Blackbeard's Crafts

places/ChIJizEkU3G7woARbItwaxgvKv0/reviews/ChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnTUNnbG83ZzNBRRAB

There are many beer establishments out there. So how does one stand out? Does it have a wide variety? Is it catering to beer people? Is it having a unified theme? Really there are many different things that make a good beer store and thankfully Blackbeard's has all these and a lot more. Highly encourage you to swing by and see what you can find. It's worth the visit,

I’m sure the beer is great but the person working in their store denying me any help when I got locked out of my car when I simply asked to use a a rack from their shelf to open my door and I would return it instantly. His attitude towards me about it saying that his boss wasn’t there and there’s nothing he could do just seems like absolute BS very terrible customer service as I was definitely going to buy some beer.  Any way.  Zero stars for being kind or supportive to one of the locals.

Even if it wasn’t pirate themed it would get 5 stars. Always have a variety of fun alcohols stocked and each member of the staff I have encountered has been kind and patient. Patient because most times when I am checking out I see another thing I want. Never felt rushed either.

places/ChIJizEkU3G7woARbItwaxgvKv0/reviews/ChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnTURBbU5IQU9BEAE

Great place to shop for wine and liquor.  They have an eclectic inventory of Japanese sake as well as tasty beers.  The decoration is also very fun.

places/ChIJizEkU3G7woARbItwaxgvKv0/reviews/ChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnTURJaTlpN1RBEAE

Been to many beer stores across the country but this one is probably the most legit. Which speaks volumes to whoever does the buying because beer only takes up half the store and the place is smaller than a corner market. Tallboys, single cans, intriguing bottles, mead, kombucha, cider...it's all there. Just don't come looking for typical domestic bs and you won't be disappointed. Literally every other store can satisfy that need. Come to this place for an experience. No two visits will be the same.

Alchemy Craft

Place was closed when I went the first time but this time I got there when it was open and poppin! It was me with 10 friends and we got 4 pitchers with four different beers!! The pizza and pupusas to go with them was a perfect combo too.

places/ChIJ81LFciHRwoARHKKYjaipoxw/reviews/ChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUMta3B6QTR3RRAB

This place is a wonderful compliment to the entire BLVD MRKT concept. All good food needs great drinks, right?

They have an expansive variety of beers on tap. Whenever you visit, there is always something new to try. The samples are helpful, but the expert help is the best. In my experience, I have always been able to get answers to my questions and great descriptions of their offerings. A stop here will definitely put a smile of satisfaction on your face.

places/ChIJ81LFciHRwoARHKKYjaipoxw/reviews/ChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUQtczZUa1NREAE

This is my favorite Tap room. They always have GREAT beer.

Bringing great breweries to your local neighborhood since I can’t always go out far.
Every Bartender is very knowledgeable and give really good recommendations!
Such a cool hangout place for beers and food

They always have cool events such as tap takeovers and wine Wednesdays I usually find out by following their instagram

Cheers!🍻

I got the Mexican Lollipop because I love Mexican candy 😅. I got it with the rim and while it was tasty, I didn't know the rim was extra and it was pretty expensive for the amount of alcohol there was.

Service was great. The staff members were really nice and took the time to go through the different beers they had.

There are some tables inside but a lot more outside because it's located inside the Blvd Market, which I really like. There's street parking around the market.

places/ChIJ81LFciHRwoARHKKYjaipoxw/reviews/ChZDSUhNMG9nS0VQNjFtcjJwMi1ycFRREAE

Been here so many since they opened and they are a gem in montebello. Excellent beer, service and atmosphere. I will always come back here. 🙌

Audio Graph Beer Co.

places/ChIJCdS17cjHwoARJaPoZPIDJnQ/reviews/Ci9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT21ac05HZ3dMUzFVU1RObVYweHZUMDQwTVZaTVRVRRAB

Audiograph is a hidden little oasis downtown where you can get a cold beer from a friendly face.  You'll never have to wait long to be served and you won't have to fight anyone for a table or a seat.  They have special events some evenings (speed dating, stand up comedy, etc) but otherwise the environment is simultaneously relaxed and vibrant.  They have a decent variety of beers and they're all good.  Check out the seltzers if you want something a little lighter.  They don't serve food but they have never minded when I've brought in takeout from other local businesses or food trucks.

