The recently restored, Last St Brewery, in the heart of Beechworth, offers a family friendly menu featuring local produce and an extensive drinks menu including the full range of traditional cordials, classic sodas, hand crafted spirits, beers on tap and cocktails.

Pia, Dave and the Team are amazing. The meals are always not only delicious but a very, very generous size. The menu is extensive and so is the special boards as well. Fairhaven and the Community are so fortunate to have this service and these quality meals, just on their door step for the summer month's. Thank you for what you do and have created. Jo

Beechworth

About the restaurant

Bridge Road HQ is situated in a circa 1850s Victorian Gold rush era coach house. This beautiful building has been our home since 2006.

Our venue is famous far and wide not only for its beer and food but a relaxed family-friendly atmosphere.
Our taproom showcases a rotating 20 tap house-brewed line-up featuring core range favourites and limited releases in a wide range of styles to cater for all beer lovers.

Beer's not your thing? We pour a curated selection of wine, gin, and whisky all local to the North East.
The Bridge Road pizzeria takes the Austrian Alps meets Northern Italian influence of co-founder Maria Kraus and puts it through the filter of the Victorian High Country, making for pizzas worthy of a road trip.

We love to celebrate local and seasonal produce where possible, and we’re proud to champion the best in our region.
