The Tap & Brew is latest addition to the Old Town beer scene. The inside is plain and functional with a variety of seating options. The six hand pumps and twelve keg taps sell a full range of beers from both the Cricklade and Swindon Hop Kettle breweries. There is a small outside drinking area at the front and a larger open area at the back. Pizza and street food is provided by 'Scratch Made Kitchen'.

Refurbished in April 2024 the Tap & Brew is also home to Light Bulb Coffee who serve coffee and cakes from 7am - 6pm weekdays and from 8am on the weekend.
