Brewing Brothers at the Imperial in Hastings

Brewing Brothers was, in a word, phenomenal. I had the Bangers and Spuds pizza and the MVP beer last night, and I have no notes - all the flavours worked perfectly together in the pizza (honestly it's one of the best pizzas I've ever had) and the beer was delightfully crisp and light. My sisters were also really happy with their food, and I can't wait to go back! Thanks for a lovely evening guys ♥️

Great selection of beers, ales and ciders and their pizzas are delicious 😋 They play great music too! Fun atmosphere.

Brewing Brothers’ pizzas are incredibly good! As a southern Italian who lived in Naples for a year (right in front of Da Michele pizzeria) and having tasted various Italian and Neapolitan pizzas throughout my life, I was shocked to find a pizza even better than the “traditional” one. The quality of the ingredients is excellent, the staff are nice and welcoming, and the atmosphere is perfect.

Love this place. Pizza is the best in Hastings and combined with Brewing Brothers beers, I can't fault.

Very cozy in the winter months and great hearty pizzas

A real gem - excellent beer, excellent friendly staff, really tasty pizza and good music. A cracking little pub. Cheers!!!

Great beers, even better pizza!

Had a great pizza and tried 4 of the beers available. Great selection of beers, and nice menu of pizzas. Friendly service. Would definitely recommend, and wished I was local to enjoy it more often!

Lovely pint, nice, friendly staff, nice to sit out when the weather allows!

Lovely freshly prepared and cooked pizza. Beer brewed on the premises really good. Great atmosphere.

Our Local, the best pub in town by a long mile. The BEST pizzas on planet earth unless proved otherwise. Everyone needs to visit this pub once in their life. If they don't they are missing out, but if not, more for us to enjoy. 15**********

If you are going to stay in this charming fish town of Sussex for just a week, and running out of ideas for what to have for a casual and hearty dinner--after you have already stuffed your belly with local fish'n chips, ice cream and doughnuts from the beach, visit this pub for their pizza. Always freshly made by one of the most passionate and dedicated team I have ever seen. And the taste is superb. Perhaps its only worthy opponent is some pizzeria actually in Napoli. Like many good pizza places, the product look unassuming and simple, but rich and nuanced in taste. Even the garlic oil dip is satisfying aromatic. The highlight, is the special, changed almost daily. The team seems never running out of ideas and the combinations offer surprise every time I return. But sure, try the "Bomb" and "Pancetta". The latter is surprisingly innovative, particularly with its refreshing zucchini. The location is a bit far away from the beach for sure, but should you visited the Western Hill, just go down to the Beacon, then you will find this warm, friendly place giving you a warm welcome--warm, because it got a proper pizza oven.

Great beer. Great pizza. Great T shirts. Everyone had a beard except me. Update: the beer isn't as great, they don't appear to have any of their own brewery beers. Fewer people have beards. Update to the update. Beer is back. Beards are back! 5 stars!

Delicious pizza, good atmosphere, lovely staff

We enjoyed the beers that we sampled. But not the fact that a half pint is £4 and a pint is £6. We like to try different beers and found the pricing unfair. The staff were great.

Love this place. A usual stop whenever we visit my family. My husband will rarely go anywhere else. We turned up today without much thought and ordered 17 pizzas. The chef as usual delivered delicious pizzas and the whole family were very pleased. I particularly loved the porky pig. You cannot go wrong in this place. Everything is just perfect. Good pizza, good beer, good vibes. Thanks to all staff at the imperial. See you soon.

Excellent beer, fantastic service and great atmosphere!

Great pub and staff beers and pizza's superb

Nice pub atmosphere. Super micro brewing onsite tasty I love the Gallagher super tasty and 6% abv

Fantastic little place, great food and drinks. Service is a little slow but well worth the wait.

Lovely service and incredible pizza that came out very quickly, brilliant staff, highly recommend

Great place. They make beer on site.

Great pizza, I was not expecting to have a very good pizza inside a pub, beer and service were great too.

