January 2020:

Happy New Year! We are looking forward to a wonderful year ahead of health, happiness and adventure!

2019 Year in Review

2019 was a year filled with great new businesses opening their doors, and a boom in our tourism industry here in Niagara. We've rounded up our favourites from 2019:

Best of 2019

New Restaurant: Dispatch Restaurant (St. Catharines, Opened March 2019)

A zero-waste, experiential restaurant that mixes North African, Middle Eastern and Balkan flavours. Dispatch opened up their doors earlier this year and has quickly been named one of Canada's top 10 "Best New Restaurants" in EnRoute Magazine.

New Brewery: Counterpart Brewing (Niagara Falls, Opened March 2019)

Great beer, food and community. Counterpart Brewing prides itself on these three main pillars. With an industrial yet natural atmosphere, Counterpart has quickly become a local favourite and it's easy to see why.

New Distillery: Niagara Distillery & Restaurant (Niagara Falls, Opened August 2019)

The two-level distillery and restaurant is situated on Clifton Hill and Falls Ave., with an outdoor patio and 6 signature spirits to boot. With access to 4 hotels on-site and a stone's throw away from the Falls, this is a must-stop on your next trip down to Clifton Hill.

What's Cook'n Niagara?

Have you ever wanted to enjoy dinner in your very-own snow globe? Now you can! This trendy new dining experience has hit Niagara and we have two great options for you; an upscale, dining experience overlooking the Falls with a large group or a more intimate, experience that lends itself to a romantic date-night.

Snow Globe Soiree

The Niagara Ice Wine Festival and Niagara Parks have created a one-of-a-kind dining experience for those looking for a unique and unforgettable evening. Nestled inside a domed-igloo, six guests are treated to a three-course meal prepared by some of the finest Wine Country chefs and two bottles of premium-VQA wines. With cozy blankets, twinkling lights, and a breathtaking view of the Falls, this ninety-minute dinner is a perfect way to spoil yourself and some friends. Each Snow Globe Reservation is $999.00 CAD (taxes extra) and can be booked online here.

Taris on the Water

Taris on the Water is a local-favourite with rave reviews online through OpenTable, Trip Advisor and Yelp. With a carefully curated menu of delicious selections from Braised Lamb Shanks to a Butternut Squash Ravioli, there is a reason this is a must-try in Niagara. Throughout the Winter, Taris on the Water sets up their own Igloos on the brink of the Welland Canal so guests can enjoy a beautiful evening inside their own heated dome. Reservations for the domes are $25.00 CAD and must be made by calling the restaurant at (905) 788-0123.
