Stayed in Lewes for the weekend and went to Beak on Friday night. Lots of great beers for my husband and alcohol free choice for me. Nice tacos from the guys from Field and Flame too.

It's likely due to the festival and limited staff at the taproom, but the patrons here are filled with terrible people.Hopefully not representive of the local community, but the arrogance and lack of respect (spilling beer on women and then asking if they were with anyone) makes this an easy miss when you have to travel out of the way to get to.Wonderful beer, worth having anywhere but here.

I almost don't want to leave a review because this place is clearly already very popular and it's maybe hard to visit without a reservation, but it was so great that I couldn't resist adding to the top reviews. The beer is outrageously good and there is so much choice. There was a pizza company cooking on the Saturday we went and the prices were very reasonable. I love tap rooms and this is up there with the best I have visited. Well done!!

Really nice place albeit in a slightly strange location on an industrial estate. We went there towards the end of lockdown as you can eat and drink outside. It’s very popular so you need to reserve tables ahead of time. The staff were great - friendly helpful and fast. It’s a micro-brewery with its own beers available (mainly pale ales) and a good range of beers from other suppliers. There’s always a food truck present from which you can buy decent fast food. Recommended.

One of my favourite breweries so was super chuffed to get a chance to sit outside in glorious weather and drink their amazing IPAs and Pale Ales. Great taproom.

Without a doubt the absolute highest bar at which craft beer should be judged, not just locally or nationally but globally. So good that not only had we driven three hours to visit but another couple had driven six!The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating and downright brilliant in every way. Their support for, and collaboration with, other breweries and beer spots shows a genuine passion that goes beyond just being a simple brewery and taproom.The seating areas are comfortable and communal enough to meet new people with some more private spots if you're there for a little peace and quiet. Even the merch is superfluous in quality!The rotating food trucks are good value and always top notch, with vegan options aplenty.If I could find one fault, I'd have to be an even more cynical person than I am, but it's honestly just not possible.If you're thinking about heading to Lewes for a visit, stop thinking and get down there! Beak is a shining light marking the completion of one's craft beer pilgrimage.

Having discovered this place about three years ago it amazingly has never disappointed! The beers are excellent and super well priced(some for £5.50 a pint) considering it’s some of the best craft beer in the UK. It’s always well staffed and you never wait long at the bar. The food options they have are always super tasty and varied so you rarely come across the same food van unless you are there every week.Wish this place was my local.

So disappointing tonight, a real shame.A regular customer having visited plenty of times over the last 3 years both for drink in, dine in and take out cans.The Caccia takeover today was a real let down. Incredibly overpriced and underwhelming food - a chunk of under filled bread, tasteless ice berg wedge salad, at least the chips were decent enough.£72 for 3 adults and a toddler. £12 Negronis, feels like a piss take given the setting and standard being served up.It really feels like the foundation of offering an inclusive, local, high quality product has been lost.A massive let down at the end buying takeaway cans with incredibly small range and low stock and told to buy elsewhere from local retailers.This is supposed to be a taproom, a front for a really good brand who have aimed to keep quality at the forefront. Can prices reflect that and the product rarely misses the mark.It’s not the first time the food offering has been poor, perhaps a proper review of suppliers, quality and prices is needed as it’s a real turn off.
