Excellence! Tess and her team at The Steam Whistle are the epitome of excellence on all levels.
Their commitment to excellence is evident at every step and stage of planning right through to the event day ! Tess and team went above and beyond for C and J's wedding, with an "Unmatched attention to detail" , resulting in a memorable and " top shelf" event for all of the guests- most of whom had never been to Toronto, or Canada.
It is without a single hesitation that our family recommends The Steam Whistle !

Our wedding day at Steam Whistle was everything we had ever dreamed of! Every person on the team made our day extra special, from the servers, bartenders and set-up staff, to the venue supervisor who helped everything go smoothly - everyone made sure our day was cared for and we were in such good hands! The venue is so stunning, the string lights made the dance floor so beautiful! Downtown Toronto on a hot summer night is such a perfect spot and easily accessible for everyone to enjoy. I would 100% recommend this spectacular venue to anyone who loves the city and wants a perfect brewery wedding!

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Tess, Deniz and the entire Steam Whistle team for bringing our wedding vision to life so flawlessly. Our July 12th celebration was everything we dreamed of and more. So much of that is thanks to your care, professionalism and above and beyond service.

Tess, you were a guiding light from the start. Organized, thoughtful and always a step ahead. Your support leading up to the day helped us feel calm, confident and genuinely excited. And Deniz…wow. On the day of you and your crew delivered! Every detail was executed with such grace and precision. You truly stepped up and made everything run so smoothly behind the scenes and we noticed (so did our guests!).

We’re still getting messages from friends and family raving about how beautiful everything was and how seamless the day felt. That’s all because of the dream team that is Tess and Deniz.

Steam Whistle wasn’t just our venue. It became a part of our love story. Thank you for making us feel supported, celebrated and cared for from start to finish. We’ll treasure these memories forever.

With endless gratitude,
Alvin & Tobin

Huge thanks to Steam Whistle and the Food Dudes for organizing and delivering a fabulous and safe corporate holiday event amid huge constraints. From the outset, the team at Steam Whistle was in solution mode for us... they managed to deliver a socially distanced event for a large group that ended up feeling warm and intimate. The menu was fantastic, with passed appetizers, passed desserts, and four outstanding food stations to meet all tastes and dietary needs. The room was beautiful with the addition of a round bar and gorgeous table settings. Above all else, and as mentioned by other reviewers, the service was extraordinary. From the first phone call to the delivery of the final invoice - consummate professionalism, helpful advice, friendly and positive attitude. We could not have asked for better.

We would not have been able to have a wedding without all your help and support. It was like a dream! How amazing to have a wedding in this beautiful place at the heart of Toronto! Stunning flowers and lovely balloons were just perfect. The most important thing is professional and kind staff! You are the charm of Steamwhistle! We were touched by your service. Thank you for making our wedding so pleasant and special.

Steam Whistle is hands down one of my favourite venues in the city! It has history, elegance and ambiance rolled into one package. It's a bonus that there are multiple event spaces within the brewery and each can be dressed a little or dressed a lot to work with all types of events be it corporate, weddings or social. I highly recommend this venue and the amazing team known as the Good Beer Folk!!

Steam Whistle is by far one of the best venues in Toronto. Not only for its iconic and ideal location; but for the space distribution and facilities. We are very happy to be able to help them with the staff Inquiries they have. It was an honor to be part of “In service of Love wedding”; a great initiative that took place in August 2020 where as part of a collective, we supported a hospitality worker during one of most difficult times the industry has ever seen. Thanks Steam Whistle for letting us being part of this and many more events!

We are so blessed to have worked with the incredible staff at Steam Whistle Brewery. Everyone was so welcoming, accommodating and made us feel like we were at home. The attention to safety protocols and following all rules made everyone feel safe and cared for. From the venue supervisors to the event staff, DJ and sound technicians we were able to focus on marrying our couple and delivering our ceremony to their invited guests. Thank you for everything you did to make us feel so welcome in your venue.

Steam Whistle is hands down the coolest venue in downtown Toronto, and a favourite to cater in! Now with the addition of the sleek Locomotive Hall, this venue offers two unique spaces for large groups. Both spaces offer great flexibility with set up and design. The industrial rustic look and feel of the venue works perfectly with the downtown vibe. We're proud to have catered fabulous events at Steam Whistle and look forward to many more!
