The George Hamilton Restaurant & Bar - Hamilton, Ontario

Stopped here twice over the weekend for a bite and brew. Beer is cold and refreshing. Service is friendly and helpful. Portions were more than generous. Fish and Chips, fish tacos among recommendations

Great little pub/brewery with a great selection of beers and food, recommend the meatballs. Will definitely be back next time I’m in town.

Came on Saturday for dinner, around 4pm. First thing I got to say is this place is a very cool bar/pub/tavern. The atmosphere is great, the craft beer was very tasteful and the food was all fresh. I made sure we had reservations as this place gets very busy and ... it did. We got the pizza dip, spinach dip for apps and both were amazing, pizza dip isn't something I've had before, very unique tasting. The pretzel bread, was probably some of the best pretzels I've had. Then got the Carolina Sticky Fried Chicken Sandwich, amazing all the sauce, topping and chicken itself came together for a very good sandwich. Service was also great, our waitress was great with recommendations and attentiveness when we needed something. If I'm ever back in downtown Hamilton will be back. Read more

My husband and I came here on a whim before a show at First Ontario Concert Hall. I'm glad we did, had a wonderful dinner and I loved the atmosphere. The waitress was run off her feet but she was still killing it.

Planned on a meal before attending Disney on Ice on a Friday afternoon. We were attending 3 pm show, arrived at George Hamilton just before 1 which was just after the previous show had let out. Waited for about 10 minutes for a table, a short lineup was evident, and it ... was also apparent there were a number of reservations, but a considerable number of empty tables as well. The groups throughout the restaurant were like ours, parents with children who were attending the show or who had just attended. To expedite the process we placed our entire order for our table all at once just after we were seated at 1. What we thought would be quick to make (deep fried chicken sandwiches, tenders, and a burger) were not at all quick. By the time 2:30 rolled around we had not had a plate of food and many tables around us wee were waiting for food as well. To avoid a full meltdown of our children one in our party ran to a nearby A&W so we would have something to eat before the show. As we had a view of the kitchen it seemed like there were major issues with time management. Staff seemed to be waiting to finish making one dish/plate before starting another. This left a number of people frustrated throughout the restaurant, and many people without food, or left to be scrambling to shovel food in before the show. The only saving grace for the meal was our server who was also the hostess who was trying her best to keep her composure and cool despite the kitchen not being able to maintain service. For lunch time on a Friday, with shows across the street, it was a major disappointment of a meal. Read more
