The Garrison House

On a sunny afternoon, the aroma of sizzling burgers draws you into The Garrison House in Niagara-on-the-Lake. This laid-back gastropub is a favorite among locals, and it’s easy to see why. The spacious patio is perfect for soaking up the sun, while the cozy interior invites you to relax by the fireplace. You’ll find a lively crowd here, from families enjoying a weekend treat to friends catching up over craft beer. Their Friday Fish Fry is a must-try, crispy and flavorful, with a side of tangy tartar sauce that’s just right. I’ve been here multiple times, and each visit feels like a warm hug from the community. The Sticky Toffee Pudding is a delightful surprise, rich and comforting, perfect for sharing or indulging solo.

Pro tip: Get here early to snag a table outside during the summer. You’ll often see the same faces, a testament to how welcoming this place feels. The energy is vibrant, filled with laughter and chatter, making it a perfect spot for a casual night out. With no reservations needed, it’s easy to pop in whenever the mood strikes. Come for the food, stay for the atmosphere, and leave with a full heart. It's a slice of local life you won’t want to miss.
