50 Best Beer Bars in Los Angeles

“This place rules. Cheese plate was unique and delicious — fed three of us. Charming glasses suited to each type of beverage. Big variety of drinks. The blue walls, the radio, the tiny miniature desert scene under the window?!! The vibes are immaculate.“

“The food was amazing. The sweet potato was something I never had in my whole life. I have been to 39 countries for work and have eaten so many foods and I have never tasted anything close to it. The aburi salmon was delicious as well. However the star of the show: Our server Nic. He was one of the best most down to earth servers I have ever had in my life. He was patient, recommended the best things on the menu including the sweet potato. And my glass of water was never empty. You would think going to a trendy restaurant that maybe there would be a stuck-up atmosphere. But no all the servers and waiters were extremely friendly. Although the sweet potato is not something I had before in my life, I think Nic was one of the best servers. I got. Although pricey it was worth any penny. We'll be back in a week.“

“go here! you won't be disappointed. Tell Tom some Okies said hi!“

“This place was wonderful! We celebrated my fiancé’s birthday here, and the staff went above and beyond — they even gave us the best booth in the house. Multiple team members wished him a happy birthday, which was so sweet.😊

The food was to die for! We had the Caesar salad, Brussels sprouts, burrata, Margherita pizza, and Funghi pizza — everything was absolutely incredible.

We’ll definitely be coming back. Thank you so much for making the night extra special, Wildcrust staff!“

“great atmosphere and welcoming“

“I came to work from here on a Friday afternoon and enjoy happy hour. $2 off wine, $9 for house wine, and $6 for beer. The wines were refreshing and the atmosphere was a great vibe.

There was free WiFi and plenty of seating. And it's about a 10 minute walk from the metro.“

“Everyone at Lawless is a pleasure to work with. We host a weekly game night on Mondays and they always have the best food trucks and excellent brews (seasonal and standards). You can’t beat the laid back atmosphere. DOGS are allowed which makes it an even cooler place to just come hang out, meet friends, play games, or even do work. We love LAWLESS!“

“🐅🐅🐅🐅 yum yummy.. crying tiger so good“

“We had Uber drop us off before a concert so we could eat/drink and walk to Dodger stadium. This place was so much cooler than we could have imagined.
Punk rock blasting over the speakers. 👨🏼‍🎤
Dodgers baseball on TV. 🏟️
Really cool memorabilia on the walls. ⚾
Amazing food. 🍔
Delicious beer. 🍺
We had the Caesar Wrap, Bird Bites and Old Bay Tots 🤤
Needless to say I ate too much and felt like a giant slug at the concert.
The place isn't real big so prepare yourself to squeeze in, maybe share a table and have a blast!“

“Super cool, super local and great beer. Loved Lars and The Audition“

“Good wine, cheese, and ambience.“

“Been to this place a couple of times before. It's totally a very casual vibe, the bartenders are unbelievably friendly and helpful. The food is delicious and not on the expensive side especially for what you get. We will continue to go back. Great selection of beer if that's what you are into.“

“This is my second time here and I can confidently say this is the best izakaya I’ve ever been to. A solid five stars without a doubt! The service is excellent, and the chef is so friendly and engaging. But the real highlight is the food. I’ve tried so many dishes, and unbelievably, every single one was delicious! I honestly can’t recommend this place enough. Thank you for making such incredible food!“

“Delicious food and drinks“

“Good drink specials and a solid atmosphere.“

“Hands down my favorite bar. We discovered this bar while working on the Fox Studio Lot and have become regulars ever since. The Mozzatini is to DIE FOR. And the bartenders are just so nice. This bar doesn’t have the pretentious feeling most bars have in Los Angeles. I will continue to be a regular for as long as it stays this way. But really, try the Mozzatini. Its so so good.

Parking: There’s always parking off from Pico, but you may need to walk a few minutes. Just check both sides of the road. And don’t park in the neighborhood, you will get a ticket.“

“Good food and good ambiance! We arrived early and it was pretty empty but started to get busy by the time we left. I had the pork taco and steak taco. The pork one was delicious!“

“This place is a chic little spot, all muted tones and stylish details straight off a Pinterest board.

