♻️ At The Brewery, we know that recycling isn't just about doing it—it's about doing it right. That’s why our ongoing partnership with is so important: not only do they handle our waste, but they also help us educate our team on how the system really works.

Bywaters support us across all waste streams, managing our compostable waste, general waste, mixed recycling, and glass. Plus, they’ve provided us with an in-bin compactor that reduces the volume of waste on-site, making collection more efficient and environmentally friendly.

Recently, some of our team visited their impressive Lea Riverside facility to understand exactly how waste is processed after it leaves our venue, and how we can all do better at the first step: separation.

Here are a few helpful reminders to make sure our waste ends up in the right place:

🥗 Compostable items - Our food boxes, disposable cutlery and cups are compostable, so they belong in the green-labelled bin, not in the mixed recycling.

🧃 Mixed recycling - This bin is for items like paper, metal cans, cardboard, and plastic (check for plastic recycling codes 1, 2, 4 & 5).

🗑️ General waste - Anything that can’t be composted or recycled goes here.

Big thanks to the Bywaters team for showing us around and for helping us see the bigger picture 🌍

It’s , and our pork sausage rolls get a lot of love — from clients, from the team, from anyone who tries them. So today, we thought we’d let you in on the recipe.

Ingredients (Serves 8):
600g pork sausage mince
1 small onion
10g fresh thyme
Zest of ½ a lemon
1 sheet ready-rolled puff pastry
1 egg yolk, for brushing
Aioli to top (optional)

How to make them:
1. Finely chop the onion and fry in a little oil until caramelised.
2. Mix the pork mince, cooked onion, thyme, and lemon zest.
3. Shape into a log, wrap in cling film, and roll to tighten.
4. Lay the filling on the pastry, remove the cling film.
5. Brush one edge with egg yolk, fold the pastry over and press to seal.
6. Trim excess and press the edge with your fingers.
7. Brush the top with more egg yolk.
8. Bake at 180°C for 30 minutes or until golden.
9. Cool slightly, slice, and top with aioli (optional).
10. Serve and enjoy!

They’re simple, packed with flavour and never last long once they’re out of the oven.

Last week we travelled to Portugal with our carbon-neutral wine supplier to visit the vineyards and cellars of - one of the country’s most iconic producers 🍇

The journey took us from the green hills of Vinho Verde to the steep slopes of the Douro Valley and the sun-soaked plains of the Alentejo, where we explored the estates behind some of the wines you’ll find on our drinks menu at The Brewery.

Like our previous trips to Rioja and Tuscany, this trip was part of our ongoing mission to connect with the people behind the wines - understanding their practices, philosophies, and sustainable approaches helps us make informed choices about what we serve at your events.

Big thanks to Liberty Wines and Sogrape for hosting us - saúde 🥂

We're not fans of wasting stuff, especially not food 🥕

On —and every day—we work with to source beautiful surplus produce that might otherwise go uneaten. Not because it’s not delicious, but because it doesn’t fit on supermarket shelves.

This spring/summer, these items show up throughout our menus—including in dishes like our beetroot tartare with orange egg and katsu chicken with roasted carrots.
