Gipsy Hill Brewing Company - Taproom in Lambeth

Friendly people, great beers and relaxed atmosphere.

Can't fault the place or the beer, touch expensive but it is what it is. My biggest issue was with the customers, posh idiots who can't control their children. About 40 kids running riot banging into customers, screeching,hiding under my table all while their parents are getting sloshed paying them no attention. This is the 3rd time I've been here and the 3rd time it's been like this, so will probably be my last. I go out to relax, not babysit other people children.

Great beer and often some street food outside, staff are friendly and efficient. BUT, if you're expecting a relaxing time in an adult-led environment like a brewery, you'll be in for a shock. Posh obnoxious parents bring their kids along, and drink away as they run around and cause chaos. We don't have kids so we can't block all that noise out the way parents can, and had to leave after just one drink because it was driving us nuts! It just makes no sense to me for somewhere centred around beer to moonlight as a crèche. You can't serve alcohol to U18s, so why let them in to begin with? In many countries it's illegal to be drunk in charge of children. They need to ban kids all day, there's just no reason for them to be in a brewery.

Visited September 2024. Working brewery and taproom with a huge beer menu with some non-beer options. Beer flights ie. 3x 1/3 pints available. Various seasonal themes, e.g. Oktoberfest “festbier” on offer. Good variety of bar snacks too but no hot food unless you order from Yard Sale Pizza, who do delivery via app (there are QR Code menus). There’s also a significant Takeaway beer menu (all cans). In terms of snacks, I had the Spudos self-seasoning crisps (interesting flavours like doner kebab and chip shop curry sauce) and the Serious Pig snackalami. In terms of the vibe, music was Early 90s /old school hip hop. Outdoor and indoor seating.

Good range of brews, quirky place to drink

Great place to visit if you like home brewed beers. Also a good place to hold events. Has more than one room so plenty places to have a wander round, watch sports on t v.

Really lovely place, delicious fresh beer, food trucks with good food outside (although I'm not sure if these are here all the time).

Perfect spot to spend an afternoon on the sun.

Great beer. You can also get yard sale pizza delivered there with no delivery charge and that's a winning combo if ever I saw one.

One of the best community craft beer taprooms in London.

Great beers and nice vibes. Available for private hire events

Good beers, nice service and really nice location! It absolutely worth a visit 😎!

Great tap room, nice inside and outside space. Can order Yard Sale Pizza to the tap room too.

Fantastic spot. great brewery tour from David!

Attended this venue for The Salad Day Market and The Big Market that take place on a monthly basis. Great if you are looking for arts and handy crafts.

You know what’s a peng drink? What? The gipsy hill ipa

Very good service. Serious and professional team

Beer is always fresh and interesting, with a number of options. They always have a cider option as well. Atmosphere is great on a sunny day in the outdoor section. You can order external food in, which is good.

Good beer, rude staff who can’t wait to close up early without warning.

Very poor experience with their online shop. Beer order never delivered. I emailed (three times) to find out why, no reply. Eventually spoke to someone over the phone who apologised and said they would resend... They did not. Would not use again.

I didn't know there was a quiz on Wednesday!!! Will definitely come back to participate, but it's not on again until after the euros footballs

Great place to have excellent craft beers. I went when a market was set up outside and I enjoyed myself in the stall. Not hot food available in the brewery, just crisps and confectionery.

Brilliant local brewery. Great location. Lovely beer.

An enjoyable place, with a few good choices

This brewery taproom was well geared up to offering a drink and had indoor and outdoor seating, perfect for being outside on a sunny afternoon. The cider on offer was very good and there were pop up vendors serving decent food.

Disappointing - unfriendly service, no atmosphere, no garden

Seems to be an issue with the license at the moment. The courtyard used to be open every day all year round but seems to only be open for special events this summer. A huge shame as the courtyard was the biggest draw for the Taproom. Service still great, beers excellent, but a real shame there's no regular outdoor space anymore. Definitely need to plan ahead before going there these days to check

Very interesting and enjoyable event. Would definitely visit again. Recommend if you are looking for vintage and authentic movie flyers to decorate your home.

Great tap room. You can get pizza delivered as well as drink 🍻 nice beer

Great atmosphere, wonderful beer. Had a lovely quiet Sunday here.

