Once The Palace of Arts - exhibiting masterpieces from all over the world and now the art work comes on a plate, the world renowned Sunday roast. So good we travelled up by train for the pleasure. The value for money is great and the service is smiley and helpful. Top tip: get your kids one to share. It’s big enough for two. Outside, the park in which the brewery is situated is steeped in history and modern day usefulness. Plenty of fresh air, green grass and a play park for the children. Enjoy!

Went as a party of 8, family lunch together including two children. Service was absolutely brilliant from the moment we sat down, the team couldn’t have been more attentive and friendly, especially the person who seemed to be our main server. Sorry I didn’t get your name but he was lovely and great with our niece and nephew. Food was exceptional, and with it being a brewery the choice of drinks is wide and also includes cocktails. Perfect Sunday lunch out!

Visited for the Trevor Nelson gig which was good . Couple of things no taxis were allowed to pull up to the venue so on arrival our taxi was stopped at the main gate by security. We had to walk up to the venue in the pitch black. No lighting around the lake area . I felt this was quite dangerous as it was pitch black. Arrived and scanned in fairly quickly. Headed to the bar on the left hand side of the venue. Paid £55.00 for two bottles of wine, after paying for them we were told there was no glass allowed in the venue and poured the wine into 4 flimsy plastic pint glasses. Had to ask for smaller glasses to drink out of. Made our way into the main hall where Trevor Nelson was performing. Couple of oil drums for tables but they were impractical . Vibration from the music made the drink slide off. Wine swilled everywhere and we were not prepared to spend another £55.00 quid. If they had told us this before we paid for the wine we would have just ordered individual drinks.

Went to visit the first day of battle of the burgers 2024 and unfortunately after all the hype it’s really not worth it… we are not from the local area and one member of the party requires a mobility scooter for long distances. I had messaged on instagram, left voicemails and emailed to see what parking arrangements were like but with no responses ended up parking in a small car park about 10 minutes walk away. As there was no signage advertising the event or the venue we attempted to follow Apple Maps which led us to curbs with no dropped sections for the scooter. Once we eventually got to the brewery I had to try and work out who was staff to help find a ramp to get into the building rather than the front stairs. The family member in the scooter then had to wait alone while I went back to the stairs to queue for tokens. Tokens were £5 each for 1 burger, slider size. I understand food vans / food festivals are on the more expensive side but for the size of the burgers this was definitely extortionate. Most people paid on card so it wouldn’t have been any more akward to charge something a little less. The space to walk around the vans was small and compact, with dogs, pushchairs and our mobility scooter we just ended up going to any van we could get to rather than trying some we had hoped for. Queues weren’t organised so it was hard to tell who was waiting to order, who was waiting for their food and who was just standing about chatting. We didn’t even attempt any bars as it wasn’t worth it. The food we had was lovely and would definitely go to see those vans elsewhere but we won’t be back to Wylam brewery or any of the other food battles any time soon.

The Brighton beach event just recently was disappointing considering it was marketed as a Mod event! So far away from a Mod event. Around 5 Northern soul tunes at the beginning of the evening, which incidentally wouldn’t always be classed as such but usually played by people who’ve no clue! No 60s soul, just Brit pop and 60s Rock or for the most part, & DJs attempt at mixing was atrocious, lots of overlap of music which just distorted the sound! if 60s Hippy Rock, were classed as mod then maybe your in for a great night. Drinks on the dance floor spilled all over the floor plastic glasses strewn around and some thought it was great to throw drinks across the dance floor too, lots of loitering about which made it near impossible to bust any moves if anyone actual had any to bust! The sound wasn't much to be desired although I did see some button twisting going on in the sound box however it just made it worse by the obvious fact they had no clue! This event should just be marketed as a 90s throw back student night, because it was neither 60s nor mod! The fact that an image of 60s twiggy was used as part of the marketing as well as the Roundel was hugely misleading for those who were expecting a respectable mod evening! Or even a 60s event with some Brit pop thrown in would have been acceptable! I can’t recommend this evening to anyone on the basis it’s neither Mod nor 60s. And just so that you can see that at the beginning of the evening I’ve uploaded a picture of the stage which as you can see the backdrop is misleading to say the least.

Went for a 50th birthday party at a Martin Kemp 80's night. Excellent gig and excellent acoustics. Only one issue: paying £18 for 2 drinks - a pint and a glass of wine is extortionate and will stop me from returning. Very disappointing from a local company.

We came to Wylam Brewery for our son’s wedding and what a day! The venue was amazing and everyone just helped to make the day perfect. The food and beer were great and so many special memories were made!
