The 3 Brewers

3 Brewers is the new hot spot in Richmond Hill/​Markham for me and the Crew. This place used to be the Melting Pot (Really thought they would make it) and other failed businesses before that. I think 3 Brewers is here to stay for the long haul because it is now the place to be in the east beaver creek area, and I’d bet a pitcher on that. When the place first opened I was impressed about the selection of food and the service. Unfortunately the more and more I came (others would say the same), the more I saw that the business was slacking. The food was not as good as before, and the service definitely took plunge. It changed my 5 star rating to a 4 star. I was way more impressed with 3 Brewers in Mississauga when I checked it out. Maybe 3 Brewers Richmond Hill will pick up its slack, because we wouldn’t wanna see another failed business in that exact building again. If so, we might have to say its a cursed building for business owners. I like that they try to do a new feature beer that is brewed in house. Yeah, that’s right they brew their beer in house. How cool is that? Overall I think that 3 Brewers is a pretty stable business and a great place to grab some beers and hang out. As long as a new pub/​bar doesn’t take over that area. JimStar Out!

Good staff, great place to watch a game. Food is great especially their flatbreads. Great portion!

I enjoy this place. They card, but it’s okay because it’s a bar. They’re supposed to. Any students trying to get alcohol, don’t bother. I’ve tried numerous times.
Food is solid. One of my friends food came out cold but the waitstaff are very nice and reimbursed his entire meal. The problem is service slows down as more people come in, which is usual. I had the pulled pork poutine. Fries were crisp and gravy wasn’t too heavy. I’ve had better though. In terms of selection, their beers are pretty good. (I take sips of my friend’s)
Average place.

It was our friend’s turn to pick a place for dinner. 3 Brewers was the choice. My friend (s) are easy to choose a microbrewery. I am right there with them. So we started with a fleet of six different beers. It was fun to define and taste each brew in order, comparing the bitterness, how it would taste with certain foods etc. I ordered the Roast Beef a Jus. Not a great cut of meat and it molded into the mozzarella. Fries were cold. My wife had mussels, also came cold. My friends enjoyed the ribs but the fish and chips were not quite up to par. The place was quiet, so not due to be overly busy, (snow storm happening…) I would go back for a pint or two, but as this place is located in a mass of restaurants, I hope they pick up a chef, even if they have to drop one of the three brewers. Sorry, better luck next time.

I’ve been here about 5 – 6 times and I’m never disappointed. This place has their own microbrewery which is very fascinating. They make their own beer. The prices of the beers and cocktails are inexpensive yet taste amazing. There’s a huge variety of flat breads. A few of my favorite things to order is the calamari, popcorn shrimp, flatbread chips, poutine with their beer battered fries, and the steak and mushroom flatbread. I honestly love this place.
This one time when it got really busy I had to wave/​stare down a manager to order dessert. When the manager came back she told me it was on the house because no customer should ever have to wave a waitress down in order to be helped. It was sweet and unexpected. I just wish the seats were a tad bit more comfy but it’s a bar … So I’ll definitely be coming back again!

Looks like I forgot to write my review for 3 Brewers (Richmond Hill). First of all, I would like to say I was very reluctant to come here because I’ve been to the downtown location and had a terrible experience, however based on the convenience location and Unilocal reviews I decided to give it a shot.
As soon as we walked in we were greeted and seated immediately. The waitress talked to us about their beers and let us sample some, she was really friendly.
The food is pretty good here, we’re big fans of the flat bread, its essentially a super thin crust pizza. The Lilloise is our go-​to. The beers are pretty good, they have a few you can choose from which range from white to dark brews. Prices are fair. I’ve been back once again and received similar service and food quality so I’m please to say I’m a fan of this one.

3 brewers? More like 3 brothers! Don’t know where I was going with that haha. This place is amazing!!! The food here is bomb and the drinks are all made within, which makes it a really cool. I’ve ordered all the burgers here and probably my favorite is the their 3 brasseurs burger! I would love to try their other food but I really love the burgers here. The service here is always good or usually* good. I’ve had one case where the server was kind of slow and didn’t really check on us till the end. Overall though this place is still really bomb!
The atmosphere is very chill and décor is nice. They have lots of tvs and show sports or ufc depending on the night. This place can get a bit packed from time to time. The parking lot is complete garbage… if it’s a Friday night good luck. There are so many restaurants in the area that finding a spot is like impossible.
Definitely will be back here!