Wonderful place with amazing beer selection. Service was always helpful, fast and friendly. It's dog friendly, inside and outside. I really recommend.

Came on Saturday afternoon as a couple, great beer and nice outside area. Taproom was cool but very full of kids, felt a bit like a crèche. So great for families I guess! Two pints and a pack of pork scratchings was £17 which felt like quite a bit for a brewery and mostly the reasoning behind the lower score

Great taproom just off the main road. Lots of shared benches, great atmosphere and a really good range of beers. The lady behind the bar let me try some samples and talked me though some of the beers. I highly recommend this place for a good catch up with friends in nice surroundings with good beer. Cheers.

Really lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and great tasting beer. I also tried the non-alcoholic option and was great.

Quite a long bike trip from Ldn but it’s a nice place to chill for an hour or two. Great beer and nice selection of food. I also visited the pop up market and bought few things.

So I’m new to south London ! But so glad I discovered this gem. A fab place to meet your friends and enjoy some incredible beer/ cider. Was a live band on a Friday night which was really fun. Also you can get Yard Sale Pizza delivered ! What a win.

Love the guys at Gipsy Hill, they rock \m/

An absolute pleasure for the senses! The menu offers a delightful mix of flavors, and the atmosphere is both inviting and sophisticated.

Very very noisy badly behaved kids. It’s like a crèche. Stay away until they go to bed

It really is excellent, lovely place and a great atmosphere

Love this place. Great quiz night on Wednesdays.

Great brewery tap with nice staff. Lovely atmosphere. You can order freshly fired pizzas in.

They don’t have food - hence my 1 star… but you can order pizza from a partner. Amazing place to go!

Great locally brewed beer and friendly service

Great place. The only thing stopping it from getting 5 stars is that it was a lovely, sunny day but their outdoor space was not open and you could not take drinks outside. I understand this is to do with their licensing but it was such a shame as we only stopped for one and then went somewhere with outdoor seating.

Great brewery and market stalls / food trucks. Well worth the walk up!

Great pizza delivered to the taproom. Very friendly and great atmosphere. The Ballers hazy ale was great.

Fab little place. Good for larger or smaller groups with nice outdoor area. Relaxing friendly vibe!

Great place to spend a Saturday afternoon in the sun. Inside is air conditioned, and they have a screen currently showing the rugby world cup . Most of the beers on tap are £5-£7 and they allow food from outside. There are some great food stalls outside too. Dog friendly, and a few table games

Had a funny time, nice atmosphere!

Them cheese pizzas look absolutely nutso-bananas! Shame I'm lactose intolerant innit

Very nice place. First time visited and really enjoyed. You have food, drinks, games. Everything to make a nice time to spend with friends or even to just grab a drink or food

Tasty lager and interesting events in a trendy tap room environment

Excellent beer, including their carbon negative ale.

A great place to spend an afternoon or evening. Good beer, relaxed atmosphere, good facilities and the chance to order in Yard Sale pizza. Can't wait to go back!

Amazing place to chill out with a beer in hand al fresco , food stalls are great to on weekends.

Cool place, delicious cocktails

Nice homely feeling bar, good selection of drinks both made on site and also from other breweries. Good selection of low and no alcohol drinks as well.

I attended a wedding reception here. The IPA was very nice , atmosphere humming.

Sat outside as a nice sunny day. Ordered pizza from the local delivery company which is over priced but easy, although their range is a bit limited. Most people there seemed to order as well Had a lovely cider, for a good price, from friendly staff

Awesome local spot. Lots of events going on there which I think I’ll get involved in. Great brewery tour & an excellent selection of beers! Best London brewery I have been to.

Decent tap room with lots of outside space. Not the biggest selection of beers/guest beers compared to other taprooms in North/East London but the best in South for sure (and the beers are good) Can order pizza from Yard Sale and the staff were super friendly and accommodating. We'll be back

Brilliant day out at the brewery. Fantastic tour and the beers were 10 out of 10

Great atmosphere and the friendliest staff in the world.

Great vibe. Quality beers. Friendly service. I recommend highly! Have to mention your branding and packaging too - bang on the money 😮‍💨👌🏻 Keep up the fine work, I’ll be back soon!

You don't go for the surroundings - trading estate - but the beer is lovely and the vibe is fun.

Great place especially on a sunny day! Good vibe and nice selection of beers, some from the brewery but also championing other small breweries. You can order Yard Sale pizza to the brewery with free delivery which is super convenient.

