The Canadian Brewhouse is a Canadian chain of sports bars and restaurants founded in 2002 in Edmonton, Alberta. The brand operates more than 40 locations across multiple provinces, including Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, British Columbia, and Ontario.
History
The first Canadian Brewhouse was opened by entrepreneur **Cary Horning** in 2002 in Edmonton, Alberta. Over the subsequent years, the company expanded its presence throughout Western Canada, opening new locations in cities such as Calgary, Regina, Saskatoon, and Winnipeg.
In 2019, The Canadian Brewhouse announced plans to expand into Ontario. In January 2025, it opened a location in **Mississauga, Ontario**, marking further expansion into the Greater Toronto Area. [3]
Operations
The Canadian Brewhouse locations generally function as full-service restaurants and sports bars. Many sites offer multiple large televisions, sports-themed décor, and patio or rooftop seating (where climate permits). The menu includes pub-style fare such as burgers, wings, poutine, and a selection of domestic and craft beers.
Corporate Structure & Sister Brands
The Canadian Brewhouse is privately owned and headquartered in Edmonton. In 2022, the organization expanded its brand portfolio by launching **The Canadian Icehouse** and **The Banquet Bar** in Edmonton’s ICE District. [4] [5] The Icehouse serves as a flagship venue featuring amenities such as a rooftop patio, a “sub-zero” ice room, and other entertainment features. [6]
In earlier planning, the ICE District development announced that The Icehouse and The Banquet would occupy the “Block BG” site adjacent to Rogers Place, including a large rooftop patio and views over ICE District Plaza. [7]
Community Involvement
The Canadian Brewhouse has engaged in local partnerships and charitable initiatives. Some locations host fundraisers, pub nights, and silent auctions to support community causes (though specific examples vary by venue).
Recognition
The Canadian Brewhouse was included in *Forbes Canada*’s “Canada’s Best Employers 2025” list, under the Restaurants & Hospitality category. [8]
The chain’s expansion and sister-brand ventures have been covered by media outlets, including *Global News* and local newspapers.
