My BeerBuzz - Goose Island Announces Closure Of Goose Island Brewhouse Restaurant Toronto 12/31 - Toronto, Canada
mybeerbuzz.comHere’s the latest I can confirm about Goose Island Brewhouse in Toronto:
-
Reports in late 2025 indicated Goose Island announced the closure of the Goose Island Brewhouse restaurant in Toronto on December 31, 2025, though the brewery portion of the operation would continue to supply Goose Island beer in Canada. This closure was noted by industry outlets and summarized as a restaurant closure after more than eight years of operation [source coverage includes My BeerBuzz and related industry notes] .
-
The original Goose Island Brewhouse in Toronto opened in 2017 as a collaboration between Goose Island and Bier Markt Esplanade, positioning Toronto as Canada’s first Goose Island Brewhouse with on-site brewing, a retail growler shop, and a rotating tap list alongside a food menu [sources from 2017 announcements and Toronto press coverage] .
-
There has been ongoing discussion in Toronto beer and restaurant circles about the Brewhouse since its opening, including early coverage of its opening, its Esplanade location, and the Brewhouse’s role within Goose Island’s Canadian presence. Several articles from Toronto Life, Daily Hive, BlogTO, and other outlets provide background on the opening and concept .
What this means for you:
- If you’re looking for a current on-site Goose Island Brewhouse in Toronto as of 2026, the best-known status in late 2025 was a closure of the Brewhouse restaurant portion at the Esplanade location, while Goose Island beer production continues in Canada. If you’re seeking updated hours or any new concepts under the Goose Island brand in Toronto, I’d recommend checking the official Goose Island Toronto social channels or the Bier Markt Esplanade page for any subsequent announcements .
Would you like me to pull the most recent official statements or social posts from Goose Island Toronto and Bier Markt Esplanade to confirm any new developments since 2025? I can also summarize the timeline from opening to closure with key dates if that would help.
