About Gipsy Hill Taproom
A not untypical one-room brewery tap directly opposite the brewery.. A sizeable space with plenty of seating and tables. Its long bar and visible cellar occupies virtually the whole of the left-hand side as you enter with three large fridges stocking beers for take-away. There is a large outside seating area albeit in what is essentially the yard/car park but no doubt a pleasant place to sit in warm weather. Up to 10 keg beers available. To the far right of the room are some 20 wooden barrels (ex whisky or red wine) in which beer is quietly ageing. Payment by card only. Food can be ordered from Yard Sale Pizza from menus provided. On Fridays the takeaway service is available from 4pm. As of 2024, has two handpumps selling real ale and real cider.

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.

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 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…

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 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.
