I obviously love to cook at home but going out to restaurants is also one of my favourite things to do. So I decided that every Friday I will share with you, the restaurant I have been loving most. This weeks restaurant is Beertown in Waterloo.
This restaurant has such a great atmosphere, as soon as you walk in the staff give you a warm welcome and quickly get you to a table. All the waiters and waitresses are so friendly and talkative which is definitely one of my favourite parts of Beertown. The location is also great. It is located uptown Waterloo so there is plenty to do before or after you go there.
Now lets get to the most important part of any restaurant, the food! Every time I go there I love what I eat. The meals are all so flavorful and well presented. They also don’t take forever to arrive which is always a plus. My personal favourite dish to get there is the “California Turkey Burger” but if you want to know even more of their options, here is a copy of the menu from the Beertown website.
