Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Went out for quiet pint but met not 1 but 2 obnoxious customers in this place. (And there were were only 6 of us there at the time!). Lovely barwoman / manager too scared to put them out, so guess what? That's right: I'll never go back!!! Jim

Myself and my girlfriend visited yesterday for the brewery tour. We had a fantastic experience, great value for money for an authentic experience. Shout out to Hayden our excellent tour guide and the barman (who played us a few songs) who made us feel welcome as soon as we arrived.
Overall would highly recommend if you’re visiting Bournemouth, a great afternoon!

Second time we’ve been here. Wonderful selection of beers, with ales brewed onsite. A shovehapenny for shots game at the bar. A downstairs cinema and wonderful service. They also have great music nights like the one tonight. Great decor too. So if you like, great beer, exceptional service, heart warming ambience and music go. We stumbled on it originally, now we are giving you the heads up while having a second go ourselves. Bliss.

Had a great time. Our tour guide was Jennifer who owns the place and it was great, very interesting and she is clearly passionate about beer. All the beers were great and we had quite a few on the tour. We went back after dinner at Lolas and caught a band called Dirty Tricks which was a fab end to the evening. We all had a great time and I'd recommend it .. thanks Jennifer

I booked a brewery tour for me and my sister as a birthday present and I wasn't disappointed. Ed (and other customers) were really friendly and welcoming, telling us about the bar before our tour. Hayden was our tour guide and what can I say, he was informative, friendly and really lovely. We bought some of our favourite ales to bring home but will definitely be back soon. Thank you to both Ed and Haydon for giving us such a fabulous day.

Hi, there is limited parking on some of the side roads. Otherwise there is a car park in West Hill Road which is a very short walk away from the Brewery.
