Reviews of The Brickmakers
The pub itself is very clean, staff very friendly and helpful. But, the sound quality of the bands isn't very professional, alot of feedback with all 3 bands last night.
Great place for live music or just a couple of drinks with friends. Love the atmosphere, always really good and the staff are wonderfully friendly with a warm welcome for all
This has always been a fantastic venue & has a reputation for being one of the best venues for live music in Norfolk. Charley & the team who have been running this for many years have done a fantastic job and have brought some fantastic bands to Norwich. I have enjoyed playing here many times over the years & hopefully will continue to do so. Unfortunately this pub is now owned by Enterprise Inns who unfortunately are a disgraceful company only in it for short term profit...& they penalise Landlords for turning a failing pub around & try to increase their share of the profits despite the fact it is through the hard work of the Landlords & staff & not them. It's been a real shame & the ongoing story has been well documented in the local press. Onan encouraging note though,I do hear the pub is being taken over in january by the landlord of the Walnut Tree Shades....which also has a fantastic reputation for live music. So there maybe hope that this fine venue will continue to grow & thrive. I certainly hope so xx
Been to quite a few gigs here now, both in the main room and the smaller B2 Venue. Always had a great night and the staff are great as well.
Have lots of gigs on as well.
Great music venue, fabulous gig Graffiti club were massive must be the most under rated group on.the scene
Great venue for smaller bands. Good selection of beers, lager etc
Fantastic Venue for live bands, never been disappointed with the experience. Staff excellent.
Easy going pub with great music. Went to see the my chemical romance tribute band The Black Charade, awesome night. Nice alternative music atmosphere, I really recommend the place. I certainly will be going back in future!
First time I've ever been here loved the place saw a great band bar staff really friendly total enjoyable night
I went to see a specific band and had a great time. It was free to see them, the staff were pleasant and drinks reasonable ( non alcoholic). Will look to go again
Brickmakers has been a long-standing post for live music in Norwich, for many decades.
Hosting ticketed gigs, open mic nights and events for local colleges it is important to understand how many people this venue has impacted over the years.
The venue is large, with three separate stages in and outside of the building.
Drinks are reasonably priced, and the staff and very friendly and welcoming.
A fantastic venue to perform in as well as watch great bands. Staff always make you feel valued and welcome.
As a musician, I cannot fault the tech support, sound engineer is always knowledgeable and friendly.
As a spectator, there is always a great atmosphere and plenty of choice at the bar. Located near food outlets for when you need to go and soak up all the beer you've consumed.
One of my favourite venues.
Something fishy quality fishmongers
Fresh and tasty good quality products
Friendly helpful staff good priced and a wide selection of seafood and fish available
Useful that this Pub has a Cash for Clothes and a fish stall that sells lovely Cromer Crab. Photographed is the stall's opening times
Excellent pub and live music venue. Puts on some amazing bands, well worth a visit.
Love this venue, saw the counterfeit Brits again my favourite live band in Norwich. Awesome as usual well worth a look.
Saw the glamtastics here on Saturday lovely pub been coming here for a while
Went for a charity event, was brilliant. Will definitely go back for more gigs.
Always a friendly interesting place good music and drink prices are very reasonable
Great live music and friendly staff.
Enjoyed watching a few bands at this venue , especially Exit stage left .....
Music was vibes and atmosphere was perfect. Will come again.
Great music venue and bar with ale on tap 👌
Had a great evening with mates. Loads of live bands and staff were brilliant too.
Great pub for music probably the best music venue around.
Awesome place for music, local, national and all sorts. Especially rock/ metal and whatever. A very friendly place to visit with great hosts. Nice drinking hole as well.
My first time here, and it won’t be my last!! Loved it! Sophie (gorgeous fiery copper) made me feel so welcome, and relaxed, and her service was out of this world!! What a lovely little gem this place is, and now one of my favorites! Start to finish a lovely experience. I’ve ate in some of the most expensive restaurants in London, but the Brickmaker is up there with them!! Politeness doesn’t cost anything, and this place certainly lives up to that! Looking forward to seeing Sophie and and team again. Thank you so much!
Very Enjoyable experience with the live Bands & choice of different Ale's
Sunday afternoon in the brickies listening to the Lee Casey big band and my awesome wife Emma Hall singing.
Washed down with 2 pints.
