I came to visit with my father and Lana asked him if he was 21 and made him show his ID and he found it so funny he hasn't stopped talking about it. Highlight of his week read more

Lana was the best bar tender when I was there on Monday! The drinks were amazing and the service was even better.

My husband and I came to Golden Road Brewery today, and we definitely needed a little pick-me-up after a rough week. We had such a great experience! Our bartender, Cesar, was amazing--so attentive to our needs, friendly, and incredibly helpful. He made us feel welcomed and taken care of throughout our visit. It was exactly the kind of experience we needed to turn our week around. Thank you, Cesar, for making our visit so enjoyable! We'll definitely be back. Go Trojans, fight on! read more

Just when you thought brewing companies might be a thing of the past... along comes Golden Road Brewing, Atwater Village! This spot is a definite go-to whether you're hanging with friends, bringing the family, or just looking to dabble in some tasty craft beer options. Great atmosphere, great staff, and most importantly...come hungry! We sampled a little bit of everything: the Turkey Club, wings both Buffalo and dry rub, and those beer-battered string beans... DAMN, those were good! I'd come back just for those alone. Then came the fish tacos WOW!! Street taco style, packed with flavor, and just as good as everything else we tried. Honestly, the recipes across the board were fantastic. GRB really gets the menu right. There are just enough choices without going overboard. Whether you're stopping in for a flight to get the night started or showing up ready to feed those hungry tummies, there's something here for you. My craft beer pick: 10 Hop Hazy Crowd favorite: Mango Cart and I can see why! Definitely a must-stop at any Golden Road location.

Unfortunately came during a busy World Cup game, however it seems like there was miscommunication in between the whole front of house team. I came with four other people and waited to be "seated", however they took us to a stand up table where we would be standing. I wish they could have communicated in advance by saying hey we have no tables right now or advise about potential waiting time. Anyways we ended just trying to get a beer, we couldn't get beers for the table upstairs, then they told us to go back down, so we're just being played like ping pong balls. We go finally were able to order our beer, since in the end we still wanted at least one beer, even if we didn't get any food to sit and eat. Again would have appreciated advanced and honest messaging, it would have been fine. read more

If you're not eating and love Golden Road beer this place is for you. If you have a dog and a toddler and want to drown out the barking and the crying - this place is for you. You love noise, you hate nachos, and you're not into tacos, you aren't hungry, it's for you. The service was pretty good. They do have a kids menu 'orally'. The bathrooms are gross and the parking is horrible. read more

The best part of the brewery is the large amount of space. Plenty of seating and lots of tvs to watch games. They were even playing big brother. It's also cool that they make mango cart. The beers we got were just okay. Not my favorite brewery in LA. The service was great though. The bathrooms were super mid and missing many essential supplies. read more

Golden road brewery has been a staple beer for While now. I Came here for the first time, just drove 25 minutes to try the food and beer. First off the food is bland and cold. I got vegan option, I know vegan food is harder to work with, but it seems like minimal effort. The beer was okay, I've had the west coast IPA before. The staff was okay as well. MOST IMPORTANTLY, they have rats in their trees near the outside area that are running across the metal beams above the eating area! Kate I hope you read this and fix these issues asap. I wouldn't recommend coming here. read more

This is the third time I have been here and it is always amazing! Also note, they have sadly decreased their menu (RIP the short rib melt) But, we got the blackened chicken sandwich, turkey bacon club, fish tacos, and fried green beans. The blackened chicken sandwich was so good, the chicken was well seasoned and juicy. I loved the pickled onions on it The turkey bacon club was also amazing! The turkey was so thick, I was shocked! I love the toasted sourdough bread and it had a good amount of avocado. The fish tacos were not as good as the sandwiches but they all had pretty big pieces of fish which was nice! The green beans were good, but the breading was a little too thick for my taste. The jalapeno ranch was yummy though! We ordered at the bar, but the lady who took our order was so nice, especially when we were asking about the new menu! Whenever I go it is always good food and service. It is also a fun place to watch any sports! read more

