This place is so freaking cool! Although, if you don't like scary things, death metal music and darkness...maybe not your place. The beer was way too nummy and the food was limited but SO FLIPPIN GOOD! The workers were friendly and super cool. This is a must see if you are anywhere near SW LA or Torrance area. Thanks PCB!

A delightfully macabre bar hidden behind an unassuming door, in a rather normal stretch of industrial road. Of course, there's a broken door outside that has "redrum" painted on it, so you should know you're in for a good time.The interior is dimly lit. I'm assuming it's a little bright for most vampires and long-term mummies, but it's dim for us humans. The decor is a riot of pleasant colors: underworld purple, bone white, and occasionally the glowing red of demonic eyes. Also, fine leather chairs. On writing this, I should note that the chairs are probably made of normal leather. Probably.Front and center is the bar. Off to the left is a big drinking room, surrounded by towering barrels of unknown fluids. There are labels, but I like a good mystery.To the left of the big room is a smaller, more intimate drinking room. A caricature on the walls stands ready to shout, "Here's Johnny." To the right of the bar is a very dimly lit movie theater. We arrived when Poltergeist was playing.Also, they have beer. I should have led with that.

Service is on point but the beer options aren't for me. Then again, all beer isn't for everyone. The venue is definitely cool. Check em out, you might like their beer.

Very unique brewery with excellent beer and good snake foods. The decor makes it one of the best hidden breweries to try.

The place looks unique. The brews are just as special.It's Friday. It's 10:30. It's listed as closing at 12. The beertender just passed the lounge telling everyone it's last call. ??? Finish drink go elsewhere. I'm not a huge stickler for something not being as advertised but last call an hour and a half before closing is lame :(

Amazing aesthetic. Great theme. Loved how everything was decorated. Food sucked, no flavor whatsoever. The first beer I had was okay, second was horrible. Location of this place sucks. Customer service sucked, had an unattractive worker flirting and staring at my boyfriend the whole time and even if she wasn't overly embarrassing herself, the rest of the customer service wasn't great either. Loved the theme and aesthetic so much, forgot how bad the food, beer, and customer service was the first time. But once again, the whole spooky theme and decorations, AMAZING.

I am surprised I have not left a review of this place yet. I love The Phantom Carriage so much, it's basically got my favorite things, Scary stuff and beer what a great combination. I will say that food menu has been a little lacking ever since Covid happened, but the food is still pretty good however the beer here and atmosphere are amazing. I am actually happy at the fact that it is so far from me, that way I don't end up going everyday because if it was closer I definitely would

The staff was so friendly and attentive. It was my first time since Covid quarantine Match 2020. Glad to be back. Oh I was sad to hear Lalo wasn't there anymore.

This place is definitely a hidden gem and we will be back as frequently as possible. It's kiddo/dog friendly on the patio and the vibe inside is a cross between a speak easy and kinda creepy lounge but really cool and unique. We tried three different beers (a sour, an IPA and a Smokey peach). All three were fantastic (and I do not like IPAs typically). We had the Smash burger and fries which were both really good. Looks like it would be a good place to hold events so we will see!

Super cool place with good beers. The food menu used to be better before covid. Now its very limited and meh. The menu on yelp is not current. Go for a drink and atmosphere not food.
Let's just say my whole party got sick after. The servers where pretty rude. Only one guy was ok. I get it. Nobody wants to work, but jeez they really don't wanna be there. I ask them to change the music, to some 80's I get they have a style. But the waitress answer was " nah this is our jam" dismissed my request. Let's just say. NEVE GOING BACK. Oh and parking sucks.

As of 3/5/2022 you can dine indoors only if vaccinated or show proof of negative Covid test if not, outdoors it will be. It was freezing and my fiends and I were dissatisfied because it felt lonely and flat. We kind felt abandoned lmao. They were nice enough to turn the heaters on but the vibe was not the deal. The main attraction and reason to go was to experience the amazingness inside that is promoted online so we were bummed but we stayed because we drove 45 mins to go. Just thought I'd mention my experience so other guests can be a little more informed as I'm sure other guests come down from further places and it wouldn't be fair if they were sent outdoors due to the lack of information not noted regarding Covid. I believe it's on their yelp profile but I think all their social should have that same information. We found out when we arrived. We were Also, not sure if there is parking on site so I parked on the street which I did not mind but there really wasn't any guidance for new guests. The place is kinda hidden so drive slowly to see the entrance. Staff was nice, beer was strong which helped to warm us up.

Been coming here for years....seen its ups and downs but seems to be they are getting back on track and slowly getting into the swing of things considering the fact they are still around during a pandemic. The food is great! The smash burger was absolutely mouth watering! Also glad to see they got Josh on board! That guy is Hella friendly and hilarious. All around great staff. All the girls behind the bar are very sweet and knowledgeable and I will keep coming back! Oh yea......the beer is excellent as well!

Looks like a very cool place to try, I heard about it through a few people who have been here before the pandemic, it sounded right up my alley.. I looked it up checked out there menu food looks awesome, drinks sound yummy and the decor is great!!! so today they took me for my birthday I was super excited but that quickly went away when they asked for my ID and proof of vaccine... unfortunately I can't get the vaccine due to heath issues They definitely should put this in there website, yelp or any other place they advise! ALL it says at the Door is you need to wear a mask , It literally had 3 people in the whole place and they have a outside area so it shouldn't be a issue... very disappointed

Fun night, bingo on the graveyard patio. Had the shepherds pie, little small but delish. Decent beer selection too.