Special shout out to Christina and Dom, some of our favorite servers.

Don't miss Audiograph if you're downtown!

places/ChIJCdS17cjHwoARJaPoZPIDJnQ/reviews/ChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnTURvdXVpLVNnEAE

This brewery is very family-friendly, offers great parking, and has friendly staff, making it a welcoming place to appreciate these well-crafted beers. I enjoyed a classic German-style pilsner called LARS, which features a crisp malt profile and a balanced bitterness. I also tried LA Riders, a West Coast IPA with vibrant citrus and tropical fruit aromas!!

places/ChIJCdS17cjHwoARJaPoZPIDJnQ/reviews/ChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSURuck91NHNBRRAB

A solid brewery in downtown LA with a great and chill vibe.

There’s a solid selection of beverages and lots of board games for socializing. A great spot to bring your friends.

I’d definitely come back here for a craft beer or other social events.

I visited Audio Graph Beer Co on a recent trip to L.A., and I was seriously impressed. It’s rare for me to enjoy every beer at a brewery, but every single one I tried here was fantastic. The variety, quality, and craftsmanship were top-notch. On top of that, the staff was incredibly friendly, making the experience even better. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming—just the kind of spot you want to kick back and enjoy a great beer. Highly recommend checking this place out!

I came this past Sunday for complimentary yoga by Audri and it was even more amazing than I’d imagined! The class changed my whole day— and this place is a well kept secret. It’s so charming, and the people who run it are great. If you go, you’re likely to meet them too 😊

places/ChIJfaolCWLHwoAR-o-J0fVtOLc/reviews/ChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUR2MmVqa1lBEAE

We are biased (we’re visiting from Athens, GA) but we love the Creature LA taproom! I’ve been here for trivia and to simply enjoy the patio on a nice day — the vibes are comfortable, just like in Athens. We love it and would recommend to others looking for a great place to hang and drink good beer.

places/ChIJfaolCWLHwoAR-o-J0fVtOLc/reviews/ChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSURIdk1yN2V3EAE

Nice place overall. I tried two IPA's, the Tropicália and Bigger Dreams. The Hazy Bigger Dreams is better, I would recommend. The surrounding area, not so good, but great vibe inside the plaza it's located in. I will return...Cheers!

Great selection of beers! I love the location with the spacious patio. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The staff is friendly and helpful. Definitely worth a visit if you are in DTLA or in LA area!

places/ChIJfaolCWLHwoAR-o-J0fVtOLc/reviews/ChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUNOaEszU0dBEAE

For sure five stars. From Athens, GA, Creature Comforts values quality ingredients and good customer service. A standout in LA, where the opposite is generally true. CC pours 5oz drafts, too, which is awesome. I tried the Classic City, Goed and Bobo, and Winter Trees. All excellent. Recommended. Worth the mission compared to most LA breweries. GO!

Tirebiter Brewery

I ordered the filet and asked for medium rare. I got what was probably skirt steak cooked to well done. Maybe I should have known for $25? The other food was good, though! Also, the beer was delicious, the atmosphere was laid back, and they played great music. I would come back (and order something else).

places/ChIJaTIQh4HHwoARIneRlUMZUw0/reviews/ChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJcmhwZkNPLU1YeEJnEAE

Stopped here before a show at BMO Stadium. Parking was easy! The Hana Honey is probably my favorite beer from any brewery, soooooo good!! The Shoyu wings and fried pickles are delicious!! Totally worth coming for food alone but the beer options are also very good. It was empty when I arrived which was surprising after trying the beer and food.

places/ChIJaTIQh4HHwoARIneRlUMZUw0/reviews/ChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUNLamJyOUx3EAE

Really glad they're open! Great service and great beers. Out of all of them, their pilsner surprised me the most. Out of all the hazy ipas being produced by everyone, it's really nice to find a fantastic lager that anyone can drink. Don't get me wrong, I love hazys but the fact that this place produces a superb pilsner speaks volumes to their quality! Highly recommend! Take the expo or a bus to get here!

