Toronto is about to boast a sprawling new brewpub, complete with a full kitchen and retail shop. Eastbound Brewing Co. will open smack dab in the heart of resurgent Riverside in a 3,500 square foot space right beside the Broadview Hotel. The opening date is pegged at sometime in early 2017.
The open concept, 80-seat space will include a fully functioning in-house brewery, a beer focused kitchen and menu from chef Tara Lee, a retail shop with cans to takeaway and suds from Brewmaster David Lee, formerly of Kensington Brewing Company, Mill Street Brewery and Grand River Brewing.
The building's history includes a furniture store and short lived cinema called the Teck Theatre. Visitors will be able to see the kitchen and brewery from any seat in the house.
