The Brewery Tap

Head down to Lawson Road and you'll find yourself in a proper working pub that takes its beer seriously without any of the pretension. The Brewery Tap isn't trying to be anything other than what it is: a place where locals gather for a pint of something worth drinking, whether that's a crisp lager or one of the rotating craft offerings on tap. The vibe is refreshingly unpretentious—you'll see builders chatting with students, regulars who've claimed their spots at the bar, and people who just fancied a decent pint after work. It's the kind of place where the staff actually know what they're pouring and won't judge your order.
