Barney’s Tavern serves a wide range of beers, from classic lagers and Weiss to IPAs and ciders, offering both fresh craft brews and timeless favourites.

Today, the tavern proudly offers Port Elizabeth’s largest selection of beers on tap, featuring international favourites alongside a carefully curated range of local craft beers and ciders from South Africa’s finest microbrewers.
