Sample a pilsner, porter or ruby ale at Bierfabriek

Bierfabriek

Medieval Centre & Red Light District


Bierfabriek's Pure pilsner, Nero porter and Rosso ruby ale (plus a seasonally changing variety) are brewed in these raw-concrete surrounds and best accompanied by its signature grilled chicken served with a hefty portion of fries and mayonnaise (or just help yourself to the in-shell peanuts that abound on the tables). Reserve to guarantee a table at busy times.
