This place does not disappoint. I've been here twice within a year, and the service, food, and atmosphere have not changed. Lovely service from the waitress that serviced us and the food quality was amazing. Definitely a go-to if you want quick, delicious, comfort food. Will keep going back.
Been here twice in the last few weeks. First time was for dinner and had their burgers - I'm really opinionated about burgers, and this was probably the best one I've had in Palmy. Second visit was for their first brunch pop up, and both the Chicken & Waffles and Breakfast Poutine were amazing.
Finally visited this spot I've been hearing such great things about and it did not disappoint.
The photos speak for itself but we ordered, Fried Cauliflower - incredibly tasty, couldnt replicate this at home if i tried! The burgers are very flavourful- smashed patty's with a tonne of pickles (at my request) and a very generous helping of american sliced cheese! Poutine is obviously a staple here, and you're spoilt for choice from Newfie to bacon to original.
Cocktails were a huge highlight- the Canadian is an excellent sweet option and the Old Fashioned is incredible- the perfect amount of sweet (maple) and bitter(s) - I had x4!
Whether you're a local or you're driving through, this is a must stop destination!
Absolutely no complaints about this restaurant or its food truck. The food is so delicious, the service is always exceptional and the decorations and atmosphere are so good. Definitely a hidden gem but I tell everyone about it because I just love the food
If you’re looking for your North American fix, this is the place to go! From delicious wings and burgers to poutine and maple-flavoured everything, this place has it!
Really good price for solid food. It’s a bit heavy but it’s North American food!! What were you expecting!?? Come and getcha some and recommend it to a friend!

(Highly recommend the wings, fried cauliflower, and mac n cheese!)
First impressions: Cocktails were well made and the service was great - our waitress was so lovely! Music was a bit loud, making it difficult to converse at times but we didn’t bring this to the staff’s attention. The menu is compact which suits me well, as too many options can make it hard to decide on what to order. Love that sour beer was on the menu too (:
I found the pricing to be reasonable but was somewhat disappointed with the wings (a little dry and not enough buffalo sauce)
I would def come back here! Thank you Beaver & Bear
Absolutely the best poutine I've ever had, and I've had quite a bit in Canada before. Amazing flavor! Great beer selection as well.
If you're looking for a fantastic spot for comfort food, look no further than Beaver and Bear! I recently had the pleasure of trying out their menu, and I have to say, it was a great experience. The poutine was absolutely fantastic, and the cheese dip was very delicious - definitely something to share with friends or family. And the chicken burger? It was amazing! Juicy, satisfying, and definitely worth trying.
The atmosphere at Beaver and Bear is cozy and comfortable, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy some good food. If you're a fan of poutine, cheese dip, and chicken burgers, then this restaurant is definitely worth a visit. Overall, I would highly recommend Beaver and Bear - it's a must-try for anyone looking for delicious comfort food in a welcoming atmosphere. Don't hesitate to check it out!
Great beer selection, starters were amazing, the poutine is out the gate good!!!!!!
Burgers were a touch on the small side for the price, but definatly made up for it in flavour.
Was a touch cold, but hey its winter.
Staff are really good, friendly and chatty, and took some good banter!!!
Nowhere else in palmy to get a good feed like this, full of authentic flavour!
Kudos team, keep it up!
Amazing restaurant! Very simple, but incredibly tasty meals (burgers, chicken wings, poutine- chips with gravy and cheese, with optional ad-ons).
The burger patties are often bigger than the bun!
Great for ordering individually or sharing as a group.
The cocktails are really good too and I love the weekly specials (sometimes it's a new cocktail, sometimes a meal).
Absolutely worth a try! We just keep coming back for more!