At first, we were seated at a bar-edge table with awkwardly high chairs that left almost no legroom. My husband and I aren’t big people, but it was uncomfortable. We asked to move, and they graciously accommodated us. Not long after, the couple seated there requested lower chairs too, so clearly we weren’t alone. The design here leans more toward aesthetics than function—there was even a perfectly sized table reserved for books and plants that could have probably been utilized for diners. Still, the cozy, lived-in touches, like the coat rack and the homey décor, created the vibe of having dinner at a friend’s fashionably curated house, which was warm and inviting.

We started with the grilled asparagus, which came with a horseradish sauce that added a sharp, peppery bite to the smoky char—balanced and bold without overwhelming. The market salad was crisp and refreshing, full of bright flavors that cut through the richness of the meal to come.

For mains, we ordered the Wild Rivers Purebred Wagyu MS8+ Picanha and the Oakley Wagyu Bavette Steak MS7. Both were absolutely exquisite—tender, juicy, and deeply flavorful, with a melt-in-your-mouth quality that spoke for the quality of the cuts. The seasonings and sauces on the side paired seamlessly with each bite, enhancing rather than distracting from the beef. Definitely one of the bests we’ve ever had.

For drinks, I had the lemonade—an excellent balance of tart and sweet that felt perfectly refreshing alongside the heavier dishes. My husband had a West Coast IPA, which complemented the richness of the steaks with its crisp bitterness.

Our server was friendly and attentive and checked in at the right moments, making sure our glasses were never empty. His genuine hospitality really elevated the whole experience and made us feel well cared for.

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered and would highly recommend this spot to anyone in search of a great steak in a stylish intimate setting.“

“Great food and fast tables! Let’s gooo!!!! Best Michelada I’ve ever had!“

“Creature Comforts is a fantastic brewery in the Fashion District near DTLA. From day one, the Tom and Jacob have made my wife and me feel at home, always greeting us by name. The regulars are lively, and the beer tenders are both knowledgeable and attentive.

If you visit, don't miss the Tropicalia, Double Koko Bunni, and Bibo—my personal favorites. My wife swears by the Athena.

The brewery offers a great vibe with board games, art shows, and delicious pizza from the neighboring restaurant that pairs perfectly with their beer. Highly recommend checking it out!“

“I love this place and they also have Suntory Premium The Malts on tap!! I’m a little sad though because the menu says the ramen comes with an onsen egg but it’s just a standard ajitama. I love onsen eggs and was so excited only to be let down :( happened twice.“

“I had a great experience at this ramen spot! The food was both delicious and very affordable, which was a pleasant surprise. They also offer alcoholic drinks — I tried the sake margarita and it was so tasty. The space is a bit on the smaller side, but it still felt cozy. My server, Amelia, was incredibly nice and made the visit even better. Overall, a great place for a flavorful meal and a good drink!“

“Enjoyed the exotic choices of sausage and the beverage selection.“

“Nick the Greek is hands-down one of the best spots to take hungry college kids when they need a hearty, satisfying meal that doesn’t break the bank. The portions are generous, the food is fresh, and the flavors feel like comfort food with a Mediterranean twist.

The menu is full of options, from classic gyros and souvlaki to falafel and bowls piled high with rice, meat, and veggies. Everything is made fast but tastes like it took hours, which is perfect for students on tight schedules (and even tighter budgets). The fries with feta and garlic are always a crowd favorite, and the baklava makes the perfect sweet finish.

The atmosphere is casual and welcoming—great for grabbing a quick bite between classes or sitting down with friends after a long day. Plus, it’s a place where picky eaters and adventurous foodies alike can find something to enjoy.

