Impi Brewing Co, which is decorated with a Zulu warrior theme, was the first dining/drinking establishment to open in Victoria Yards, an innovative arts centre and urban garden in gritty Lorentzville. In addition to its excellent lager and pilsner, Impi serves respectable brick-oven pizzas from its lively, colorful bar.
