Rocks Brewing Co Brewery Bar

Sydney Harbour and Bridge view, with the sun on your back, in a chilled back environment… What more can you ask for :-)
So central to meet up with friends for lunch, or that special friend for dinner and drinks.
They’ve got such a wide variety of local, international and craft beers, too many to list on this review, though do check them out on the menu.
The meals were good, not great, though good enough for the price of around $ 20, everything consider.
I would recommend this place for almost every occasion. Maybe not for a family with kids, though apart from that, drink and eat on!

How often do you get to go to a brewery and have fresh beer in the city area?! Not often I’m sure!
Rocks is basically one of a kind brewery! Close to city, great beer, great food! With lots of parking and easy access! Basically awesome!
I especially love how they have got lots of exclusive beers and they change it around a fair bit quite often too!
Certainly worth trying! Great environment!
Probably not a date setting but certainly good for a few close friends!

The beer was great, the service was amazing and we had a great night all round. HOWEVER two of us ordered the brisket sandwich and it was so chewy that it was inedible. I couldn’t believe it. Especially because the salad, corn and fries were delicious but it really sucked.
Nobody checked why we had left so much of them either… Which was also a bit sad.
I’ll definitely come back, but probably not for dinner just the awesome beers!

It’s an amazing venue that is driven by the guys behind Harts Pub (The Rocks) and The Lord Raglan (Redfern). Staying true to the craft beer of Australia and serving up fresh and amazing food.
Plenty of parking, kid friendly, pets welcome and just ask the staff for a taste of any beer if you don’t know what they are before you buy a pint! Love there Conviction!

After coming from sky zone and building up quite a thirst and appetite, I found this place straight after! It’s a bar type setting with indoor and outdoor seating, very spacious and lots of timber décor which made the brewery like setting. A popular choice was 5 mini size beer for $ 15 dollars — you can choose your own flavours. Or alternatively you can do a brewery tour for $ 20 and the mini size beer combo is included. The place was well heated and provides blankets if you’re cold. This place is a nice place to go to for drinks especially as they had a nice singer with a guitar which really set a mood. I ordered the lamb ribs which were very tasty, the only thing was they had a little too much fat on them and not enough meat so I only ate about half but the flavour was there. The cuisine is bar type food they have options of finger food like dips, nachos and chips or more substantial options like steaks and burgers. The dessert choice is sticky date pudding! This place is a little hard to find but was a lovely experience when I was there.

At first glance this precinct looks simply like a parking lot. Venture a little further and there’s a vibrant micro brewery with plenty of space to mingle. We enjoyed live music whilst sampling some unique beers and ciders. The food was also tasty and reasonably priced. Being a Saturday night, booking a table was a must as this place is a hidden gem. A great place for a catch up with friends and is family friendly!

Love this place almost as much as I love their other venue, Harts Pub. Same great beers and food. Just not as convenient for me.

Popped in here to meet up with some friends on a Saturday evening. They have a huge industrial beer garden with some high, planted out benches, sporting some habanero plants, lemon grass and loquat trees, somewhat mimicking a sustainable restaurant garden.
For a Winter’s eve it wasnt particularly packed, and you’d be forgiven if it took you 30 mins to find the place at all, as it is hidden at the back of an industrial complex.
Obviously Alexandria has room for ventures like this craft brewery. and to make it more interactive, they have a bar and restaurant attached.
It went a little something like this.
–Approach bar and wait our turn.
–Staff member asks what we’d like, then immediately ignores us in favour of something another staff says to her
— Finally order after she asks «what do you want?» abruptly. Clearly other staff had given her bad news.
— Man friend tells me not to go ape shit about shitty service. — Pet hate.
–I order hot wings.
We rejoined our mates, who immediately say «I hope you didnt order the hot wings because they are rubbish.» — straight up buyers remorse.
They were right. The hot wings were rubbish, over cooked and basically soaked in vinegar. Avoid at all costs. My friends had previously received theirs terribly under cooked, and soaked in vinegar. They returned them and were given a couple of free starters. Salt and pepper Calamari was really much better.
The beer was fricking excellent.
The Beers are named in a colonial fashion and the one called «The Governor» is one of the best craft beers going around in Sydney right now.
I tried, «The Hangman» Pale ale which was also exceptionally good.
You can order a 1.5L growler of any of these to take home. They come in a funky brown plastic bottle.
Others I didnt try are staples of the brand, and if you are drinking at the venue, there are also brewery only specials like Apple truck cider. No one could tell us if they had put my foe preservative in it, so I didn’t partake.
In all this place is hit and miss.
Amazing beers, service varies from friendly to icy cold.
Men’s toilets were apparently all kinds of messed up.
Food was below average.
Come for the beer, forget the rest.

A Hidden Gem tucked away but worth seeking out! Good honest tasting craft beer! Quirky vibe! Open for breaky, lunch & dinner!

The beer is excellent. With a wide variety of flavors from you to choose from. But the food is not that great.

A great restaurant right next to a huge, fully-​functioning brewery – sorta makes you feel like being in Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory. The location is a bit hidden from the road, but well worth a visit! The food is amazing, with a wide-​ranging menu and generous portions. The staff is super friendly too. Definitely check this one out!
