I thoroughly enjoyed my afternoon here on the patio. Tried a flight and a Belgian Blonde. Discovered that you can cycle here via bicycle trails and visit other wineries and breweries as well. The public school building set up is intriguing and inviting. Nice bar inside and outdoor patio.

Last night we decided to take a drive out to New Limberg Brewing Company for a drink and something to eat. This place is in an old school house seemingly in the middle of nowhere between Simcoe and Delhi. As you walk in you enter an empty area with tables in it. You continue walking to the left where you are then greeted by the friendly staff. So I will be 100% transparent with you about the next part which is also the reason for a 3 star atmosphere rating. So the staff asked us if we were there for beer or if we wished to dine in. Of course we said we were looking to dine in. I was completely thrown off by the fact that there is a seating fee of $8.50 per person. The reason on the menu was to give the best experience. I have never ever come across a seating fee before. We reluctantly agreed to the seating fee and were then seated. It was a way fancier dining experience than I was expecting also and I felt a little under dressed. The ambiance was warm, cozy and a little upscale. The food (which was the reason we went) is inspired by dutch and Indonesian culture. There were staples of dutch fare like croquettes, bitterballen, and of course raw herring with onions. There was also of course a range of french fry options including toppings like mayo, curry and peanut sauce. They also have really good pizza options as well if you aren't feeling adventurous. The boy had a dutch meat pie which was a lot like a shepherd's pie but with curry spices. I opted for the greek pizza which was absolutely delicious. The dough is probably one of the best I have ever had. If you aren't into the seating fee and just want to try the beer. You can sit in the hall (much like being punished at school as a kid haha) and enjoy a flight from a table out there. I tried the Belgian Blond, Petit Blond,Wit and Grisette and enjoyed them all very much. All in all we had a really nice time. So if you are looking for a bit of adventure and to try something new THIS is the place to go.

Our party of 4 enjoyed a great dinner at this interesting Brewery. We received good service from Zandra. She was very friendly too. We left her a 20% tip. Reviewing our bill (sadly after leaving the Brewery)...(receipt posted here too) We saw 1 classic Caesar $15.95 Mock Really? It wasn't as if it was a particularly fancy one, and what would one with vodka cost? It definitely was a mock Caesar because it was for our designated driver. The rest of our party drank 2-3 beers each because we had a DD. I really hope this very high charge (for a glass of clamato juice) was an error. We'll see ...

One of the best restaurants in the entire SWO and definitely the best in the South Simcoe area. Great brewery as well. Me and my family went for a late dinner and they made us feel extremely comfortable and well served. The food was amazing and I’m truly glad we had the opportunity to visit and dine at their restaurant (and buy a case of 12 large beer bottles as well! Thanks again!!!

Delightful stopover for bitterballen at this Dutch microbrewery in Norfolk county! Great backyard patio - friendly owners - lovely Belgian style craft beer. We stopped for a snack and a drink - and brought some of their delightful beers with us for camping; would come back to try their Dutch cuisine!

Amazing food quality, beer selection and atmosphere. All five stars. Had the bitterballen, spring rolls and baked Brie as apps and Nasi Goreng as a main one day then went back the same weekend for chicken wings and pizza. So good we went twice in one weekend. Thank you!

This is a beautiful spot! We happened upon it while looking around a farm nearby and wanted to stop in and it was even better than we could have hoped for. The owner is lovely and not overbearing. We had the place to ourselves for the first little bit but even once the other tables filled up we didn’t feel overwhelmed or forgotten about. We got the blonde ale and the table beer which we liked and tried the bitterballen, the Dutch sausage, a grilled cheese and a pizza and all were amazing. We loved everything but the stand out was definitely the fries all dressed up because it was new and delicious! You can tell the care that is put into the meals and the quality of Al the ingredients used. We will absolutely be back and definitely want to try their dinner menu!
