Dropped by Slake Brewery for their Cherry Seltzer and other beers with my family of 6. Lots of parking!! We loved the open concept Interior design overlooking a beautiful viewpoint of PEC. They have a taco place called Rebel Taco which is the same thing as the brewery. They're both in the same location despite the Google maps location. Fun cozy vibe. Washrooms were clean. Staff was friendly for our off-season visit.

Beautiful grounds and views of the area. We sampled Peachy IPA and Burd Rice beer and they were both fun. Had some tacos and quesadillas too, they were fine, a little pricy, hence why the 4*.

Came here on the weekend. It’s a beautiful brewery, elevated on a hill with picturesque views all around. We came just in time for sunset, was the highlight of our weekend! Staff is super friendly and the location has lots of indoor and outdoor space and places to sit ! Really enjoyed the Peachy IPA, would definetly come back !

Took a trip over to Prince Edward County this weekend and had the pleasure of visiting Slake Brewing! What a lovely spot to grab a drink and watch the sun set. It offers a vast selection of drinks - beer (of course), wine, and non alcoholic - and a truly gorgeous view. There was plenty of picnic table seating, some lawn games (corn hole mostly), and great music, too. Another plus for me was the fabulous branding and design done by a Toronto artist. Overall a lovely spot which I would definitely go back to if I find myself in the area!

Wow what a hidden gem! Great location just a 6 minute drive from town and close to sandbanks provincial beach where we were camping. Great selection of beers, the cider was also very yummy. And inside the place is also a taco restaurant! I had 2 tacos they were so good. Highly recommend to check it out + very friendly service. Cheers!

Great spot to grab a drink and watch the sunset. You can also bring your furry friends as there is a large field with seating areas and plenty of space to walk them. The building has lots if tables with benches and large windows with a lovely view on farmland. Drinks wise, there are beers on tap and cans of cider, soda and seltzers. No snacks at the bar but there is a taco spot within the building. Unfortunately the tacos are hard shell but there is a vegan option (pumpkin). If this spot had more food options or snacks, it would be a 5 stars for sure!

Located in the postcardesque Prince Edward County, this brewery is a gem. The stunning view from the hilltop is breathtaking and the setting is perfect. The brewery itself is neat and welcoming, with a staff that truly makes you feel at home. Their warmth and friendliness were definitely a highlight of our visit. While the beers were enjoyable, they didn’t stand out as exceptional. However, the value for the price was impressive. A fantastic bonus was the amazing tacos from Rebel Tacos, who have a spot within the brewery. The gluten-free options were the main reason we visited, and they did not disappoint—they were delicious! We’ll definitely be coming back!

Visited a few breweries in the area over the past couple of days and this wasn t a favourite. Great view and staff. Beer and food need some work, especially the sour which tasted as though it had spoiled/turned. (We are aware of sour production from when we owned, and despite how it is made this flavour was not a result of the aging process).

Slake Brewing is a very special place in PEC. The taproom is built on the most beautiful location up on top of a high limestone hill, with a spectacular view overlooking the countryside and big sky. The taproom itself is a stunningly designed building with panoramic windows, and the patio area is expansive with a variety of seating arrangements to choose from that will suit different needs - younger and older, families and singles, humans and dogs, those seeking community or solitude, can all enjoy and feel comfortable in the space. Beyond the beauty of the place are the people who work at Slakes. My mom and I visited it for the first time during our first night in PEC this past Wednesday, and it happened to be the evening of their monthly pig roast. There was a large number of people and very busy, and yet we were treated with so much care, consideration, and attentiveness, as if we were the only ones when being served. Specifically, the gentleman at the taproom graciously introduced my mom to a few different beers, offered her samples, taking the time to explain everything. He even kindly offered us water without being asked. My mom loved her beer, even though we are not usually beer drinkers, she thought it was absolutely delicious. On top of this, the tacos and elote (Mexican roasted corn on the cob) was sooo yummy, and again, the people making and serving the food were similarly kind and attentive. Slake Brewing is a gem, and we were so glad it was the first place we visited in PEC, making our trip to the County so memorable and special. We hope to come back and introduce friends and family to this special place. Thank you, Slake Brewing, for giving us such a warm welcome!

One of my favourites in PEC. Not only is it beautiful with scenic views overlooking all of PEC, including the lake, but the beer is great. They have a refreshing assortment of beers that always hit the spot. The inhouse taco shop is also tasty. My only critique is that they should award those who can cycle up the hill with a complimentary pint!

Not far from Prince Edward County is this hillside brewery of delicious brews. I highly recommend the Long Sleeve Amber Ale, either in-store or as take-away. You wont be disappointed. They also have a fantastic Mosey Pilsner which I got to try at The Hayloft Dancehall. Outstanding! Within the walls youll also find Rebel Taco, so if you want a quick bite to eat, theyve got you covered. The views. The brews. Definitely add to your dos. You wont regret it.

2024 March: Location is nice. Cool spot. I paid $18.00 for two small tacos from one of those prepackaged taco boxes I could have bought myself at the grocery store. Like I literally watched him pull them out of the box. The regular chef might have had the night off. I am willing to give this place another try on another night out. Maybe kitchen staff will be different then. .

