Beyond the Pale Brewing Company

Great selection of beers with interesting seasonal selection. They have a really spacious spot with plenty of parking. Food is generally quite good. The brisket sandwich is really a home run.

My only real gripe with this place is the serving style. Seat yourself, scan the menu, order and pay online and tip pre-service. If you want you can go to the bar to order. The servers don’t really check on you, just deliver what you order.

Some other details could use refining too. Food is served on plastic plates with a couple of ketchup packets for example. Adds to the feeling of this place being a kind of upscale cafeteria with craft beer. Feels like a cost saving measure, and fair enough, but improving that part of the experience would go a long way in my books.

Fantastic beer and great selection. Love the seating inside and out. The food was really great too! Got a bunch of beer to go as well!

Waiters are pre-Madonna’s that want to be in a library not. Bar. Too much attitude and not enough service.

Beers were cold, poutine was nice. Cauliflower wings/bites or whatever you call them need a little pizzaz, they weren’t anything you couldn’t do in your air fryer. Prices are abit high to, especially with the service style they have (casual). After tip, the app items came to 32$

We’ve been a few times, and will be back. This time was just a touch disappointing

They are so accommodating, you just have to make sure to order at the bar or on the app. But they are super friendly and lovely. They are never mean and they won't hit your funny bone.

Delicious beer and amazing customer service! They clearly are passionate about their beer and want you to be fully satisfied. Thank you for being awesome

A great spot to unwind, enjoy some world class beers and some great food. They offer a very nice selection of many types of beer alongside many other alternatives. There’s something for everyone. A fairly extensive menu gives you many choices for the meat lovers and the vegetarians alike. Highly recommend the cauliflower “wings” and their Jerk Chicken. Although food prices may seem high, the portions are huge and the price is justified by the quality and size. There’s tons of room for small or large groups. Not the quietest place for a tête à tête but alas it is a brew pub after all. Do yourself a favour and drop in to enjoy excellent cold drinks and hot food served plentiful and timely. Only set back was that because “everyone” serves and hands out orders, no one came by to check on how the food was. All in all it was but a minor setback and won’t keep me from going back!

My recent visit to Beyond the Pale Brewing Company in Ottawa was an absolute pleasure, thanks in no small part to my wonderful hostess, Rose. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I knew I was in for a treat.

The atmosphere at Beyond the Pale is warm and inviting, with a cozy and rustic charm that instantly puts you at ease. The staff members are friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about their craft, and Rose exemplified these qualities throughout my visit.

The venue itself provides a relaxed and comfortable setting to enjoy your chosen libation. The rustic decor and the welcoming ambiance create an ideal backdrop for conversations among friends or a casual evening out. The space is well laid out, ensuring that everyone can find their own little nook to relax and unwind.

Lastly, I must commend Rose for her exceptional hospitality. She was attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about the beers they offer. Her enthusiasm and knowledge added an extra layer of enjoyment to my experience, making me feel like a valued guest throughout my visit.

We in to share a flight of beer with my son. Friendly staff and quick service. Beer was good. The Pink Fuzz stood out.

Beer is great, food is good. They still seem to be running a pandemic style use of QR code links to an online menu and online ordering model that doesn't understand which restaurant you are in or which table you are at. Online payment once you complete an order is simple. But ordering further rounds of beer or food means going through the whole process again. Diminished the overall experience.

Service was snappy and staff were friendly. Not really a huge beer guy, but they managed to find an option for me.

Not trying the pulled pork tacos would be a crime, and the cauliflower wings with their Father Time hot sauce goes hard.

Wouldn't go again. I don't like that you have to order on your phone and pay with VISA. Also overpriced in my opinion.

Beer is good, the food is fine, but way too expensive. Went on the weekend for brunch. Each entree was ~$20, and avocado toast was a single piece of toast, with half an avocado, spinach, a fried egg, and pickled-onion on top. It was fine, but ~$20? Come-on, BTP! Won't be going back.

Prices are a bit much for no table service. Even with no table service, I would expect some customer service Nobody came by to ask how our food was. Hamburger, Nashville chicken, and cauliflower bites were very good however, the ribs were very disappointing. (2 members of our party had them) Extremely small portion (3 ribs) and were dry and not fall off the bone like you would expect to see in well cooked ribs. May or may not go again.

The beer is great and on its own, would earn 5 stars. The sit-down experience, however, was atrocious and someone higher up needs to really reconsider what they’ve set up. While trying to be innovative with QR codes and online ordering right to your table, this left a huge gap in basic restaurant service - no one was specifically there to guide us through the beers or the menu; when I tried to ask about potential allergies, the guy told me he’d go ask but then just straight up never came back to our table; and the servers/table cleaners weren’t adequately trained in service for basic things like reaching over us to grab empty glasses, checking if we are done our pints several times over 5 minutes, or when asking us “is everything good here? ”, actually waiting to hear my answer.

There’s no one I can even specifically say did their job poorly, and I don’t blame the staff. This is absolutely systemic based on the decision to not have any accountability for any customers, and no training on how to make this innovative idea actually result in a better experience.

Also, the food wasn’t super fresh, felt like they relied on the deep fryer and pre-made food too much

To start off the staff there are so friendly and kind and just want to make sure that everything goes right for you. After that the food is just beyond amazing. Takes almost no time to get to you and you can really tell the chefs put their heart into it. It's clearly a great environment by the staff and the people who go in. I really hope more people check this place out. It really is five out of 5 stars

Great spacious venue with lots of interesting art work on the walls. Very friendly servers and reasonably priced beers

Vish and his team are such professionals. Had an unfortunate experience and was resolved quickly and thoroughly. Grateful for the opportunity to speak to Vish and he was so attentive and took accountability. Would happily recommend this place to friends and looking forward to going back!

Good food, good beer. Not the cheapest, not the most expensive. Nice large venue with lots of seating. Very slight inconvenience of having to use my phone and enter my CC for each order.theoretically the staff is doing less so tipping should be adjusted accordingly. Theoretically.
