    Great location friendly comfortable and excellent beers ‼. Beer crawl definitely ‼

    Excellent staff and they serve great beers. Really worth a beer crawl on a weekend. I will definitely come back sooon‼

    Trying their hazy ipa

    Just came in for 2 growlers of their hazy ipas and they were both delicious. 8.5% prices seemed fair. They had a private event going on so it was only open up front but they had plenty of space outside to enjoy your beer. I'd definitely come back to this place if in the area. Staff was friendly and saw plenty of dogs outside too so that's a plus for those who can't leave the house without their dog.

    Merchandise is on point!

    Super cool little spot, tucked away in an industrial complex which adds to the tranquility of it. The beers here are all great, they had a strawberry beer which was absolutely delicious. Brought a few friends and we played trivia as well which was a blast! Really like this place a lot and will forsure be adding it to my weekend rotation for breweries. Wish they'd send me one of the absolutely AWESOME coolers which blew my kind.

    Last Name Brewing is hands down one of the best breweries in all of California. Definitely my favorite brewery in the IE. Every time I come in the staff is super friendly and knowledgeable about all their beer selections. I also love the atmosphere and environment of the brewery. If you like IPAs this is the place to come to. The Giga Watt and Tacklin Fuel are my personal favorites. I also really enjoy the Dropkick Mercy as well. I am never disappointed when I come in. Be sure to check it out.

    Excellent customer service and a pretty nice space. They usually have live music on weekends, which is nice. The beer here is pretty good if you like IPAs. Personally, I don't but theirs aren't bad and their other beers have good flavor. Overall, a solid brewery to go to when there are many in the area to choose from.

    Ask the Community - Last Name Brewing

    Do you sell non alcoholic drinks?

    Does this place have wine?

    Hey there! Unfortunately, we only serve one upon request for private events. Great tip for future additions. 👍

    Are you guys dog friendly?

    Yes we are! As long as they're well behaved, and remain on a leash. Take a picture of your pup while you're here and tag us on Facebook or Instagram!

    Is this a family friendly brewery?

    Absolutely is a family friendly place

    Are people under 21 allowed to hang out with a group that's older than 21?

    Yes they are. At least I've seen younger than 21 in there with family.

    Do they sell shirts?

    Hi Christian, yes, we have a variety of shirt styles available at the brewery. We don't have any online sales yet, but that is a good excuse to come by and enjoy a pint while you are pondering your choices. Cheers!

    By any chance would anyone know if they have vegan beers or where to find out?

    I'm not aware of any vegan beers on their menu. Best bet for that would be to check out Trader Joe or maybe Sprouts.

    Does anyone know if they have nitro beer? I've never thought to look while there, but someone in my family was wondering. Thanks.

    Hi Jennifer, thanks for asking. We frequently have a Stout, Brown, or Red pouring on nitro. It isn't absolutely guaranteed, so it is best to give us a call before heading over if you don't want to take any chances. We currently have a single…

The Haven is a 125 capacity space with brick walls and wood laminate floors. It's a pretty cool picture when you walk in. The Haven used to host all sorts of music but in recent times they've dialed back on hosting hardcore punk shows because people can't control themselves. But if you're interested in all sorts of alternative bands there's still something here for you. Absolutely no alcohol on premises but you can get water. Security is pretty cool and aren't afraid to kick folks out for acting a fool. Parking is anywhere you'd park if you were going to the Fox or Glass House. The Haven is an awesome venue and I hope they start to host hardcore punk shows more often but I don't blame for putting down a pause. That said the sound is real good and it's an awesome place to see your favorites up close. Check their IG for upcoming events if this sounds like your vibe. Highly recommended!

This year we got the usual great lineup but instead of the DIY style show in a parking lot, Professor Vic moved it to the Cathedral. Located right off Garey, The Cathedral is tough to miss. There's plenty of street parking on Center St and there's also a small parking lot across the street. This used to be a YMCA but it looks like an old church with dark wood flooring, high ceilings and stained glass windows. A very cool venue. How did it sound? Loud. Extremely loud. They also had a huge video board which gave each band a little extra hot sauce. There were a couple of bars in the back and you could also order food. It's air conditioned in there but between the heat (100+ outside at the time) and the amount of bodies inside, it was at least bearable. Mosh for Youth was great as always and while I loved the DIY ethos in the past this felt like a leap forward. The sound, look and venue made this feel big time. I hope future MFY shows take place here...until they maybe outgrow this place too, which would mean more scholarships for the kids. Highly recommended!

Recommend reserving a spot online to be guaranteed a table spot and that set aside seating for your party. You can't bring outside food or drinks but you can bring a cake and party decorations. Plenty of parking spaces, it opens at 7pm so it feels early when it's still light out. They play a lot of oldies, 80s and 90s songs. I kind of felt out of place not knowing a lot of the older songs. Younger folks might have a tough time following along the songs. If you want your song played it's like a $20 payment unless no one is there and you might get away with under $20. That accept cash and Venmo. They have a full bar for drink orders and a menu for bar food like pizza, burgers, and fries. Don't have high expectations for the food. You're here for the piano music. You can put in special requests at the beginning of the night to highlight someone's birthday and they might get called up on stage. Or pay $100 and get to sing your song on stage. Overall it's a try once of your life experience or if you like every song in piano format.

My friends and I summarize this restaurant as being "great for apps and cocktails" and not the best for dinner. It's sort of in a tucked away location. I nearly walked into Gus's BBQ because I missed the sign pointing to the Whisper House entrance. Plenty of free street and structure parking in downtown Claremont since it's a college town. Servers were attentive and noticed when we needed refills and answered our questions.

Really cheap parking nearby, but you have to download an app, so make sure you have good connection. Lots of extra steps but it was only $2, so not bad! Despite circling around, it was not as easy to get parking like the other down town city concert venues that we've gone to, but no biggie. It was literally right across the street from the venue. We went to go and see the Japanese visual kei band, Jiluka, and people were lined up almost 10 hours before the concert started (vibes for SoCal way different than that of NorCal), so arriving 2 hours before the concert started, unless I shoved myself and moshed to the front, I knew it was cooked, but I got a really good spot on the second floor balcony and the staff was nice enough to point out where to stand to get a great view. Restrooms and the merchandise tables were all on the second floor. The back of the first floor was a bar and in the entrance to the side was also a bar too, I think. Security is way tighter here than all of the other 3 venues I went to to go see concerts during the week, so I'm sure shenanigans have occurred. No canned drinks in certain areas, no chains (definitely warranted this warning since lots of people dressed alt for this show and had to go return things to their cars, etc.), and no re-entry after the concert was over, so we couldn't get the Chiikawa Jiluka freebie that someone was passing out. Boo! The concert stage is bizarrely in the corner, but the sound quality was nice enough. I was definitely able to hear the vocalist better at this venue than I was at the NorCal stop, but the lighting was definitely better at the last event. Even though I didn't risk it in the pit this time, I walked out when people were still there and if I was there during the concert, even with my elevated shoes, it would be much more difficult to view the stage than at the other venues that I've been to. It definitely got super crowded and unlike the other venues, there's also a gap between the crowds and the stage, so security was definitely making sure people weren't crowd surfing onto the stage, but it also meant that when the artist threw something in the crowd, some of them had to jump down, grab it, and try again. My biggest qualm was how HOT it was. Even from the second floor balcony, near a fan, and with it not being super crowded up there, I was sweating. I can't imagine what it's like for the people in the pit. Overall, not awful, but there's better venues out there in SoCal.
