    Went to the brewery for a tasting and some food around lunch time and wasn't dissapointed. Good service and affordable as well. We had some sushi, poppers and cheesy fries. Nice outside (under cover) and inside area so you can sit wherever depending on the weather. I always try to pop around when in Hermanus, so they will see me again.

    Hi - wanted to let you know we had the absolute worst meal at this restaurant last night. To start : my daughter’s chicken nuggets were raw , my moms mussels were dry / dehydrated and had no sauce , the 2 mains of calamari that were served and that cost R125 each were the size of a small starter , my wife’s ribs were ice cold on being served . We addressed the raw chicken and calamari with the manageress who said the calamari was a main meal size ( main meal size must be for Ants 🐜) the raw chicken was recooked & and no one assisted with the other complaints. We ended up paying R1950 and it felt like we were pick pocketed after leaving this establishment as we had paid for a few drinks and utter garbage (food) . Not impressed. If you are thirsty then this may be the spot for a cold one , but stay clear of the food!

    Overall the experience was incredible! The venue is gorgeous and love the atmosphere, the staff were warm and welcoming. We started with the tasting experience, my husband thoroughly enjoyed the beers. We then had some food and yes the food is on the pricier side but my goodness it was incredible. My husband had the brisket burger which he said was the best burger he’s had and I had a pizza. I mean it was 40cm so how can you even top that but it was tasty. Our waiter was friendly too, definitely will come back again.

    We heard and came here especially for their pulled brisket burger 😋😋😋 It was all and more, absolutely delicious and filling. A huge complement to the owner/chef for this creation in food. Really loved it. All their food looks delectable and delicious. A definite worthwhile place to visit for a meal and a drink. Hope to come back soon.

    Great food, even better service. We had the brewery burger and the calamares basket. The gin tastin is combined with ciders and very sweet, just like most of the food and beverages in Afrika.

    Stopped over for a quick meal. The loaded basket was absolutely delicious! They were very busy so service was not the best, but understandable. So much to offer, would love to visit again when in Hermanus.

    What a beautiful spot. Children's play area, beautiful rustic setting, individual stalls for private vendors. Good service and food really good. Enjoy a beer tasting.

    We had a great time at this venue. The day we visited it was rainy and cold. We had our doggos so had to sit outside which made the experience a bit cold 😅 But the food was excellent and service was good. Friendly staff.

    Top notch place to stop to satisfy a hunger. The drinks alongside the dishes are delicious and a real treat. Service is friendly and the atmosphere is wonderful.

  • 4/5 John van der L. 6 months ago on Google
    Beer is superb and food is a vast improvement on our previous experience. Will certainly make it our regular. Atmosphere a little for a week night but load shedding doesn't help either. Perfect spot for kids to play

  • 5/5 Antoine D. 4 months ago on Google
    Just the perfect place for a snack, meal or fun time. Staff is just awesome, food, from steaks to sushi are perfect… not one complaint my side. Ho, and the beers are amazing to!

  • 4/5 Gordon B. 8 months ago on Google
    Beer was great. Venue fantastic and our service was excellent. Unfortunately the food this time wasn't great. We ordered 3 portions of chicken wings (as it's our go to with beer) and these were the worst we have ever had. We infact didn't eat them and took doggy bags and gave them away . Undercooked and horrendous Smokey flavoured sauce. Will be back but not for those :)

  • 5/5 Diane J. 11 months ago on Google
    Truly worth the drive from Cape Town to Hermanus just for brunch. Would do it again, soon.

  • 5/5 Pierre M. 8 months ago on Google
    Went there Saturday morning to watch the Springboks play the All Blacks. The place was packed and had a fantastic atmosphere. A set breakfast of wors, bacon and two fried eggs went down well. Sadly the Boks lost but the whole vibe made it worthwhile.

  • 4/5 Lisha L. 10 months ago on Google
    The food was really good, the vibe was nice for an impromptu lunch. Great portion sizes for a very reasonable price. Would definitely recommend. Four stars instead of five because unfortunately our waiter was not the greatest. He was really unfriendly, threw the menu's and bill onto the table. His whole attitude made us feel like we did something wrong but we had just sat down. Maybe he just had a bad day but unfortunately it did impact our time there.

    The beers 🍻 are the best a man can get. I can drin on the IPA & Stout all day & everyday. Friendly and fast service plus dog friendly.

  • 4/5 Johan V. 1 year ago on Google
    Very friendly staff with great play area for kids. Unfortunately a kid was bitten by a dog while there which dampened the mood. Food was delicious with healthy portions and a great variety. Great selection of beer and delicious gin.

    Been driving past the Brewery for a while now and we visited a couple of days ago I will be visiting again soon and I'm sorry I kept driving past and never stopping, great food,beer and staff very friendly was just the perfect place too visit..

  • 4/5 Fabrizio D. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent food, selection of drinks and attention. Recommended but remember to book in advance, the place gets very busy.

  • 5/5 SP van Z. 2 years ago on Google
    The Brewery is an awesome restaurant with a great atmosphere. I had the Hermanus Lager and Luigi pizza. Both were amazing. They also have a large outdoor playing area which was still closed when we were there, but it seems like a lot of fun although it is probably more suited to kids older than at least 7 years old.

    We ordered sushi and the homebrewed beer. It was the best sushi we ever ate. The ingredients were all fresh. The beer was tasty. The service and the place itself was dandy.

  • 5/5 Jade L. 1 year ago on Google
    Their sushi is very well made and the new vegan and vegetarian dishes that were added to the menu are also very good a lot more options now. There is a good selection of wines and their ciders are very nice. All the staff are super friendly and it is a dog and children friendly place which is also nice.
