50 Best Craft Breweries near Gardena

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

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

“Great local brewery that really focuses on the beer. So much better since they expanded the outside seating. Great food trucks/stands that come in, friendly staff. A bit “hop” heavy selection if that’s your brew, would like to see more lagers, ales etc but doesn’t take away from a 5 star review“

“I called Slice&Pint last night to order some pizza. Since it was 9pm, the guy said that they were not taking orders anymore for whole pizzas, but it was still possible to have some slices.
I ordered some and drove there right away.
When I got there, I added some extra slices and all the staff was really nice updating my order.

We reheated pizza at home and everything was great.
We got some cacio e pepe, pepperoni and carnitas. 9 slices for about 30 bucks. Highly recommended!
Sorry, no pictures. We were too hungry 🤣🫶🏻“

“Great brews and brushes events and delicious beers 🍻!“

“Awesome atmosphere and live music!“

“Great date night atmosphere! Great selection of beers! Lots of tables inside and outside.“

“Nice quiet place to relax“

“best pizza! great in-house bread“

“Such a great place with awesome beers, food and super friendly people. The owner took the time to come out and visit with us. Highly recommended. Had the brewberry blonde with some filet mignon fries. Thanks guys. Will definitely come back“

“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!!“

“Great beers, courteous staff, and dog-friendly“

“Popped in for a burger and a beer. Great atmosphere with chill background music and excellent bar & table seating. Beautiful spot. Extremely friendly service.
The burger and fries was okay. Disappointed that they say it's a 1/2 pound patty but this was not, it was barely a 1/4 pounder. It tasted fine, but was just very small compared to the menu description.
Again
It's a beautiful location“

“Best brewery in California by far! JUST GO!“

“This place has great customer service even during a packed World Cup game. This is our neighborhood bar and we’ve rarely if ever had a bad experience.

Disregard the previous review that was freaking out about the chairs. It happened right in front of us and the person was just there to look at their phone, not watch the game, not engage with the other patrons, nothing. It came off as entitled and sad. I’m disappointed to see them leave such an uninformed review“

“Went here during an Oktoberfest celebration and was a great space. Even though it was crowded was still plenty of room and was able to find parking in their lot. Fast service and good selection of beers. Definitely want to go back when it’s a little more casual but was very excited to have the first experience be during Oktoberfest.“

“Scholb premium ales has the best selection. They are dog friendly. corn hole, great music and TV makes this my first choice.“

“Good range of beers on tap“

“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.“

“Si te gusta la cerveza artesanal,comida exquisita y el buen ambiente este es el mejor lugar. I had to try it all! Shrimp tacos are truly delicious and the salmon chicharrones are out of this world! Que Mejor que acompañarla con una buena cerveza artesanal hecha en el local! Lighter shade of brown is one of my favorite beers, you have to try them all!! So good! Thank you Brown Soul Brewing, there is definitely soul pour into it all🫶🏽 we’ll be back soon!“

“As a regular who has been hitting the Torrance taproom since year one in 2011 Ive Been a huge fan of Smog City and they are still the best spot in Torrance for a solid pour. Their tap list is completely inclusive, making it just as easy for a beginner to find a gateway beer like Smog Czech Lager or Lil Bo Pils and for a seasoned enthusiast to find a heavy-hitting IPA like Amarilla Gorilla. Also, a quick shoutout to their new Mo-Del-Ish lager—it is honestly amazing. I’m crossing my fingers they decide to make it a year-round staple instead of just a seasonal drop! Honestly if you been thinking about getting into the craft game Smog City is you!“

“Johnny and Jorge made us feel like family. Great beers. Nice vibe to complement the vibe at the HB location. Now I have another amazing l place to go when in town. Love from Littleton Colorado!“

“It’s a pretty cool place, with a really good beer! I will definitely be back!!“

“Tap selection can’t be beat. Staff is friendly. Great snack options in addition to other food options that might be available depending on the day and time. The bathrooms are clean. There are games galore. We happened upon them while in the area today, but would absolutely make the 80 mile trek back that way just to visit this brewery again.“

“Like sour beers in the lambic style? This is the place you need to go.“

“Walked in and got a pizza and side of BBQ wings as a take-out order (you can order at the bar). Waited no longer than 15 minutes. Service was friendly. Food was enough for 2 people. Pizza was great and the BBQ wings were the best I've had in Downtown Torrance.“

“King Harbor has a great atmosphere to drink the BEST BEER IN TOWN! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Love this place, this is my first time here at Cellador Ales and had an amazing experience. They make tasty amazing saison, wild ales and sours. The quality of their Ales production is high at the top ? I didn't expect that I'm gonna find a place makes this style of Ales at this level. Highly recommend and of course I'll be back soon. Thanks Santos for an amazing experience.“

