Love this place. Being from the UK, I miss the british pub! So, this place is a little bit of that… It is also a micro brewery, and their beer is worthy of several return visits. I've also eaten here and the food is good. It isn't 5 star restaurant but very tasty… with friendly and knowledgeable staff knowing their menu and beer…. A must for a brew pub. 😉Highly recommended…

Good variety of home brews and other Ontario Craft beers. Attentive friendly staff. Lovely backyard patio.

I love KBC. It is my favourite *non-fancy* eats in town. They have a great menu with amazing food. It is also very reasonably priced, especially when you consider how much food they provide to you. The service is usually great, although it can get quite busy and sometimes you wait a while; however, that can happen at any restaurant so it is by no means a big deal. Everyone must try KBC!

The food and service is excellent. The staff is courteous. Loved the atmosphere of the place, and truly loved the 'leg lamp'. The terrace is a nice place to sit if you enjoy eating outside. If you enjoy eating fish, you will love the salmon cakes.

Had dinner with the family while visiting Kingston. Delicious meal. We ordered two appetizers and a kids meal and shared it among the 4 of us. Very pleased with the flavours and taste! Really enjoyed it everything.

This place is amazing! It's like an old school pub from the UK! Over 40 different kinds of beers including their own brewed in house! Great food for a good home cooked style meal! Would highly recommend this place to those looking for good beer, good food and a great old school atmosphere!
Dan Kelly
One of the best places to be in downtown Kingston. Highly recommend the Dragon's Breath Cask aged ale.
Jason Bakonyi
The food was absolutely delicious and presented in a professional manner. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who asks. Service is excellent and worth the wait.

I understand you are a brewery but you should have some known brands..not everyone is into these craft beers. Staying at four points and just want a dinner and a Heineken..now my money goes somewhere else.
Jeff Chubb
Went on an August holiday to Kingston, stopping in for some lunch with the family. The food was great and the service excellent. Their in house brew was enjoyed as well. If your in the mood for pub fare, I recommend.
Angus Chan
Kingston's oldest brewery doesn't disappoint. The White Tail Cream Ale is highly recommended. Had their fish and chips - one of the best in the city.The interior has lots of beer memorabilia that you can't resist looking around.

I love this place. It’s definitely been one of my favourites since I was of legally drinking age. It’s nice to just go sit down in a cozy spot, look at all the photos and interesting things on the walls and relax. I think I’ve almost fallen asleep in a booth once or twice (don’t do that, I don’t think they like that.) The wait staff are friendly and knowledgeable on their brews. I’ve been drinking the white tail beer, cran apple cider, and John strong cider for years - they’re all great. The cider sangria is pretty great in the summer on the patio as well. If you’re going to try anything, you need to try the wings. I can’t even tell you how many pounds of those things I’ve eaten over the years but I can’t get enough. It seems to be becoming a place more people bring kids to these days, which I’m not a giant fan of, but they definitely are doing something right. I honestly just can’t say enough good things. I’ve made a lot of good memories here.

