    (Translated by Google) For me it has been and is the BIRRA best not only in Albania but in the whole World! "Korça Beer" everything original .. (Original) Për mua ka qënë dhe është BIRRA më e mirë jo vetëm në Shqipëri por dhe në tër Botën.! "Birra Korça"  çdo gjë orgjinale ..

    Homemade meats prepared on-site, washed down with the delicious beer from the brewery! Lovely huge beer garden and food lovingly prepared, tender and juicy meets and fresh salad. Friendly service!

    Fantastic place with great food. The food is cheap and well prepared. A draft beer is only 70 LEK. Most definitely hope to return :-)

    My visit to the brewery in Korca was a delightful experience. The freshly tapped beer was not only tasty but also refreshing, and the food was a surprising culinary treat. Prices were reasonable, making it a budget-friendly option. However, the service left room for improvement, lacking in friendliness and attentiveness. Overall, it’s a great spot for affordable, delicious beer and food, though service could be better.

    Must visit in Korca! Perfect place with Albanian beer from local brewery and excellent grilled meats. Grilled Village sausages were the best! Mandatory to try! Dishes are served quickly and prices are very good.

    We enjoyed this place. The dark beer was only in bottle when we were there, but we loved it. I wish you could find it in more places than the brewery. The servers were nice, though there was a lot of confusion, and some bad organization, though, nothing to remove a star for. The menu was good, and there were a lot of options, and the prices are low (though they have gone up, so I posted an updated menu). The draft veer is very cheap at 80 for a big beer or 120 for a big bottle. It's definitely worth going for a drink and snack. The fries were good, but the portion wasn't that big. The atmosphere was nice (lots of cats around, though not bothering, which we love cats). Our kids were with us. The garden is big and nice and it is comfortable for families too.

    Quite the establishment. I had the honor to visit the enter premises where the almost 100 years old (as of the time of this writing) Birra Korca is produced and delivered from. They take care of each step of the process even putting water through osmosis to ensure the quality. Besides the noise, duh it's a factory, the tour is a must of anyone visiting Korca. You can enjoy the factory too via 360 degrees virtual tour if you cannot visit though.

    (Translated by Google) So I got to this legendary city ... Now I can safely say that I lived in Korcha)) I will report on this wonderful place a little later ... And first of all, of course, to the Korchino brewery! He surprised me with his intimacy ... It turned out to be quite small ... The tavern on the territory of the plant was praised in Google maps and I was rubbing my hands in anticipation, and my legs carried me through the city, along the flowering linden alleys ... There, where I planned taste all the varieties of barley ragweed ... And snacks for it ... And I was also waiting for an excursion to the plant ... As it turned out, I rolled my lip in vain)) .. There were only 2 varieties of beer here ... And the draft was only light and dark in bottles (((I already drank it ... I had to take light in 0.4-liter mugs. I repeated 3 times and each time to the mark of 0, 4 did not add 100 grams !!! I was upset ... The price, of course, is democratic, only 70 lek, but you need to know the measure! The appetizer here is inexpensive and different. People often take baked cheese, as thick as a piece of vulcanized rubber, but that's just But they flatly refused to conduct the excursion ... The service is weak, the menu is on a crumpled xero-piece of paper ... Somehow not serious for such a respected national brand ... .. Of the raisins, I noted a turtle living on an annual, urinals in the form of kegs and a wall creative in the form of monochrome frescoes ... Well, the quality of beer in spring water, I can’t reproach the brewers! The plant was assembled by Italians in 1928, exactly 10 years before their military invasion of Albania ... (Original) Вот я и добрался до этого легендарного города... Теперь я могу смело заявить что жил в Корче)) репортаж по этому замечательному месту сделаю чуть позже... А первым делом, конечно на корчинский пивзавод! Он меня удивил, своей камерностью... Оказался совсем небольшим... Кабак на территории завода расхваливали в гугл картах и я уже потирал в предвкушении руки, а ноги меня несли сквозь город, по цветущим липовым аллеям... Туда, где я планировал продегустировать все сорта ячменной амброзии... И закуски к ней... А ещё ждал экскурсии на завод... Как оказалось, губу я раскатал зря)) .. Сортов пива тут оказалось всего 2... Причём разливное только светлое, а тёмное в бутылках ((( его я уже пивал... Пришлось брать светлое в кружках по 0,4 литра. Повторил 3 раза и каждый раз до отметки в 0,4 не доливали грамм 100!!! Огорчился... Цена, конечно демократичная, всего 70 лек, но меру то надо знать! Закусь тут есть недорогой и разный. Народ чаще берет запечённый сыр, плотный как кусок вулканизированной резины, но это как раз по мне! А вот экскурсию проводить отказались наотрез ... Сервис слабенький, меню на мятой ксеро-бумажке... Как-то не серьёзно для столь уважаемого народного бренда... .. Из изюмин отметил черепашку, живущую на летнике, писсуары в виде кегов и настенный креатив в виде монохромных фресок... Ну и качество пива на родниковой воде, упрекнуть пивоваров не могу! Завод собран итальянцами в 1928 году, ровно за 10 лет до их военного вторжения в Албанию...

