at Cake & Loaf
For a beachfront snack, Hamiltonians have
been frequenting Hutch’s since 1946. The
diner is beloved for its fish and chips, cones,
milkshakes, and old-school decor.
Craft Beer
Hamilton’s growing craft beer scene includes
a number of beautiful spaces around the city
to visit for a cold one. In addition to its drink
offerings, Merit Brewing offers a menu of
shareables and unique sausage options to
enjoy at the communal tables.
Other notable craft breweries include
Fairweather Brewing Company,
Grain&Grit, Shawn & Ed Brewing Co.,
Rust City Brewery, and Collective Arts
Brewing. Collective Arts’ award-winning
beers are celebrated for their limited-edition
artwork on the cans and labels — and make
for a tasty souvenir to bring home!
Aberdeen Tavern
Capri Ristorante, opened in 1963, is known
for traditional pizzas and pastas — both
Hamilton mainstays.
For something more trendy, Aberdeen
Tavern belongs to the same family of the
more recently opened The French and The
Shawn & Ed Brewing Co., on Hatt Street
Diplomat, all excellent choices for upscale
food and drink in stylish environments.
Ancaster Mill and Edgewater Manor
are elegant options for special occasions.
