The Yard Brewery and Smokehouse, home to Yard Kings Brewing Co.
Visit our tap house bar in Morisset, serving dangerously drinkable craft beers and low 'n' slow cooked meats from our onsite smokehouse. Meat taster plates, loaded fries, nachos, smoked kransky dog and brisket burgers are just a few highlights from our mouth-watering menu.
Kick-back and enjoy the relaxed vibe with live music every weekend.
Looking for somewhere intimate and cosy to hang out? Venture upstairs to our adults-only area "The Deck", enjoy our range of brews and cocktails in comfy chairs with a view of over the brewery below.
Walk-ins are welcome and encouraged, so if your desired date appears 'booked out'. Don't be discouraged. Only half of tables are available to book in advance.

    The food and service is always good from The Yard and it comes out super quick. It is, however, a very hot place to go on a hot day with little to no air flow which unfortunately lowers the enjoyment of being in such a lovely looking environment.

    The brisket burger was one of the best I've had, pork ribs were great fell off the bone and the fryes were crispy. Nice selection of beers. Was almost full when we left, for an industrial building the noise inside is minimal compared to some other venues. Service was quick and friendly by the young staff. Will highly recommend to friends.

    Food was delicious we ordered the plate for 2 They ran out of chicken wings so they gave us more of the other items. The music was great except it was to loud unable to have good conversation because of it. But we did enjoy the afternoon