places/ChIJaTIQh4HHwoARIneRlUMZUw0/reviews/ChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUMxdGN5RWtnRRAB

fyi to anybody planning on coming here the beer list is on the smaller side and the beer percentage is also on the lower side. i think the highest percent i saw was a 6% which in no way is a bad thing or a knock to them but we were looking for more options and stronger ones. other than that, the service was great and the waitress was very attentive. i'd visit in the future to try some of the food i saw on the menu which seems like this place is more of a date night so i'd be sure to visit under different circumstances. i'd also note that the restroom was extremely clean. lastly, the beer was good and there was really no complaints about this brewery.

Monkish Brewing Co.

places/ChIJD_mtNa1K3YARHX7kr7pPjp0/reviews/ChdDSUhNMG9nS0VKRFlfc0xjcDhiVDlnRRAB

Monkish has delicious beer! First visit here was just what I needed. Staff were welcoming and very knowledgeable. Their service speed was top notch and very attentive. I wish the tap list was a lot bigger, but honestly I attempted to try everything and I failed plus got drunk. Totally worth it, each beer was unique in a phenomenal way. Their inside was wide open and comfy place to chill, but the outside was the best. A random food business was set up outside the patio fence, they had amazing tacos. This is one of my favorite places to chill before hitting up the airport. Overall if you love beer come here you won’t be disappointed!

By far my favourite brewery in California. Big call I know. Excellent beers on tap, super friendly and helpful staff and a great space to sit outside in the sun, what more could anyone ask for?

Some of the best beer in LA (heck, in SoCal)! The prices are a little high, but it’s always worth it. They’ve added some great seating options outside, making this a great place to hang for a bit and enjoy the beer fresh.

places/ChIJD_mtNa1K3YARHX7kr7pPjp0/reviews/ChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSURIcy0zdnZ3RRAB

This place is a must visit for anyone that loves hazy juicy IPA’s.  They are now in my all time top 10, maybe even top 5 breweries.  I sampled a couple and brought some others home.  All were highly rated on UNTAPPD and did not disappoint.  The location is easy to get to and they have indoor and outdoor seating areas.  There was also a pizza truck there when I stopped by.

places/ChIJD_mtNa1K3YARHX7kr7pPjp0/reviews/ChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUN2bHRfMHFRRRAB

My fiancé and I grew up in the area and even though we're living in Santa Monica now we still frequently make the weekend drive for the best hazy IPA's around. This place is relaxed, has great food trucks in rotation (Highlights: Felice Catering Friday Pizza, Xijuana Tacos Dorados, and Alitas Jalisco Wings), and pumps out fresh beer every week. Stop by, have a couple beers on the patio, and bring some home to your family and friends! Shoutout to the friendly beertenders Clint, David, Matt, Selene, Stephanie, and Jose!

I always look for Champaignon Eats when I go... a PHENOMINAL all vegan mushroom based pop-up... delicious! The Three Weavers brewery hosted it this time, and it has great beer, great staff, and is right in the heart of my hometown, Los Angeles CA! I'm not even vegan, but every time I get the alert, I try to come through! Dog friendly, great food & great times.

I recently visited, and it’s quickly become one of my favorite local spots. The venue is spacious, with plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors, perfect for enjoying some fresh air. There's a food truck on-site if you get hungry, which is a nice touch. The staff was incredibly friendly and informative, always ready to offer recommendations or answer any questions. Most importantly, every beer I sampled was excellent, and I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

This brewery is a couple of miles from the Forum, SoFi, YouTube theater.

Small indoor area, but there's plenty more seating outdoors.

Plenty of parking.

Two restrooms.

Beers were good. I had the Expatriate, a rice lager (forgot the name), and a seltzer; my husband tried a stout.

We'll come back whenever we attend another concert.

Trivia on Tuesdays at 6:30 pm! Recommend getting there about 20 mins early since seating is limited for indoors and gets packed pretty quickly 10 mins before.

They have an outdoor patio too, but you can't really hear well from there, but you should be able to play still since the trivia is done on a phone.

