Creekside Pub and Brewery



Written by Leann Pettit
We came across Creekside Pub and Brewery in Regina driving back into town from the east on the Trans-Canada Highway. From the road, it looked like a local gem and the online menu definitely grabbed our attention with the variety of entrees and house made items.

We were surprised that there is no hostess and diners seat themselves. On a nice night (and especially after a Riders game), it can be very difficult to find a table. Definitely check the second floor and around the bar. We got very (very, very) lucky and found a table on the deck outside and were able to enjoy a lovely early fall evening in Regina.

We ordered the bison burger, a bison patty topped with cheddar cheese and served with fries (or soup, tossed salad, caesar salad, or "lagers" - more on these later). The fries were addicting and the burger was good (nothing to write home about, really).

We also ordered the Pig and Fowl, a chicken breast and a pig "wing" - a marinated pork tenderloin. Both were delicious, the chicken was moist and the pig "wing" was good, shaped like a chicken wing.

We also ordered a side of the house made "lagers" - which are potatoes soaked in beer and then fried. They are the texture and crispiness of potato chips, with a nice hoppy finish, a perfect accompaniment to your meal, or order them as an appetizer to share while hanging out and drinking a few beers.