Such a nice place and the food is great. The issue is that we have waited around 55 minutes for pizzas the last few times we have been. It just wouldn’t happen in other restaurants. Definitely worth going if you have no plans afterwards and are happy to have a long long wait

We had a jolly evening here-fantastic pizzas!!

My favourite pub in East Sussex, amazing pizza, beer, staff and atmosphere. I definitely recommend

Best pizza!!! Brilliant vibes. Even take away is good value. Just overall nice place to be! Love to go there was friends and family!

Very good beers and pizzas, lovely friendly relaxed atmosphere!

Great beer, great pizza, great staff, what more could you want from a boozer?

Best pizzas ever in the universe (Hastings). I love the taste, the music, the candle and the atmosphere. Nice and chill. Nye - 11 years old

Good beers and friendly staff and super atmosphere definitely worth a visit

The toilets are filthy- really dirty- no toilet roll holder- germs galore. Every table full of previous customers drinks and food. Shabby and dirty in bar

Love this place, craft beers, negroni and pizzas

Great pub, excellent selection of beers and fresh pizza - perfect combo!

Terrific beers and will return for a pizza, they look delicious

Lovely pizza fab beer. Big thumbs up

Tasty locally brewed ales and delicious pizzas freshly made and cooked on the premises. Friendly staff and chilled patrons. I get a pizza box for takeaway but a plate or board would be better when eating in.

Super pub w fantastic pizzas, service & great selection of beers!

Super friendly staff and quirky interior, chunky wooden tables and fun art. The pizza is sublime! Well worth a visit

Have come here many times and it remains exactly the same quality. This is good! A great stop on a night out. Home brewed beer and a few ciders. Does not do larger, has a pilsner. But I love pale ale so this is great ale lovers. And they do great pizzas. Even on Wednesdays pizzas were flying out every 5 minutes! Worth a visit any night of the week.

Great Pizzas and reasonable priced. Menu not too big, which suits me, as dislike being bombarded with too much choice, but varied enough to satisfy most tastes.

Haven't eaten here in a long time. Popped in for a quick pint on the way back from work. Can't remember the servers name but the young woman was very welcoming and really good at her job.

Great place great beer, best ever Pizza BUT shame been here many times went last week, not as busy as usual, not as vibrant an atmosphere, different people behind bar, Pizza and Beer still best ever, BUT £7.50 a pint !!!!! Really ????? Not keen to pay that when I can get beer as good for £5.0 a pint locally Just have to forget how good the pizzas are

Great beers and delicious pizza. The Napolitana was superb.

The best pizza in Hastings and the best cider (Brewing Brother's Silver Lining) on tap!

Great pizzas and really good beer loved it!!

Heard good things about this place as was in town and thought I’d give it a try. Wasn’t disappointed, food was all freshly made with a great selection of local drinks. Guys behind the counter were super friendly and welcoming. If you like your beer & pizzas then look no further.

Amazing atmosphere and very amazing beer I would recommend friends and family what every you fancy to drink no matter if you are a light weight.Ps I would recommend this to friends and family.

I love it here. Great selection of beer and most probably the best pizza in Hastings. It gets busy so be prepared for a wait. Nice friendly atmosphere and the music is pretty good too

Did not eat, but the pizza from the wood fired oven smelled delicious The smugglers cove porter beer was delicious, not too strong.

Great place to hide, eat (the best in Hastings) pizza and hang out. Like everything in this country, prices have risen, but it is still a wonderful place for many visits.

A few good pizza places in Hastings/St Leonards, but these pizzas are by far the best! Collection only but worth it. Don't think I could eat any other Hastings pizza after trying this one, very well, classically made.

What can I say other than by far one the best pizzas I have ever had. Home made pizza dough and home made sauce all with very fresh toppings. The home brewed drinks are also very good and the staff are always amazing. Am very happy to recommend this place.

Visited here for the first time tonight after going to the Courtyard bar several times in the past including tonight. Beer was good as were the staff but I do prefer the Courtyard overall. Sorry guys. Nothing wrong with the Imperial, I just prefer the other one.

