area!
Great chill athmosphere.
Great fresh and local foods and a fantastic selection of rotating beers!
Great beer, great food, great atmosphere, great people. What more could you want?
Very welcoming and friendly space. Great selection of food and beverages for such a small place!
The best breakfast and Caesar I ve had in distant memory.
1stt time here back in December 2022 and needed to come back on this trip. Best Caeser Ive ever had. Amazing food, as well. Wonderful staff.
Great food and amazing, friendly service!
This is my favorite place in Ontario. Amazing service: fresh, local ingredients and great prices. The toast and Oatmilk Chai Latte are heaven.
Beer is great and super food certainly if your looking to eat healthy.
Amazing service! Delicious food!!
Tonight, they had a local entertainment called Tim Tam Slam, who we sat all evening enjoying. While sitting on their beautiful patio, huge assortment of drinks to choose from hot/cold, alcoholic or not, along with some great menu options. Great atmosphere and great service. Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp
Best place downtown for beer selection and the freshest foods.
The new standard and benchmark for food, drink, culture, music and community in downtown Sudbury.
The first time I visited Knowhere it was Jordans second day, he juggled a mad table of us kind but raucous birthday celebrants. This time it was just me and my boy Bennet! And there he was, three months later, a master at his game! What a guy! Also a nice feast and fine drinks!
Amazing small plate foods, great local craft on tap. Atmosphere is fantastic with a cozy feel and a great patio. Good place for an evening drink and bite or afternoon latte and snack.
Server was a great guy. Atmosphere was great as well...... but..... $14 for a sour beer? $13 for a lager? Suuuper expensive. Wow. Not cool. Be better.
Had the mushroom toast with pumpkin soup combo. It was divine. The food and drinks are so so good here! Would recommend!
Awesome cocktails, the really good salad is REALLY GOOD, delicious sourdough grilled cheese and krumplings!
If youre looking for a cozy, trendy spot for a beer, delicious brunch or cocktail, then Knowhere Public house is the place to go! Their staff are friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend attending their Drag Brunch!
The seltzers! Love how they focus on local farm to table (more vegan options please, though there are always vegan snack options) can t recommend this place enough, Plus there s parking so 10/10!!
Fantastic atmosphere, amazing staff, great food. My favorite place in Sudbury to work, grab a coffee, or bring a date.
Great, friendly service, quick food, and lots of craft beers. Wish I had more time to indulge. Will definitely come back when Im in the area again.
Didnt just move here. Best place in town, the tomato chips are fire.
Great beer, fantastic homemade food. The mustard dip with the pretzels is incredible. I havent tried the tomato chips but they look incredible. As a Sudbury local this place is here to last
Best drinks, best snacks, best space
Knowhere is a true Sudbury gem. Great craft beer selection, great local food, and great people. Cant recommend this place enough
Excellent place. Service was great and the beer selection is unreal, and the food was great. The location is very nice and limited seating made for a great experience. Highly recommended! 10/10
Amazing food and great atmosphere! It s a go to drink and snack stop when coming to Sudbury for the day.
Had an awesome first experience here was like central perks meets cheers atmosphere. Food was excellent I highly recommend the snack tray, the drinks are also excellent great place for a beer Connoisseur staff was friendly and polite as well.
Saw a review from a guy upset he couldnt get a burger. I would like to take the opportunity to say I have genuinely and truly never seen a place take as much pride in what they make than I have seen here. To take the time, when placing the meal on our table, to tell me where your ingredients are from, how they work well with the meal, and whats included, is an experience I can say Ive seldom had, and I watched these prideful yet brief explanations happen at every table that ordered food. To be waited on by a part owner with such pride in their business, and such knowledge about what they are serving, from their craft beers to their coffees, was an experience in itself. I truly felt that this was a place where anyone, from any walk of life, could feel liked and welcomed, and we noticed that was the case right from our first step in. No two people were the same. It was as a public house should be; anyone can be there, and anyone can feel they belong. The atmosphere, the selection, the food, and the pride, are the things that make this place deserve a 6th star.