A good selection of beer with fun space themed names. It's near SpaceX so it fits. They also serve six beer flights here too so a great way to sample their brews.

On the weekends, they do some fun michelada style slushies too! Have to try that out soon!!

Parking was descent but the beer selection is great and they have a big selection of flavored beers and IPAs and they were better than expected, beer tender was very helpful and friendly, clean and very modern look inside and outside they have a nice big patio with a grill and cook if you want to buy food, so overall it was a great experience for me and I enjoyed it here too so I highly recommend this spot, oh and the music was great too no 🧢

Very cool brewery in the arts district, vibes are on another level. Drinks seemed reasonably priced, staff was chill. Parking can be a bit hard to find depending on the time. Open area with outdoor and indoor seating. Lots of space to hang out, including two pool tables inside. The brewery seems to be involved with the local community and will often host events like food trucks and makers'  markets. Highly recommend you check it out if you're in the area!

Frogtown offers delicious beer. I enjoyed all of them on my flight. I was  surprised by the Frog Claw and the Painkiller. I'm an IPA lover and I'm not too fond of fruity or sweet beer. I think these beers can be hard to pull off but Frogtown succeeded. If there was any sweetness, it was very subtle. Frogtown is kid friendly and they have a lunch truck. The food was my least favorite thing and I did not enjoy their nachos. However, the beer is so good that I will  not let the food prevent me from returning. I highly recommend this brewery to beer aficionados. I also recommend it to folks that are not too enthusiastic about beer but are willing to give it a try. Oh, and the service was awesome.

I would definitely recommend this place. The service was great and our host knew everything about the menu.

There was plenty of parking (on the street) and lots of seating options. This place has lots of room for big groups, but can still feel private for a date.

It is handicap accessible and has tables that are easy to reach and tasteful.

The beer menu was fun and they had a few spritzer, wine, and NA options.

There was a decent food menu too.

We went here on Thursday for lunch and had the place all to ourselves. That said, I could see this place filling up fast as soon as people punch out from work each day.

A great stop to enjoy a bite to eat and great beer.

Found this location when searching for breweries in the downtown area. Super glad I found this gem of a brewery a short walk from the bustling of downtown and even a shorter walk from Union station. The brewery is located in a less traffic area of L.A. which provides some what of a peaceful place to enjoy the dining experience with friends or family.

Bar food is quite good and pairs well with whatever beverage you choose. Our party ordered the cheeseburger, hotdog, fries, and chips with queso. All the food came out at the same time and was presented nicely. Taste was what you expect of delicious and flavorful greasy bar food. I did notice that there are healthy options such as salads.

The beer was great! Tried the IPA and the pilsners. Served cold! Foam is just right. The IPA citrus was satisfying on a warm day. I learned all beer is brewed here. During our visit I notice the fermentation tanks were being cleaned out by. It was a nice conversation point and we enjoyed the ambiance.

Plenty of seating indoors and outdoors but during peak hours there maybe standing room only. We arrived on a Saturday near 7p.m. and was lucky enough to find a party to share their table. Service was awesome. Staff like Andy were welcoming and suggested what beers to try. Can't say enough great things about this place. You can also buy to-go packs of your favorite beverage. Price is what you expect for L.A. Beers are priced comparably with any other brewery you may visit.

Okay, okay. The beers are internationally known. Sure, sure, sure. But, the bartenders. Hella amazing pours! Perfect infinity pour on the first hazy I ordered followed up by a super solid heady pour on the next. All this AND filled me in on beers coming up as well as where the water was. Just badass service to go with amazing beers. Highly recommend. 👏

Had I not been driving, I would have binged a little more on the cold beer too! Little spot just around the corner from the stadium is worth the drop in! Trust.

Hipster spot for sure. May return, parking is easy always something around the park.

Tucked away on the side of a busy road you can find this lovely brewery. They have a pretty wide selection of ciders they bring over from their cider house and some great variation of beers.

The food vendor on our visit was a pizza shop. The charcoal crust was pleasantly delicious we all enjoyed it and talked about it all weekend. There are indoor and outdoor seating options. We really enjoyed how mellow it was on a Thursday after work.

