Straddie Brewing Co

This is exactly what Straddie needed! We did the brewery tour which was very informative, personally I don’t usually drink beer, but with the tasting paddle even I enjoyed a couple!Great tour host, absolutely incredible food. Think high end dining at a pub and that’s what it felt like.Fantastic job everyone, we will be back!

Minjerribah (Nth Stradbroke Island) is home to one of the most beautiful Traditional Owner groups in SE Queensland.The Noonuccul and Goenpul people have lived here for over 30,000 years.The newest addition to this island is the Straddie Brewing Co.It is situated at Goompee (Dunwich) which is the islands initial entry and exit point when arriving from Cleveland (Toondah Harbor) or leaving from Dunwich.The Straddie Brewing Co. sits just behind the main stores of Dunwich, but is easily seen as it's a large white-ish building.The surrounding grassed area is awesome and incorporates a relaxed atmosphere where chairs. tables and even picnic rugs are provided for their patrons.The multi story building offers everything for the eyes to to look at and the nose to follow.Ground level, is the magic area, where the Craft Beers are produced, the second level is a more public environment where you can order your meals and enjoy the selection of their Craft Beers.The tables and chairs are comfy and inviting, then when you decide to venture up to the Rooftop area, this is a place where you can take in the atmosphere of the island and really embrace the outlook of Quandamooka (Moreton Bay). The seating arrangement allows for both a social gathering or just a cosy area that allows you and your +1 to just have some quiet time.It is definitely family friendly and the little JarJums (children) are also catered for. From my observation, there is no childrens play area, but I also didn't look for this.The toilets are really well presented and are kept very clean. There is disability access on all levels, and the seating arrangement allows for ALL patrons to be engaged and feel welcomed.We didn't have anything to eat so I can't provide any information on this.The beers are nice and refreshing, and they range from the standard Crafts through to the IPA, but has everything in between also. There is also a good selection of shelf spirits if you prefer this.It is a very clean place and the staff are really engaging and make you feel like you are an old friend.If you have a fury canine companion, then they also accommodate this on the bottom level. They provide dog water bowls for your pooch to drink from.Parking is varied, onsite parking is minimal, but there is parking all around the place, so it shouldn't be a hassle at all.Remember to hop into the Straddie Brewing Co. there on your way through to the other parts of the island and pick up yourself a carton of Craft Beers before heading to your Campsite or other accommodation and support a local brewer that would love to see you there and have a yarn with you.

You've got to check out the rooftop bar. Views looking back to the mainland are the best you'll find in Qld. Friendly staff, good music, great food and cold beer! Perfect for day trips to Straddie as it's walking distance from the flyer.

Fantastic views from this rooftop restaurant on-top of this great craft brewery. The food was excellent and beers very good. This adds another highlight to a visit to North Stradbroke.

A group of friends had an enjoyable lunch at the brewery as a pre Coronation celebration".We enjoyed the lunch and the beer was great. Very moreish.We were seated upstairs and had an almost perfect view out across the bay."

A breath of fresh air for Straddie. Amazing addition and will draw people from all over the Island. Gorgeous views, toilet fitout was a novel talking point, the handicapped access lift was appreciated by imbibed members of our party. Loved the artwork in the stairwell. Big range of on tap" craft beers plus a Sour and Ginger Beer. Fish of the day was superbly cooked in batter

Excellent beers. Excellent food. Friendly staff. Highly recommend the Mid Track Session Ale.
