Rye Waterworks Micropub

What a brilliant pub! It’s got such a brilliant atmosphere. Everyone is so welcoming who works there. And the beer selection they brew is fantastic. The hazy was absolutely delicious. Sat there for a good few hours taking in the sights. Will definitely be back.

The only CAMRA Good Beer Guide pub in Rye. Liza is not sure why as Rye is wonderful and full of great pubs.( might be my afterlife Heaven!) Stayed for two rounds as the beer / cider choice is superb. Ticked off three new breweries. Super pork pies and Scotch eggs. They encourage you to share tables. Some front outside seating. Like the idea of flushing the loo with Sharp's Doombar. All it is good for says Liza.

Scotch eggs and pork pies available. Delicious. Also many flavours of crisps. We enjoyed the Kicking Goat ciders. Great atmosphere.

A very cute pub with a good selection of local brews. The atmosphere was amazing and what a gem that we’ve stumbled upon!

Absolutely brilliant pub a must visit if you like a real ale. The landlord brews a lot of the beer down the road in an old waterworks, hence the brewery name. Pub is small, but Dave, the landlord, has turned that into a bonus. He will move people about and sit them together, so you have to talk to strangers. There are quite a few regulars, and they will chat with anyone. I defy you to leave this palace without a smile on your face. In fact, Dave will do his utmost to make that very unlikely Oh, and the beer is great and very well priced. I've been through the card over the last 2 days and didn't find one I would not drink again. Food is simple, pork pies or scotch eggs, so don't plan on dinner here, but that said they were both very nice and great to fill a little spot between beers.

This little gem is a must-visit! A proper cozy atmosphere, with friendly staff who are passionate about their local drinks and tasty food. It's the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a proper pint (or a delicious bite!), supporting local businesses at the same time. Highly recommend!

I read up on pubs before my first visit to Rye. This one l had to try, and I'm glad I did. A quirky pub where you are encouraged to share tables. No problem for me. I will come back later in the year. The manager has a lot of personality. Free WiFi. Outdoor seating also. Try it.

We were visiting eye meeting a friend when we stumbled across this fantastic little bar! Highly recommend, staff are very friendly and the cider! Best I have ever had! We ended up spending the afternoon and it has been a fabulous afternoon! If you visit Rue this place is a must to visit!

David just won another Camra award for real ale and in his style he gave 100% of the credit to his team. It's probably the most popular pub in Rye.

Great to see that this fantastic micropub has survived the Covid scare. Dropped by for a few pints again after three years, and it's as lovely as ever. Great local real ale & cider selection, very friendly service (this time by the owner himself, among others). A lot busier than when I first visited (they were brand new then), and as before, many of the decorative items and even pieces of furniture are also for sale. A great place to hang out, friendly patrons ... just great! P.S.: I once created this shop site and later told the owner to claim it. And he did. ;)

This was the last pub we visited on our recent day trip to Rye (06/12/2019). We got there around 17:30 and the place was very busy. The range of beers was amazing for such a small place and each half pint we had was absolutely perfect. Such beautiful beer in such an interesting and charming place. If I lived in Rye, I'd be drinking in here every night.
