A cute and eclectic bar on James street. Serves cocktails and craft beers, a great place for a casual outing!

Felt like a coffee shop but was a bar. Great craft beer selection. Quick service. Chill vibes. Would love to come back the next time I’m in town.

Simply the best selection of beers we came across in Hamilton. Some brilliant beer from Badlands, Third Moon, Counterpart & even a Chimay beer on draught. Highly recommended if in Hamilton

Burst through the door here on a Saturday night like someone owed me money. My old man and I were out tearing it up before he was going away for 2-3. We saddled up at the bar rail and let it fly. We pounded Black Russian after Black Russian until the heavy set woman beside us became unrecistable. Autopilot took over around 1am and I woke up on the floor of a Motel 6. 10/10 would recommend this bar if your father is going to jail.

The first couple of times I came, I didn’t like the atmosphere, but every time since it has grown exponentially on me. The beer selection is extensive and the atmosphere is right between crowded and cozy. If you can get a seat on the back patio in good weather, you can’t beat it.
Reminds me of what I loved about Johnny’s Coffee (RIP).

Friends have been talking about this bar for a long time, and I finally ended up going. The venue is chill, with a cool atmosphere. It's dark and feels dingy, but in a good way. The wall art is unique and gives you lots to look at during your visit. They have lots to offer for cocktails and beers and also have small snacks to munch on while you're there. The samosas were tasty. Overall, it was a great experience. I would recommend this place for before dinner drinks.

Always love going to The Brain. Amazing selection of craft beer, cider, cocktails and shots.
I haven't eaten here yet, we usually go for a drink but they do serve some food items.
We especially love the eclectic decor and vibe.

Cool little spot with a serious craft beer listing and probably one of the only craft beer bars with Portuguese vinho verde so that's kind of neat. Small and dim, quiet atmosphere.
