Steelbound Brewery & Distillery is opening a location in Niagara Falls next year after signing a deal with the Sheraton Niagara Falls (300 Third Street) in the former TGI Friday’s restaurant.
Plans call for the location to brew and distill Steelbound products on-site, including craft beer, vodka, gin, and bourbon. It will also sell spirits by the bottle.
The food menu will focus on wings and handheld items.
The Steelbound project is expected to cost approximately $700,000, according to Buffalo Business First, which includes the addition of brewery and distillery equipment, as well as new patio furniture and soft seating. The site will offer seating for about 220, including the inside space and an existing patio on Old Falls Street that will be expanded.
Work is scheduled to begin in the fall, with an anticipated opening in spring 2026.
Steelbound also has locations in Ellicottville, Springville, Dunkirk, Williamsville, and Las Vegas.
