Brewery Tap in Brentwood - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

GREAT REAL ALE Proper Traditional Pub with nice atmosphere and polite efficient bar lady. Also out back nice area to relax. Serving a choice of 3 Real Ales - On the day I visited Doom Bar Timothy Taylors Landlord and Ghost Ship plus lagers and the rest. Food wise nothing much though I guess there would be available crisps nuts etc. I went for the Doombar @ £2.95 pint which was excellent. Dogs are positively welcomed. Various Signs around for various types of nights dates. Great Pub Great Real Ales Great Service.

We visit here usually on our way to the high street and are always greeted with a warm welcome,the drink are really silly cheap for the area and also have a nice beer garden in rear

Visited here last night for work drinks as a colleague is a regular. Have to say what a nice little pub, reasonably priced with amazing and friendly staff. I would definitely recommend.

Cute little pub with loads of personality. The staff are great and nice and friendly family atmosphere . The drink are price mid ranged and not some other pubs in the local area . Especially love Maisie the pub dog.

Great little pub and now giving Wetherspoons a run for the money it 40p cheaper for a Stella and a large wine wish they would all price reasonably around here

Nice, friendly little pub with reasonable prices (probably the reason it was quite busy on a wet Thursday lunchtime). The beer was good & the service was prompt & courteous (assisted by one of the regulars with a service bell!) Cheers!

Reading the 3 reviews below its clear someone does not get the irony in there comment of moaning of running out of beer as the place is so popular. There is a new landlady and great new staff and one of which who literally just collects glasses and cleans ash trays so not sure what the idea things are not well run and cleared in a timely manner. Its not just the keen prices I can think of 9 to 10 reasons why this is so much a better pub now . The decor , revamp and improvement in terms of staff atmosphere new customers rather than the clicky group of old boys, there mates and generally a nice crowd is very welcome from the tired old Tap of before. Lots of girls and couples come to the pub now and the change in customers and popularity has seen the place without exaggerating 300% busier than before. Well down Craft and well done the new team

I gave 1 as there is no 0 I was in the Brewery Tap this evening at 7pm and it ran out of beer. Yes ran out of beer at 7pm on a Bank Holiday weekend ! The chap next to me at the bar asked the lady behind the bar to see the manager very politely as he thought this was pretty poor. The manager came down and immediately laid into the guy and accused him of being rude to the bar staff, I pointed out I had been there the whole time and he had never been rude to anyone, She said “there’s a pub up the road you can go to that’” . No apology nor any attempt to listen to the real facts. A craft pub without any beer and a rude manager! Didn’t stay,,

We used to come to this pub all the time when it was a family run local business, sadly they were ousted by the brewery and it's now just a generic bland renovated place. Garden looks nothing like the pictures anymore, glasses rarely collected so tables dirty (esp in the week) no card machine yet no signs telling you this, no atmosphere, bar staff untrained and unfriendly, limited stock, beer served in incorrect glasses and undrinkable beer being served from an unchanged barrel. I appreciate the new people are finding their feet, but the landlady spends most of her time in the garden, drinking and chatting as opposed to sorting the issues and just running the pub. Clientele has completely changed and a small local pub has lost its nice friendly atmosphere and has effectively become a wetherspoons with music. Shame as it was such a great place.

This is now a craft union pub now so like a weatherspoons with sport!! Garden is not what you see now flowers all gone.. Stick chairs and benches.

Bar staff rude and sex offenders present know this as they were groping. No surprise pubs closing down. Would urge people not to visit

This weekend I heard the regrettable news that this pub is shutting. Such a shame as have had many a great night in here. A proper pub. Great for watching the football, and had a blinding time in there this past Christmas when it was a party atmosphere. No pub in the town can lace its boots. Never a sign of trouble, The way a pub should be. The traditional pubs have died a slow death and all we have left are crap manufactured ones lacking in any real atmosphere or soul. Will enjoy 1 last final drink in there for the cup final before regrettably bidding farewell. So long

With a sports-driven theme hinted at through West Ham United memorabilia and other sporting achievements - especially like the framed Frankel photograph close to the entrance - the Brewery Tap was a good outing and we happily had a gin and tonic listening to the jukebox selections. Good crowd, good noise and a warm atmosphere.

Popped in for a couple of drinks on the way back to our hotel. Found it cosy, local pub, nice little beer garden out back and friendly staff. Handy location.

Dropped in for a bite to eat and a lunchtime meeting. Fish finger sandwich and chips is a perfect snack. The Taylors landlord is always on form too!

This has to be the friendliest pub I've ever been to! Its impossible to pop in for 'just the one' as there is always someone who wants to buy you a drink! The garden is lovely and a little sun trap. There's a TV outside also and several Tv's inside for the sport.

Just because I was born with 1 leg shorter than the other they refused to serve me because I walked down the hill funny not a friendly place 😠😠

I've seen some pictures on here with a menu but I am pretty sure they don't do food any more - if we're hungry we just get a bag of crisps. The garden is the reason we go here; such a nice place!! For us, sun out equals a beer in The Tap.

Have been visiting this pub on and off for many years. It has a lovely garden and serves a good range of beverages. The staff are friendly and everywhere is kept clean. There is some great football memorabilia on display, although not a great footy fan myself it adds something to the atmosphere. This is a really friendly pub (both staff and patrons) and well worth a visit .

I thought this bar was meant to be an under 21 pub? There's kids here. Lost a selling point there. Shame... I do love this pub so much as well

Stayed at the nearby Premier Inn. This an old style boozer, not like the gaudy sports bar next to the Premier Inn. Very comfortable and excellent real ale.

