Hoedspruit Brewing Co, has to be one of the first stops after touching down from a flight to the popular bush veld town of Hoedspruit. It is the perfect place to take ones first exhales into that bush life!
Enjoy a cold one and start your holiday with a super thin sourdough style, crispy wood fired pizza, topped with vibrant and colourful ingredients like the popular ‘Tandoori chicken pizza’ with piquant sweet peppers, spicy succulent chicken strips and fresh coriander. Another absolutely must order is the ‘Lamb Yiros‘, tender strips of lamb wrapped up in a house-made lightly pan-fried fluffy Greek Style flatbread, stuffed with a ruby slaw and tzatiki sauce with shoestring fries.

There is more than enough choice on this menu, also including gourmet hotdogs, fresh and tasty salads and 3 hour slow cooked ribs to make everyone in the family happy whilst enjoying the laid back atmosphere of the towns favourite brewery.
The Brewery boasts a selection of taster trays and pints, large or small drawn on request from ice cold kegs.
The Brewery celebrates a wide range of Proudly South African brewed beers, all the way from the Cape, Jozi and Limpopo and for those who are not partial to lager or ale, the gin and tonics are top notch and will do just fine in the heat of the African sun!

Walking into the open plan restaurant, one is greeted by happy and enthusiastic staff. Efficient and friendly but not overly attentive, the restaurant can get quite busy, especially on game days where the rugby or other South African favourites are broadcast from the in house televisions.
When visiting the Hoedspruit Brewery Co, one does so for the energetic atmosphere, roaring outdoor wood fired pizza oven, sports broadcast events and to share some good food with a chilled pint amongst friends! The perfect way to start the weekend and make the whole family happy!
