The Doncaster Brewery Tap is the home taproom of Doncaster Brewery, a small converted-shop bar at 7 Young Street pouring the brewery's own beers alongside rotating guest ales. It's an intimate, roughly 60-capacity grassroots room: live music plays in the upstairs room every second Sunday from 4.30pm, with a calendar that also takes in folk nights, acoustic music meet-ups and even Sunday cheese buffets. Open Tuesday to Sunday, it's a friendly, real-ale-led spot at the smaller, community end of Doncaster's live scene.

DoncasterAbout the night
Doncaster Brewery Tap is a small, friendly bar in the centre of Doncaster with the brewery working behind it - a few minutes' walk from the railway station, Cast theatre and the Savoy cinema. There is no jukebox, no sports screens and no games machines, so the room is built for conversation and acoustic music.
The session
An Open Folk Session in the main bar on the last Saturday of the month. Traditional and acoustic players are welcome to join in, and you are just as welcome to sit and listen.
