    Always sporting a great range of ales. Some brewed themselves and plenty from guest breweries. Staff are always friendly and helpful, and the beer garden is lovely when it's not tipping down. My go to pub whether by myself or with friends.

    After a mate had booked the worst Airbnb ever we went out to spend as little time there as possible. Taking a walk up Wind Street I feared my evening was not going to get any better. Luckily I had done my research and the evening was saved after we located Beer Riff. Set on the marina front was a welcoming and modern bar which did not disappoint. We were fortunate to catch the tail end of the Newbarns Brewery tap take over. The staff were friendly and offered great advice on what to go for from the vast selection. With it being close to last orders we decided to go for pints of Newbarns and Lost & Grounded as you know they nail it every time. To no suprise they did and the evening was saved. The only thing I regret was not spending more time here as the pizza menu looked banging as well. Highly recommend a trip here if you're in the area and are after good beer/food/times.

    Beers are superb - always cold, always something new and nice place to sit and socialise. Pizzas are frozen, overpriced and generally poor (most definitely not fresh - if they are there is a problem there). Otherwise, staff are welcoming and chatty except for one utter idiot who has no social skills, no personality and seems to not give a damn (young guy, bearded with piercings) - he's the resident numpty in an otherwise lovely brewery.

    Absolute gem of a brewery. Great location and beer. Always on our to do list when in Swansea

  • 5/5 Andrew V. 2 years ago on Google
    Lots of craft beers to choose from, pleasant bar, bit of a hidden gem. Been in Swansea 3 years and only just discovered it.

    Great little bar with a great choice of beers. First time visitor but will return next time I am in Swansea.

  • 5/5 Dutchie C. 1 year ago on Google
    Very welcoming place with a great selection of Ales. Very Dog Friendly and does good Pizzas. As a solo traveller it is a great choice for a pint or two.

  • 5/5 Huw J. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic taproom offering a wide range of excellent, well-priced ales. Sit in the window and watch the fishing boats come and go while enjoying a quality beer. Perfect!

  • 5/5 Julie S. 2 years ago on Google
    Stumbled upon this place on google maps, so glad I did it’s by far the best place to drink in Swansea. The location on the waterfront is a bonus. The beer selection is amazing, I could drink flamingo lingo all day. Very friendly knowledgeable bar staff. Not had chance to try the pizzas yet.

    The best of everything you want in local.. Amazing beer, awesome team and super dog friendly!! If I could award 10 stars it still couldn't justify how great Beerriff is 🀟

  • 5/5 Robert S. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic beers served perfectly in a nice little tap room πŸ‘

    I was out for a walk and came across this beauty of a brewery. I chose a hellish, 10/10. The pizza looks great too

  • 5/5 Mike P. 8 months ago on Google
    Beer is excellent. Lady behind the bar helped me pick one based on my taste; got it right first time. Pizza was decent, not world beating, but tasty. Atmosphere was good for a Monday. If I'm back in Swansea, I'll be back here.

  • 5/5 Dan B. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is awesome! Such a cool location. The beer riff brewery beers are really good, especially the Flamingo Lingo one. Also their pizzas are fantastic, best in Swansea!

  • 3/5 Sarah B. 8 months ago on Google
    Great beer and a cute taproom. Where they lose stars for me is that they don't offer free tasters and the employees don't seem to know much about the beer. All they've ever been able to tell me when I ask about the flavor of one is "It's an IPA" or "It's a stout". Between those two things, you might get stuck paying for something you don't like and every other brewery I've ever been to does offer more in that regard. They also don't accept cash. If you know which beer you want already, it's a fun place to visit and they have fun trivia nights as well.

    A lovely place with a great atmosphere. The pizza was delicious! I love the fact that your 4 legged friends can join you inside too. Great views over the harbour and the toilets were lovely and clean.

    Visited again on Saturday to try 'waves' (the new brew): lovely pint. Enjoyed as we did on our last visit: great friendly staff, nice vibe, yummy olives! See you again soon.

    Nice sitting area outside to consume your beer/cider... Overall satisfied ... Large selection of specialty beers and a few ciders they also do soft drinks . No Carling or Strongbow here :)