BF and I really wanted to taste the beer at 3 Brewers, so we ordered the Special et Cetera ($ 9.75). It is a rail of 6 beers in smaller glasses. It is perfect for someone who 1) wants to try out a variety of beers in one seating without drinking too much, or 2) can’t make up his/​her mind. We enjoyed all the ligher beers. We found the dark beer too bitter. If you like bitter beer, you would like the brown.
We ordered a Pulled Pork Nacho ($ 17.50) and a Reuben Sandwich ($ 14) to share. Both tasted rich and bold. The nachos were nicely crunchy yet not oily. There was a lot of pulled pork. It was flavoured with a rich, smoky, and sweet BBQ sauce. I added hot sauce myself. The salsa could be of better quality, such as a mix of minced tomatoes, onion and cilantro, instead of from a grocery store jar. Nevertheless, the nachos were a marvellous shareable.
The Reuben sandwich was a indulgence. The corn beef was fatty and juicy and flavourful. There was a LOT of cheese. The surprise was the house salad that, instead of a typical lettuce salad, was a fresh spring mix salad in honey mustard dressing. Well done and classy. The sandwich was of a one-​person portion only, so it was too small for sharing.
The only thing that took away 1 star was the slow services. We visited on a Monday evening. The place was obviously not staffed for the customer volume. It wasn’t easy for us to find a waitress for additional food and drink. The waitress apologized every time for making us wait. It wasn’t her fault 100%, so maybe the management could look into the staffing requirement of Monday evenings.

It is awesome to have a place so close to home! Great food and local beer!
Staff: They were great and welcoming. When we first came they gave us a sample of one of their beers. Service and food was quick and they cleared our plates in a timely fashion. Top scores!
Ambience: There are plenty of space and music playing the the background. Plenty of large screens airing sports. Seats and tables were very spacious and comfortable. Loved the layout and lots of sunlight!
Food: Very delicious! Had the Chicken Quesadillas and their BBQ Chicken Flamm. It was so filling! The both were much bigger than I anticipated. Should’ve just ordered one haha. The cheese was oozing from the quesadillas! Will love to go back again.
This is that bar that I was craving for the area and I’m glad to have finally found one!

I was shocked! Shocked on so many levels — it’s true! My one and only prior experience with this growing Canadian chain was subpar at best. The beer was watery, the food — meh, and the service lacking. All that changed the other day when I paid the newest location of 3 Brewers (in Richmond Hill) a visit.
This location took over for what used to be the Melting Pot (and several failures before it). The expanded and opened up the existing space and put a custom 3 Brewers spin on it matching the popular décor notes of today (reclaimed wood, no frills, iron, and Edison bulbs, etc).
I was greeted by 3 hostesses as I entered, all smiles and very sweet and then decided to sit at the bar as it was lunch on a weekday and the place was pretty empty. A server quickly came by and welcomed me, explained the restaurants concept and asked me what I’d like.
Having seen the reviews I knew I wanted to try this customer Richmond Hill specific review (Farmhouse) but played dumb and ask for her recommendations. She did one better and brought me an array of samples to try so I could see what I liked best. The Farmhouse ended up winning out and for good reason — it was incredible, such an easy drinking flavourful beer! I highly recommend it! As soon as I ordered my beer the bartender asked me if I would like to add fresh baked pretzels for $ 2? Sure I would, and I’m glad I did — they were massive! These soft, salty, chewy pretzels came in a pair and came equipped with two very distinct mustards. the first was a honey mustard while the other (and my favourite) was an extremely potent dijon mustard! Amazing, it even made my eyes water!
For my main, I wasn’t super hungry but wasn’t quite feeling a salad so I decided to go for one of their famous flammes! The name of the specific flamme I had escapes me now but I really loved the thin crust, the no hold bar toppings and how huge it was — definitely didn’t hold back when attacking this dish.
Overall a great experience and I’m looking forward to coming back here soon!
Eatcrest Out!

