What a hidden gem, stumbled across whilst on holiday, the selection of beers are some of the best I've come across, service was top notch and the quality of food was excellent. We will definitely be returning when we're next away in the area.

Couldn’t recommend more! Great beer and huge selection at reasonable prices - both really refreshing attractions in this day of age! If your general preference is lager rather than ale, then highly recommend the ‘Falifornia’ and fear not cider drinkers, Rattler’s on tap too. Sunday roasts are wonderful, burgers delicious too. Spacious seating, inside and out and good program of entertainment. Very friendly and welcoming staff to boot. Over and out now, there’s beer to be drunk

Goodh / Skinners taproom, with a great variety of very good beers on draught, cask and cans. We tried the food and had a few beer tasters - we loved everything so much that we returned next day. Very nice, friendly and chill athmosphere, overall - a great experience - a place I would visit again if in the area.

The Tapyard Riverside used to be the old home of the Skinners Brewery. When the Skinner’s brewery failed, the Goodh Brewery took over the site and moved from its previous location at the old print works. The choice of beers is simply excellent and there is plenty to suit every taste. Staff are really friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere is superb. There is food on offer, which I must say pairs really nicely with the beer and the Mojo dipping sauce is one is a must have with the chicken and chips. The Tapyard also holds music events every now and then.

We used to Tapyard and Skinners for our wedding reception and it was absolutely fantastic. They were so accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. They really made our special day even more special! I would give an extra star if I could! Thank you to the team! Highly recommended