Happy St Patrick's Day!
been out on nights out and played in bands .All staff great glab the managers were able to keep pub running still keep up good work girls hard work pays off sometimes .want good night out and see some good bands then pay brickmakers a visit .A big bonus if im playing there in a band
Nice atmosphere, live music
Superb pub thank you for friday night 12 august
Great place!
A varied selection of drinks and every music type catered for. Charlie is a legend and is always happy to help and very supportive.
I believe they now serve pizzas too!
B2 - amazing little spot. It’s like being in your own world. We hired this venue for a very sentimental event. The staff were continuously helpful and nothing was too much bother.
The Brickmakers and B2 are real gems, get down here to support them or we will lose another incredible live venue.
One of the best venues in norfolk.
Award winning live music venue. Most nights are free entry. Nice, clean surroundings with a large garden.
Great pub and music venue!
Wow wow what a great place to hear superb live music. THE BLOODSHAKE CHORUS.
Best music pub in Norwich hands down. Safe and well managed, great to see the local music scene supported so well as well as having bands from all over the UK!
Wonderful venue. Staff were polite and gave great service. Would totally recommend. There's a car park. Clean and tidy venue.
Fair prices, lovely staff and noone got punched in the car park
Absolute FANTASTIC music venue. A must for muso's. Something for everyone from bands playing for families on a Sunday afternoon to heavy rock in the evenings. Lots of brilliant tribute bands that are too of their game. The staff are friendly and welcoming. They sell ear plugs for anyone who like me suffer tinnitus. Dance floor too. Amazing sound and lighting. A great venue. Use it or lose it. With so many venues closing down this place has had there fare share of fighting to stay open. So folks please support music venues. Especially this one.
What a incredible venue. Your loss if you don't go.
Great night with the AC/DC Experience 🎸🎸🎸🤘🏻
I went to their Bank Holiday charity fest yesterday. It was AMAZING. They raised a good amount of cash considering only up to 300 could attend. A fantastic night. Well done to them!!!!
What a fantastic night watching Guns Or Roses here great venue for live bands.
Kool venue, friendly staff, great atmosphere. Drum platform too small though.
Great place to go for a pint or to see some live bands. Has a great general atmosphere and friendly staff. Toilets are always clean, which is always a plus when you're popping down the pub. Would definitely reccomend the place.
Also it's along one of the main bus routes (first buss 11), or about half hour walk from the city, so easily accessible. They do have parking, so handy if you're coming by car also.
This is definitely not my favourite pub, but it's not terrible. I only go if we want a round of pool or darts, or there is a good band on. As for the atmosphere, it lacks a bit. The beer is reasonably priced and they have a decent variety. There are nice little nooks with sofas in which makes it alright for a cozy chat, but again still lacking in atmosphere. Great for a gig or a night with mates around the pool table, but I wouldn't go here any other time.
LOVE LOVE LOVE Best live music venue in the city. Great staff, safe atmosphere, excellent musical line ups. Usually free entry.
A fantastic music venue. The place to go in Norwich for excellent live entertainment. Very covid friendly. Book your table now.
Great little music venue set into the side of The Brickmakers. Staff are always lovely.
They had natural born grillers doing a pop up in the beer garden, so all was good. Good beer, good music and the best burgers around.
The city's favourite live music venue.
Brilliant staff are always happy to help and serve you quickly.
Charity fund raising days are excellent here and a highlight of the year.
Car parking is available on site with wheel chair access from the car park into the rear beer garden or straight to the public house.
A smaller music room is also available, so as much music as possible can be performed together and with the garden in Sumner, it is a three stage-venue!
The Brickmakers is on the bus route to and from the city, with a cash point machine nearby as well as a superb fish & chip shop, kebab & burger bar and a local newsagent. Food vans are often serving on gig nights here and an outside seating area is incorporated at the front of the venue.
Please adhere to any notices about smoking or noise levels as it is opposite a residential area, so be respectful upon leaving.
Of recent times, this pub was almost lost to the city with owners hiking the rent, forcing the passionate staff to take a pay cut to be able to keep it open, for all people and all genres of music.
Hats off to then all.
Support the most iconic music venue in Norwich.
Excellent music venue. Rocking atmosphere. Friendly staff. Good choice of drinks and nice pizzas.
