Typical brewery pub: busy, loud (when full), very good draft beer, varied cuisine ranging from traditional Piedmontese to modern (burgers, ribs, pulled pork), and also very good pizza. My special recommendation is the Sgabei, a small appetizer of fried yeast dough sticks wrapped while still warm in Parma ham or (even tastier!) with wafer-thinly sliced lardo from Arnad in the Aosta Valley. Great! And if you can't miss out on Franconian food: there's also a stinco, a pork knuckle, braised rather than grilled, with sauerkraut and dark beer sauce (and fries... they don't do dumplings here).
Reservations are recommended, especially on weekends, as the brewery is very popular with younger guests.
Six beers are available on tap: Bionda, a pale ale; Cruda - a cellar beer; Ambrata - a dark beer; Doppio malto - a double bock; Rossa – a dark double bock, and a wheat beer. Starting in November, a Christmas beer will also be available. All in three sizes: piccola – 0.2, between 3.50 and 4.50; media – 0.4, between 5.50 and 6.50; and one liter (11.- - 12.-).

It's been years since I've been back, and usually you're disappointed, but this time I was thrilled once again. The raw beer was fantastic, the shank equally delicious, and I was amazed by the pizza, which was very reasonably priced and excellent quality. It featured caramelized onions and tuna, simple but very tasty and well-cooked. It's a shame it's so far away for me.

The food is good, and the beers are obviously excellent. Probably due to the layout of the place, it's very noisy.
Always very crowded, and it's really hard to communicate with other diners. Reservations are essential, otherwise the wait is endless.

A must-visit if you're in the area, especially if you like beer.
The raw beer is a specialty, truly excellent!
Lots of burgers, but very little choice if you're vegetarian... it wouldn't take much to offer something tempting other than the salads.

Famous Menabrea brewery, traditional decor with plenty of seating, and a wide selection of dishes.
Fast and professional staff.

Having come to Biella for work, I couldn't help but try this historic restaurant. The atmosphere was evocative, like stepping back in time. Although I'd already been completely sold on it, I was thrilled once I'd tasted the historic Menabrea ambrata, the double cured meats/cheese platter, and, for dessert, the 360g Piedmontese Fassone burger accompanied by fries (the latter were average). Highly recommended, the only shame was that I couldn't chat with the locals due to the large number of customers. We'll see you again.

A great place to enjoy the brewery's draft beers, especially the raw beer. The meat dishes are very good, and the prices are average. Worth a try!

Locale vicino alla fabbrica e al museo della birra, naturalmente...
Simpatica la cameriera che ci ha servito, è stata molto attenta alle nostre richieste!
I taglieri di lardo e quello misto, sono stati molto apprezzati.
I secondi forse un pò meno, l'hamburger era giusto di cottura, l'esterno aveva la cottura media come l'interno, avrei gradito un pò più di crosticina, tagliandolo si sbriciolava, non del tutto soddisfacente il tris di filetti.
Molto buono il bunet.
Grande curiosità, avendo già provato altri pub/ristoranti di produttori di birra.
Locale molto accogliente, accanto alla fabbrica e al museo, una tipica birreria che la sera e nel weekend si riempie di gente.
Proposte tipiche della zona, soprattutto sui primi. Molta carne e tantissimi panini che variano principalmente per il peso dell'hamburger scelto. Ovviamente birre di produzione proprio e anche nei dolci la si può trovare. Negli antipasti qualche contaminazione estera.
Servizio simpatico e molto gentile.
