Folly Brewpub

Had a great romantic evening, great ambiance, very friendly staff — chalk full of information. This is a whiskey bar with a million choices, they also brew their beer in house. Food seemed a little over priced 4 chicken wings for 9 $ but we did go in for their special of the day which was 6 $ mussels, which was great! I definitely will be back.

Agreed with the other reviewer. Lots of potential, but not great yet.
Beers were great. We tried multiple types of Foley Brewing varieties and all were different but good in their own way, especially Inkhorn and Flemish Cap.
Food was good, but small portions. Warning on the nachos: it’s only 4 chips with lots of lettuce. It was good, just unexpected. Wings were good, but the plate came with only four. Poutine was also good, but small portion and didn’t use cheese curds.
Service was a little strange. One server was good. One other girl came around occasionally without an introduction. I’m not sure if they worked as a team or if they got their tables confused.
Music: not good. Clearly one (short) playlist was on repeat. We heard the same 60-​minute song set 2 – 3 times. It’s not that difficult to get a longer playlist from Songza.
Overall: They have a couple easy improvements to make. Lots of potential given the great beer and atmosphere.

Really digging this place. I see a lot of potential and hope it does well. Folly Brewpub is withing the building that used to be «Habits Gastropub» and I must say that I’m much more enthused by what Folly is doing. Interior is a long bar at the front, a big communal style table, and then hightop 4 seaters for the stretch alongside the open kitchen, and finally more standard tables in the back close to their brewing rooms. Lots of exposed brick and beam and well accented décor, this place has a good vibe about it.
I love beer sampling and this place offers flights of four 5oz glasses, each 5oz glass ranging in the $ 2.5-$ 3 range. Pints are $ 7.5 on average. I tried about 6 different beers and really like most of what I drank. Really enjoyed the «Rhizome: Mosaic/​Calypso» hoppy farmhouse ale specifically, but none were bad and each had their own flavours and appeal.
On the food tip, their charcuterie meat board was well prepared and the chicken and waffles rather tasty as well. I especially liked how the chicken was boneless and the chicken to waffle ratio was big enough for equal fork filling parts of meat and waffle, making it good for sharing.
Service left a bit of something to be desired, and they had live music going on which normally is a plus but in this case was not… There were multiple people performing and the sound would go from a decent level to distractingly loud as the artists changed. I’m sure they’ll learn to actually manage the sound better with more events, and not snub customers as time progresses as well, and at that point I can see this place being a proper 5 stars.