Fun neighborhood brewery. The beers are really good, from IPAs to their pilsner and rice lager too. They have plenty of food items to choose from so on this visit we had the pizza, fries, and pretzel. Everything was good except the pretzel. The space is comfortable with plenty of outdoor and indoor space. The staff were helpful and friendly . T,v's are peppered all over making it easy to get a get view of the game of the day. The brewery is fog friendly, so feel free to bring your four legged friend. They have flights available so you can pick and choose which ones you want to try. They also have wine and non alcoholic beverages. I recognize the dodgers lager. Dedicated parking lot fills up quick, so plan on street parking. read more

I've been patronizing Golden Road since they first opened, way before it was packed with people and before the expansion. In fact, I became one of the first members of Chloe's and still have my membership card. I became a huge fan of their Hefewiezen and their Get Up Offa That Brown beers and have always enjoyed bringing friends to Golden Road. Then they sold out to Anheiser Busch but thankfully things stayed pretty much the same for a long time. Now it's different and I'm not a fan. The menu has grown and the beer selection has shrunk. On my recent visit, they had neither of my favorites, beers that have been on tap since Day One! They've also stopped brewing on site and no longer offer tours. I am really bummed because I've been a fan for so long. What I feared would happen when they were sold has finally come to fruition. So we chose different beers and put in an order for the Tuna Poke Nachos and the Short Rib Sandwich. The nachos were huge but underwhelming. The tuna was not seasoned at all and the remaining ingredients (avocado, cucumber, pickled onion, etc) were drenched in enough eel sauce that the chips got soggy and the whole thing tasted like a dessert from the sweetness of the sauce. The short rib was much better but it did not come with the au jus to dip it in as stated on the menu. Thankfully their beers are still good, despite the fact that I couldn't get the ones I wanted. But the food was underwhelming which makes me sad. I miss the old Golden Road. read more

I enjoy Golden Road's Mango Cart and thought it would be cool to checkout the actual brewery. I've been here several times for happy hour and at night. It's a cool hangout place to get drinks with your group of people! There is an indoor seating area, an outdoor seating area, and more group seating where the bar is located. There is also a turf area where your kids or grownups can play jumbo checkers and other group games. Very dog-friendly and there is also a pet relief area. The drinks and food here is good! I did try many of their foods and it was good. The most memorable food was the birria fries. I was very happy with the portion but the only thing was I wish this came with some sort of birria sauce/ consume because it was too dry. Besides that, it was delicious. My puppy tried the Peanut Butter Pup Ice Cream but sadly he didn't like it... I ended up eating it haha! Parking tends to be limited but not an impossible task to grab a spot eventually. Service was slow during the times I visit. I've had to get up and ask several times when the food would arrive because we were already on our second drinks without any food on the table. And sadly, the happy hour menu and pricing isn't anything to write home about. But still, it's a spacious and reliable place to casually meet and socialize! read more

Happy hour menu (tacos) are not worth the price they were charging for. The personal pizza is a small size which was fine for me, but not sure if it was worth the price. My favorite is still their pretzel! Water is self serve and they had heating lamps for the patio. Which was great because it did get cold. Service was decent, but hard to find someone when we were trying to beat the clock to order more happy hour menu. They also required us to put a card for the tab. Then at the end, they ask if you want to charge the card on the tab or switch it out. I almost tripped over the threshold of the patio and the restaurant, but I caught myself. read more

When my friend and I first entered there was no acknowledgement and not sure if we just seat ourselves. We sat for about 3-5 minutes and still no assistance. I walked up to an employee for help and he did not seem too intrigued to help and just said yea you can order from the bar too. Started looking at the menu online and my friend decided to ask an employee for her opinion and she advised us that they have a menu and proceeded to get the menu and give it to us; this menu was in front of the first guy I was speaking to. I wanted to leave but decided to give the food and drinks a try since it was my first time here. Drinks were ok and the food was good. Due to my first unpleasant experience, I will not return and would not recommend. Acknowledging your customers goes a long way. Thank you! read more