Unfortunately very disappointing experience this evening. Visited with 2 children and 3 adults. Were told very rudely by one staff member that we were not welcome after 7pm as we had children. There was one sign which stated this, displayed on a community notice board away from the service area. One of our group was refused service after this. Two of our group were tourists from Australia and were astonished to be treated in this way. If this is to be the rule of this establishment, the notice should be displayed clearly and also stated on its website.

Great day at Gypsy Hill good range beers and really nice outside area. Thanks guys

Great place to hang out on the sunshine on a Sunday afternoon. We ordered yard sale pizzas and had a couple of beers and it was delightful

Great brew pub. Selection was really nice

A great place for a family :) Relaxed and had a great meal! all happy, thank you!❤

No food, only option is to order pizza to be delivered at the brewery.

Great selection of beers. Large indoor and outdoor areas. Often has a food truck outside a few days a week.

So local it should be a crime. Great place

Love having a decent brewery on our doorstep, it's a great size meaning they can cater for a lot of people and the events are always good fun with a great atmosphere. Decent selection of beers on tap , both in-house and guest beers on rotation. My only wish is that they'd stock a wider variety of their own beers in the fridge! Staff are always really friendly.

What a great spot.....who knew you could have such a good time on an industrial estate!!!

Great taproom, dog friendly and you can get ‘yard sale pizza’ delivered to you

Great for lovers of beer (and I do mean beers), if you don't know of it's location you'll find it hard to find.

Nice beers but wish they had more lagers and pilsners

Great beer, great atmosphere, don't buy the pepperami sticks over priced and average (minor detail). The beer though is amazing.

Great tap with a good range of beers and ciders. Buy in Pizza looked good.

We popped in at about 6.30 p.m. on a Saturday and this place was buzzing! Great atmosphere, friendly staff, fantastic ales/beers... I'd have happily drunk along the menu, as it were. Our Hazy Pale and Witbier were fantastic. Music was on point and really added to the party atmosphere without overwhelming the place. Would have happily stayed longer, shame we couldn't. Will be back! TIP: Book a table in advance if you can, the place is rammed, and for good reason!

Great place with a decent selection of fresh beers

Brilliant Brewery, great community and fantastic beers, even better dogs ❤️

A great selection of tasty beers. Can smell a bit beery and it's not warm, even inside, but the staff have always been friendly and happy to give samples of the beers. The atmosphere is quite industrial, in a good way.

Delicious beer, that's all you need to know

Obsessed with this little brewery 🍺 Such lovely staff and all round good vibes. A real hidden gem 💎

Great place to meet with friends, eat, drink, and socialise.

Visited for Salad Days Craft Fair this Saturday. Not as many stalls as expected but alot of people. Given the space not sure how they would have fitted 60 stalls as advertised. Had takeaway from the Asian food stall very nice.The Brewing Company itself is a nice visit when not holding craft fairs.

Great selection of locally brewed beers, ciders, and distilled spirits. £5.50-7.50 a pint. Lively atmosphere in a Saturday night. Well worth the effort to find it, tucked away as it is.

Fantastic beer (as always) and great linkup with Yard Sale to order pizza to the tap room. Accomodating staff helped make for a lovely afternoon and we'll be back soon

Rip off if you order anything other than beer. Ordered an aperol spritz and they didn’t put Prosecco in it, just soda, regrettably paid for it but didn’t drink it. Ordered a vodka soda lime instead then they didn’t have lime or lemon or anything else to flavour it so I said I didn’t want it - they told me they refunded it but they didn’t. Finally just had a pint and left. £25 just to have a pint of cider. Not worth the trouble

Great place - very accommodating for a large group booking. Great beers, lively atmosphere and a cool collection of games for people to play with. Yard Sale pizza delivery is also a nice touch

Spacious taproom offering 14 beers on tap (a pair on cask) plus all the can range from Gipsy Hill. You might order pizza from a nearby place, which are great in taste, although the dough can get a bit soggy.

great tap room, great beers and staff.

We went for a Christmas market was very nice location

Loved Helles and tall guy v informative

Amazing brewery with great selection of beers, and food vendor. Definitely coming again!

Great food (had the feather steak and it was so good), loads of beer and drink options. Staff were also really lovely
