Words by Romesh Cruse

An old gas converter turned local hangout right in the heart of Abbotsford.

Live Music: Bodriggy features an eclectic mix of live music and DJs, showcasing brass bands, soul, disco and vibrant Latin-inspired sounds. With a regularly evolving lineup, every night is a different adventure!

Famous for: A commitment to supporting local talent. Bodriggy is not just about the brews; it’s about nurturing the Abbotsford community. With sponsorship of local events, gigs and exhibitions, the brewpub embraces the arts and music scene, creating a vibrant space where creativity thrives.

Infamous for: The quirky charm of its former life. Once an Auto LP gas converter, the space still carries echoes of its past, where the only thing being converted now is your taste in beer. It’s a conversation starter that adds character to every pint poured.

Often considered a staple of Abbotsford’s bustling Johnston Street, Bodriggy Brewpub is everything but your average watering hole. With its unique blend of influences – think New York subway meets Melbourne warehouse meets country tavern – Bodriggy offers a delightful mix of styles that sets it apart from the crowd. 

Accommodating up to 425 patrons, this expansive yet vibrant social hub is the perfect place to grab a beer paddle and sample some hop-forward brews while an eclectic range of live music soundtracks your night on the town. If that isn’t enough to tempt you, the venue itself features vintage-style timber panelling which is complemented by painted brickwork and exposed pipes, creating an inviting ambience.

From craft beers to cocktails on tap, the drink selection is designed to cater to everyone’s tastes while the brewery tanks loom large and shiny at the back of the room. Furthermore, the space is dog-friendly and you might even find a pooch lounging while their owner dances under Bodriggy’s twinkling disco ball. 

Whether you’re relaxing in a plush booth or having a boogie until close, every visit promises a memorable experience that embodies the spirit of Abbotsford.

Come for the beer, stay for the vibe — Bodriggy welcomes everyone to join the party!
