The name Ward’s dates back to 1922 when Ward’s Cordials made soft drinks for the local community at The Factory on Auckland Street in the heart of the Gladstone Region.
Fast forward 100 years in the future, after living abroad for over 20 years Michael Comley has returned to his home and has immersed himself in the Southern Great Barrier Reef region.
Excited by the rise of craft beer and with a total refurbishment of the old factory, Ward’s Brewpub was born! Ward’s is an authentic Gladstone brand that brews fresh beer on site, sells ‘best in class’ Queensland artisan beverages and uses quality ingredients for an enjoyable food and beverage offering.
Our brewing process and beer styles are carefully thought out with high standards and quality assurance being at the forefront. Our beers are complimented by our tasty lunch and dinner menu with an ever changing special board. We are the perfect venue for a catch-up with friends, corporate and private parties.
Being located on the Southern Great Barrier Reef, Ward’s honours the spectacular natural assets of the Central Queensland Region with stunning décor, thought provoking art, imagery and environmentally sustainable business practices.
Local’s and tourists alike can find common ground at Ward’s, go for a drink and enjoy a fun brewery experience.
Glad it’s our Beer!
Always seven Ward';