Hadn't been here for a few years simply because I don't live nearby anymore but stopped in today & had a great experience! The servers were so thoughtful & attentive. They were all helping each other out so we could order drinks or food from anyone & it worked out super well. My turkey bacon club on sourdough was awesome & it comes with avocado without having to add on. Also loved the prickly pear wine based margarita. So happy to revisit an old favorite & have it live up to how good I remembered it being. read more

Love this place. Been coming here for years and it just keeps evolving and getting better and better. Love the space especially the side patio where on a hot day you're shaded and they have the fans going. It's really just a laid back fun atmosphere throughout. Ara was our server and she was phenomenal. She checked in on us and was friendly and helpful. One of the things I love most about Golden Road is that they have a Vegan Menu...like a legit Vegan Menu. Almost everything they have on their other menu they have a Vegan alternative. I went for the Pretzel with Vegan Beer Cheese and Spicy Mustard and for my main I had the Vegan Burger with Cheese and Fries. Love the new Ciabatta Bun. Next time I'm going to ask if they can toast/heat the bun a bit more. It was slightly toasted on the inside in parts but the outside was cold and with how dense the bun is I felt like I was mainly biting into a cold burger. The Pretzel appetizer was chefs kiss! Parking can be a bit tricky but they do have a paid lot. read more

Despite living so close to Golden Road Brewing, I've sadly only been here twice. My most recent experience was this past Saturday for a quick beer after unsuccessfully trying to find parking at the Americana in Glendale due to it being Black Friday weekend. For ~$8.75, I enjoyed a 22oz of the tropical hazy (I forget the proper name). The three of us also split a pretzel, which was very delicious. If looking for a chill spot to grab some food and beers at, Golden Road Brewing is an excellent option. read more

Came out for a holiday party. Parking was ok but I got lucky. They had self serve tacos and enchilada. I tried the tacos with birria and grabbed a Mango cart and a Get up off that brown ale at the bar. The Get up off that brown ale was a smooth brown. Also had churro and Mexican chocolate bread pudding. The churro were mini and pretty good. There was also some chocolate syrup which was good with it. The bread pudding was aright but I'm not into bread pudding. read more

Food. Great. Beers. Great. Service. Great. Staff. Friendly. Secret Pinball. Great. Plenty of room to stretch out in the bathroom (it's hard to stretch in front of strangers because they have no idea how flexible I am). If you have a secret, this place is good at keeping it. I was surprised. Not that they kept a secret - but how big of a secret it was to keep. I mean basically - it was about a ceo. Thank you read more

Nathan absolutely made the experience at Golden Road(difficult to find online for a review). From the moment he came over, his energy was infectious. He was upbeat, friendly, and genuinely welcoming without ever feeling forced. He was sharp, attentive, and impressively accurate with everything we ordered, which honestly makes a bigger difference than people realize. What really stood out was his personality. When he opened the tab and dropped his catchphrase, "Is that what you go by?", it instantly set the tone. It is such a small thing, but it is memorable, funny, and somehow makes the interaction feel more personal. You can tell he actually enjoys what he is doing. Great service can elevate a good night into a great one, and Nathan does exactly that. If you are lucky enough to get him as your waiter, you are in for a smooth, fun, and genuinely enjoyable experience. read more

I love Golden Road. Went for happy hour and got a couple of Micheladas and the half plate of nachos. The cheese on the nachos are so good. The nachos in general are fire. Miches were heavenly as usual and the vibes in outdoor seating are casual and warm. Came with some old friends who I don't see super often and it was the perfect setting to catch up. Would be cool to bring games here. read more

