A GOOD BREW
See All Lists
1. Bootlegger's Brewery
GREAT LOCAL BEER! GREAT LOCAL CROWD! a good ol' time.
This is as local as it gets... located in what is almost like a garage, the brewery is inside a miniature MINIATURE warehouse tucked away in a little corner of industrial Fullerton... you're bound…More »
2. Congregation Ale House
I was worried that the church theme would really make the non-church going me uncomfortable, but the ambiance&decor is just the perfect amount of cool and fun - without being too over the top where it makes you feel uncomfortable or makes the place…More »
3. 38 Degrees Ale House & Grill

Neighbourhood: Alhambra
LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.
You wouldn't expect to find such a great gastropub in the middle of Alhambra, but here it is! HUGE selection of beer, happy hour available Mon-Fri from 3-7pm, and tons of TVs. We unfortunately missed happy hour just by a few minutes…More »
4. Haven Gastropub
Haven Burger w/ Truffle Fries - 3.5 stars
The much talked about burger from Haven was a solid burger. It was juicy and well built. I loved the contrast from the pickled onions... but it did fall a bit short of what I would truthfully give 4-stars;…More »

BAR REVIEW
The bar sits in the center of their dining room, sort of dividing the space into two... on either side is a large flat screen TV - perfect for appeasing the BF. There are (I think) 36 beers on tap - all available also to sample and/or make…More »
6. The Back Abbey
On my quest to find the best burger in LA, I was happy to find that this very out east Back Abbey burger does in fact stand up well against its many DTLA competitors, and is much closer and more convenient (for me) too!
I headed to The Back Abbey on a…More »

YUM! Line was out the door with a 15-20 minute wait, but it was well worth it! I can't wait to come back!
I came with some friends (some of whom we're German and who did in fact applaud these sausages) and was able to try the Duck&Bacon with Jalapeno…More »
8. Father's Office
Santa Monica, CA 90403
(310) 393-2337
Hmmm... I've heard A LOT about Father's Office - "#1 Burger in LA", etc.
Maybe I had it hyped up in my head, but I'd give this burger just an A-OK.
Would I have it again? Yes.
Do I look forward to having this burger again? Sure.
But is it the best…More »
9. The Bottle Room
[3.5 stars]
Met up a few friends here after work for their Happy Hour - $2 off pints, $1 off wine, $1-$3 off appetizers&flatbreads... 5 to 7pm daily, and all day Sunday. We we're lucky that there was also a special Maui Beer event that night (until…More »

Category:
Bars
Neighbourhoods: Printer's Row, South Loop
Came with a huge group of friends and had a blast! Kasey's is a relatively small bar with limited seating, but it gets the job done. Although they didn't know a lot of the drinks we requested (AMF, Tokyo Tea, etc.... which are all really mainstream…More »

13. Pizzaiolo
Oakland, CA 94609
(510) 652-4888
YUM YUM YUM! one of the best pizzas I've had in the Berkeley/Oakland area. Pizzaioli is owned by an Alice Water's Chez Pannise veteran and is one of Alice Water's favorite dining locations. It has a much fancier sit-down feel than your normal…More »
14. Total Wine & More
Best place for all your alcohol/party needs!
Total Wine & More was not lying when they said they had the best selection of wine and spirits, and at the lowest prices anywhere... this place totally beats out BevMo. Prices here are comparable to Costco…More »

2nd time here.
Meridian wins me over with their style. Meridian is an upscale sports bar with large flat screen TVs hanging from every corner/wall and one super-large reverse projected screen on the back wall. They have a variety of tasty beers on tap…More »

Thalassa is definitely the hidden gem.. or it was for me. I used to always walk by this place and see the multitudes of pool tables through their dark windows and think, "this place seems sketchy and lame." But I finally came around after hearing…More »
