Eglwys Brewis (Welsh: Eglwys Brewys) is a village in the Vale of Glamorgan in south Wales. It is located just to the north of the village of St Athan, south of Flemingston and northeast of Llantwit Major. Greenlands and St Mary Church lie to the north by road from Eglwys Brewis. The village consists primarily of residential estates which were originally built in the mid-20th century for service families stationed at nearby RAF St Athan. The estates are regularly used by driving instructors in the Vale of Glamorgan . Nant y Stepsau flows in the vicinity.

A Topographical Dictionary of The Dominion of Wales (1811) by Nicholas Carlisle said:

A Topographical Dictionary of Great Britain (1833) by John Gorton said:

"The EGLWYS BREWIS, co. Glamorgan, S.W. P. T. Cowbridge (173) 4 m. S E. Pop. 20.

Only a hamlet still in the early 20th century, Eglwys Brewis developed into a dormitory village with housing estates in the mid-20th century to accommodate service families stationed at nearby RAF St Athan. Most of the houses on the estates surrounding the base were sold off.

Eglwys Brewis lies within the Flemingston & Eglwys Brewis community electoral ward, being allocated three councillor seats to sit on the St Athan Community Council.

However, only half of Eglwys Brewis is within the St Athan ward as part of the Vale of Glamorgan county council.

Eglwys Brewis contains the St Brise Parish Church of St. Brewis and Bethesda'r Fro Congregational Church. It contains one pub, the Moonshine, formerly the Carpenter's Arms. The parish church, which became a Grade II listed building on May 18, 2002, is a small stone church dating to the 12th–13th century with 16th-century windows. It contains a square stone castellated bell-cot at the western end of the nave and a Norman tub font and inscriptions. To the east is RAF St Athan Golf Club.
