26 Best Gastropubs near Monterey Park

“Food is delicious and portions are generous. The beer selection covers a nice range of tastes and the off menu desserts are amazing. The ambiance outdoors is relaxing and refreshing with plenty of seating. The service is always warm and inviting. I wish I could buy one of the Brew t-shirts worn by the servers.“

“An excellent selection of Belgian and German beers. The 1809 Berliner style weisse and Duchesse Cherry were perfect on the outdoor patio.The frites were also excellent. Large enough to have fluffy interiors and crisp exterior. The wursts were juicy and cooked well. There are many different kinds for whatever more you're in.We chatted with (I believe) the owner about various beer styles and locations, and I mentioned how I miss German apflewein. He suggested we visit Alma's Cider and Brewery, which I plan to do in the future.Vegetarian options: Most of the wursts are meat based, but three of them are vegan. I recall seeing at least one vegan frites sauce (pesto). I did not inquire about kitchen protocols.“

“My wife, Sara, and I dined at The Proper last night. It was our first time there. I had very recently become aware of it on Yelp. We were treated very well by our server, Connor, and by another man, whose name we do not know. He probably was an assistant manager. We asked him about the history and the décor of the restaurant. He offered to have the owner stop by our table to answer questions he was more in a position to address. The owner, Rick, did come by and we had nice chat. Rick and his staff are terrific folks. And we really enjoyed the food. Sara had the chicken piccata and I had the jambalaya pasta. We enjoyed a bottle of Sonoma Cutrer chardonnay and the warm butter toffee cake for dessert. It was an all-around terrific evening. Sara wants to try the miso salmon next time and I will probably order the blackened shrimp tacos. Another thing that’s a plus is that we don’t eat red meat or pork - we’re fish and fowl only – and there are many items on The Proper’s menu that we can eat. And we may elect to dine in the bar on our next visit, which is really cool and charming.“

“Food was good but heavy! This is a loud restaurant and is good if you're wanting a bar style environment with food and drinks. Hence the name - pocha. One of the owners or managers was walking around checking on customers which was so nice. Overall, I enjoyed the food and service was decent but it was a little too heavy for me so I probably won't return.“

“Our group of six stopped by at Far Bar after a Dodgers day game. We sat right in the middle of the bar and were promptly served water and offered drinks and food. We remained at FB for several hours and sampled their tots, chicken wings, fries, pot stickers, and sliders. All the food was quite tasty, but their wings were stand out. I had a Moscow mule, which was refreshing, tart, and gingery witout being overly sweet. My friend raved over the Gold Rush cocktail and others agreed their drinks were well-made. The servers were on point and friendly, and made sure we had water during the entire time we were there. A nice spot to enjoy a good cocktail.“

“Just a nice place to relax and have good food.“

“Super friendly service here! The lady running the bar and register was chatty and fun and friendly. I tried their spicy vegan sausage and I liked that it was something they made in house. They have a few vegan hot dogs and you can choose your toppings. Tasted really good. Also got a yummy pretzel. I really recommend the chipotle aioli. Small parking lot available.“

“Great choice of beers and exceptional service in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Room to sit and relax outside with heaters and exquisite foliage. The bar is a great place to hang out and try out new beers.“

“Best Bar in Whittier!! Amazing bartenders!!“

“If you aren't going to Tam's during the Christmas season, you're missing out on your Christmas Carol fantasy. Period clad carolers take requests, cocktails are served in tea pots, the charm is endless. If you don't want to commit to a whole dinner situation, you can still feel the vibes by just going to the bar and having a tasty cocktail. It can get quite busy, so if you're dining make a reservation ahead of time, and if you're hitting the bar consider your timing.“

“Meet my friend for her birthday lunch and we had the place to ourselves....Our service for spectacular...Definitely get the "Diva" Martini...We will be meeting there again for sure...Can't say enough great things about this place....Parking: Great, lots of it & very close....“

“ITS A GREAT PLACE TO EAT,DRINK, AND LISTEN TO LIVE MUSIC 5 DAYS A WEEK!!“

“The best place in Dtla! Ask for Hiro, he was super amazing and kept our drinks full!“

“Every once in an awhile you have an unbelievable waiter and they make your entire week and perspective on life feel better. We just moved to town and had the pleasure of being served by Nikki. We love this place! The food was great the service was exceptional and we will be coming back soon.“

“My hubs comes here after work for a beer + bite during the weekday. It's a low key, local peeps, local vibe dive and he always leaves happy ? The service is attentive and prompt w no attitude. It's family owned so maybe that's why. Good, honest, hard working customers just grabbing a brew after work and families grabbing a bite at night ? I was a lil fancy on a recent Sat night + also fit in. They welcome all vibes ?“

“Very family friendly atmosphere and outstanding service. We enjoyed our dinner with extraordinary talented Mariachi!“

“The York is a no frills bar with good variety of drinks but my favorite was the Mother Earth Cali Creamin. Tastes like a creamsicle!The women wanted to try the Apple Pie cider but was sold out, settled for Apple cider in a can, and at 8% it didn't disappoint. Would come again to chill and hang out and try something new.We sis miss out on a live band but the music was decent. ?“

“One of the best gourmet burger in LA served as fast as a fast food place, an incredible selection of beers from all over the world, what more to ask for? As a regular there, I am always impressed and coming back. Only drawback is that the place is sometimes a bit empty which baffles me so I wanted to share so the place gets the crowd it deserves.“

“Very chill, relaxing spot with great food and service! Highly recommended!“

“It was good. I had a grilled Chicken Sandwich came with a sell it very good. My friend had the. Fish-and-chips and the fish looked like they were nice portions. I can't tell you how much it was. Because I was treated this time. The only problem I can think of was that the menu text was so small. I couldn't read it without my reading glasses.“

“Working so hard to stay open during these pandemic times. We owe them and their faithful help a lot!“

“This bar is awesome! They offer brunch specials on the weekend, as well as mimosas and delicious Bloody Mary’s. CK generally serves us and is super attentive, professional, and hardworking. This place has had staff turnover and sometimes they’re down to 2 people to make the food and serve the drinks; nonetheless, CK and the staff work hard to ensure everyone’s happy and their order is taken.“

“Great place! Good food and music!“

“It’s a nice bar, they have a drag show and it’s funny! We went there to play “Loteria” it’s like a bingo but with images, it’s a Mexican game. And it was super fun.We had snacks and the nachos were good but not the best, the salsa and toppings were not enough for the plate and the total amount of the chips as we usually have it.But I recommend it as a nice activity during the weekends.“

“I was craving fish and chips on Saturday. When we walked in there wasn't anyone to greet us. They only had two people one at the bar and one serving plus there was a big party in the patio. Since it was so busy we did have to wait a bit to order and get our food. My fish was amazing, and the burger was tasty. It definitely has a pub feel. There are high tables by the bar and booths on the side. Our server was running around, but still had a smile and great attitude!“

“Great food, drinks and service! And Shag Party Band!“
