The place has a really cool, laid-back vibe spacious, industrial style, and super inviting. It got busy, but the staff handled it well and were friendly the whole time. I don't drink, but my friends all grabbed beers and kept saying how good they were (they're definitely known for their craft beers). Everyone was happy, which says a lot! I just enjoyed the atmosphere and the energy of the crowd. There's plenty of seating, clean bathrooms (always important), and even a separate room with a stage, so it looks like they host live music and events too. Big plus: it feels like a great spot to hang out after a run or meet up with friends. I've also heard they often have food trucks, which makes it even better. Overall, great vibes, good service, and a fun place to unwind. Would definitely come back with the group!

Great Vibes, Games, Karaoke & Churros -- We'll Be Back…read more Came to check out Boomtown Brewery with my boyfriend and had such an awesome time. Even on a soggy, rainy day, this place delivered great vibes. We arrived a bit early and got to explore both rooms, which was a fun experience in itself. The first room had karaoke, long tables and benches, cozy sofas, dart machines, a photo booth, games, and restrooms. It's also very pet-friendly--as long as your dog is leashed. They even have water bowls for pets, which we loved. The second room to the right has board games, two pool tables, high tops, more seating, sofas, and the main bar. The whole space has a rustic, industrial feel with lots of cool hanging plants, and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. Everyone was friendly and kind. There was a food truck on site, and we also got lucky with a mobile churro vendor called Hippie Churro--we ordered two churros (one strawberry-filled and one plain), and they were delicious. $7 well spent. We enjoyed a michelada and an IPA, played Jenga, listened to music, and caught some karaoke performances. Overall, an amazing night with great energy and a solid setup for hanging out, playing games, and just enjoying the moment. We'll definitely be back soon.

Finding Hidden Gems: Art District Brewing in Little Tokyo, LA…read more One of my favorite rituals when traveling is hunting down the best local breweries -- and Los Angeles did not disappoint. Tucked away in the vibrant heart of Little Tokyo, Art District Brewing instantly caught my attention. The atmosphere alone made it worth the visit, with that perfect blend of industrial cool and neighborhood charm that only LA seems to pull off. The tap selection was impressive -- thoughtfully curated and clearly crafted with intention. But honestly? The food is what stole the show. I always love leaning on a server's recommendations, and this time it paid off beautifully. The chicken tenders arrived golden, perfectly crispy on the outside, and impossibly juicy within. These weren't your average bar bites -- they were the kind of dish that makes you pause mid-conversation just to appreciate the moment. Whether you're a craft beer obsessive or simply someone who appreciates great food in a great setting, Art District Brewing belongs on your LA itinerary. Next time you find yourself wandering Little Tokyo, do yourself a favor and walk through those doors. You can thank me later.

There are two bars - cider bar and beer bar. They are separated by the patio area and both have different vibes, which is really cool. The music was nice when I was there. There are also screens with sports playing, which is a big bonus. The calendar on their website also shows all the events and even the food vendors, which is convenient. I had the pilsner and it was delicious. Haven't tried the ciders yet but definitely looks good, and it's something you don't see often. There is a small parking lot but also street parking in the area if anything.

We were informed by security at the front that our 2-year-old could come in but only if he was held the entire time, and if he was caught walking around we would be asked to leave. They're very dog friendly, but beware if your dog isn't a fan of cats or if you're allergic as they do have cats that freely roam the premises. The beer was fine. If you're a fan of lighter beers I would recommend Homage Brewing, Arrow Lodge, or Angel City (soon to close), all of which are in the area and are very kid and dog friendly. Additionally there is extremely limited parking available in the area, so be prepared to pay $20 for valet.

The staff here is incredible in a fabulous location. Even though you had to fight for parking, the brews were good and so were the vibes. The food trucks were great! The seating has ample space above the place and below. The best part was being able to walk around to the Truly LA bar or even the arcade down the street. I need to stop by one last time to say goodbye, but you were loved. You were magnificent. Thanks for the good beers and laughs! Until next time, partner.

The environment is relaxed and inviting, and they have a solid selection of beers to choose from. It's also cool that they bring in vendors, though they do seem to wrap up around 6pm. Just a heads up: they don't serve food inside, but there are food trucks right outside, so you won't go hungry. The only real downside is that you can't open a tab, you have to pay every time you order, which can get a little inconvenient. Still, a great place to chill, grab a beer, and enjoy the atmosphere.

Great weekend afternoon spot for a brew and food from their onsite restaurant, Chico's Tacos…read more I love that it's housed in a former Firestone tire shop and they left many of the old elements in tact. I opted for the blackberry cider this time. It was refreshing with just a hint of sweetness. It complemented the country fried wings with Korean bbq sauce. My friend got a trio of tacos, battered fish, chicken, and jackfruit that he thoroughly enjoyed. We easily found parking on the next block. And that both All Season and Chico's accept inKind for payment is another plus. The spot is great for gatherings, small or large, families and dogs and the atmosphere is festive but can get loud.

So much space to sit indoors or outdoors- indoors they show sports games, have arcade games, and my personal fav a huge Photo Booth!! It's Los Angeles so be prepared to struggle with parking but it's worth it; simply pay attention to signs. When coming in they ask to show ID, you and your group and grab any available table and the bar is open to start a tab at any moment! The service was quick and easy, the bartenders were super helpful with any questions we may have had and the prices were reasonable. We didn't try any food but we had plenty of drinks and they were great! I had a Lychee Martini & a "Hot Girrrrl Summer" drink and before I knew it they were goneeeee. Such a good time with my girls; chatting, drinking and taking pics- Will definitely miss the vibes but I will be backkkkk!

They are pet and kid friendly and involved with and supportive of the surrounding community and artsy vibe culture. They have a small indoor seating area and a cozy shaded side patio with a coming soon expanded section to make the patio space larger. The vibes are always fun, especially when they host different food and artsy vendors and live DJ's. The staff is not overly friendly, but they get the job done; they greet you, they serve your beer, they pick up the empties and repeat. Unfortunately, there is only one unisex restroom, so depending on how busy they are or if there is a popular themed event you can expect to be waiting in a line for a while. Another thing to mention, there is very limited street parking, so patience is key and/or walking shoes for when you find something in the surrounding streets.