Every time I pull up to this spot, it's like a breath of fresh air. There's this green bush fence lining the outside of the brewery, so right away, it feels like you're heading somewhere fun. They've got games like cornhole (you know, the one where you toss a little sack into the hole on the board) set up outside and there's plenty of space for everyone, including families. I always see a bunch of kids during the day, but if you're like me and prefer more of an adult-only vibe, I'd suggest coming a little later when the crowd shifts. The beer? Amazing. They have a wide selection to try, and there's plenty of seating, both indoor and outdoor. You can even walk around with your drink around the enclosed area, which is neat. I'm not sure if there's a cut-off time for kids being allowed, so I'd just call and check if that's important to you. Their food is also really solid for a brewery. I tried the spinach and artichoke dip, and it hit the spot. Overall, if you're in the greater LA area, this is definitely one of the breweries worth checking out. I know they have other locations, but this one is by far the best. It can be a little tricky to find if you've never been, but once you're there, it's totally worth it. Oh, and their pricing is reasonable in comparison to other breweries nearby and they have the game on if you need it by the bar area! read more

I had been a big fan of mango cart for many years so was excited to experience the brewery itself.

We tried several of their beers as tasters and a chicken tinga nacho to share. It was a fun experience! read more

During our lunch visit on Friday, August 7th, we had an extremely disappointing interaction with a Black female bartender that put a damper on our entire dining experience. I unfortunately did not get her name, so I am including this description solely so management can identify which bartender was working during the lunch shift that day. I ordered a michelada, and when the bartender asked for my ID, I explained that I had unfortunately left it behind but that I am 31 years old. I completely understand that an establishment may have a strict policy against serving alcohol without valid identification, and I would have had absolutely no issue if she had simply told me she couldn't serve me. Instead, she responded, "What is that supposed to mean?" staring right at me with a glare, and then proceeded to question me about why I didn't have my ID, ask for my birthdate, and speak to me in an unnecessarily rude and condescending manner. The interaction felt less like a straightforward ID check and more like an interrogation over the simple mistake of forgetting my ID. She ultimately made an exception and allowed me to order the drink, while explaining that ID verification was something Golden Road had been focusing on lately. While I appreciated the exception, whether or not I was served was never the issue. The issue was the way I was spoken to. A simple, "I'm sorry, but I can't serve you without your ID," would have been completely understandable, and I would have respected that without complaint. There was simply no reason for the hostility, condescension, or the way the situation was handled. Her demeanor made the interaction uncomfortable enough that I seriously considered walking out, and it left a sour taste in our mouths for the remainder of our visit. I hope management reviews who was bartending during lunch on August 7th and addresses this interaction appropriately. Customer service is ultimately about how you treat people, including when you have to tell a customer "no." Unfortunately, this experience fell far short of what I would expect from Golden Road, and at this point I have no intention of returning to this location anytime in the near future. **Update: Management has reached out and offered some compensation to make amends for the situation that occurred, so we truly appreciate and did not expect this type of response. It goes a long way. Thanks! read more

We were looking for a place to meet up with some family who were visiting, and we ended up at Golden Road brewing. It ended up being a great spot! Here's what we noticed: - Lots of great seating areas, including totally outside, somewhat outside, or inside. It was a beautiful day so we sat in a covered area, but we still had the benefit of the breeze. The train going by every once in a while added some fun ambience. - They had a ton of beers to choose from... I got a flight of four beers, which were all tasty... not spectacular, but good. - My wife and I ordered the Portabella Mushroom Burger with fries and the Veggie Wrap with salad so we could split both. The burger was excellent, and while we had doubts about the veggie wrap when we first saw it, it ended up being really tasty. - Service was pretty good, although I hate when a place that is mostly a brewery shows tipping options starting at 20%. Bottom line: Golden Road Brewing was pretty fun, with good basic food fare, and a broad range of beers. We would go back next time we're in town. read more

