Reviews of Brave Brewing Co
H.One of the best burgers I’ve had in my life. Beautiful place, great prices, atmosphere was good and most importantly good beer! Would 10/10 recommend!
A.Very tasty burger + chips (14$ + 2$) and 8$ salad side. 9$ drink (cider - quite expensive). Highly recommended. Must visit.
——————
Visited again and beef burger with chips 13+2$.
Comparable to burger fuel but size is small.
Definitely worth it..
————
Visited again dec 2021
Prices have increased.
This time has chicken burger 14$. The chicken was quite dry and felt a little charred.. also had chicken wings. 4 for 15$ (500gms). With brave beer 8$ this was 37$. Felt quite expensive for the size of the burger and the wings. Quality has decreased..
J.Great selection of beverages, but the chicken based dishes were underwhelming, the meat was pretty tough.
H.Casual dinning, great food and nothing on the menu over $16. Brave Brewing Co. is a great place to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon with friends and a cold bevvie that won't cost an arm and a leg.
O.This is my idea of how a Kiwi craft beer outlet should be. Good prices good food. Would just love to see more choice in the hoppy beer range. But that is not a criticism... just what I would like to see. Best bar is Hastings.
T.Awesome spot! Great beers, tasty and affordable food. Can’t wait to go back.
S.Had a really enjoyable experience, a good range of beers which certainly hit the spot. Our group ordered a selection of finger foods that were well presented and full of flavour. The service was professional and yet truly hospitable. Overall a great experience and well worth trying. Well done to the team.
S.Great beer, good selection of food and casual place to hang out in central Hastings. Enjoyed the vegetarian food on offer and a good mix of food for the kids as well. Nice and clean and staff are great. Well worth a visit.
P.I always had their Tigermilk IPA in Auckland as a drink so had to come here to check out the brewery and other beers on tap. Was absolutely not disappointed, had great service and the beers were amazing. Plus who can say no to $6 hotdogs?
R.Such an awesome place. Food was fantastic. Service was amazing beers were fab too. Will be back
C.Some truly unique and delicious craft beer! We were able to sample several and learn about their process before ordering which was great. The staff was all super kind and knowledgeable. We also ordered food from Asian diner and it was AMAZING! If we had been staying in hawke’s bay for a longer time we for sure would’ve returned!!
A.Such a great bar. Awesome staff. Great beer. Just a perfect place to sit and watch the world go by. 😊
R.It's OK. The beer is what you're really going for, saying that, no dark beer available.
The burgers were pretty small and Ice-cream was brought out with the mains, in summer?
K.Great beer and food. Good atmosphere
D.Terrific chips and delicious burgers. Very messy in a good way. Good service and great beer.
T.I knew the beer would be good, but the food and the service were great too. Comfortable, low key approach.
I.They always have a great range of beers, but the icing on the cake (or should I say foam on the beer) is their asian style food. I recommend the Korean Chicken Burger with Fries and Curry Ketchup.
J.Relaxed atmosphere, good beer selection and food.
D.Service was great It was hot dog night Wednesday economical and food was good
B.The Tofu burger needs a bit of boost , perhaps salté mushroom could make difference.🤔
Staff very friendly , nice atmosphere any time.
C.Nice beer. Good experience
A.Great beer, 100% recommend this place to anyone that enjoys a good cold beer
W.Decent food, friendly service and v nice vibe that will fit in any mood.
D.Sickest place in town. Great beers, food is excellent and well priced, and an awesome space.
P.FYI - a slab of TIGERMILK easily fits in a beer fridge. So I suggest buying 2 slabs! 😉
D.The new place is amazing. Beautiful fitout, delicious new menu and perfect beers as always.
H.Pleasant beers and the Asian inspired food works well with the beer
C.Great beers, food and atmosphere!
J.Great beer and food! The food is at a price point that I can afford to be a regular customer - we often find ourselves here for dinner and a drink on Friday. Great service and atmosphere.
P.Great little pub. Nice hot wings. Very clean and friendly place.
M.Best brewery in the area. Great beers and super friendly, awesome burgers too.
L.The food is always amazing. The menu changes slightly over time so you always have your flavourites as well as new persuasions. Extremely hard to beat value for money food. The bar is also great.
T.Great venue for a couple beers and food. Beers are fantastic. Service awesome. Food banging. Cool old building. Recommend it highly.
J.A lovely relaxing spot, great beers, food and staff.
J.A must do while in the Bay, awesome beer, great food, cool staff and sweet set up
T.Great atmosphere, only stayed for beers. Looking at other peoples food, made me think it might be good to pop in for a feed one of these days. All the plates looked inviting.
C.Fabulous food - didn't try beer & the only downer was no coffee but otherwise fab
W.We called in on way to Freb Fountain concert. Just a drink and snack.
