This place is fantastic. Spent three days and nights there a few years back when in Poznan for a football match (Manchester City). Superb beer brewed on site. One of the best bars in Europe.

This place is a rare find. An upmarket bar that manages to be both stylish and welcoming. It’s a working brewery too. Situated in an old tenement building on the Stary Rynek from the front it doesn’t look particularly special. Go inside though and you’re met with a choice of four venues. A bar on the left an upscale restaurant on the right and straight ahead a grand staircase at the top of which lies a large drinking room where the copper vats take pride of place. At the bottom of the same staircase is a cellar bar with a slightly more edgy vibe. To be honest of an afternoon I found it impossible to get past the bar where I could smoke to my heart’s content while supping a half-litre or two of the potent 9 Pils Honey or Wheat beer which they brew on the premises. At only 9 zloty a pop it seemed a bargain considering the surroundings and ultra-efficient service.The staff themselves were friendly and always had time for a chat in English or a chuckle at my dire attempts to speak one or two Polish words. They even managed to make sure we got stools at the bar during a very busy Friday night when we arrived late and the place was packed. Definitely recommend you drop in for one or two if you’re in Poznan. Bravo Brovaria.
