My daughter recently visited me from interstate and later afternoon on a Sunday, we both wanted something to eat - having missed all the Cafes. Du Cane Brewery was a suggestion. So off we went. I’ve walked past before, and thought it looked interesting and chill. The sort of place good to while away a slow Sunday afternoon… well, it didn’t disappoint. We asked for a Pizza recommendation and Forest was suggested. So we chose that and a Sopressa endowed one. I definitely thought the Sopressa Pizza was going to be the tastier one. I was wrong. The Forest, was tasty, moist and different. It was very delicious. The Sopressa was fine, but it was The Forest that really stood out! Of course we’d ordered too much, so we took home almost the equivalent of a whole Pizza. Which tasted great the next day, too! Loved the chill, but pretty bustling atmosphere.

Unfortunately, we were told by the manager that outside food was not allowed and were asked to put it away.
Even after explaining the seriousness of the situation (anaphylaxis isn’t something we’re willing to gamble on during our holiday), he did not make any exceptions and instead insisted we pay a $20 fee. He stated that the brewery “caters for allergies,” but the reality is, no kitchen can guarantee zero cross-contamination, and we weren’t willing to take that risk with a child’s life.
It was disappointing, especially given that the rest of us had ordered $300 worth of food and drinks. We understand policies exist, but a little empathy and flexibility would have gone a long way. It left a bad taste after what could have been a...
