Dickson Taphouse — Restaurant in District of Canberra Central

Awesome Taphouse with plenty of seating, both indoor and outdoor available. A mixture of diner style booth seating, bar seating and leather lounges. 18 beer taps (6 standard and 12 rotating), all of them are independent breweries which is awesome for breweries around the country. A great range of spirits, and very nice looking food menu. Great location, definitely benefits from the corner block in the middle of Dickson.

Drinks pricing is pretty standard for craft beer venues - $10ish a schooner, but happy hours (2 hours) available Monday - Friday from 4pm - 6pm.

A tried and tested management team with staff from the Old Canberra Inn and Queenies behind the bar makes for a great experience.

Family friendly also, room for prams, firm seating for the older generation and minimal stairs (1 step into a part of the the dining area). Will definitely be my go to for the beer...

My embarrassed friend, asked the person she believed to be the owner, if she could speak to him, as he was watching the incident from a nearby table. He was on rec time, but denied he was the owner. Then I asked him if he was the owner. He said yes. I asked if I could speak to him. He said another time. We...

A bit disappointing I must say. We chose this spot for our work Christmas Party purely based on the amazing photos on the FB & their website. Unfortunately the Taphouse did not deliver. The food was very poorly executed and the quality of meat/chips and salad was low in comparison to what they charge. The only tasty thing were kimchi arancini balls. The salami platter was inedible, so thickly sliced that was unpleasant to eat. Steaks had little to no meat and fish serving was tiny. The promised garden salad was only shredded wombok cabbage. The staff on the other hand was great and extremely attentive. Thanks to their friendliness I am giving 3 stars, as they deserve it for...