Outstanding. The service is excellent. The ambiance is great - very quiet and relaxing. Great big windows for people watching, if thats your thing. They serve a great many fantastic local products, including craft beer, kombucha, and other stuff. Coffee is fantastic, and is prepared competently. Everything Ive tried was wonderful. Easy walk from many nearby neighbourhoods, making this a welcome alternative to chain coffee places. Highly recommended coffee place - one of the best in town.
Great service
Lets get really real about the tomato chips. It sounds strange and a tad disturbing, I know. But, it is a must try. I have spent the last 38 years of my life, unable to love or form any emotional connection to any person, place, or thing. These chips have taught me not only how to love but live a positive and fulfilling life. The sun shines a little brighter, the birds sing for me, I love, unconditionally now. Everyday since Ive tried these chips has been bright and cheerful. Ive welcomed each of these days with overwhelming optimism and an open heart. If you need a pick-me-up or are of a negative disposition; kindly shut-up and shove a heaping handful of tomato chips into your mouth hole and feel happy.
Excellent, food, atmosphere and service!
Excellent sandwich, salad and coffee. To discover in the city center
Best lattes in Sudbury. Havent tried the food but menu looks amazing! Great vibe, lovely interior. Very friendly and great service :)
Good atmosphere for a night with friends.
Great food, comfortable environment, fabulous staff. I use their space for my bookclub, and they are so accommodating.
Great atmosphere, thorough selection of beers, good eats and knowledgable staff. Several options for vegetarians and vegans as well. This is the type of place where management would put something together specifically for you if needed. Great service!
Went here for a meal with my husband, and had a great experience. The food was delicious (we had the snack plate, a salad and the krumplings). We were so impressed with the quality and the freshness of everything. The pickles and pickled fiddleheads were ridiculously good. I had the lilac lemonade, which is pretty much the drink of my dreams. The kombucha is also very tasty.The service was excellent and the atmosphere was just right. We cant wait to go back and try other dishes! Thank you for a perfect date night meal.
Great snacks, lovely atmosphere, excellent range of non-alcoholic beers and beverages!
Such a great experience. Quality beer, great food choices , and even better service. There will def. Be a repeat visit.
My new home away from home. Fantastic service and the selection of craft beer available is so far the best Ive found in Northern Ontario. Also definitely recommend the spicy dog.
Love this place, the owner I could chat with for hours, good beverages and great food
Just ate here for the first time after eyeing it for a while and so glad I did! Had the Breakfast Sando and a salted honey latte and it was fantastic. Totally vibing under their covered patio complete with eclectic furniture (even recliners outside - omgosh) and live music, in a great area for people-watching too. And they have their own parking area in the back. I am loving this spot. Perfect for brunch/coffee/a late morning outing after visiting Bay Used Books next door, or for a lovely evening with local craft beers. I love that you know where these products come from. I love the reused furniture and dishes. I love the vibe. And I absolutely love the clever, fun name. Ill stop now and hopefully this wont make the place too busy for the next time I want to visit here! Hah
This is a hidden perfect gem in Sudbury. It has delicious snacks and the drink and beer list is wonderfully diverse. The vibe is friendly and laid back with top notch service. The decor inside is beautiful too! This is one of my favourite lunch spots. It s perfect for a business meeting or first date! OH and they have games!
Great spot downtown! Friendly staff, excellent food, great vibes & atmosphere.
My favorite quaint pub for good laughs and chats. Owners are stellar and personable. Vintage atmosphere. Coffee or beer, dumpling or spicy dog, you with be pleased with it all.
A very nice place Great atmosphere and tasty food
Lovely place! Great food, staff and ambiance! Worth a visit!
Food is awesome and Service was great
Bartender turned away a group of 12 telling us we could only sit outside when there was plenty of space available inside. Our group was comprised of respectful group of professionals in our mid thirties. This establishment lost an easy $600 of revenue this evening.
Great place with really nice folks. Fantastic selection of beer and excellent snacks. I haven t made my way entirely through either menu, but I m sure that with time I will, and I m equally sure that I ll enjoy myself.
