\nAt Wolfpack<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>they’re serving up burger creations such as The Big Bad Wolf, a beef burger topped with wasabi onion rings, jalape\u00f1os, pancetta and garlic aioli, served with sides such as sweet potato fries and hummus. Try the beer battered onion rings with wasabi aioli, or for something lighter, the tempura baby marrow sticks, or chilli-cheese fries with mayo.<\/p>\n
\nThe Wolfpack features an impressive selection of both local and international craft beers to wash your meal down with; beer connoisseurs should definitely try the restaurants\u2019 own brew, The Big Bad APA (American Pale Ale).<\/p>\n
\n
\nThe Foundry has a relatively compact menu, which makes choosing something to eat very easy. You need to try the grass-fed sirloin, egg and chips \u2013 the meat is matured for 28 days to ensure ultimate flavour. The ostrich fillet and springbok shank are also great local options.<\/p>\n
\nWash down your steak with a Naked Mexican from Boston Breweries an easy drinking beer with minimal bitterness. Brauhaus Weizen is a wheat beer brewed in Spain using German methods.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/b>At Society \u201cIt\u2019s all about good vibes: sharing good food, good drinks and good music, with good people\u201d.
\n<\/b><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>The Peri-peri spatchcock is a good choice if you like spicy food. The pistachio-crusted salmon is very tasty and would satisfy any seafood lover. If you are looking for a lighter meal that\u2019s also vegetarian you should try their famous zucchini fries.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/strong>A cool place to hangout and enjoy some of JHB’s finest brews.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Lots of tasty things on the go – try the popcorn chicken sandwich with candied bacon and cider aioli. Or for a bigger bite, the chipotle chilli marinated lamb chump with with soft polenta and edamame.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Steamworks keeps 10 local and imported beers on tap. Try the Orlando Cinnamon & Coffee Stout with your dessert. Or before you get there, dive into a Mad Giant Punk Hop American Pale Ale or three…<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/b>Gilroy\u2019s is owned by Steve Gilroy, a very entertaining and charismatic Englishman. You can enjoy live music in the beer garden while slowly sipping on your beer. Friday night is open mic night. Steven Gilroy\u2019s philosophy is to have fun and then others around you will also have fun. Gilroy\u2019s has won the most leisurely tourist destination in the West Rand award four times.
\n<\/b><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Gilroy\u2019s Brewpub has a limited selection of food but creates a truly intimate dining experience. Start off with Irish pub style potato skins to combat your initial hunger. If you want something bigger, try the gammon steak with mash and sauerkraut, it\u2019s meaty and delish.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Gilroy\u2019s has a selection of four craft brews to choose from, all of them are worth trying. Gilroy Serious is the strongest beer but relatively mild at 5.5% alcohol. It is a dark beer that\u2019s easy to drink that will surprise you with its flavourful palate. The Gilroy Favourite is a pale ale with flavours of summer fruits and caramelised honey.<\/p>\n