I just got back from Benny Boy Brewing and it was pretty fun! This place gets the whole relaxed and fun atmosphere spot on. This is marketed as a brewery, cidery and backyard beer garden and it does it all justice. It feels like you have walked into the perfect place to just sit and have a good time with friends, to relax after a long day or just enjoy the magic  of being under the stars.

Starting with the drinks, you can order a pint of beer straight from the tank, or if you prefer something different, you can order a cider from the barrel. I got both and they were spot on. The choice is vast and you can tell that they are passionate about what they are brewing here.

The pop-up vendors they’ve got coming through are pretty good. It’s a bring your friends kind of place whether you’ve got a small group or a full on party of 40. The space is huge, open, and for some reason, it feels like your own backyard, only better.

If you are in LA and looking for a place to sit, drink and just be, then look no further. It’s better to take an uber because the parking is pretty bad. It’s also not the nicest neighborhood and parking is limited.

Solid brewery in Lincoln Heights! We went to their annual apple fest and got to help them press their apple cider and tasted a bunch of it. Lots of cider and beer options as well. Valet parking was $15 when we went

I really wish I could split this review between the beer and cider sides of the house, therefore I rated a 3 to bring the average. The beer side is not worth it. Just go to Highland Park brewing up the street. The beers were not good and the main lager was skunky. The ciders though.... damn, quite nice. I'm a beer drinker so I favored the brewery but the few at the cider house were really nice. I'll come back, but only have the cider!!!

Total vibe and of course chicken 💩 bingo! My favorite ciders on the planet — namely the devils umbrella always a must.

The bartenders are quick to acknowledge you and are able to give you back your card after they start a tab. That’s very convenient since some people forget their card at venues after they’ve had a few. Got to try a bit of the fish and chips dish and it was good. Lots of people on a Friday night. The only thing I didn’t like was that they kicked us out of the outdoor patio around 10pm even though it was busy, full of patrons.

places/ChIJbxSpVTnGwoARTMstXgkwO8o/reviews/ChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnTURRMF9PRXdRRRAB

During our trip to the Arts District, we stopped by this spot for a few drinks. I had been here many moons ago and remembered they had a full bar, so I was surprised when we ordered two mojitos and saw them poured from a handle, similar to a beer tap. That was a bit disappointing, I was expecting a freshly made cocktail.

On the bright side, we ordered the ground beef nachos, and they were delicious. There were a few tables reserved for a party, so we sat elsewhere, but eventually, the group ended up taking over part of our table. The host was incredibly kind about the situation and even offered us baked goods and cake as a gesture for the inconvenience.

Overall, it was a memorable experience. I just would’ve preferred a handcrafted cocktail over a premade drink.

This was my first time to Art District Brewing. I really enjoyed the games and the outdoor patio. Great place to relax with friends and have some drinks & food. Parking is great because there is a parking lot right next door which is hard to find in DTLA. Would probably return when I’m in the area.

places/ChIJbxSpVTnGwoARTMstXgkwO8o/reviews/ChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnTURJekltUzhRRRAB

3 stars
Parking's a pain but I got lucky with a spot right around the corner. Pulled up Saturday night and the place was packed...real loud inside, but they got outdoor seats if you want peace. Ordered the double cheeseburger and fries, beer was smooth, burger was just okay. Table was sticky like it hadn’t been cleaned in days. Staff? Nowhere to be found. If you're here just to drink and vibe in chaos, it works. But if you want next-level bar vibes, there’s a better spot down the street.

places/ChIJbxSpVTnGwoARTMstXgkwO8o/reviews/ChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUMzcWVxR2Z3EAE

I had some time to kill, and this spot was the place to stop!
Great beer, food, and service all at the perfect price.
I had the classic cheeseburger with fries, coleslaw, and a few delicious beers!
Definitely recommend it and will have to go back for the burrito!

