Seven Mile Brewing Co

Seven Mile Brewing Co sits on Southern Cross Drive in Ballina, on the coast just south of Byron Bay in the Northern Rivers. A craft brewery and venue, it brings together house-brewed beer with a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere — the kind of characterful spot that's become a genuine favourite for a freshly poured local brew and a good time.

The appeal is that combination of quality craft beer brewed on-site, a relaxed and sociable atmosphere and a convenient Ballina location, ideal for a tasting, drinks with friends, a group catch-up or a fun afternoon. There's something special about drinking beer right where it's made, and Seven Mile's quality and welcoming vibe have clearly won over a loyal following in the Northern Rivers.

With a 4.8 rating from more than 350 reviews, it's clearly delighting its visitors. The beer range, any food, opening hours and any events vary, and a popular brewery fills up on weekends, so it's worth checking current details before you go — though for a freshly poured local brew in a relaxed setting, it's often just a matter of dropping in and seeing what's on tap at Ballina.
