The Brewery Tap is a traditional pub set within the walls of the former Higsons and Robert Cain brewery on Stanhope Street, at the edge of Cains Brewery Village in Liverpool's Baltic Triangle. It serves cask ale - CAMRA records it as a LocAle pub - alongside a food menu, and has a real fire, a garden with outside tables, Wi-Fi and pay-and-display parking nearby. CAMRA lists live music among its facilities. It opens Thursday from 4pm and Friday to Sunday from noon, and is closed Monday to Wednesday.
The pub takes private hire for events of up to 80 guests, with buffet menus designed by the kitchen. It is owned freehold by the Mikhail Hotel and Leisure Group, whose Liverpool estate also includes the Bold Street Hotel, Lord Street Hotel, The Grand and Doctor Duncan's. The operator does not break the 80 down by room or by layout, so the single figure below is recorded as a whole-venue hire maximum rather than a seated or standing plan.