Great place for family outing. Comfortable for kids. Food was good. Ribeye sandwich was delicious and I don't give 5 stars easily. Service and atmosphere was cool. Give it a try.

places/ChIJ7eb9UV3AwoARCgGKZfWt9JM/reviews/ChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnTUNvMi1Ha0Z3EAE

It's fine and busy. The beer selection was great and I wish I'd had time for a second. A lot of it is table service so you have to find the tables for that vs. ordering at the bar. The parking lot is tiny so just find a spot on the street between others, no problem.

places/ChIJ7eb9UV3AwoARCgGKZfWt9JM/reviews/ChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUNSdTRqYzZBRRAB

Obviously came here for the beer but stayed for the food and vibes. The bartender was awesome, really asking the right questions to recommend a good beer. The mango one was shockingly delicious. He also recommended the fried avocado tacos and WOW thank you sir! The fries with pulled pork was disgustingly good, along with the pretzel which is hard to mess up. Really glad I got a chance to stop by here on my trip to LA.

Came for lunch on a Friday. Plenty of seating inside and out. We were there with a large group, kids included. The seating outside under the shade sails was great because the kids could move and play. Server was good and handled a large food order and a variety of drink orders well. The food was above expectations and left everyone satisfied and happy. Nachos were great, garlic fries, barbacoa fries (and even the regular) were great. Burgers, tacos, and the all veggie sandwich - great. Everyone that drank enjoyed their beers. We were there for at least two hours and never felt rushed to leave. Great place.

Nice brewery. Reasonable beer prices. Nice Happy Hour! Ample parking. Food is expensive and portions are large.

I was really confused by the mini fork that I was given.

I ordered nachos and they portion was too large for lunch and 1 person! The chips tasted burnt. Everything else was good.

Firestone Walker Brewing Company - The Propagator

Firestone Walker Brewing Co. is a must-visit for beer lovers. They’ve got some really good brews—honestly, some of the best I’ve had in California. You’ll find their well-known staples on tap, but what really stands out are the limited releases brewed at The Propagator. Always something new and interesting to try.

The space itself is great—plenty of room to hang out and enjoy a few drinks without feeling cramped. Bonus points for the gift shop, which is one of the better brewery shops I’ve seen. Lots of cool merch and take-home options. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area!

places/ChIJnX1lYI66woARvRO9DS21pdI/reviews/ChdDSUhNMG9nS0VLaTduN3JLcVppSTVnRRAB

Amazing place! One of the best chicken sandwiches and smash burgers I’ve had in the LA area. You MUST check out the store as well for some of the coolest clothing / accessories. Grant in the storefront was so helpful finding sizes and recommending his favorites. Baxter was our server and made sure our lunch was perfect! Will definitely be back

Loved it here! Huge outdoor space with tons of picnic table seating and umbrellas, huge indoor space with plenty of seating. TVs inside and outside playing sports. I drank the Hazy IPA and thought it was great.

Fantastic, kid-friendly brewery! Fantastic drinks and delicious food with a wide array of options! Had a large group with kids and had plenty of room. Fast service and very tasty food (see pics). Got fish and chips, fish tacos, and a kids Mac and cheese. Friends got a salad with shrimp and schnitzel sandwich. All delicious and so tasty with fresh and delicious beer.

Firestone Walker is located at a convenient location, and parking can be found in the back. There's a scooter hub out in front.

The Brewmaster is the Chef's take on a  Margherita Pizza. It's still neopolitan style, with a nice thin crust with slight char in certain areas.

The tomato sauce is balanced, not taking too much attention from the stars: the cheese and the toppings.

Thyme and basil are both used to compliment the smoky flavors of the tomatoes. The smoked flavor is what makes this pizza special.

Karl Strauss Brewing Company

places/ChIJi2n_QrTHwoARkgY9DE5o8q0/reviews/ChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnTUN3c01YUGhBRRAB

A brewery located in downtown Los Angeles that has both casual dining options and a laid-back feel.

Plenty of open seating. I like the couches that you can also sit and relax and have a beer. I noticed a large conference room area. During my visit everything was really clean.

The only downfall of this brewery are the flights are way too expensive compared to just a pint. I paid $15 for a flight of four that are supposed to be 4 ounces and some were actually quite less. It's unfortunate because flights are typically were you figure out what you like to drink. I recommend just going with the pint which is about $8 and guessing which beer you may enjoy. With a flight of 4 and a pint of beer and an order of fries it was about $37.  The fries were good and paired well with beer and casual conversation.

