When you’re done with the luge, the walking, or the mountain biking for the day, no doubt you’ll be needing some food and drink in your belly. Big hearty meals and cold beers straight from the tap make BREW an easy choice for hungry adventurers, and being owned by the folks from Croucher Brewing means that the full range of local Croucher beer is available.

Loaded nachos, pizzas, burgers, fish and chips and rump steak... the best advice we can give you is to come to BREW hungry. With regular live entertainment and a courtyard that looks out onto Eat Streat, this bar is a super friendly and unpretentious spot to come and chat with some other fellow adventurers — if you made friends earlier in the day on the mountain bike track, no doubt you’ll be seeing them here later.