“Great vibes, delicious brews on our first time visit at Trademark @ the Enclave! Dodgers up on the screens in & out (super appreciated) positive vibes! Friendly service & inviting atmosphere! They ran out of the hazy morning haze during our visit but Pacific Vision was crisp & perfect & can't go wrong with the staple Codebreaker!! Enjoyed plenty of eats for the whole fam during our stay along with the brews my wife & I had! Awesome! We'll be back! Wish they had more brews from the LB location but no complaints here! We'll be back! Gooo Trademark & Dodgers!! Cheers!“

“Friendly service and delicious beer.“

“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!“

“Great vibes, delicious brews, friendly service, plenty of seating at Trademark LB!. First visit at the LB location. We've been to the Torrance location at Enclave which also had nice vibes but lacked the extra options on tap! Took a moment to find parking but glad we found one across the street. Had a 7th Inning Stretch & Perfect Circle & wife had a hazy in the Star Guide! 7th Inning was decent, Perfect Circle leveled up on the West Coast side! Codebreakers for me is really at the top though! Can never go wrong at any time! Wish the Dodgers were playing when we visited but the game was on later in the evening. I could tell this place would be rocking during a game! Will definitely be back and time it! Playoffs are around the corner!! Thanks Trademark and Cheers!!“

“I love the OG good time so I had to come by and check out the new spot. It looks great! Love the high cielings and yellow accent seats. As for drinks, my espresso tonic was flat but this isnt new as I've had this happen several times at the other location too. I wish this wasnt the case. The new location is also so hot! There are huge cieling fans but no AC. Other costumers were saying the same thing. It may have been because the France Vs Spain game was on and it was fairly busy but man was I sweating.

Id love to come back on a cooler day and try out the brewery.“

“Smog City’s West Torrance taproom is the kind of place you end up coming back to again and again. It hits that rare sweet spot between a relaxed neighborhood hangout and a beer list that always keeps things interesting.

The menu has real range. Whether you’re into crisp lagers, hoppy IPAs, or rich, full-bodied stouts, there’s always something worth ordering. They rotate in new stuff regularly too, so you’re never stuck drinking the same thing twice.

But the real reason this place is a standout is the crew. The staff actually cares. They know the beer, they’re excited to talk about it, and they make the whole experience feel personal without trying too hard.

It’s the perfect place to catch up with a friend, bring your dog, or just reset after a long day. Smog City West feels like the kind of taproom every neighborhood should have, but most don’t.“

“We had a few beers there and loved it. Simple hidden gem in the Gundo on a not well traveled side street off grand ave. Not big, (6 big tables up front) but great beer for $8 or so. Also, a nice back area for more private gatherings.

“Newish local place. Big selection of craft brews“

“We had such a great time at Five Point Five Brewing! We came with our 3 year old and 1 year old, along with two friends, and it was the perfect place for everyone. The food was great, the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and they even have a kids area where our 3 year old had a great time playing.

We also had the chance to meet Michelle and her family, which made the experience feel even more special. You can really tell that this is a family owned business and that they care about creating a place where everyone feels welcome.

Great food, great people, and a really fun family friendly atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!“

“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!“

“Salud, Enjoying Kershaws Wicked Curve.. Morgan Hill Ca.!!“

“Great food and service. The only drawback was the host didn’t see that the table needed to be cleaned and tried to make us believe that the stains would not come out but we were referring to the clear as day crumbs left by the precious guest. She finally went and came back to clean the table and the seat cushion that was full of debris from previous guest. Other than that, everything was great.“

“Really great food + specials and we had such a fabulous waitress we shall be back!“

“Great atmosphere and friendly people! Good Beer too!“

“Every thing is made from scratch, every few weeks, they have new specials and every thing is always so fresh and tasty, portions are ample, this is not bar food, so don’t let the name fool you. Happy Hour is excellent and service and cold beers is bonus!“

“Loved our first visit to Project Barley! The atmosphere was laid-back, friendly, and full of good vibes—the kind of place where you instantly feel at home. Huge shoutout to Zha for making us feel so welcomed and taken care of. It was our first time, but it’s definitely not our last. The beer selection? Top notch. Whether you’re into hoppy IPAs, smooth lagers, or something a little more adventurous, they’ve got something for every palate. Can’t wait to come back and try more!“

“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!“

“If you have some time to spare at the airport, this is a great spot to grab a quick bite. I ordered the breakfast sandwich and a parfait, and both were delicious. The breakfast arrived hot and fresh, which was a nice start to the day. My server, Cindia, was friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service. Despite the busy airport atmosphere and constant turnover of customers, the service was impressively fast. I would definitely stop by again.“

“Tremendous, upbeat staff. Very welcoming. Great variety of food and drink. Great vibe“

“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.“