Went back with the family for dinner this time. Wow, it was quite a different experience.
The food was very good this time, and the atmosphere was amazing for hanging with the family. Was different from lunch because there were more people and it didn’t feel as dead. Also tried the pretzel and it was amazing. Will have to go back again just for that.
I also didn’t pay this time around so don’t know the price of our bill
Pros.
Friendly service
Free beer tasting
Great Food
Felt like a bar this time.
The Pretzel was awesome.

Nothing I can think about right now.

I honestly HATE coming to the restaurants at East Beaver Creek, simply because the parking lot is a complete mess and always jam packed. Makes no sense why they wouldn’t make underground (or multilevel) parking here to relieve the parking situation here. Nevertheless, I came here last week for dinner and drinks. We really only stumbled in here because we were supposed to go to Honest Lawyer but it closed down without us knowing lol.
Well, I’m glad. Because the food and ambience in here is far better than what we would have gotten at Honest Lawyer.
This place brews its own beer so naturally, it is a good price. I got a litre of amber for $ 9.25. Pitchers were going for $ 14!
The beer itself was pretty good, they have a good description of what each beer is like and even have a bitterness scale and show you how much alcohol content are in each. And each menu item suggests which beer pairs well with it. Pretty neat, and not to mention the menu was printed like it was newspaper! So creative.
I ordered the steak & frites for about $ 19. The steak was a little small but for $ 19, it was good. The frites were garlic frites and they were so good! I was still slightly hungry after this, but it’s good for next time so I can order an appetizer. Maybe mussels mmm.
My SO got some kind of burger that had pulled pork on it and it was pretty delicious too! His side of poutine was a bit tiny. So portion sizes here aren’t the best, but what they lack in quantity, they strive in flavour.
Another bonus is there were a lot of TV screens, so it was great to watch the Jays game there. There is a huge screen made up of 9 smaller screens too behind the bar which was conveniently located right in the middle.
I’d definitely come back to watch a game and have from brews. Maybe I’ll come earlier to secure a parking spot lol.

My first visit and first impression is good ambiance, good music, beautiful patio at night, friendly bartenders and waitresses. Most importantly, good drinks, amazing food and especially good desserts.
Everything at this new location is beyond my expectation. I will come back for sure.

I’m not really a beer drinker so this review based only on the food.
Got a very nice seat on the patio.
They give you a free sample shot of beer to try out.
Manhattan flatbread $ 16 was okay only. It was shaped like a thin crust pizza. I found the crust to be way too soft. Only the very edge of the flatbread had some crisp to it. The toppings consisted of caramelized onions, cheese and chunks of steak. Overall, found it to be pretty average.
French dip for $ 15 was another just okay dish for me. The fries were very plain. The meat in the beef dip was soft but it was a mushy soft. Not a tender type of soft at all. The bread was really good and soaked up the aju very nicely. Overall, pretty average once again.
Also tried a sangria beer cocktail at $ 4.25. Tasted weird to me and didn’t really like it.
Food is 3 stars for me but I’m sure they have other dishes which are better.
Service was excellent.

Free beer samples, awesome wait staff and good food !
I’m not a fan of beer so having the option of trying it before deciding on one was a big bonus. We got to try 7 different types of beer and the sample portions were fairly decent. Our waiter was very charming and helpful. Big smile the entire night and he gave us some great recommendations. Tried the «flamm», it reminded me of a thin crust pizza with no marinara sauce. The pulled pork sandwich was full of BBQ flavour and was really tender.
Overall, will definitely go again to try some of the other menu items.
Note: apparently they have a lot of off menu items so try asking your server for recommendations or good deals (there was a $ 15 app platter and for an extra $ 5 you get a pitcher of beer !!)