I still can't find a way to review the Source park bar so I just have to do it here. Times are very hard for pubs and breweries like this right now but it looks like Brewing Brothers are doing ok. As usual the service and conversation was great and I was made to feel very welcome by both Ben (on Tuesday night) and Holly (on Wednesday night). Long may this bar, and other similar bars, prosper along with supplying great beer at sensible prices. I love you guys.

Have eaten here an embarrassing number of times in 2022. This has become our default venue. The pizzas are exceptional. All of the components are made with care and attention. To watch one of the brothers kneed the dough before submitting it to the flame is a thing of beauty - This is culinary art. The quality of the ingredients is high - cheeses, meats and veg are curated with care. This venue hits all the right notes and the vibe invites one to linger and soak in the moment. Wines and beer have been made with care and selected with attention, the house Red is delightful and reassures you that the brothers have thought about things. The prices are really reasonable and we'd gladly pay more for the pizza and vibe. A real Hastings asset, we love this place.

I couldn't find a way to post for the Brewing Brothers @ the Courtyard in Hastings so had to plump for the Imperial which I haven't visited but definitely will do in the future. This is a fantastic little place with 14 different beers, ciders, lagers on tap. I tried 'just' 4 of the beers and they were of outstanding quality. The lad (a lad compared to me anyway) was very welcoming and gave me a potted history of the area and the brewery. Sorry I didn't get your name but you know who you are and you can tell me next time as I will definitely be back next time I'm in the area. And finally, do what you have to do to get a separate listing on TripAdvisor, you deserve it!

What more do you need? Great beer (brewed on site) and great pizza with an array of interesting toppings. Spot on.

Pizza is amazing, great selection of beers, chilled atmosphere. Best pizza I've had in a while and very vegan friendly.

A really nice place to eat if you're looking for somewhere that's a bit off the beaten track, if you like, as I didn't realise this restaurant existed until I went there with some of my Uni friends on Monday evening after Jack in the Green had finished. I'm not sure how long the restaurant's been around for as I kind of wish I'd discovered it before when I was studying in Hastings. I can't recommend this restaurant enough if you're looking for a great homegrown Italian restaurant as the Pizza 🍕 I had was really nice. Although there was a bit of a wait for our food, the service of the waitress who was serving us more than made up for the wait that we had as she was really nice and friendly. Amazing food and great service definitely make this a place I'd come back and visit in the future.

Great microbrewery/pub a little out of the centre. 10 pumps and a pizza kiln. The beer and the pizzas are brilliant, if a little expensive but its still very busy, especially with takeaways. We will return.

You can get a pint anywhere, but not like the pints here. Unique brews, great flavours. Tried their IPAs all were good. They do stone baked pizza too. Awesome little place with lots of character.

Recommended by a friend who has worked in a pizza restaurant before and then in bars for years. It did not disappoint. Great range of drinks, friendly staff, lively and bustling atmosphere, and some of the best pizza I've tasted. Superb.

As a solo visitor felt safe and welcomed and enjoyed the atmosphere beers and pizza. Great place.

We were very impressed with the pizzas that we ordered for take away. They were made super quick so I didn't have a chance to try what looked like an excellent range of beers. I liked the vibe of the pub in my brief visit, it's was a shame we were only visiting Hastingd for a couple of days otherwise I'd be back for sure.

Great service and great beers! Even better selection now with the new brewery! Pizzas are fantastic!

A great time in here. Pint of Gallagher's was on the cards for me. Friend had a couple of tasters before settling on their pint. Found a lovely table in the window and enjoyed the ambiance of the place.

Excellent cider today. Had The Bomb pizza. Also excellent but blue cheese missing or was very mild. Will come again.

Excellent beers, atmosphere and superb pizza's.

Most beers available brewed on site. 2 I had were good well hopped ones. Homemade pizzas also.

Unusual and interesting pizzas with good quality ingredients. Great variety of thier own beer, highly recommended!

