Bridge Road Brewers Brunswick — Restaurant in Melbourne

My wife and I love breweries; she has a beer passport that has taken us to heaps of little breweries. This is easily one of the best little breweries we've been to.

Their beer selection will blow you away. As IPA drinkers we were absolutely spoilt for choice with 8 on tap. So, we ordered two tasting paddles, 4 in each, to cover them all. Every single one of them was delicious, interesting, and thoroughly enjoyable. We normally have no issue selecting our favourite beer from a paddle or two but at Bridge Road Brewers in Brunswick we found this impossible because they were all so good. The staff are lovely and super helpful if you'd like help selecting beers.

We enjoyed our beer with an absolutely delicious pizza. We suspect all their food is delicious but can't confirm. The venue is really lovely; it's enormous but separated into different areas that somehow make it still feel intimate and cosy. My wife loves how the classy white super clean toilets instantly made her feel sober, but, just between you and me, she was definitely still tipsy. Tanks in the background and clear view of the chefs in the kitchen are beautiful touches that really add to the ambience. Music was also great during our visit.

Love this place! We booked in advance for our Sunday lunch and were quickly taken to our table. The staff member explained the ordering system (QR or order at the bar) and also asked if we liked our table, offering up others if we did not. Both discussions were a nice touch and were appreciated. We ordered easily via QR code and grabbed the Chilli Prawn Pizza, the Roast Duck Pizza plus the Baby Octopus Tacos to share. The food arrived quickly and was delicious, with the Duck pizza being the crowd favourite! This place has a great atmosphere and we were never rushed, which meant we ended out staying a lot longer than we had expected. The entire space has loads of different areas to dine at (outdoors, booths, stools at a bar area) so you can go with a group or solo as they have so many options. With friendly staff and delicious food combined with such a comfortable set up - we will...

Booked a table last night. Turned up on time. Spoke to waitress at entry, she checked on the iPad and then took us to the bar to be seated. After talking to the man, she advised us the man would seat us shortly. We stood by the bar waiting to be seated for ages while the man delivered drinks to a table and then started serving people at the bar. We waited and waited….. we looked at all the empty tables and we wished we had not booked and could have sat down at one of the free tables. Our manners stopped us from doing that because we had booked a table. So we waited some more. Eventually we left and went and spent our money elsewhere - the terminus in north Fitzroy. They sat us down immediately even though they were busier and more packed. Disappointing I am not writing a great review about your food and beer but a negative one about the lack...
