We could not have imagined a more perfect venue for our intimate family wedding than the Steam Whistle Biergarten. Every single detail was executed to perfection. We knew we were in good hands from the very first conversation with Josh and Robyn, through the entire planning process, and down to the day-of. The staff treated everyone like a Queen and King, and Josh and Robyn were incredibly responsive and easy to work with. A massive shout-out must go to Josh and The Food Dudes (their onsite caterer!), who designed an jaw-dropping, custom 3-course dinner for our guests, complete with absolutely delicious, crowd-pleasing appetizers for our cocktail hour. Our guests still rave about the food to this very day! The venue itself is absolutely stunning, with the perfect mix of upscale dining with the spontaneous, down to earth ‘kick back and drink a stein’-vibe you would expect from a German-inspired Beer Hall. The space for the live band worked perfectly, and it was an absolutely spectacular evening drinking delicious beer, eating incredible food and celebrating our nuptials underneath the city lights and CN tower. Many of our guests have claimed it was the best wedding they have ever attended, and although we are probably quite biased, we wholeheartedly agree. I cannot wait to host another event at the Steam Whistle Biergarten. Thank you to all the incredible staff for making our entire day so special. Pictures: Scarlet O'Neill...
Read moreVivian, oh Vivian! She's like a superhero in an apron. I called upon her during a culinary emergency, and boy, did she deliver! With lightning speed and a witty sense of humor, she swooped in, armed with a tray and a cape. She whisked away my empty plates with the grace of a ballerina and had me laughing so hard that I almost snorted my soup. Vivian is the comedic genius of the restaurant world, juggling orders like a pro and delivering punchlines with perfect timing. Dining at Steam Whistle without her would be like trying to eat a burger without the bun – it just wouldn't be the same!
But here's the best part: Vivian's talents go beyond the restaurant realm. When she's not dazzling customers with her wit, she transforms into an aquatic guru. I mean, who would have thought? She took it upon herself to teach my wife how to swim, and let me tell you, it was like watching a synchronized swimming routine directed by Quentin Tarantino. Vivian's patient guidance and infectious enthusiasm turned my wife into an Olympic-level swimmer in no time. Now, whenever we hit the beach, my wife is out there making waves, all thanks to Vivian's unexpected prowess as a swimming instructor.
So, if you're lucky enough to be served by Vivian at Steam Whistle, hold on tight and get ready for a hilarious, culinary adventure of epic proportions. And who knows, she might just surprise you with a hidden talent like teaching you how to fly......