Great traditional pub. Friendly staff, good pub always worth a visit. Thanks to Iain and everyone involved

My son and I happened in here for a couple of ales on his recommendation. They were well kept and we had a good blether.

We went here for a quick drink before our friends 30th birthday night out. The staff were so friendly, the beer garden was lovely (and the weather helped with that) and it was overall a lovely afternoon on our first trip to Essex. Thank you.

Lovely traditional pub with beautifully kept gardens and happy friendly helpful staff. Little gem in the heart of Brentwood

This pub is extremely local to us, the garden is outstanding and very well looked after, good pub for locals , decent wine ok beer, some of the staff could be more friendly but all in all recommend

He estado caminando pasado este lugar para un año desde su traslado a Brentwood y finalmente apareció con algunos amigos en el sábado. Estaba ocupado con un gran ambiente, canciones impresionantes y prepara una pinta de Guinness. Sin duda regresaremos - no puedo creer que...

A very small traditional pub with a lovely beer garden out the back. The staff are friendly as are the customers - there's a very convivial atmosphere. Due to its size we don't spend much time inside, but in summer - or when the weather is clement enough - the beer garden is a really lovely place to while away a few hours.

I am a local and I can honestly say this is one lovely little pub. My wife and I have been here numerous times. Staff are great as are the other patrons. Love the garden too. I've spent many an hour here and always enjoyed.

Have popped in here for a beer in many occasions whilst working around Essex. It's a great pub, serving great beer. Lots of West Ham paraphernalia which might not be to everybody's taste but I loved it. Brilliant beer garden too. If, for some reason, you find yourself on the TOWIE tour one Saturday soon I suggest you jump off the coach and spend your time enjoying the beer in here!

Not many little English pubs left in brentwood. This is a good one so pay it a visit. A good choice of draught beers and a friendly bar tender.

My boyfriend lives nearby, and this has become our local when I visit. It's an unassuming pub, but the staff are always very friendly, the drinks are reasonably priced and they have a lovely beer garden, furnished nicely with heaters. The inside often has a loud TV so not so much my cup of tea, but it's a really friendly place. Especially in the summer, worth a visit for the garden.

Great little pub, good service by friendly staff. Beautiful cosy little garden in the summer. Lovely atmosphere. Have been several times and will be visiting several times more.

If your looking for a traditional pub, look no further. Friendly service, great atmosphere, beer garden with log burner, sensibly priced rows and rows of my favourite bottled beer. Heaven!

Visited this pub on 27/1/14. Excellent Timothy Taylor's and Otter beers. Good host. Cash back facility. Clean and tidy. When I return to Brentwood I will definitely return

I've lived in Brentwood for more than 12 years, but only ended up going to this pub 2 yrs back (first time), loved it and returned quite a few times. Small and nice place, good friendly staff, good options for beers. Nice beer garden and we had hours of fun there. We try to touch this pub on our pub crawls ;-)

Popped in on our way to a meal. A nice enough corner local that seemed to be an after work meeting spot. A friendly atmosphere with a few characters. Beer was ok.

This is my local when I'm working in Brentwood, and although I dont frequent the 'BT' as often as I would like, it's an enjoyable place to spend a lunchtime and try out a few real ales. I've only been here during a lunch hour and on some days it can be busy, particularly in the enclosed 'garden' out the back, which is a nice place to sit and chat in the sunshine. No complaints with the food either, albeit a fairly limited menu, but then again you would expect that from a small 'town' pub. The service is pretty good with friendly staff and quick turnaround of food (handy if you're on a lunch break!). I recently had chunky chicken curry and chips which hit the spot! Would probably say it's not somewhere I'd go for a long period of time (due to it's size), but worth a trip for a spot of lunch and a couple of pints.

Its not the biggest pub in the world but it does serve drinks at reasonable prices, has a warm & friendly atmosphere and in teh summer a good, enclosed beer garden to sup on your drinks while sitting in the sun :0)

This is a small friendly pub close to the station. It has a good range of beers and a comprehensive range of lunchtime meals.

This public house only serves over 21,s The choice of real ales is excellent and it has a small but pleasant garden to the rear.

The brewery Tap is our 'local' but as we have a 2 year old we dont get out much. Lovely people, good selection of drinks and beautiful little garden. It's also really clean, toilets are spotless - it's important!

I was given a good welcome, and had a good selection of real ale. Obviously the landlord was a West Ham United fan. A lot of Booby Moore signed pics on the wall. Nice place.

No doubt the best pub in Brentwood. Keeps things simple - great beer, no cooked food, nice beer garden and friendly service. Handy location between town and the station.

If you are a West Ham fan then this is your Pub. The walls are covered with photos and mentos of past glories and Hammers greats. Bobby Moore and Pele, famous teams from the 80's and some of the more interesting players from those years. Bobby Moore with the '66 Wold Cup.... Ahh - great memories!It also serves excellent beer and really tasty food!

This Public House is a tad small and cosy, but with lovely friendly staff who took the time to answer our questions and give us a brief history of the pub :D We learnt that the actual pub part is what used to be the 'Tap Room' of the old brewery, we were even showed the pipe where the beer was piped through from the brewery to the tap room! The (now) shops and residential properties next door are actually what was the Brewery! There are photos on the wall of the building in days gone by. The Beer was of good quality, these people obviously know how to maintain beer pipes and pumps very well!The Garden is beautiful with creeping plants and quality garden furniture to sit on.The food is nice and good value!I am going here tonight :) on one of the hottest days of 2011 to enjoy the beer garden :)

great pub and they give you free chip sarnies at halftime when england play! top pub!!!

Tiny pub but lovely in the summer when you can sit in the beer garden
