Steve of N21 left this review about Hicks Bar

Hicks Bar is the tap room for the St Austell brewery and is located above the brewery shop in the visitor centre. It’s open every day except Sunday and is more of a lunch time venue as it shuts by 5.30pm most days.
The main bar room has a modern decor with brewery paraphernalia and pub signs around the walls, and then there is a larger room beyond which has large internal glass windows overlooking a section of the brewing plant.
Decent food menu available but the main draw is obviously the beer and most of the St Austell range was available. I went for a paddle of their Big Job, Mena DHU stout and the Proper Black, black IPA, which convinced me to pick up some bottles of these from the shop below.
Prices in the shop were reasonable, but you can still pick up Proper Job and Tribute cheaper in the Supermarkets, so swerve these and go for the things that you don’t see in the shops.
