Left Coast is good. I'm proud to live across the street from the brewery and tasting room. I'm an IPA fan and they make several great IPAs. They're bottled and in most local grocery stores. They're also on tap at most local restaurants. Just drink it. It's good. read more

Owner John and brewer Dave and bartender Dave were super cool. Made us feel right at home and educated the crap out of us relating to local brews. You can bring a pizza or something to munch on, they have no issue with that. Other than beer nuts and pretzels there is no food available read more

Left Coast Brewing - Breweries Near Me - San Clemente, California

First, the beers are legit. We got a flight and were torn on which beers to order and what growler to get to go. The older woman and man were incredibly welcoming and warm to us and our kids. I am only giving this three stars, however, because of the younger man (comparatively) with long hair who chastised us for following our toddler and told us to keep him on the other side of the establishment. I could see if they were busy and we were impeding their ability to serve, but there were only three other people in the whole place. Great beers and if it wouldn't have been for the guy who was unnecessarily rude, it would have been 5 stars. read more

My favorite brewery when in town. Love the free pretzels and fun games! The vibe is welcoming and open. Great natural daylight and friendly staff! I've been there twice so far, and each time there is something different as far as private events go! I enjoyed my birthday in April and the souvenir glasses I took home in March! Can't wait to get back this way! read more

Left Coast Brewing - I like my beers blonde. - Breweries Near Me - San Clemente, California

Delicious beers at affordable rates, its a blessing in disguise as a bummer that this spot is hidden away in an office complex for locals to find and visitors to search for. Stop by here if you are ever between Los Angeles and San Diego on highway 5. read more

Left Coast Brewing - Beer list - Breweries Near Me - San Clemente, California

A brewery in a business park? Sure, why not! Left Coast's tasting room feels like you are going to a business meeting, but the meeting is all about beer. I could definitely sit through a few of those brainstorming sessions. They have a wide selection of beers that span just about anyone's craft beer palate - super hoppy, Belgium style, red ales, barrel aged, etc. The tastings are a very good deal at 6 tastes for $10. When we went they also had other specials, like Red Tide 22oz bottles for an insanely low price of somewhere in the neighborhood of $4 (I may have had a few too many to remember the exact price, but it was really a good deal). The staff is friendly, but it's not the kind of place where you're going to be served at one of the tables. You order everything from the bar and if they're busy you may be waiting for a few minutes. It's a super mellow vibe, very San Clemente and laid back. read more

Really great place hidden away behind the Oggi's offices. Sunday afternoon we were the only people there for a half hour. Good beer lineup, some nice barrel aged options that showed real craftsmanship. Excellent to taste side by side a beer before and after months of oak laiden love. Well worth a trip from Costa Mesa. read more

Had the greatest time here. Good people, even better beers mine was Pink Bikini and my husband had Trestles, oh my gosh I remember going to Trestles in my high school days. Great atmosphere you have to visit. Melisa was the best!!! read more

Quite frankly best range of beers in Orange County. I like that they don't try too hard by having 30+ beers all of which suck. Trestles, Una Mas and Del Mar are my daily drinkers in the fridge. Anaheim chili beer is my favorite chili beer in So Cal. Tasting room is a bit Spartan but cozy and comes with a friendly staff. Gotta love them offering Yoga, however I have yet to try. Let's just say I'm more of a tulip glass not a taster. read more

Little space within the industrial office park with some good brews and tasty pretzels, not sure I would go back unless I happened to be in the area again as there are much better breweries in North County San Diego where I reside. Hopefully they will grow or maybe catering to the locals around that area is all they want, it packed up nicely after they started pouring at four o'clock. Want to also add great follow up with the staff so adding a star for their continued support for the yelpers and drinkers of fine brew! read more

This is my brother's local tasting room. My first visit 2-3 years ago was quite enlightening. I found one of my favorite LOCAL brewed beers around. We both did a flight of the many choices of brews. I settled on a pint of Boardwalk, my brother on an IPA. After the flight and the pint, my brother gave me the best advice possible. "If we have another, you need to decide if you want to walk out, or crawl out." I was able to walk out after the second pint but lets just say, he made his point. A completely non-pretenious tasting room. All money obviously goes into crafting the beer. I go whenever I get down there to see him. read more

Such a great find!! Came here a couple times with my other and we have absolutely added this place to our "go-to's" list. He's super into Voodoo (we always have a growler filled of this when we leave) and I like trying out the different ones each time. While we get the growler filled, we wait and enjoy a 10oz of something new. The atmosphere is super chill, not at all the "this place is way too cool for me" feeling that makes you want to run out. And the people there are always so friendly and serves your beer with the best smiles! read more

Went to the one in Irvine and what a great set up,love the variety of beer and love that they have food. I am a San clemente resident so love joe and his crew great guys read more

Go big or go home. The asylum beer is so damn good. This place rocks. I haven't ate any food because of timing. But I def will next time and forsure there will be a next time. I'm also drinking an uno mas right now and it is faaanntttaassstic read more

If you are in the vicinity of San Clemente stop by th Left Coast Brewing Company Tasting room. Lots of tasty micro-brews on tap. If you wander in on a Friday night you can get your dinner too. On Fridays they host a food truck and you can grab your dinner and bring it in to the tasting room with you. They get quality food trucks each week. Flights are 6 - 5oz tastes for $10. Can't beat that deal. I especially like Asylum which is a Belgian Triple and any of the stouts or porters they brew. They have 12 beers on tap and I have found very few I don't like. Give my local brew a try! The people are very friendly too. read more

