    The burgers were good! Service was awesome and the drinks were great too! It's a cool vibe with lots to see! Another plus is that they brew all their beers in house too. It's awesome. Check it out sometime!

    Ok, first time at this awesome brewery! And let me tell you it was incredible. The service was top notch and our server, Jared was exceptional! I first ordered an IPA that was their House Beer and it was excellent. Then I went to the Daou Chardonnay which stole the show! For food I ordered the Brisket French Dip Sliders with Truffle Parmesan Fries and I couldn't finish it all. Besides that, it was delicious! This is a must visit restaurant. We were watching the Stanley Cup game on their wide screen TV's and the bar was awesome. Don't get me wrong it's loud in there, but so worth it because the vibe is killer! Check this badass bar out and eat their food because it's the bomb!!!

    Station Craft in Dana Point is a great spot with an awesome vibe. There is plenty of seating both outside and inside, and both areas have TVs so you can catch the latest games no matter where you sit. The service was excellent. Our server took the time to walk us through the beer menu and made great recommendations based on what we like. Even though they are a brewery, it was nice to see that they also offer cocktails. I had a flight and honestly enjoyed every beer we tried. We also ordered the Scotch egg, and it was delicious. If we were not on our way to a family lunch, we definitely would have ordered more food because everything looked tempting. Overall, great vibes, great service, and great libations and food. Highly recommend stopping by.

    Caesar salad with chicken + chicken sliders
    Sydney H.

    I arrived with a party of 8 for lunch and we were quickly seated. This place is clean and spacious with good drinks, but unfortunately we had a disappointing experience. The food here is expensive and subpar, not worth the price for what you're getting. We ordered the brussels sprouts and crispy cauliflower for the table to share. The brussels sprouts were mushy and oily, and the cauliflower had an overly smoky flavor that I didn't care for much. For my entree, I ordered the caesar salad and added chicken for an additional charge, but the chicken was dry, fatty, and had this off-putting soggy skin attached to it. My sister had the chicken sliders which were also very dry and not very flavorful. There was also a gratuity charge due to the size of our party which I totally understand, but the service wasn't great. Our server checked on us one time in the time that we were there. She was friendly though. Brewery food isn't always the best out there, but it is disappointing to receive something that doesn't taste very good for a high price. Sadly won't come back here.

    Fried pickles
    Megan F.

    Consistently great place. Started with the fried pickles, which were excellent- salty and crunchy and not at all soggy, and the Ruby Lantern- well balanced! For lunch, the Smoked Brisket Sliders were great. Wish the sauce that more horseradish as it was a little bland. Still tasty though. The service was great- attentive but they don't shoo you out the door. The patio is dog friendly, which is nice too. Friendly and easy going vibe. Will definitely return again as this place never disappoints.

    Chilaquiles with brisket
    Nancy E.

    Cute place, plenty of large tables for large groups. There's a large screen tv and a few smaller TVs for Sunday football. I didn't care for their bloody Mary's but their chilaquiles with brisket was sooo good. Their beans are full of flavor too!! Bloody Mary was very thick and we even had to order an extra shot of vodka' Staff was friendly and took great care of us!

    Brussel sprouts
    Mitchel C.

    This place was underwhelming, I think it would've been better to just get beers and watch the game here but we decided to do dinner. Our server wasn't really attentive after getting drinks for us, only saw them at the beginning and end of service. Steak wasn't that flavorful, but the Brussel sprouts were fantastic. Would come back just for those! Overall this is more of a sports bar/brewery vibe and I think if I come back I would try the wings or nachos, as those looked really good.

    My favorite... the Waverider!! So good!!

    I decided to try this restaurant tonight because every time I drive by I see a very large TV inside and since tonight was the opening game of the 2025 NFL season my friend and I decided to have dinner here. When we arrived, the restaurant was about 25% full but within the first quarter of the game, the restaurant was packed! If you're coming for dinner a reservation would be good and you should know that parking is very limited so plan for extra parking time. The interiors are very open and comfortable, especially their dining chairs! I love how light and bright it is in here giving the perfect SoCal experience of indoor/outdoor dining. It definitely seems like a very fun gathering place for locals and visitors alike... and I love that they have the big brewing barrels in plain sight! However, because of all the hard surfaces, it is a very loud restaurant when it's full! Because we got here so early tonight we were seated right away and our server came over quickly to get our drink order. As for the food, I would say it's elevated bar food with some very tasty sounding dishes like Sesame Salmon w/ Toasted Farro that I will definitely be back to try! I also like some of the fun appetizers like the giant Bavarian Pretzel, Fried Pickles and Crispy Cauliflower. Tonight I tried the Spicy Chicken Sandwich with Mac and Cheese as my side dish which was good, but for me the sandwich was a little too wet with both coleslaw and dressing on it. My craft cocktail... the Wave Rider, is one of my absolute favorites! It is one of the most delicious drink I have ever had. So for sure I shall return even if only for a cocktail! One thing that I would love to see this restaurant add is the pizzas that they have at their San Clemente location. For me, the San Clemente location has the best pizza ever!! if you're interested in trying the San Clemente location please note that it is a very small restaurant with some patio seating and limited menu. However, they have a fair amount of parking! The menu is basically small appetizers a few salads but the best pizzas and if I remember right, they only have beer and wine where the Dana Point location has a full bar.