Lady serving was nice and friendly and helpful very knowledgeable about the beer she was serving and recommended the best snacks there. And I was able to bring home 6 beer! Very great atmosphere with house plants, calming environment, and our dogs were welcome on patio!
Wonderful, warm, and welcoming spot. Nice Ontario beer list and great eats. We had the smoked fish plate and it was fantastic!
First time and was impressed with the place, it was clean and the waitress was very friendly.
Great food! Great atmosphere! Friendly, knowledgable staff! Fantastic craft beer selection!
Excellent beer selection, even better service. A hidden gem in a city that has precious few decent spots
Love the atmosphere and the staff. The drinks are refreshing and inventive.
Great place for a micro beer. Good food too!
Went there for just drinks one night after moving and it was the summer and the waitress Suggested a great beer and I have fond memories ever since Everybody was super friendly and it was laid back relaxed very cosmopolitan I was surprised but so pleased
Drinks and food are amazing! Owners are so sweet. Tons of events and live music all the time!
wonderful little place. all local food and drinks. had the smoked fish snack which was fantastic! all the right flavours, took home a cinnamon cookie and definitely worth the price. 10/10 would recommend.
Excellent special dinner last night. Everything was so delicious and beautifully presented. Excellent service in a warm cozy space. Well done Bill and Kaitlin!
A fantastic local joint! Works with other vendors in town to give you a full Sudbury experience all in once spot!
Great place to hang out, have some snacks, and enjoy some drinks. Relaxing atmosphere. Staff is friendly and welcoming. Patio is perfect for any type of weather as it s completely covered. All local food and drinks. Everything is fresh. Sudbury had been needing this for a while! 5 stars.
Great chill option for downtown cocktails, craft beer and some nosh. Staff are fun and chill. Nice addition to the downtown scene. Patio is covered for rainy days.
Friendly ambiance. Great beers
Great lagers, curry werst special, and snack plate yum! Staff are fantastic, Bill is a great Publican.
Beautiful patio, the owner and staff are lovely
If I lived in Sudbury, Knowhere cafe would be my everyday spot for sure. Great food, great atmosphere, great ownership, great staff, great music. This place and these people dont try, they do. Cant wait for another visit!
Love the atmosphere, staff is beyond friendly and all the food and drink items are made with as much local ingredients as possible. Definitely a new favourite!
Fantastic service and atmosphere! Love it here
I had a drink there, raspberry sour something and it was delicious. It comes in a beautiful can. Their coffee is great, they have really yummy desserts, the ambiance is just right AND they give me kitchen scraps for my chickens! Whats not to love!
Food menu is short, but impeccably executed. Ingredients are locally sourced and full of amazing flavour, and portion quantity is generous. Service was amazing and such a delight. Highly recommend!
This place is amazing! We had the snack plate and smoked trout. It is to die for and the atmosphere is awesome. Prices are good and they source locally great place!
Whilst visiting the old home town we found this pleasant surprise on a Sunday evening (Aug 29) in the old Gardner Motors building...that should date me!
Bill s knowledge of craft beer and his personable approach ensures his customers have a wonderful experience. Homemade baked goods and locally sourced ingredients make for a culinary delight. Highly recommend stopping by. You won t be disappointed.
Nice and cosy place with various seasonal food options! We had the vegan plate which combined salty and sweet in a perfect way! I m looking forward to come back! :)
friendly and clean
Amazing staff. Great food, made in house or farm to table. Neat drinks like flavoured mead. Just a really nice place to relax.
Awesome place and staff.
The best Caesar in town.
Was at a book signing. Everyone was very professional and the tea was amazing.
Super friendly staff, great coffee and beer selection and awesome food from local sources (including made in house pickles!) Sat on the patio with our dog and the server gave him water and treats perfect addition to Sudbury!
Knowhere Public House has an incredible vibe, fantastic service, and a great selection of beers from Sudbury, as well as other places in Ontario. Bring a book, grab a friend, its a good place to chill and enjoy the day.
Outstanding food, superb service, and relaxing atmosphere! Gourmet quality breakfast. Thanks Bill!
