A great narrow little pad with a really comfortable ambience. Drawings on the walls, different chairs everywhere, and friendly staff and patrons. The sign is just a picture of a brains — very medieval style. The Brain is my go-to spot on James North, and maybe all of Hamilton.

The ambience is very relaxed. The music is very mellow. It’s packed. Reminds me of Portland Oregon. Board games are abundant as well as the drink variety. Would love to come here again

Best bar in the city. Love those big beers! The owner has an incredible hand for cocktails. Let it be known. Good meat pies and you can smoke and drink at the same time. Great beer selection although Old Credit is pretty much my go-to.

I’d heard of The Brain numerous times from friends and enemies alike, but not until moving down closer to the James North area of Hamilton, did I actually get out to see what the fuzzle was all about. The beer selection is AWESOME. There were a couple of beers that I had not seen before, as well as a lot of my microbrew favourites. The music has been pretty good too. Jeremy Greenspan owns/runs this place, along with Ken Innouye. Drop in. Very relaxed place, and perfect for some pre-drinks before heading down to This Ain’t Hollywood