We LOVE left coast! Joe hooked us up with a keg for our coed baby shower. He recommended the Del Mar Lager and it was a huge hit. Thanks joe! Great brewery and can't wait until the Irvine location opens. read more

Great Beers right next to their warehouse and brewing operations in a somewhat unusual commercial office location. Friendly staff and great management. read more

Just tried this place tonight and it was great. When you first come in it has a nice open feel. You have big screens TV's along the bar and a open "garage"style patio. The food is unique and very tasty. The beer is incredible. The staff are also very freindly. Highly recommend this place to hang out, have a food beer, and eat some good food. read more

I was excited to visit a local brew pub before we event left for our trip and Left Coast Brewing was at the tip of my list. I don't know if the employees were having a bad day or it was the fact that I was wearing a sweatshirt that had the California (maybe showing I was not a local?) Or what?! The service was horrible! I felt like I was bothering the server by asking about a menu. She simply pointed to the chalk board showing the beers they had and IBU, etc. . No cost of merchandise or anything else. I did see a small chalk board with a list of merch behind the bar. I ordered a flight and as I was you going to reach for my first glass, I accidently spilled one on the floor. I went and told one of the employees of the accident and she sighed and gave me a wet rag that I thanked her for. I wiped off the table chair and even the floor. Surprisingly as a emplyoee walked right past. No offer to get a mop or wet floor sign. I had a very small sip of what was left of the 4 oz? glass, and it happened to be the best of all to me. I was going to order a pint a disregard the poor service, but when I approached the counter, the attitude was immediate. Truly sad! I really looked forward to checking this place out and even buying a hoody. I was so frustrated, I just paid my bill and left. No thank you, come again, are you from around here, anything. I did the accordingly to my regular norm. 18% despite service. I have lived on server income before so I give people the benefit of the doubt. From here, my wife and I were so disappointed, despite our desire to eat the delicious smelling BBQ from the food truck, we went to Pi1zzaport and turned our night around. Sadly this was our last night in San Clemente. read more

I love left coast. Beer is awesome and I do the bend and brew yoga so fun! Thank you!! Joe the bartender rocks!

My husband and I just tried this tasting room out for the first time. We enjoyed the great-tasting beer and laid back atmosphere. Our tap guy, Javy, offered great service and informative suggestions. As an added bonus, his hair is fabulous. Will definitely be back for another tasting. read more

Visited this place on my way home from LA and it was a pleasant surprise. I had already liked their beer that I tried and wanted to get a growler. Place was in an industrial area but the spot was cool and comfy. Staff were really nice and brought us pretzels out. Definitely would come back again to visit. read more

I have been wanting to try this brewery and am so happy we finally went. They had so many options available that anyone would find a beer that they liked. We ordered the samplers, which I definitely recommend because it allows you to get a wide range of their beers and try new ones you have never tasted. Plus samplers are fun ! The facility itself was very well kept and the bathrooms were extremely clean. The servers and owners were also very friendly and will socialize with you at the bar. They also had multiple flat screen tv's with sports on. Very fun atmosphere and great beers! read more

They open at 12 everyday now!!! More time for great brews! Good people, good beer, and a relaxed aesthetic is what you'll find here, come on down! read more

Love this place. Try Asylum, it's fantastic. Not sure what to drink,? Get a beer flight and try a smaller portion of a few. They are passionate about their brews. Sit at the bar and ask questions. They will educate you on their process and what is going on in the craft beer industry. Cheers! read more

for one: HOP JUIIIIIIICE. bomb. Let me start by saying, I love the name of this brewing company. Totally awesome. Secondly, one of the owners was working while we were visiting, and he hooked it up with lots of tasters. And while I'm mostly an IPA fan, ALL of the beers here tasted great. I ended up buying their zip up hoodie, cause I loved their beer so much. We also took how two growlers (which by the way, their growlers cost $5). I will be back! Thanks for the good time guys! read more

What a great place with really good beer choices. Great atmosphere and the service is excellent. They have some TV's for those looking to watch the games. Don't miss this place. read more

Spent a few hours here and really enjoyed the atmosphere. The stuff was friendly and very knowledgeable about the options available. Place was clean and lively. read more

Out of all the beers we tasted there was only one that I thought was really good it was a barrel aged about 10 percent can't remember the name they seem to have a lot of the Bavarian style beers which is not my style we got the sampler and I didn't get a couple of their IPAs cuz my wife doesn't like those and the ambience for a brewery is not there has been an industrial area which is not a problem but inside is a small bar small set of speakers no games I have just been to a lot of other breweries that have a better ambience. Everyone that was there while we were there which was about 4 or 5 couples stayed for like 1 sample and growler fill and looked like they were ready to leave its not really a place to hang out but not disappointed that I tried it. read more

Amazing beer, super friendly staff and great atmosphere. We had a 40th Birthday Party for my husband there. The staff worked together with me to create the perfect event. We had so much fun!! The bar personnel was incredible and everything was amazing. The beer flights were incredible. read more

Me and my friends love the tasting room! The atmosphere is laid back but also fun. They have a great selection of beers and if you can't decide what to get then you can get a reasonably priced flight and try a few beers! Also on Saturday nights they have Geeks Who Drink Trivia, which is always fun. You can compete to win prizes like beer! read more

Great beer selection and very decent size brewery. Other breweries in the area are rather small and it's sometimes hard to find a spot to sit down. Here it's plenty! read more

Looking for amazing beers for an event? In our quest for the perfect beers for our wedding, we found Left Coast thru recommendation from friends. We could not have been happier with the options and staff, from the sampling to the picking up of the kegs. We highly suggest getting some growlers because your guests will want to bring some home...if there is any left! read more
