The Welder's Dog reviews
5 Star Review by Sandra Irwin
Wonderful Cozy Place. Yes I tried 8 different beers n Stouts. Exceptional. I thoroughly enjoyed myself there. Highly Recommended
3 Star Review by Robbie Pacheco
Arrived early on a Sunday afternoon and were first clients, friendly bar tender greeted us. Music was a tad loud for conversation, place presents like a bar rather than brewery. My favourite was the American pale ale but did find most were slightly on the'flat' side for my liking.
5 Star Review by Giulia
We didn't think we could find such a lovely and funky place in a rural town. We loved it and we'll be back. Nice selection of beers and ciders, mulled wine, good music selection and staff are lovely. This is a relaxing place :)
5 Star Review by Gary L
Cool bar in town, with a great selection of beers and spirits, music was spot on. They don't really offer food (cheese etc) so they let you bring your own food in. The pizza place next door is decent and there are plenty of other options nearby. Had fun and the beers were great.

5 Star Review by Mark Staggs
What an awesome find in wonderful Tamworth. As soon as you walk in you can feel a good vibe with lots of energy. We were treated to fantastic service by the staff. We ordered some of the local brews and took in the atmosphere. Do yourself a favour and check this place out.
5 Star Review by lachlan gilmore
Solid beer range and nice relaxed environment. All the windows open to provide a nice breeze and cruisy music to have a few beers with mates. Food is BYO mostly but plenty of nearby places to sort you out.
