Open late, decent selection of beers and the food was good. Onion rings and smash burger were on point. Nice ambience and attentive staff.

We love The Merch! The staff are great and the food is delicious! Their Reuben sandwich is SO good and their beet salad is one of the best in the region. Their fries are legit and we were so happy to see that they just added onion rings to their new winter menu. The Beer Board is such a fun plate of food (I wish it came with some Keens or horseradish mustard). They also usually have awesome bands on Sunday night! A great spot if you're downtown, going to PAC or the Meridian Center.

Great fish and chips after an Ice Dog Game. Two pieces of haddock and a good portion size. Stylish atmosphere and brewing some of their own beer. Had the Jacked and Juicy hazy IPA which was great. Happy hour after each Ice Dogs game.

Decided to try this restaurant and we were pleasantly surprised! Burgers are juicy and flavourful, Mac n cheese with salad delicious! Great vibe and Jake our server helped us with the menu, great personality…we will be back!

Good food. Good beer. Friendly staff. Younger crowd than me since I'm old now but didn't seem to be a problem. Really the only problem I had was I wasn't sure who was staff and who wasn't. Beers to go is a nice feature, too.

The beer here is genuinely phenomenal. My favorite was definitely the Blueberry with Hockey as a close second. I also had a burger and fries, and it was great. The service was fantastic, too, and you can tell there are a lot of regulars here. I would definitely recommend a visit

Took an old friend here for both our first times and this place was great. Fast and friendly service with great food. The atmosphere was nice and old wooden. I had the quiche and my friend had the burger, we also shared the pretzel knots. The meals were fantastic and fairly priced. If you are in this area and looking for a bite to eat, this is the spot! 5 of 5.