This was undoubtedly the highlight of our Prince Edward County breweries, with a mysterious, twisting and pitted gravel lane leading us up, up, up to an unpretentious parking lot - but dont let that fool you. This place is something to write home about. Some wonderful, crisp, clean beers with a wide variety to choose from and incredible ambience. Add to that staff who are clearly invested in making sure you have a good experience - including an owner bussing tables - means you feel like you are wanted here. I recommend a sunny evening to catch a special sunset view from their pagodas with a cold Tasty beer - well be back (and we took a couple of flats home with us...) Top notch.

Great location and views from the hill. Quiet, private , secluded . Beautiful place to spend a summer evening tasting great beers and having conversations. Only catch was that food wasn t available after 6 pm . The food truck had left by time I arrived.

I visited Slake Brewing while in PEC on business after seeing them listed on Google as a brewery to stop by. The view from the top of the hill where the brewery is located is spectacular and the large windows in the building mean you can enjoy it no matter what the weather. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating space where you can enjoy the view with a cold beer in hand. They also offer a small selection of foods to eat if you are hungry. I really enjoyed the beer and would definitely buy from Slake again. If you are in PEC and visiting breweries, I would absolutely suggest visiting here!

Beer is not good has a great view but the staff is very rude and would not recommend

December 22, 2022

Confused by the 4.8 star rating as this was the worst stop on our amazing tour in PEC. Food was late as staff admitted they were too busy gossiping in the kitchen, poor customer service despite us being the only group there, premises had a bad sewerage smell and lots of waste in view from the patio as well as staff members sucking popsicles opposed to thanking us for our payments

December 22, 2022

Unfortunately, had a horrible experience here. Staff were extremely rude. They did not give us any indication or explanation of the drinks that we were buying when we expected this to be an educational tour. We also assumed there would be flights to give us a chance to try the different drinks that they offered. We were excited about this, but were never offered this opportunity. Truly upset that we couldn t have had a better experience. They didn t even mention the viewing window into their downstairs brewery. Wished we had a better experience.

Absolutely beautiful setting, been there twice right before the sun starts the set, and its simply amazing with the view. Great selection of beers with choices including sours, lighter beers as well as hazier ones. Always nice to go for a visit and relax Update a year later: still fantastic with the friendliest calming staff around, and today sheep were in the upper field haha. Loving the new food popups they had all summer, and today had double breakfast during brunch popup

Beautiful views at Slake (picture says it all). Beer was tasty, atmosphere was very relaxed. The food was a tad on the expensive side considering its just a pre-made snack box. I wouldnt recommend going here for dinner. I had incorrect impressions on their food so I wont deduct a star for that. Bartender was chatty and personable. Will definitely go back next time!

Haven t experienced a sunset here yet, but hope to in the near future. Our first time here was during a big rain storm in the summer, so we didn t get to enjoy the outdoor picnic bench area as much as we d hoped. The branding is SO SO GOOD (I d hire whoever did your branding for my own company). Awesome beers. Gorgeous brewery. I will be back.

Just left the business a few min after 6pm. Did not make my purchase due to the rude service from the woman at the counter. My husband and I walked in to the store and saw that she was speaking to another customer so we went to look at the beer fridge off to the left of the bar. We selected a six pack of this beer called ember and she was at the counter without any customers we were the only people in the store. I asked if there was any beer that they sold that was Hoppy. She mentioned a beer but she said they only had four cans and didn t elaborate as to whether it could be purchased as singles. Two men walked in, she ignored us completely and immediately started talking to them. I wasn t able to really ask any more questions or ask her even to bring out the beers that she had mentioned. It s not easy to get to this business it s a winding drive on a dirt road and I was recommended to visit this business by another brewery in the area. I have to say I m pretty surprised how quickly she disregarded myself and my spouse, even if she knew the customers that just arrived she completely stop speaking to us and was attending them. I m a woman of color and I ve experienced this before in this region, I have to say this left a bad taste in my mouth and I will not be recommending any of my POC friends to visit this brewery. I m not a tourist I live in the area.

I ve had (and loved) Slake s beer a number of times via some craft beer bars in Hamilton, and my first visit to their brewery in PEC kicked things up multiple notches. Their massive facility and beergarden are located on a farm at the end of a winding road; a gorgeous spot to hang out for a few hours. Better still, the beer is exceptional, with some offerings holding their own as some of Ontario s stronger examples of their respective styles. Branding is top-notch, the staff are warm and friendly, and I left with numerous take-home cans in hand and zero complaints. Go go go.

I have been seeking out Slakes offerings in Toronto ever since I stumbled upon a 3.5% ABV beer called Yellow Flowers that had a ton of complexity and body despite its low-alcohol content - a huge draw for me. After poring over the pop-up retail shops in Toronto and trying everything I could, I decided to visit the brewery and planned a trip to Prince Edward County around it. Everything was perfect about the visit: its an interesting, modern building atop a hill in a beautiful, relaxing, pastoral landscape with sunsets that live up to and exceed the hype of the reviews; the staff were kind and helpful, even asking a brewer to come chat with me to better answer a question; the beer was all top-notch and a treat to taste fresh, including an option that was only available at the brewery; and the food options, while not the focus of the business, were delicious. We visited twice while on the trip, which was easy because it is very close to Sandbanks - perfect way to cap off a day of hiking or beach hangs. I also realized it is possible to have beer shipped directly from the brewery to Toronto, and is more cost-effective than going to retail shops here. I recently tried this out for the first time and, when a SNAFU arose that was completely my own error, Eric from the brewery was extremely helpful in resolving it. I was very moved by the lengths he went in providing customer service. Will definitely be ordering again, and also planning another visit!