Awesome place for a Markham/​Richmond hill bar! If you’re an avid bar hopper and enthusiast like myself, you know that there are barely any good bars and brew houses in the area but 3 Brewers has done it!
Really big place that took over the melting pot! FINALLY RIGHT! That melting pot has been waiting to melt since 5ever ago. The restaurant is probably one of the biggest in the east beaver creek area, with a looooong bar and tables all around. And a patio! The tall tables are a bit weird though, comfy but uncomfy at the same time– for such tall tables, you’d think they’d screw it down to the floor so people don’t come tumbling down. especially after they’ve had a few pints.
This gastropub looks like a gem you’d find uptown. The service is really good and they are super helpful! The drinks are awesome! Unique and delicious beer cocktails, YUM…
The menu is pretty big and unique– never seen a place in GTA with nocoise salad («your mother is so stupid, she goes to Barneys rooftop deck and orders a nocoise salad and calls it a nocoy salad» –white chicks reference, anyone?) I got the pulled pork sandwich and OUUUU, deliciouso! Super tended and flavourful pork in a baguette… mmmm, ¹⁰⁄₁₀ would get again. The portions are not really big for the price but meh, it’s bar food price.
Overall, I would come back again! Nice atmosphere and food. However, I’m not too fond of the area– People that look like they’ve never driven a day in their lives before taking over the parking lot. I hate going to bars in the same city I live in due to fear of running into people I know, but I guess I’ll risk it for this cool place!

Finally a restaurant in the middle of this otherwise cursed section of East Beaver Creek, which is destined to stay.
I was immediately drawn by the visible brewery through the windows of the restaurant. Expectations ran high and 3 Brewers did not disappoint.
Although I had not heard of the chain before, after I was shown the list of locations and informed they had dozens in France, that then moved through Quebec to GTA, I was assured the quality would be sound.
The menu brought a smile to my face when I saw such bistro dishes as Cassoulet. I started with the onion soup which was fresh and vibrant, without the excessive use of salt. Followed by the Niçoise salad with goat cheese added. Delicate, fresh and well seasoned.
I’ll be back to address the many other intriguing menu items.

Woooh! Definitely a cool spot! I absolutely love microbreweries, and this one is definitely in a good location! Located at East Beaver Creek, this restaurant is a keeper as it brings a unique flavour to the already diverse array of options.
I didn’t even know they were opened until I drove by it. Glad that I came by though! A nice choice of house beers and familiar foods. I wasn’t too sure which beer I wanted for the evening, so the server eagerly gave me a couple samples to try before making my decision! Always a great way to start the night! I ended up with their house Blonde, which was a good choice.
For food, my friend and I got the Mac & Cheese Grilled Cheese and Sausage and Chicken (Shrimp) Pasta. The grilled cheese looked amazing, and my friend really enjoyed it. Cooler yet, they gave a spicy sauce to go with the fries! For the pasta, I can’t eat crustaceans, so they subbed the chicken for the shrimp. Definitely a nice choice. A bright, red colour to the pasta was a bit if a surprise, but it was delicious, with a hint of spice to it.
A great meal accompanied by great service always makes my night. The server came back to check on us without being bothersome, and provided excellent service overall. The overall ambiance felt more bar than restaurant though. The music was a little too loud, and it became harder to have a conversation with someone at the same table.
Definitely gonna make an effort to come back, as there were some amazing specialties on their menu that I would definitely wanna try. Not the cheapest restaurant around, so make sure your wallet is ready to try some of the more unique items.

This is my first visit here. I received a coupon by mail for a free Flamm of choice. I decided to come in and check them out.
As soon as we entered the establishment we received a warm welcome by two lovely ladies. Then we headed to our spacey booth. We ordered a Manhattan Flamm from a menu that resembled a newspaper and washed it down with a pitcher of their freshly brewed amber beer (so fresh the brewery containers are right next to you!) then ended the night with chocolate hazelnut dip sweets. (pictures below)
Flamm was fresh and delicious. Crispy thin crust right out of the oven. Amber beer was fresh, smooth, and not bitter. Chocolate Hazelnut is a must! Prices are very reasonable. Staff are wonderful and clearly love doing their job.
I strongly recommend this establishment to all beer lovers, Flamm lovers, sweets lovers, and business owners who are still wondering why their establishment has a rating of 3 stars or below on Unilocal

3 Brewers though is a franchise but maybe the only Brewery Pub in the area.
Disclaimer: I was lurked in by the promise of free tasting of every single beer on tap and a neighborhood beer which is unique to each location.
Since it just opens yesterday, everything is new including all the staff. Excited and eager to please.
Great spot to come for a pint or 2. And of course some snack too!
Neighborhood Beer is Postal Farmhouse Ale (Richmond Hill)