If you’ve got college kids with big appetites, Nick the Greek will fill them up without emptying your wallet. It’s flavorful, affordable, and always hits the spot.“

“I love the Mexican food, everything is delicious, recommend!“

“My family and I LOVE Pomodoros. The foods and service are amazing and it’s reasonably priced for dinner. I love the interior design, I just wish there were more soft surfaces to absorb noise, as it can get kind of noisy in the restaurant. They recently reopened for lunch, but with the same menu and prices as what’s available for dinner. Prior to Covid they offered soup with meals and entrees were a little cheaper and smaller during lunch than during dinner. It would be amazing if you could bring a version of that back. I would go all the time for lunch if it was different from dinner in some way.“

“Four words to describe the food. Yummy yum yum yum😋“

“Loved the energy here the music was great and the food was amazing 🤩“

“excelente servicio muy bien todo“

“O so stop in on a monthly basic to buy my money order for my rent add money to my prepaid card and play lottery. They're very curtious and sometime a bit crowded especially the first part of the month. It's not the cleaniess place due to the area and they type of people that enter this particular place. Or her wise it's convenient because I live 3 blocks away from this place.“

“They were open and operational during the beginning of covid only as a food delivery service restaurant. I have had Italian food within the city but this by far was the best. The gnocci was sooo good the blue cheese and chopped olive sauce.“

“Best avocado toast ever, coffee is divine“

“They have great lunch specials for both ramen and sushi! Plus validated parking, which is rare in Hollywood, on the Eastown property!“

“Had a blast. #GoBucs!! #DALvsTB“

“Somebody pleeease tell me what do you guys put in that "Lav Mi Ban Ber" hookah flavor!!!)flavour“

“Very good service! Awesome bartender!“

“David was absolutely delightful. Wonderful conversation. There was a managers meeting happening in the floor which felt off. And in the middle of helping guests someone in the meeting asked David to turn on the TV on. Concerned about the companies priorities over the guests at the bar where both TVs were both on. Overall good experience.“

“DID YOU KNOW YOU CAN FIND AMAZING GREEK FOOD @ THE L.A ZOO? I didn't, until now! Reggie's Bistro has to be one of the best places I've ate at in a recreational place (zoo, theme park, etc.). I got a falafel bowl and OPA was it delicious! It came with Quinoa, arugula salad, Hummus, Tzatziki, Artichoke, Roasted tomato, Cucumber, and Harissa oil! Not only was the salad tossed and mixed when it arrived to my table, but everything came out fresh! The dressing and veggies were phenomenal. Vegans and veggie addicts, you'll like this place! All the food items here are made to order! The falafel was perfectly crispy, I have zero complaints. I topped my lunch off with a large chocolate chip cookie and I was in heaven.

Reggie's is pricey but definitely worth the visit, dang this gator can cook! I also saw some delicious burgers, sandwiches and wraps on the menu. I wish I lived closer so I can visit everyday! The staff was pretty good, they took our orders quickly and were friendly enough. Drinks are self-served at the drinking fountain and you pick up your food when your handheld buzzer goes off.

My party and I didn't experience a long line or any craziness! Reggie's outdoor seating has shade covering all tables. The place is great for smaller groups and it's quiet. I will definitely be coming back!“

“There are 24 types of beer!
It's so cool that you can follow right from the tab.
There's an explanation attached, but it's hard to choose, so I asked for a recommendation, and they asked me if I liked IPA, etc.
Since I wanted to eat something refreshing, they recommended 2 types and were very kind!!
I bought it and ate it with other food, so it was a good idea.“

“Very good place, friendly bartender very good cocktails 🍹“

“Amazing vibes — beautiful outdoor seating that’s perfect day or night, with heaters to keep you cozy. The staff is warm, inviting, and great at recommending dishes for first-timers. Happy hour is a steal, the sushi is fresh, and the miso soup is delicious. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Att: Customers of El Compadre do not order online from this app app.orderhero.us its a SCAM. they take your money and the restaurant does not receive your order. It has nothing to do with the restaurant. Call the restaurant, its the best way to secure your order directly.“

“As a first timer, this place was amazing! The wait time for my reservation did take a little longer than expected but as soon as my friend and I were seated, our server, Divine, took great care of us. The drinks are phenomenal and the music was GREAT! Definitely worth visiting in the DTLA area.“

“Salad And Meatball Sandwich And Of Course Pizza Delicious 👍👍👍“
