What is blueW?
blueW is a community-based program that promotes access to municipal drinking water at local stores, restaurants and businesses, that allow residents and visitors to refill a reusable bottle with clean, safe, refreshing tap water, at no cost. Participating locations can be found on the blueW map below or simply look for the blueW sticker in the windows of participating businesses.
The City of Guelph is working with blueW to make it easy for people to enjoy Guelph’s safe and reliable drinking water and reduce waste generated from disposable water bottles.

Terms of use
blueW.org assumes no liability associated with the conditions or cleanliness of the participating businesses in our network.
blueW.org is a directory with 27,000+ restaurants, shops and public spaces across the globe where public access to tap water is available for the purposes of refilling a single-use drinking bottle, free of charge. We try our best to accurately identify the precise location of all participant listings, but due to limitations in our digital platform, geopositioning of locations may not be perfect.
Inclusion in the directory does not indicate an endorsement of a facility nor does exclusion indicate a lack of endorsement. The information presented on the blueW.org website is usually provided by the location owner/advertiser. We take no responsibility for inaccurate information. We rely on our participants/advertisers to provide us with updates to the information provided in the listings.
We have no control over your bottle refilling experience at any given refill location. Your experience will depend on the staff working at the location, the time of day, the cycles of the moon and many other things beyond our powers to influence. blueW.org staff cannot guarantee you will have a positive experience at any location listed on the website. We cannot be held liable if you experience an illness or other negative reactions as a consequence of visiting any refill location listed in the blueW.org website.
