Depot Brewery Opens In Artarmon
Depot Brewery is a new 250-seater venue that has just opened its doors in Artarmon.
The large space mixes a luxe bar set-up with industrial design features such as exposed brick and open rafters. It comes complete with large-screen TVs for live sporting events and six 3000L fermenters that sit opposite the bar; a looming reminder that Depot not only takes their beer seriously, they brew their own.
The Brewery is helmed by award-winning brewers Ady Fitter & Ian Roxburgh, who apply their expertise to produce a high-quality lineup from a mid-strength “Ultra Crisp” lager, a fruity “Pacific Pale” Ale, a strong-but-balanced “IPA”, along with another nine taps all on rotation.
The venue serves a bistro-style menu that includes their house-brewed beer along with a selection of wines and cocktails featuring house-distilled gin and vodka. When it comes to the food, Chef Will Baldwin (The Butler, Bopp & Tone, The Botanist) has designed a menu that is equally delicious and approachable. With a distinguished 15-year career, Will knows what makes a good feed.
Depot’s menu features affordable pub favourites including a Chicken Caesar Salad, Depot Double Cheeseburger, and a selection of house-made pizzas including Classic Margherita, the delectable Vegetarian Supreme and the crowd-pleasing Peri Peri Chicken which features a harmonious blend of chicken, roast capsicum, Napolitana sauce, mozzarella, red onion, bocconcini and Peri-Peri sauce. Definitely one of our top picks!
A kids menu is available for anyone under 15 years old, including a variety of pizzas, fish & chips and chicken tenders, plus a choice of Ham & Cheese or Cheese & Tomato toasties for $8 available ‘til close.
Depot Brewery is the big brother to sister venue Buckle Cafe & Distillery, conveniently located right next door. Buckle provides customers with a more traditional cafe-style experience – inspired by classic Aussie cafe culture – featuring expansive drink and food menus designed to take patrons from day to night. While Depot is its more casual counterpart leaning more into Aussie pub culture with a mix of bar and dining tables.
There’s also a Happy Hour from 5-6 pm every Monday to Friday where customers can enjoy pints of house ‘Core Range’ beers, Buckle Gin, Buckle Vodka, and by-the-glass wine for just $9. And what better place to enjoy than in Depot’s beer garden? With an abundance of lush greenery and natural light, it is the perfect place to unwind.
Depot Brewery is a fantastic ‘all-in-one’ venue for Artarmon locals to enjoy. With its delicious food and drink offerings and laidback vibes, it truly has something for everyone.
