Shedshaker Brewing Company

A new pizza menu, recipes and ingredients has seriously stepped things up. Wouldn't go for food before, would definitely go again.

What a great community based establishment! Tasty pizza, standout homemade microbrews, and a focus on live music, all at great prices in a lovely setting with impeccable service! We spent New Year’s Eve there and it was a fabulous evening. Highly recommended!

Friendly, cozy atmosphere and lovely locally-brewed beers. Wine if you're so-inclined. Pizzas not half bad either!

First time we went had to wait 1.5hrs for the pizza next time l got my pizza and my partner didn’t. Never again!

Tasting paddle was delicious with my choices and the staff were very friendly and welcoming, highly recommended

A glorious brewery in an eclectic complex. Shedshaker has a chilled atmosphere, super helpful crew, and a great range beers clearly all made with craftsmanship and care.so glad we had a chance to stop off in Castlemaine and check this place out.

Such delightful and delish small pizzas and the music on offer is just amazing. Such a great place with amazing atmosphere.

This establishment is the best in town, the staff are super friendly, pizza are fantastic and the atmosphere with music is second to none. Always have a great time here. Thank you to all the staff and owners.

We waited at least 1.5 hours for our pizza. The pizza came and it was burnt as well. Reminded them twice for the pizza and they kept saying it’s in the oven but other tables that came after us still got their pizzas before us.
Paid at 12.50pm, it’s 2.24pm now and the pizza is still not here after being reminded twice and promised it’s in the oven twice.

Extremely disappointed with this service.

I’m usually forgiving of places — especially when busy. However, the food service was unacceptably poor. We ordered our food at 12.47pm (confirmed by checking our bank receipts) but got only 1/4 of the order 30 minutes later (one was burnt). We were told there was a delay for the other pizzas. Later, 2/4 of the order was delivered 50 minutes after. The final member of our group was told their pizza was delayed because the dough had to be made afresh and they had just missed the batch, but that they were aware 1 pizza was missing and would be onto it now. This would have been understandable if other tables didn’t subsequently get their pizza orders after this. We went to the front and asked about the final pizza and staff said that they were aware that this member had ordered a capricciosa and that this was in the oven now. Staff offered to give the pizza to us in a takeaway box or to give a refund (and revoke the pizza). An unacceptable option.

The final member of our group waited 1.5h for their order and at 2.25pm was told that they forgot to make the pizza. Again, completely unacceptable when other tables had eaten and left around us (and had ordered the same dish as the only options on this menu are pizza!).

Update: we had a conversation with the owner and they explained the issues they were having in the kitchen (they had new staff saying our food was in the oven the entire time when it actually wasn’t). In the end they gave us a free cheese platter, chips and a refund as compensation for the 2 hour wait and constantly having to come up and check in on our food. We informed the owner we had to leave this review, even though it wasn’t their fault, it was still incredibly frustrating.

Lots of beer options, and a great pizza menu, although the 10” looked a bit small for $18. The hazy pale was a bit off the mark in that it was not hazy and missed the mark. The holy grail was billed as a pacific ale again not quite there for me.

Broad beer selection made on location. Tasting paddles. Takeaway beer. Food, such as pizzas.

Great location, and good vibe. Recommend the Golden Strong Ale, Scotch Ale, Holy Grail and Choc Porter. Wasn't a fan of the Pilsner or Hemp.

Rolled in three minutes before closing and the crew were happy to serve us. Pizzas and beer were great but really appreciated the service. Thanks team

Top notch beer served by the nicest people. Incredible vegan cheese platter accompanied by a stellar variety of boutique beers and wonderful G & T s.
The perfect day out. We’ll be back asap!

Shedshaker Brewery was a real treat. Beautifully crafted pizzas that are to die for! I also loved their range of brews, the cloudy pale ale being my favorite. Well done to the Shedshaker crew.

Fabulous experience, beers were great but didn’t expect the super vegan options. Felt right at home and will be back real soon. Thanks for a great time

Great brewhouse with awesome food and good service. Thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing afternoon with dips platter and capricosa pizza. Both were super tasty and reasonably priced! Highly recommend for anyone looking for nice place to relax ot catch up with friends in the Castlemaine area. Forgot to mention great range of boutique beers on tap with local wines and other drinks available. Will definitely be visiting again!

Came in here to try some beers and have a bite to eat, the beers were lovely (had to buy a few six packs for home) and the broccoli pizza was delicious! Really good laidback vibe with lovely staff it was also great to see so many vegan offerings!

Seeing the pizzas
I was expecting flavours that blew my mind
But …. No
But I guess it’s different strokes for different folks

I’m all for supporting small businesses, but one thing I do expect from them is Customer Service.
Sadly 3 times I have supported this business, the customer service has been -Poor
No other-way to say it, but to say it truthfully
