Breakwater Brewery Taproom & Pizzeria, Dover

Modern brewery's taproom.

The brewery is located on the site of the Harding's Wellington Brewery which closed in 1890. The brewery tap room can be found in a single storey building, where the brewing takes place, and some brewery vessels are visible from the bar area.

The bar is modern, well lit and furnished with chunky wooden furniture, colourful table runners and a bar counter that resembles a stone breakwater.

At the front, there's a large patio with pergola and there's a smaller paved patio overlooking the river to the side.

From a temperature controlled cellar room, the brewery's own cask ales and ciders are sold on gravity. There's also a good selection of their own craft keg beers.

In their pizzeria, you can watch freshly stretched pizza being cooked in the huge stone baked oven. The pizzeria can be booked for private functions.

Events include regular live music events, open mic nights and hog roasts in the summer months. Full details can be found on their FaceBook page.
