My second time here on international beer day and it's really been a awesome experience !
Good food, good music, good decently priced beer and just an awesome atmosphere
You guys really injected life into this industrial space!
Came here with friends for an evening, went through the beer menu and tried the food, both fantastic with live music in the background. I'm from the UK and nothing like it back home...great and will return.
I recommend going here, their burgers were good,beer tasting was fun and I enjoyed the taste of the beer. The service was excellent at the venue.
Met a friend for the half price burger Wednesday and was suitably impressed. Nice spacious venue with minimal but trendy decor. The staff were friendly and efficient. Menu seemed to have a good selection and was very reasonably priced. I had the burger with bacon & feta as well as the fries and beer battered onion rings. Portion was big, filling and very tasty! I also had a cappuccino which was good & most importantly hot! Overall a very pleasant experience and I look forward to trying the food truck Fridays when there is live music.
My new favourite place to chill& have a damn good burger and a few beers.
We had the chilli poppers for a starter, it was not the hottest popper I've tasted, but it is one of the best I've had.
I hade the butchers block burger, which was super juicy and so tasty.
My boyfriend had the pulled pork burger, which was also great!
The atmosphere there is very chilled, i would recommend all to try this place out! Its awesome..
🙂 It has been a couple of months since my visit to Jack Black in Diep River but I'm still smiling just thinking about it.There seemed to be a mini birthday party celebration outside so we inquired if it would be okay if we moved inside rather and a very polite gentleman moved us inside to a beautiful "picnic like" bench,made of nicely polished wood.
The setting is stunning,so simple and clean. Everything is placed neatly and practically and I was fascinated by the huge barrels at the back of the room,which I imagined is where the beer is stored. The sitting is well co-ordinated and there is enough room to move around. I specially appreciated their stage setting,it is at an area where everyone can see and the sound is connected well enough to resonate through-out the whole place when an act is on stage.
We had the chicken wrap with a side of chips and it was delectable. They have a selection of beers you can pick from and they let you try a few different ones,I didn't have any but I made a mental note to try them all on my next visit because I'm definitely going back,the environment is enticing and the staff is very friendly and energetic it rubs-off on you and it makes you equally pleasant.

We visited Jack Black for my husband’s birthday and had the best time! The food was amazing, such a cool vibe, the only downside was that it closed quite early for a Saturday? Pity because we could have stayed all night! A must-visit brewery.
One of my favourite spots to come to on a Friday night. Beautiful rustic venue serving soul full food and good craft beer. On some nights they have a live band which serves as good entertainment and background music.
Great atmosphere, great beer and food (mostly) - was very disappointed with the chips and onion rings sides which were drenched in oil (very literally) as it arrived and as we'd bitten into it. My son ordered the chips and I ordered the onion ring sides but neither of us could finish our burgers as we'd felt so sick from the excessive oil intake. I was intending to stick around for a few more brewskies after the meal but this too was cut short by this unfortunate incident. My partner had the roast veg which was great-tasting and well presented...guess we'd just chosen the wrong side(s). Though I would suggest a quality check on these 2 sides, as I would imagine them to be quite popular menu items.
We happened upon Jack Black by chance and purely from doing a Zomato search! What a great find. This was just perfect for a laid-back sunny Saturday afternoon.
The atmosphere was vibey with a great live band and the service was super friendly. The food going past us looked mouthwatering so I really can’t wait to return to try it.
It might be pretty far from where I live but I will most certainly be returning for what is sure to be a great time!
I live in the Southern Suburbs, and anyone that knows me would know that one of my pet peeves is the fact that there aren’t enough quality eateries in the “burbs”
What that does mean, is that if you want to enjoy a nice meal and a craft beer, you are going to have to pack up your friends and family and make the trek into town or its surrounds. Now enter Jack Black Brewery, situated in Diep River. I was invited to their Quiz night, and what fun it was! Entry costs R50pp which includes a complimentary 330ml Jack Black frosty beverage of your choice.
While waiting for the Quiz competition to begin, we ordered the tasting tray to wrap our heads around what was on offer.
Our group couldn’t decide which was best as we all had different courses. We had the Butcher Block beef burgers, homemade burger patties with bbq sauce, bacon, rocket gherkins and feta always a winning combination. The Chicken Burger had caramelised onion and brie and then there was the Teriyaki Duck wrap which was superb. To say the portions were generous would be an understatement, the quality and presentation of all the meals was of a high standard and hard to fault.
The Quiz was fun and entertaining, and I suppose any time you are in a position to win free beer is always favourable.
Without a doubt my absolute favourite local spot, good beer, good food and 5 min from home….what more could one ask for !!
Jack Black beer has become legendary in only a few years and it was a natural progression to develop part of their warehouse into a pub. The area is simple and spacious but comes alive when the crowds arrive! I had a Larger while I waited for my Jack Black Burger which came with a mound of chips. The bun was fresh and tasty and the burger and chips were delicious. I noticed they use Tribe coffee but never had a chance to tase it. I will need to go back in a group, maybe end of year function.