Excellent combo of unpretentious pub, fantastic pizza and excellent beer. The bomb was one of the best pizzas I think I’ve ever had, such a good combination of flavours, will definitely be back next time I’m in Hastings.

I am pretty sure I just had the best pizza and beer combo in my life! 🥰

I really liked this place, so friendly and nice music choices too!

We were in Hastings for the weekend and ate their pizzas twice. Once we collected and ate at home, once we ate at the pub. It is without doubt the best pizza I have had for a long while, if ever. It is the only...

Such a good pub. Great vibe, beer and the pizzas are nothing short of amazing. So lucky this is my local!

The beers I tried were great. Friendly staff and nice place. 10/10 would do again Great pizza as well

Dropped in for a quick drink whilst walking past, nice selection of craft beers, even a local sour for me! Food smelt amazing...next time!!

Great pizza, excellent craft beers!

Pizza and a pint in this dog friendly busy pub.

Great beer, and even better pizza. Will definitely be going back. Nice busy pub with outside seating. Very friendly.

I visit this place pretty much every time I come to Hastings. Excellent pizza, laid back, nice beer, decent price, friendly staff. Oh and always lots of doggies 😊

Best Pizza this side of Italy !!! Every time and washed down with a pint of Gallaghers Belisimo !!!! Great place

Delicious range of beers and the pizza is quality. Loved the neopolitana

Great pizza, great beer. What more could you want?!

Very cosy pub with the friendliest, loveliest staff and the best pizza you will ever taste. A joy. Good vegetarian and vegan options. You'd be mad not to go here!!

The imperial is just an amazing pub serving up home brewed craft beer and ciders, as well as the most delicious pizzas made and cooked on the premises in a clay pizza oven stashed behind the bar. If you are into real ales then you must try this place. I recommend the Marleys stout every time I have one, the first sip never fails an mmmmmmmmm moment

Very cosy pub with their own brewery! We also had pizza.

Amazing beer 🍺 and by my rekoning the best Pizza ever. Friendly warm atmosphere such a nice place to relax with friends.

A gem in Hastings. Great range of beer, many brewed by them. Lovely staff and atmosphere......and the pizzas? Just incredible! Unlike any I have tasted before!

Great pizzas and craft beers made on site.

Love this place.. amazing beers and tasty pizzas(especially the vegan 1s 😁💚) highly recommend this place,great vibes and great staff

This is a lively location. It specialises in interesting home produced beers. They also sell a very tasty dry Cider. It's an excellent place to have a drink with a fresh wood oven baked pizza. Toilets not especially accessible (particularly for mobility impaired).

The best brews and pizza. Super friendly and very reasonably priced. The perfect local.

Great craft beer and amazing pizza, reliably informed that this is the best beer in Hastings

Best pizza anywhere. Pizza oven behind the bar! The menu is wild!

Beer good pizza better well worth a visit

We were a party of four that went to this pub to try the pizzas and the brewed-on-the-premises beer. The pub, it must be said has a great atmosphere, and it is not just a youngsters pub but, is in effect, a very good local....

We were a party of four that went to this pub to try the pizzas and the brewed-on-the-premises beer. The pub, it must be said has a great atmosphere, and it is not just a youngsters pub but, is in effect, a very good local. It was a clean and well ventilated premises, and  has a 'distressed' style of decor which works and suits it very well. The seats are former keg barrels, and some of the tables are former butcher's blocks. . The toilet facitilities are a hike downstairs and are not for the infirm or lame! The pub offers a range of its own beers, including a dark beer, lagers and a cider to suit all tastes, however, I did find them quite expensive. The pizzas, which are delivered to your table in their own boxes and eaten without cutlery, were very good and reasonably priced too at an average of £11. We drank  red wine while eating and it was good, and reasonably priced. Overall, this is a good place to go for a non-fussy evening meal out, or for a drink with pals with pizzas on hand for anyone who gets the munchies after a couple of pints.

Excellent pizza, excellent beer, outdoor picnic tables and cozy booths indoors. Gets busy very quickly of an evening. Far be it from me to find a fault with the place!