Staff really helpful. Tasted a couple of beers and settled on pocket rocket.
Really tasty and interesting salad and yummy chips.
Very pleasant experience.
H.Great place! Amazing vibe and terrific beer. 🍻
C.Great beer, food and staff! I always feel welcome. It's a great place to spend the evening. I especially recommend having the Tiger Milk IPA and Korean chicken together. Yum!
M.Great food, friendly staff. Loved the atmosphere and has a nice outdoor seating area to catch some sun rays whilst you enjoying their outstanding self-brewed beer with delicious food
J.Great bar and great beer. A real boutique brewery with beer being made in front of you while you sample some very good ale.
A.Highly recommend dropping into Brave if you are in Hastings. Really high quality beers with some guest taps too. The food is really good also. We had a couple burgers, the fried chicken and eggplant parm both were great!
M.Excellent beer and food, and outstanding service. Can’t wait to come back. Thanks team.
L.It's a pity since they have the best beer in Hawke's Bay but the food is now mediocre. Last year we used to go and the food was as amazing as the beer. Now we have visited the new location and we were terribly disappointed. We ordered a cheese burger and chicken wings and both were poor . I am so sorry, I hope you can improve the quality of the menu because the beer deserves it.
G.Great beer. Feels like they are operating safely in level 2
M.As always fantastic service and a well poured beer while waiting for a takeaway from Asian Diner
a.Best brew in the bay, hey, even the world! People Pils is by far the BEST Pilsner I have ever tried. Must see, must taste!
R.Incredible, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Beautiful beer. Good music. Affordable yum food. What’s not to love. I luv I luv I luv
R.The beer was nice and the chicken wings were delicious with generous quantities. Great staff. I was disappointed with my prawn roll which reminded me of prefrozen mixed with mayo? Perhaps some music?
T.Very friendly staff, nice food and tasty beer
j.Friendly atmosphere
Delicious menu
Loved the setting 🌟
B.The food was really really tasty and they accommodated my wife’s allergies with ease. Once we mentioned them they worked with us to find solutions on the menu. We really appreciated that. Unfortunately they were out of the beer that we really wanted to try, I wasn’t overly impressed by the beer they made but don’t get me wrong they were good beers. I’m just super spoilt coming from Wellington.
E.Friendly and accomodating staff, even as I asked about single every beer they had. Great beer to buy takeaway, wish i could've stayed for food.
B.Great beer, awesome spot, friendly staff
J.Fantastic! Great beer, yum food, and excellent service. A winning combo. Definitely recommend.
Y.Brut IPA and salted grapefruit sour were absolutely wonderful beers. We haven’t seen such creativity in a while and it was greatly appreciated. They also had cornhole! The friendly woman working the taps gave us some stickers and they are adorable- y’all should definitely have them for sale! Overall a stylish hangout, would love to go back!
C.Great pub, fantastic drinks, lively atmosphere.
I.Although the space is pretty tight, the environment is really good and is a sensible place for a quick stop. Good place to go for food it you're meeting with a small group. Very good selection of beer and great rotation of products as well. Staff are very welcoming.
C.Good drinks, good food, good service, always happy to go back!
S.Visiting from Tauranga we had heard how amazing the beer was here, so put it on our bucket list.
We didn't realise they opened at midday, so wandered and for 1/2 hr.
When we got back 4 people were waiting for the magic hour.
What a lovely space, very helpful friendly staff, funky surrounds.
Within 5mins there was a queue and about 40 people in 20mins.
Although we didn't eat there we were amazed how quickly the food came out.
Oh yes the ales were superb.
Please come to Mt Maunganui sometime & open a brewery.
C.Great, good food,helpful staff
P.Great beer. Great food. Great staff.
And I haven't even started yet!
If you enjoy Craft Beer this is the place to go in Hastings.
There are other top places too but Brave is my pick of them all.
H.Incredible place. Feels like a Brooklyn brewery. Great design, lovely beers, friendly staff, warm atmosphere. Perfect !
C.Great brewery bar, we tried a couple of the burgers with fries and some of the ciders, enjoyed our meals and drinks. I'm already thinking about going back to try some of the on-site brewed beer range!
T.A fantastic selection of beers, topped off by excellent food. The menu isn't huge, but what's available is served fast and is extremely delicious. The Brave Brewing beers are among my favorites, but there's a good range here to please anyone and the non-alcoholic sodas are quite tasty too. We'll be visiting again!
c.Nice Meal. Beers not bad either.
A.Great burger good price awesome beer selection. Will only get better as they develop great addition to the Hastings scene
K.Be nice if you kept the coleslaw off the bottom of burger, couldn't eat it without knife and fork ,and then u got the paper serviaete underneath as well
