Big news brewing from Tap Social: the team is opening a brand-new venue in Spring 2026, right in the heart of Milton Park in Didcot.
It will sit within Signal Yard, the park’s newly redeveloped amenities hub, where the existing buildings have been cleverly reworked to create a fresh, sustainable space.
This spot will bring together everything people already love about Tap Social. Expect pastries and pizzas from Proof (already drooling…), a coffee shop, a Tap Social taproom, an event space, and a Brew School all under one roof. It will be an all-day hangout too, opening early for coffee, running through the weekends, and offering selected evenings of events and activities. Perfect for workers, locals and anyone looking for a place to settle in for a while. Corporate groups, stags, hens and anyone after a hands-on session at the Brew School will be very much catered for.
After the success of the first Proof Lates, the team are keen to experiment more with evening events, and the space this place has will make that much easier. There will also be a patio and green outdoor area that everyone at Milton Park can enjoy once the sun makes an appearance again.
Signal Yard will include more than just places to eat and drink.
Alongside Tap Social, there will be a post office, dentist, and other useful bits to make the area feel like a proper little community and a convenient one-stop spot for anyone working or living nearby.
The new venue will also crucially allow the team to expand the number of roles it offers to people leaving prison, giving more people the chance to rebuild their lives through stable, supportive work. If you haven’t visited Proof or any of the Tap Rooms yet, now’s a good time to get a feel for what Tap Social does best before the Didcot site opens.
