WE’RE HIRING! JOIN THE STOMPING GROUND CREW IN COLLINGWOOD
Love good beer, great food, and even better company? We’re on the hunt for a Pizza Chef to join our team at Stomping Ground Brewery & Beer Hall in Collingwood!
ABOUT US
We’re a proudly independent brewery, built on the idea that beer should be for everyone. Inspired by Melbourne’s rich brewing history, Stomping Ground has been bringing people together over quality craft beer since 2016. Our Collingwood Beer Hall is a big, lively, and welcoming space where mates, families, and beer lovers gather to enjoy great brews, tasty food, and good times.
ABOUT THE VENUE
Housed in a converted warehouse, our Collingwood Beer Hall is all about big communal tables, high ceilings, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. There’s an open brewery where the magic happens, a leafy beer garden, and even a cubby house for the little ones. It’s the kind of place where everyone’s welcome—whether you’re here for a quick pint, a long lunch, or a brewery tour.
Stomping Ground was founded by craft beer pioneers, who wanted to create more than just a brewery—they wanted to build a community hub where beer lovers of all kinds could come together. And that’s exactly what we’ve done!