Great music venue, no fancy frills just good honest music! So glad its recently been saved from closure, keep on doing what you are doing guys, it works. Reasonable bar prices, friendly staff, looking forward to more visits this year
Went in this evening to host a quiz night as our usual venue let us down at the last minute. Pat and her team were very welcoming and went out of their way to help us. Beer is well kept too and they have the loveliest dog I have seen in ages
Awesome staff, awesome venue, awesome gigs, not much more to say really. 👏
Great pub, great music venue...what more would you want?
Great pub with function rooms 2 stages for performances great staff.
Great venue supporting live music. Good range of drinks great atmosphere.
Excellent entertainment and well kept pub
Good live music pub....the beers good aswell.
The seating is a bit uncomfortable but I can put up with that for the music.
Very good place for live music. Loved it
One of our favourite gig venues! Staff are amazing and guarantee a friendly welcome! Cracking PA set up for bands and events on every night!
One of the few venues in Norwich still devoted to live music, with bands/artists playing at their B2 venue pretty much every day. Staff are friendly, drinks are reasonably priced, there's a pool table and karaoke on a regular basis too.
Good Premier Inn in a central location for exploring Norwich, friendly staff and a good restaurant and selection of beer's,
One of the best places in this city
Have always liked loved the brick makers, they always get in great acts to perform! They have great customer service and has always been an amazing atmosphere, whether you're the pub side, or the music venue side! Have performed here in past many times as well and have been treated greatly from the staff.
It does what it says on the tin. A music venue which is done very well with the added bonus of polite staff and clean gentleman's toilets. What more could you ask, well kept beers I hear you say. They have those too 😀
My favourite pub! Great live music mainly rock and metal, 2 stages and good drinks. Recently been refurbished and has good seating in the main pub. The b2 has no seats
Probably the best music venue in Norwich. Supports new talent and hosts great bands too. Excellent stage and sound and a great atmosphere
My first time there and I absolutely loved it , great band friendly staff and great place overall
Great live bands!
Love the Brickmakers. Great vibes. Great staff. Great bands 5 stars
Great music and not too expensive drinks. Only given 3 stars as I was served by a very rude female member of staff who got my order wrong, blamed me and then I had to pay again to get the correct drink! Other than that a really good rocking place!
Great venue, reasonable prices. Great music. Friendly staff.
I went on the Monday open Mic night. As a keen supporter of live music it was really great to see the Next generation of performers coming through and terrific that the Brickmakers gives these youngsters a platform for them to nurture their talent.
Great place great bands great sound friendly staff
Good music venue.
A great local music haunt. There's always something happening in the evening and you can get local Cromer crab. If what's on out front doesn't catch your fancy around the back is the B2, a more alternative venue where local promoters and bands out on DIY events.
Great live music venue pub, has parking, pool table. Not the cheapest for draft beer a pint of Guinness will set you back about £4.30.
Absolutely fantastic venue. Great staff, brilliant atmosphere, and awesome bands - saw Meatloaf tribute band there and they rocked...!!! 🤘
Fantastic to listen to a new group ,playing there first gig live and what a great friendly audience there.
Great place, not one but TWO music venues, showcasing a fantastic range of bands and artists
Bar a bit limited but staff very friendly
One card machine shared between two bars is a little frustrating so bring cash if you can
Not bad. Not very populated. They have couches which I like but there were 2 bands playing at the same time in different parts of the pub, sitting in between was a bad id3ea :)
Amazing place pub with nice environment and atmosphere inside ,nice music and entertainment nice staff and service highly recommend everyone!
Fantastic pub for entertainment with plenty of music layed on every week to suit everyone atmosphere is brilliant when plenty of people attend these music night's.
Great pub for local rock bands(and other types of music) with very lovely staff.Full of lots of friendly people.Very welcoming place.I've made lots of great friends here.Highly recommend this pub!
Brill place, good bands, excellent atmosphere.
Great place to see more intimate gigs, good selection of non alcohol.beers for the designated driver.
My only criticism would.be the toilets, really not nice.
Great atmosphere, regular live rock music, large dance area in front of stage. My favourite music venue🎶🎶. Love it!
Bands for brickfest were awesome. Venue great. However, standing at the bar for 25 minutes without being served lead to an early end to the day :(
Always busy and a great atmosphere. One of the only true music venues left in Norwich. Long live the BM!
First time visited, loved it. It is a great venue, nice friendly staff and ideal for live music.
Great live music venue and very friendly staff
Excellent, friendly staff, if you're looking for live entertainment this is the place, also mostly free entry, can't get better than that, enjoy.
