“🙂👍 Abel, Leo, and all the employees do a great job!“

“We came last minute on Father’s Day and let me tell you it was PACKED as you’d assume. We were taken care of by Kristen and she did an amazing job of making sure our food came out on time, our food was correct & our table had everything we needed. 10/10 will come back just to sit in her area. I know how hectic today could have been, yet she made our entire experience so pleasant. Thank you Kristen for making sure we were good. Keep up the great work!“

You could sample the selections for $2-$3 each.They had a vendor there that sells food if anyone was hungry.The location was in an industrial area. There was available street parking.“

“This place truly fits as a local neighborhood brewery/bar. Family friendly, many events throughout the year, food and of course the beer. Award winning selections along with other local brews. The hidden gem is the pizza they make on site! Fresh ingredients and I think the dough is also made in house. No matter what day you drop by, the crew there will greet you with a smile and make you feel at home.“

“LA’s greatest brewery and a lovely venue.“

“Well…. I give the servers high marks and the food was good, but the kitchen was so slow! We hit the hour mark and were just about to walk out, and the server finally came with out food. Beer was ok. The server was nice and comped our beer and soda. Still y’all. An hour for food is too long.“

“Had the great fortune of trying this Hazy IPA before meeting the owner Kelsey Grammer and watching him pull beer for a few hours. This beer is outstanding! it doesn't have that hoppy bite and has a refreshing citrus finish. Put simply? it's delicious. Looking forward to more amazing beers coming!!“

“First time here and learned that it's a new brewery in this venue. Timing was right for a Sunday! Music not crazy loud and a relaxed vibe. Lovely bartender helped me choose a great beer. Matcha Tart is refreshing! Will gladly come back to try other beers and also the food!“

“If you’re into kombucha (or just curious), Joimo in downtown is such a fun spot to check out. The owners are seriously passionate about tea and brewing, and you can taste that care in every batch—they make everything fresh each week.

They also offer weekend tours and tastings, which makes it more than just a stop for a drink—it’s an experience. Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking to try something new and support a local gem!“

“We love the annual Brewery Art Walk. It is a great chance to see some interesting art, various mediums.“

“We’ve been a vendor at Native Son with Pizza House, and it’s a great LA spot to serve at. The team is helpful and easy to work with, and the atmosphere feels upbeat without being chaotic. Guests are engaged, the space is awesome, and it’s a fun place for a pop-up night. We’d happily come back anytime.“

“French fries are my favorite food in the world and i can tell you this place had the best fries ive ever had by far, they were so perfect i loved every bite and the smash burger was really good to but the fries were definitely the star of the show (sorry no pic i alr ate em)“

“The Beer is good! But the vibes and the staff are Top notch! It’s a great watering hole where you can bring the kids and your dog and enjoy some brews and live music or loteria night. My favorite thing about going here is seeing the “house” cat walking around and greeting people and making it known that this is her territory 😂 bring her some treats! see you there soon! Cheers! 🍻“

“Great place to enjoy life“

Some places become part of your routine.

You stop by after work.
You order your favorite drink.
You catch up with old friends.
You meet someone new.
You celebrate birthdays.
You stay longer than you planned.

That’s community.“

“The mead is delicious! Burgers are pretty good too.“

“Came across the on a walk back from Venice Beach. Highly recommend.“

“This brewery was a real treat. Large space with several seating arrangements, great beer/cocktail selection. The wings were just OK, but the Beachwood Citraholic is truly a wonderful Westcoast IPA. Parking in the back and lots of TVs. Will definitely be back!“

“1st time there... absolutely AWESOME food.“

“First time and last. My wife didn’t like the burger. Tried for a resolution. Manager treated her like crap. We left right then. Total crap-show food-wise.“

“Customer service is paramount not only for me, but specially when I am around family. Our server Schaeffer is not only superv to Customer Service but has great personality that makes me feel truly welcome!“

“Great array of food options in a lively atmosphere“

“Pacific standard was great, awesome service and staff. The perfect place to celebrate my birthday.“

“We came for the beer and were super impressed by the pizza! I had three different beers and all were very good. An IPA collab with RIIP, the Mexican lager with lime (the Mexican lager without lime was better unless you like intense lime flavor) and a raspberry something beer (very good). Got the mushroom pizza (both pictures are the same pizza) and it was super good! Fresh mushrooms, with quality cheese on a mildly bitter sourdough crust cooked perfectly. Ate the lettuce on top like a salad and ate the pizza afterwards. It was so good!“

“I come to the Bonaventure Brewery once a year for a work trip and I absolutely enjoy the going to the brewery every single time! The boss and I stop by multiple times because we know the drinks, food, and service are amazing. Always surrounded by other interesting travelers from a variety of places and a great environment! Shout out to Rachel, Mila, and Noah! You don’t need to leave the property, food, drinks, pool access - go get it.“

“The hotel is top notch. The suites are spacious, clean, and high class. They keep renovating and making everything nicer. The employees are super nice and the food at The Brewery was delicious. I love The Bicycle Casino! Always a great time.“