We decided to check out Golden Road Brewing because of its dog-friendly atmosphere--and that part definitely delivered. It's a great spot to bring your pup and relax outdoors, which we really appreciated. That said, the experience had a few hiccups. I was a bit disappointed that a couple of the items I was most excited to try--the Guava Cart and the Spicy Clucker--were unavailable. I ended up ordering the chicken Caesar salad, which was simple but satisfying. My fiancé and I also shared the chicken nachos, and those were definitely a highlight--really flavorful and worth trying. He ordered the pub burger and was happy with it, so no complaints there. The biggest downside was the service. It was quite slow, and unfortunately, my food came out much later than his. By the time I got my meal, he had already finished eating, and our puppy had officially lost patience with the whole outing. I ended up taking my food to go, which wasn't ideal. Overall, it's a fun, dog-friendly spot with some tasty menu items, but the slower service didn't quite match the price point. Still, we had a decent time, so I'd give it 4 stars. read more

Food is great! Service is excellent! Music, TVs, game is on. Nothing better than a nice cold beer and delicious food to go along with it.

They have a lot of different food options, drink options and vegan options too. Give it a try. read more

I've been coming here for years. Today was probably the last. Menu has been reduced to minimal selection, beers are nothing special, service was abysmal (self service water was warm in 96 degree weather so we asked for ice which took way longer then it should have considering the heat), i was there for over an hour, a server was never around to order a second round of drinks, the busser came to clear our table before we were ready to leave (we took the hint that we were not the audience they wanted), AND minimum tip of 20%?? This place used to be my go to, now ill probably avoid the place. read more

My spouse and I were looking for a spot for lunch and came across this place on Yelp, so we decided to give it a try. Parking was easy, though it was pretty busy (it was a Sunday after all). There were several outdoor seating areas, and one seemed specifically designed for dog owners, which was a nice touch. The whole place is very dog-friendly, which was awesome. When sitting in the ground-level outdoor seating area, we learned you have to order at the bar and bring your food to your table. However, if you sit in the top-level outdoor area or indoors, a server will take your order and bring it to you. Everyone working there was incredibly friendly and helpful. The menu offers a variety of great options, including choices for vegans like my spouse. He had a delicious vegan cheeseburger with vegan cheese and fries, which he really enjoyed. Before that, he had nachos but requested all the ingredients be served separately on the side, so he could take the leftovers home without it getting all mixed up--great idea! I went for one of their giant, soft pretzels with cheese and mustard. While I'm not a fan of sweet mustard (where I'm from in Munich, it's typically paired with a specific sausage), I also ordered a bowl of their chili. Let me tell you, that chili was fantastic. I had it with my warm, delicious pretzel and was in heaven. This is definitely a place to visit: friendly service, tasty food, kid-friendly, and dog-friendly. What more could you ask for? read more

Had my 29th birthday at this location and had a great time! Was close to our next venue activity so decided to do some research on what was near and golden road showed up so gave it a try. It is very weird to me that you cannot take reservations especially since I called a week in advance. They said they noted it and when I showed up with my 18 guest, they could not accommodate and I was switched around from spot to spot and ultimately ended up out front where seating was first come first serve. I would think that you would want to allow reservations because of the amount of customers coming in to spend money. Nonetheless, had a good time and the drinks selection was great and the food was solid. Like any bar, you will pay a decent amount but had a good overall experience. Very nice vibes, and definitely family friendly as well. read more

This location absolutely hit the mark during my last visit. I have to give a huge shoutout to Anna behind the bar. She's one of those bartenders who makes you feel taken care of the second you sit down. Super friendly, easy to talk to, and genuinely knowledgeable about everything on tap. Her recommendations were spot on and she added such a warm vibe to the whole experience. The food is, as always, consistently excellent. Every dish feels fresh and thoughtfully made, and it pairs perfectly with their amazing beer selection. They've always got something new to try, from their signature brews to fun seasonal options, and it's the kind of place where you actually look forward to exploring the menu. Will definitely be coming back for Anna and the delicious "The Boss" sandwich. read more
