La Brasserie Nonsuch Brewing Co.
125 Pacific AveStylish little brewery in the Exchange District.
"For starters, the brewery’s new home in St. Boniface makes it Winnipeg’s first taproom east of the river. Along with its unique location, the space itself is unlike any taproom the city has seen. Plants hang from the ceiling and fill every corner of the room, even covering a feature wall in tropical printed wallpaper. Cozy nooks (perfect for social distancing) are filled with funky, curated furniture including a set of swinging wicker egg chairs you’ll definitely want to sink into. Eight beers are on tap, which include everyone’s favourite Juicii IPA "

A very unique little place like no other that serves up fresh homemade food, and has a great selection of yerba mate. The decor and furnishings are all lovely handmade rustic woodwork and feels like the set of The Hobbit. Service can range from great to interesting.

The Forks is Winnipeg's favourite and most famous attraction. It's a public space that has something for everyone, a market place with many shops, restaurants and pubs. It's a National Historic Site and has been a meeting place for over 6,000 years; early Aboriginal peoples traded at The Forks, followed by European fur traders, Métis buffalo hunters, Scottish settlers, riverboat workers, railway pioneers and tens of thousands of immigrants. Today it hosts many events in the heart of city and is only a 15 minute walk over the Esplanade Riel bridge. Personal favourites here include the riverwalk, The Common, pizza at Red Ember, coffee at Fools and Horses.
