Shakespeare Tavern & Brewery - details
Average rating: 
Drawing an eclectic crowd including staff from the nearby New Zealand Herald offices, the Shakespeare is loud, casual and a whole lot of fun. A pioneer of the boutique-brewery industry, the Shakespeare brews 10 of its own beers on the premises, and serves from 3 different bars. This is a traditional English-style pub with unpretentious decor. Downstairs there is a bar, a few booths and some tables. The function room is upstairs with a lovely terrace for outdoor dining and drinking. The decor is unpretentious. The beer is the attraction, with regular brews and other specialties as per the whim of the brewer, beer drinking is nowhere better. Their ales are especially tasty.
