I celebrated a significant birthday here on Saturday 1st and I cannot recommend The Brewery highly enough. They were very communicative and accommodating throughout the whole process. I hosted fifty people for food and drinks in The Shack. It was a perfect venue, private bar and toilet facilities in a very bright and playful area, it also has a retractable roof, lucky for us it was a gorgeous evening and we had an open roof which only added to the celebratory atmosphere. The food was fantastic, everybody commented on how great it was, we had gone for a buffet with lasagne and a veggie curry, rice, salad and chips.
The staff were all sound but I’d like to especially thank Carol who arranged everything and looked after us all so well! I believe the whole venue and pub was super busy that night but you’d never guess it, we were given ample time to enjoy a toast, speeches and a cake without any stress. Thanks Carol, it was a roaring success! 🤩

AtmosphereBusy at peak timesFriendly staff
A good-feeling place. The servers and who I believe was the manager were jovial and pleasant. The food was good as were the prices. We stopped to get a quick bite midday.
There was just us and some people from our corner of the world in there! It was quite funny being 8 hours plane away from home, finding people who live 1 hr away from you in the same town less traveled by most tourists. Sept 12, 2024
I was at
Restaurant with my child, and we had a very good experience. My child has allergies to certain foods, and the staff were very attentive and understanding.
A suitable meal was specially prepared separately, and they really made an effort to ensure everything was safe. What I especially appreciated was that they later checked in to ask if everything was okay and whether my child was satisfied.
Very friendly service, great atmosphere, and a truly respectful attitude toward guests. Thank you very much