    Waiter extremely unfriendly. No welcoming and goodbye and waited for ages for the order. Cutlery just dropped on the table. Food edible but not good. Waiter coughed in the salad on the way to the table. Not recommended.

    A really nice visit. We went to the brewery and they explain us all the process and we saw all the facilities. The guide was a very friendly and kind man, and he made the tour really interesting. He gave us a delicius unfiltrated Korça beer. We strongly recommend this visit. Ahhh... and they have a restaurant netx to the brewery with grill and beer... Korça of course!

    Not very welcoming to Western tourists it seems... The beer is good and cheap, the food is average (do not order french fries) the service slow and apparently worse for tourists (no bread, no table cloth and so on, all the locals got it). First we also got a wrong ticket (2 beers instead of one). May be go somewhere else. The other beergardens down the street seem to be very popular.

    Excellent bar attached to the old brewery, originally made by Italians but nowadays fully Albanian. Fresh blonde Korça pilsner on tap for 70 lek (!) - incredibly cheap and delicious. Friendly staff (hard to find in Albania) who spoke good English with me. Lovely space, an easy walk from central Korçë.

    Good restaurant, food is OK, but there are lot of begging kids and staffing allow for that. what's not cool when you want to just chill your food and beer.

  • 1/5 Μαριάνα �. 1 year ago on Google
    We recently visited "Birra Korca". Overall, we are very disappointed and the star is just for the place. First of all, the service was slow and the staff wasn't very polite. Secondly, we couldn't order many things from the menu, as there wasn't availability. The food was horrible and specifically, the French fries seemed to have been cooked early in the morning. Also, the beer was not as expected. It's a waste of money and I wouldn't recommend going there.

  • 2/5 Olivia C. 2 years ago on Google
    We visited the beer garden. Stuff ignored us. The place was not busy and we were waiving. Lots of waiters just standing around. After 15min or 20min we could order. Food we wanted was not available. Beer was good and cheap. I would recommend only to stop by if it's on your way but no effort to get there.

  • 1/5 Robbie W. 2 years ago on Google
    Really strange experience. A cleaner attacked a street dog in front of us while we were eating.. The staff are incredibly slow and bad service. The beer is nice but the experience was terrible.

  • 5/5 Nima J. 1 year ago on Google
    Came here exactly 10 years after my last visit. I can’t believe it has been 10 years. They added bar and a new indoor area. But the kernacka was as delicious as I remember. Anytime I come here I order their beer, French fries and the keenacka. I hope it takes less than 10 years to come back.

  • 4/5 The English Hostel T. 1 year ago on Google
    Had a great time here, during our visit to Korça last year. We arrived too late to tour the brewery, but enjoyed the beer-garden, which is huge. It was an almost eastern European atmosphere -- live, old school music, whole families enjoying beer & food, singing, dancing, kids playing. The beer was tasty and ridiculously cheap. My only quibble was the service: the waiters are young and understaffed and tend to neglect foreigners, most likely because they lack confidence in interacting with them. Nothing that a bit of training -- and experience -- couldn't fix. Also, there were too many beggars about, plying us every few minutes for handouts. The waitstaff would chase them away, only for them to reappear. I wasn't too bothered by this but my companions were annoyed. Having said all that, though, the beer-garden was an enjoyable experience for me and I would definitely go back. You can't really go to Korça without visiting Birra Korça!

    (Translated by Google) The 4 stars are for the food and the beer. Grill ribs and beer were delicious! Unfortunately we have to say that the waiters are a bit weak. It almost looks as if they don't feel like it and prefer to play around with their cell phones. We were there in October and it was relatively empty. I guess that's the only reason we received our order so quickly. Don't want to sit there in the hustle and bustle and wait for my order. (Original) Die 4 Sterne sind für das Essen und das Bier. Grillrippchen und Bier waren sehr lecker ! Leider müssen wir sagen das die Kellner etwas mau sind. Sieht fast so aus als ob diese keine Lust haben und lieber mit ihren Handy rumspielen. Wir waren im Oktober da und es war verhältnismäßig leer. Nehme mal an, nur deshalb haben wir so schnell unsere Bestellung erhalten. Möchte da nicht im Hochbetrieb sitzen und auf meine Bestellung warten.
