Craft Breweries are really taking off on the Sunshine Coast and the latest to open the gates is Terella Brewing.
Since the opening, we have visited more than once and both times have been very impressed with their establishment. Terella Brewing is quickly becoming one of our faves.
From the opening just before Chrismas they have been working hard to make it one of the best breweries on the Coast.
Is it worth visiting with family and friends? Read on to find out.
Where is Terella Brewing located?
The craft beer brewery is situated at North Arm near Yandina on the Sunshine Coast.
Address – 196 Bunya Road, North Arm 4561, Queensland.
Getting here must be via car or taxi because it is in the farming region and not near a public transport link.
See map for a location below;
To reach the brewery you need to exit the Bruce Highway at Yandina or Eumundi and follow the signs towards North Arm.
Terella Brewing Opening Hours
Hours of operation are as follows;
- Monday & Tuesday Closed
- Wednesday – Friday 11 am till dark
- Weekends – 8.30 am till dark
Is Terella Suitable for Kids?
Of course, it is! There is so much to do here for kids, they have scooters, table tennis, air hockey, fuse ball, giant Jenga, bocce ball, soccer, football and a range of card games.
And the kids can roam where ever they like because the brewery has hundreds of meters of super flat bitumen to ride on.
There will also be an interactive animal farm onsite so that kids can play and experience farm life.
You just kick back and relax while the kids go crazy outside. Can it get any better than that?
Terella Sustainability
The brewery brews its beers via a fully sustainable business model.
Using the latest advancements in vertical farm systems which is a revolutionary approach in helping our planet.
Advantages are;
- using less water to grow green produce
- re-injecting Co2 produced from fermentation back into the farm
- Optimized energy usage
- Reliable harvests
- Minimum overheads
Is Terella Brewery Suitable for Pets?
Another big yes! A lot of customers bring their dogs and just tie them to a post with a bowl of water.
Terella Brewing’s huge shed is on farmland so there is plenty of room for animals on a leash.
They have a brand new attraction out the front of the shed which is kids petting zoo. The petting zoo open and full of local animals. This is a great attraction for families but make sure you visit early to catch the action.
Petting zoo hours are from 11am – 12pm after this the animals disappear. They charge $6.00 dollars per person to enter the zoo.

Now onto the beers themselves. They have a huge range of unique craft beer brewed onsite for you to try straight out of the tap.
The bar serving area is quite large and displays each beer type in chalk with its description, alcohol content (ABV) International Bitterness Unit (IBU) and price ($).

They also provide toilets out the back of the shed.
The whole establishment is mostly wheelchair friendly but portable toilets will be an issue due to steps.
Our Terella Brewing Experience
Visiting the Terella Brewery is one of our favourite things to do on the Sunshine Coast. It is also a great excuse to head out away from the beach and go exploring the country.
A great day out is to incorporate visiting the brewery with exploring the famous Eumundi Markets on a Saturday.
The beer is super tasty and reasonably priced, they have heaps of seating but make sure you get in earlier than later on weekends because it is getting popular.
So much fun for the kids and they also have different food vans that deliver tasty meals and snacks.
Terella Brewing Verdict
So far it is our favourite brewery on the Sunshine Coast because it satisfies all our needs.
The place really gives off a kind of visiting your mate’s farm vibe. So relaxing and chilled.

- Great for kids & heaps of games
- Suitable for pets
- Great food

- Reasonably priced
