stomping ground beer hall

parking 👎
venue 👍
bar service 👎 but it was busy for a sunday lunch.foodwas ok, ancient grans salad and lamb shoulder was spot on, the pizzas on the other hand were stingy and bland. great selection of craft beers!

what a great find! loads of beer options at average/reasonable prices, and thefoodis delicious! we only had a few starters but they were great, especially the olives! a great feel to the place, a nice semi-outdoor area, and lots of seating. you will definitely feel welcome here as there's such a vast variety of people/groups here!

great joint to meet up with mates. many places say they're child friendly but this one really is with a full on kids playground inside - more like rufio's cubbyhouse village in hook than a sleek mcdonald's playset - and discounts for parents & kids during the week. varied and interesting array of beers on tap ranked helpfully with strength/flavour colours for easy selection - and the cool feature of laminated menus that you can draw on with a non-permanent marker and they'll pour you a tasting selection of whatever you have chosen. thefoodhere is uniformly fantastic - great burgers and sticky delicious chicken wings with sauce so abundant you'll need a firehose to wash your fingers afterwards. but it's worth it.

great spacious venue, went on a monday night thefoodwas delicious (highly recommend the lamb shoulder), cubby house is a great idea didn’t see the kids all evening

can’t stop, won’t stop, stomping my feet!
stomping, you made me happy.

came here on a quiet tuesday night with friends. sat close to the fireplace on a cold night and enjoyed every minute of it!

these guys make their own beer so it’s pretty amazing! also tried the mother’s day sour and it was ok, too much gas for my personal taste.

we ordered fish and chips, and two pizzas: prosciutto and the nduja.

the first was good and really big!! sharing is a recommendation. the prosciutto pizza was very nice! i personally didn’t like the nduja, a bit boring and spicy. also, it’s a bit expensive for barfoodthough the portions are quite generous.

was told that it gets packed on weekends (the place is huge)! it even has a playground for kids!

recommended!

the best venue in melbourne!! our group had a fantastic function at stomping ground beer hall last week! thefoodwas amazing (our pizzas were unbelievably delicious!), the staff were friendly, knowledgeable and warmly accommodating and the venue looked stunning as we celebrated amongst the greenery! i would highly recommend stomping ground for a function, lunch, dinner, family gathering or all of the above! can’t wait to go back.

nice, large airy venue with lots of seating and a play area for kids. dogs are allowed inside, not sure how i feel about that in a venue that serves food. you orderfoodand drinks via the qr code at the table. i ordered an aperol spritz which was average. their online menu says $15 but i was charged $16.27. really hoping their prices have gone up otherwise that's a ridiculous surcharge. interestingly in a time of covid when you order snacks such as hot chips you don't get any cutlery or napkins let alone plates. it all seemed really overpriced for what it was and just gave off a penny-pinching vibe.

4.0 very good

caught up with friends at this large craft beer hall, plenty of large tables and a great selection of beers. because i get intoxicated quite easily i opted for pots so i could try a wider variety of different beers (i also snuck in a few samples from my friend’s beers).

i went for the more interesting flavours such as ca phe cream ale which is their inspiration behind vietnamese ice coffee. seeing as i have this at least once a week, it was a natural selection for me and they did it justice, the coffee tasted like the real thing and had a creamy froth to replicate the creaminess of the condensed milk. i also sampled their watermelon smash and two to mango, sour but i couldn’t distinguish the corresponding fruits. others couldn’t either but some could. their pina colada smash had a pleasant coconut and pineapple taste to it, would order again.

with the beer we had to get some snacks! beer battered chips were amazing, very crispy served with a side of aioli. i couldn’t stop reaching for them! we also shared their bbq duck merguez sausages served under a bed of chorizo, giant couscous and yoghurt. really rich flavours especially the from the juices of the chorizo which gave it a nice kick.

we couldn’t say no to some wood-fired pizza either, we sat close to the kitchen and seeing the continual flow of pizzas it was hard to resist. we got a couple of margheritas to share which were decent, the dough was quite crisp yet had a good chew to it. clean pizza, not many blisters and little char.

excellent spot for a catch up, good beer, goodfoodand caters for friends who like to show up last minute.

this place is off its head!!!!! absolutely brilliant set up and plenty of room great atmos more beer than you can poke a stick at #drunklife will have to edit my review for thefoodpart next time i’m there

if you love your beer, then stomping ground is the place for you. a huge space with an excellent bar serving all their best brews; there really is something for everyone here. it gets really crowded, and be quite noisy, so it's great for big groups and catch ups with friends.

there is also a dining area, with plenty offoodavailable, so you can settle in for a while if you like. we found the service to be really good, and the bar staff were really friendly and helpful with suggestions about the beers. a great venue with a cool vibe, it's little wonder that this place is often standing room only.

will come back for:
+ beers (pale ale)
+ mushroom stew
+ prosciutto pizza

great brewery cum gastro pub, with a really good vibe and great dining space. the beers were top notch, and we’ll certainly be back to try the beer paddle sometime. thefoodwas hit and miss though. really love the mushroom stew which was hearty, tasty, and delightfully textural. the prosciutto pizza was great (fresh ingredients, and a great balanced of flavour on great pizza base). the smoked salmon and white bait dishes were a miss for us. the balance of flavour in the salmon dishes was a tad off, and needed something savoury to bring this back in line, and the white bait was a bit “fishy” and missing some spice. service was good and friendly, prices was reasonable and we’ll certainly be back to try out some of the other offerings.

great spot. yummyfoodand really cool atmosphere- good place for dinner and drinks after work with friends. especially love sharing the yummy pizzas over a few glasses of bubbles.

love the atmosphere and deco of this brewery. there's a great selection of beer on tap and it's a lovely place to catch up with friends/family. unfortunately i don't think thefoodis quite on the same level as the beer or surrounds. the sweet potato chips and beer battered chips were good, the whitebait was not very crispy, haloumi fingers were ok, cauliflower croquettes had a lovely sauce, calamari was good, fior de burrata and duck terrine were ok, lamb shoulder was ok and beef brisket was soft but there was perhaps too much bbq sauce on top which overpowered the beef underneath. overall, a fun place for drinks and very family friendly.

what a beautiful and big place. decorated well and thefoodwas great.
we had the smoked salmon rilettes and the duck and pistachio and the leek and gruyere croquettes. i highly recommend all 3 dishes.

the music by the self indulgent dj's was so overpowering it was impossible to hear people talk in this pub environment.

everything else was good about this place, bar staff were prompt and friendly,foodwas good and came out quickly but i can only give this place the minimum rating as the volume of the music just destroyed the night for me and all of my friends.

i would not return again if saturday night's volume is an indication of the regular atmosphere here.