Overall it was ok for one time visit. The surprising cost of the flight is the reason I won't come back.

Thinking of Salmon salad for lunch. Went at this restaurant for chatting and at the same time it was lunch time. Nothing too heavy but I really like my Salmon salad. The hummus appetizer was good as well. They offer vegan too if you prefer it or the old school way.
Good place for lunch, drinks or dinner . Service was good and quite busy when I came in for lunch.

Great spot in downtown to buy beer and drink a beer while watching some sports! Ordered the chicken sandwich, it was pretty good, and the staff was very friendly and helpful with any questions. Overall, great experience!

I was in the area and was hungry after a workout, so I check it out.

Customer service was cool and by the bartender, even though I got to self seat near the bar. I had the mixed organic salad with chicken and side salmon.  This salad was probably one of the best salads I’ve had for its style.

The chicken was tender and the salmon was cooked perfectly. An amazing protein packed after workout meal. I didn’t expect it to be that good but on my list for top salads of all time. Had that sweet and tangy taste coupled with the fresh greens. The proteins made it best.

I’d definitely come back here again to try their other menu items.

Never visited their locations, but I order them once a month  and their steak doesn’t disappoint. It’s tender, it’s rich, and the zucchini/fries complement it perfectly 👌🏽. I just had their Wilshire burger and it was sooo perfect!

We got the vegan dumpling soup, garlic noodles with tofu and pad thai brussel sprouts - it was delicious. The service is great, ambience is lovely and they have a good selection of beers and cocktails! Def going back for more!

Relentless Brewing’s main location is way down south in Temecula, but the Highland Park taproom is awesome! Perfect spot for Sunday brunch, after work drinks, or weekend fun. The Korean BBQ Bao Bun tacos are great!

Great food and drinks! I would have given five stars, but we were asked to leave at 9:50 PM, even though the posted closing time is 10 PM. Most places allow guests to finish up if they’re still chatting — especially after ordering food and drinks.

@Relentless, I’d recommend honoring your posted hours for future guests.

That said, I definitely recommend the Lost in the Tropics sour ale — super unique and delicious — and the Chicken Adobo was excellent too!

This was a great Sunday brunch date we had here. We enjoyed a few tasty drinks along with some good dishes. I loved their ube french toast and Japanese breakfast sandwich that was good to the very last bite. Also their bulgogi eggs Benedict is a great item to order. I really love this menu. There's some more items on the menu I'm eyeballing for the next time and I'm forward to it.

First of all they need to pick a lane at what their theme is. Is it modern, is it Polynesian, is it a brewery? We were out of towners and when we went there they said are you here for trivia night? We said no. He said I can’t sit down here because we’re really busy for trivia night. He led us upstairs and said you can have any table against the wall. The rest will be for trivia because we’re busy. We got that you’ll be very busy. We were up there alone. I felt like a child on time out. We both had a side salad which had a couple of carrots, and arugula and super salty soy sauce dressing. My husband had the crusted ahi tuna he said it was okay. I had the club sandwich. It was a single layer of greasy buttered bread with a strip of greasy bacon and piece of avocado with one piece of a burnt chicken thigh when I say burnt that was an understatement it was so burnt I bit into it it was like tough grizzle. I was grossed out! I asked for pepper and the poor guy that gave us our plates handed me two paper peppers like you get in a to go sandwich shop and that’s all they had. The server was so sweet. She even looked at and said that’s not good. I will take that off. I felt bad for her because she was running up and down the stairs and told no that’s fine. She did anyway. Only good thing about that place was the server. Sorry I didn’t  get her name. Btw, the beer was very good. Go for the beer not for the food.

This review is specifically for the kitchen. Do better.

The food is mediocre at best.  Old, half rotten salads, brown avocado.. is extremely common. The hummus is so bland it tastes like cardboard. The burgers and fries are extremely salty. The artichoke dip is soupy. They often run out of ingredients or the oven is down... I could go on..

The beer selection, atmosphere and people can make up for so much..

The kitchen needs to get their act together.. asap.