Great beer selection and good pub food. Staff is normally super helpful and attentive but the last couple times it seems our waiter has been distracted and service has been a little on the slow side. If you're not in a rush, a fantastic place to go.
Sean Philpott
The selection of taps is great, the in house brews are awesome, I would recommend this as somewhere you have to try when you come to Kingston. There is lots of interesting things on the walls to look at. You will notice something new every time you come in. The food was great as well, the house smoked meat is beautiful. My first time here and I can't wait to come back.
Mackenzie Mohr
Awesome vibes! It was decorated for Christmas which added a very cozy feel to it, but the traditional pub decor was interesting and added a good environment to it. The bar was busy, but the wait staff got us drinks as we waited by the bar for a table.The food was fantastic! Definitely exceeded expectations for pub food, and it had really good smoked items on the menu. All in all, excellent food for typical pub prices.The beer was also very good. They have an excellent range of their own beers that they brew and an even wider selection of other craft beers - all in all I would definitely recommend and will definitely be returning!
Jennifer Fernyc
Great selection of beers. Food was solid for a Brewhouse, with lots of options for a group or families. Great for hanging out with friends or grabbing a quick meal.
Kelly John
Good pub fare, I tried the beyond meat burger; couldn’t tell the difference! Great decor, friendly staff but was a little unsure as whether or not I had to wait to be seated. Very decent beer selection. Lots of choices as to where to sit. Pricing was normal for a pub.
Darren
Excellent food and service. Highly recommend the KBC Royale with Cheese with the Dunkelnacht dark ale. The Tawse Reisling was also delicious :)
glenn ethier
Great selection of beer, awesome nachos!
Tara Moneypenny
Fantastic pick up dinner tonight to support local! Burger Royale, the chicken burger (juiciest ever) and chicken pot pie were ALL delicious — and the fries didn’t get soggy on the way home! 🙌🼠Thanks KBP!
Scott Beer
Excellent selection of beers from Local Breweries, Ontario Breweries and beyond. KBC brew as well. Service is good. Food is good. And this is a great place to visit. A must experience when in Kingston.
David Rodrigues
Good food. Amazing beer selection, probably the best curated tap selection in Kingston. Their own brews aren't as strong as some newer microbreweries in the area but they are still solid.
Quinn Hollohan
Great brewpub with a large selection of great beer. Then menu was full of pub food and the waitress was super helpful with a recommendation of the Royale with cheese.! Was so good I forgot to take a picture. Would highly recommend.
Maher Jebara
Sooooooo good. First off service is super fast. They took our orders right away and with minutes had the drinks. Ne t the food came within 6 minutes nice and fresh. Food was tasty and the portions were huge. I didn’t even finish my plate. Prices are also good. Overall easy five out of five.
Daryl Tremain
Friendly, flexible and as delicious as always. I was there with three kids -- very easy. Really enjoyed the Regal Ale and the white chocolate cake (which also has dark chocolate in it, the combo mattress it).If you have the chicken nuggets, as for them plain or they come with sauce.
Natasha Varjacic
Excellent food and service. Highly recommend the KBC Royale with Cheese with the Dunkelnacht dark ale. The Tawse Reisling was also delicious :)
Gavin Doyle
A good local brewery and pub located in a historical location of Kingston. Polished wooden interior gives a great representation of the history and age of the building.The dragon pale ale was a pleasant drink to enjoy. The KCB Club was quite filling and not done in the way most club sandwiches are done. Caesar salad was also pleasant.Enjoyable if you are looking for a nice bite to eat.
Lisa Wells
Great staff and selection of beers!
Tom Uzi
The ambiance at night was fantastic. It was a beautiful July evening and we sat outside.A pint and some pub food topped the evening off.
Tony Austwick
Fantastic gem of a place. The inside is filled with character and very nostalgic displays. But what you really go somewhere like this for us the beer and I must say it is freaking awesome!!! The IPA and the dark ale are both superb. Even if you don’t like Stout, try the dark ale, it is something special. Food was also good. It’s pub affair but I love that stuff. Must go if in town.
Rob Johnston
Great beer in one of Kingston's finest pubs. Its own draft from the brew pub is worth stopping in for on a drive past on the 401. Both Dragon's Breath and Dunkle Nacht are fine beers unique to this place.
Joseph Samuel
Some of the best food you can get in the Kingston area. Been here several times and have never been disappointed.Just a few of the items I've tried from here: burger, fried chicken sandwich, chicken wings, ghetto bites. The fried chicken sandwich was my favourite, and it's easily one of the best fried chicken sandwiches I've ever had. The chicken is crispy yet juicy, the fries are spectacular, and the portion size is excellent. If you're in the area, do yourself a favour and stop by.Follow @foodpharaoh on Instagram for more food
Mike R
Great food. The fish was great, wings were banging and the cannibal chicken double IPA was stellar.
Dave Coleman
Great local draft selection.
Thiago Vidotto
The place is just beautifully arranged and cozy. I had the pastrami sandwich and it was fantastic. One of the best I have eaten. They provide a really nice barbecue-like sauce which works perfectly with the sandwich. The staff is also really nice. Will definitely return to get some beer and other appetizers.
Rostyk H
Their IPA and lager beer are great! Very nice atmosphere and right next to the waterfront. Great pub
Kris Born
Pretty sweet place, lots of choices of beer, with some very tasty ones on tap. We had a great time and polished off about 12 pitchers. Staff was quick to keep us replenished, and the place was busy.
john armitage
A happy pub! Good BBQ platter with craft beers. My go two spot in Kingston!
Amber Ramirez
Such a wonderful place to have a meal. Absolutely every aspect of our meal was excellent:We tried the dip sampler and my friend had the chicken schwarma platter. The dips were all delicious and rich, and the pita was fresh and warm. The garlic aioli was also strong and creamy.
Mahsa Salmani
A very nice and special-decorated place with super friendly staff. We tried craft beers and some appetizers, they were all fresh and delicious. We will be back there to try the rest of menu for sure 😊
Chris Clement
Good service, although a little slow at the beginning. Excellent selection of local beers. Good BBQ platter - advertised for 2 people but the two of us only got half-way through it.
Elise Coulombe
Came here with my family and the food is absolutely incredible. Best brewery food I have had to this day. I 100% recommend this place if you like good food!!!
Curtis Pinnegar
Best smoked ribs and brisket ever. Incredible tap list. Wow
Ron Ulysses Swanson
Great food. Great service (Molly is my favourite server) and always friendly and consistent. Awesome selection of local breweries finest.Please bring back the creamy jalepeno-cheddar soup! Best soup I've had anywhere 🤙
Nick Kanellos
Great pub with a very broad menu.Awesome beers that are brewed at the establishment. Also has a great outdoor courtyard patio at the back during the summer. Also great for groups.Would highly recommend reservations if you are a large group.Love the chicken wings!!!!
Rose Nguyen
I absolutely love the interior design of the restaurant. It is very attractive to visitors who are visiting the city. I came on a rainy day and was welcomed by very courteous staff. I was given the choice to sit anywhere in the restaurant and chose the prettiest little table right by the window. It was a very enjoyable meal as we ordered the BBQ feast platter. The slaw was my absolute favourite. Great service and food!
Chris Santillo
We had a wonderful lunch here. Our waitress was very friendly and help. We tried a couple of different beers, they have 26 on top, and settled on some then we really liked. The food was delicious, though the salmon cakes were a little skimpy. the club sandwiches we're the best thing that we ordered, and the side salads were wonderful. We highly recommend this place and we'll come back if we are ever in Kingston again.
Dale Cogswell
Had the fish and chips. Huge piece of fish done to perfection and nicely cooked chips. Fast and efficient service and fairly priced.
Leash B
Justin was a fantastic and cute bartender. The atmosphere and the decor was awesome. I bought a hoodie and it's so comfy and soft! My friend loved all the beer she tried. It was awesome!
Vince DE Marinis
