About Sambrook's Brewery Tap
Modern, craft beer producer with guided premises tours, tasting sessions and an on-site shop.
Sambrook's Brewery Tap opened in July 2021 on the site of the former Young's Brewery at the Ram Quarter in the heart of Wandsworth.
The Tap has outside seating in Bubbling Well Square and two inside bars, one downstairs with tall tables and stools plus a snug to one side with bench seating. The upstairs bar is also a mix of tall tables and stools plus plenty of comfortable bench seating. Both bars have great views of some large fermenting and conditioning tanks. The upstairs bar and a separate private events room are available for hire.
The four cask handpumps are bespoke, made for Sambrook's by Harry Masons in Birmingham who have been making specialist beer engine equipment since 1803. The fourth handpump features one of Sambrooks expanding range of ad hoc seasonal beers, and could be Powerhouse Porter, Lavender Hill, Brown Dog Riot, Four Chimneys Stout or Half Time Oranges. A new cask ale is featured on the final Thursday of every month. Several beer festivals are held throughout the year, including 'Beer by the River' in September and a Mild Festival in May.
The old coppers from the Young's Brewery form the centrepiece of a heritage centre and museum to commemorate continuous brewing on this site since 1522. Brewery and Heritage Centre tours can be booked in advance.
On site pizzas are provided by Crust Bros. Several bus routes stop nearby and Wandsworth Town Station is an eight minute walk.

Great brewery! The Block Party IPA is fresh and delicious. The (margherita) pizza and salad were both tasty. The ambience is relaxed, and service is good. I only gave it four stars because I wish they had more types of IPA on tap.

Nice place with quite the industrial chic going on. Small bar with a pizza counter opposite keeps the bases covered. But if you think that drinking in a brewery will be cheaper than you local, think again - I had 2 of the Shot Put Stout (which was absolutely lovely), but at £6.50 a crack, you're not really saving anything. The staff were friendly and happy to chat and there is an upstairs area with a small bar as well and outdoor seating which you walk through to enter. Arguably a wheelchair's paradise there is that much room!

Can’t recommend this place enough! The beers are unreal and the pizza is top notch as well. All the staff were super friendly and gave great beer recommendations.

Looking for some freshly brewed beverages in Wandsworth? If so, then this is the perfect place for you!! With a broad range of fresh beers available. I'd highly recommend that you try before you buy however as there are many available.

Favourite local place to have a pint with a massive selections of home brewed options as well as guest beers (one of the few places to serve Hawkstone in London!). Pizza was great as well, stone baked and hand made. Amazing garden spaces within a secluded but very pleasant square. Well worth a visit even if not local!