    Wings
    Danielle M.

    We went here for dinner and it ended up being happy hour! They had great happy hour food and drink specials. We got the Brisket Scotch Egg and it was loaded with tender brisket and sauce. The cocktails were delicious! The Summer Solstice was the perfect fruity, summery drink and you can't go wrong with their whiskey sour! We got the happy hour wings and they were perfectly seasoned with a dry rub. The ranch and hot sauce paired perfectly with the wings! Service was quick even though the restaurant was packed with customers. It's the perfect spot to have a beer or bring your family for dinner!

    Spicy chicken sando
    Maribel T.

    INCREDIBLE FOOD! Omg these dry rub wings were FIRE!! Idk what combo of seasoning they used but... I'll be back for more!! Make sure to order the Carolina bbq sauce on the side! BOMB!! Spicy chicken sando was so crispy and juicy! ALSOOO ORDER your sweet potato waffle fries EXTRA CRISPY!:D the bartender was awesome! Made the best Mezcal blackberry drink!! The open garage door concept here is perfect for the beautiful weather days! Def consider this place for the food vibes and drinks! They make everything in House!:)

    Brussels, burgers, and calamari
    Melissa L.

    Delicious restaurant right off of PCH in Dana point. Dog friendly vibes, it seemed like almost half the guests brought their fur babies. The food came out rather quickly and service was 100%. We ordered, Brussels sprouts, calamari, and different burgers. Everything was delicious! After eating a filling meal, you can walk around Dana Point and enjoy the breathtaking ocean views!

    Sliders and potatoe salad
    Renee T.

    Amazing! First time visiting on a beautiful California day, perfect weather... restaurant sits in Dana Point, the layout of wonderful and great ambience. We tried the fried pickles with beer cheese and ranch, killer! The food was amazing! I had an aperol spritz, amazing .... Our waiter was so kind as well! Will for sure come back and thank you for offering veterans discounts!!! ‍‍

    Pretzel Garlic parm fries Stout Sour Hazy
    Jade S.

    We came on thanksgiving to watch some football and have some drinks/snacks. The staff was nice and took care of us. The drinks were all delicious. The pretzel was good but the cheese sauce was a little funky. I ended up just using mustard instead. The garlic fries were a great snack with perfect crispiness and they didn't skimp out on the garlic! They had the football game on all the tvs and 1 project on the wall but the proportions were off. Otherwise everything was great! Would definitely come back

Service was incredible. They kept checking on us to ensure our evening was perfect. This is a great spot for big groups!

    UPDATE: After receiving a response from the GM, I took a look through some of the other negative…read morereviews and noticed a pattern: nearly every criticism seems to receive a lengthy explanation or rebuttal defending the policy or practice being questioned. And respectfully, I think that's part of the disconnect here. When customers repeatedly tell you that something about their experience feels unwelcoming, explaining why they're wrong to feel that way isn't necessarily the same thing as listening to the feedback. Of course children shouldn't be running through servers carrying heavy trays, climbing on bars or fences, or lighting leaves on fire. I don't think any reasonable parent would disagree with that. But none of those examples remotely describe what happened during our visit, nor were we suggesting children should have free rein of the restaurant. My concern was--and remains--the punitive three-strike system and the way it's being enforced for fairly ordinary kid behavior. There is an enormous amount of space between "children setting things on fire" and "a kid got out of their chair," and that nuance seems to be getting lost. We live in an incredibly family-heavy community filled with busy restaurants that somehow manage to maintain safe environments for their employees, children, and other guests without making parents feel like they're accumulating demerits throughout their meal. And that's really the feedback: a policy can be created with safety in mind and still be poorly executed. If multiple longtime customers are telling you that the experience of being on the receiving end feels punitive and unwelcoming, perhaps that's worth considering rather than simply explaining why the policy exists.

It attracts a really chill crowd: there was literally a patron with her newborn. Very family friendly, warm, and positive. I went here for trivia night, and we had a total blast. There's no food at the brewery since it's a smaller space and it's really not in a location built for heavy duty kitchen work, but they were totally cool with us bringing food in and even gave us recommendations for local spots! I'm not even a beer drinker but I enjoyed trying their different offerings and was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked them! They even have a little mini arcade setup and cards against humanity. They put a ton of thought into curating a space for community and good old fashioned fun. Restrooms were SO clean and there were a men's and women's room which feels so rare at bars! The women's room even had multiple stalls, which was so convenient. Pitchers of water were free (and quite frankly, the water was delicious), and there was fun, clean music playing. Highly recommend if you're looking for a fun place for all ages to enjoy. It's hard to find a place that's welcoming to non-drinkers and younger people, while also still offering plenty of alcoholic options. So many establishments strive to create the third place, and Left Coast Brewing Company hits it on the head.

The "comedians" spent the majority of the time talking about dick and pussy in the most crude, low-effort way possible. It wasn't clever or edgy--it was just lazy and disgusting. I left early and have zero interest in ever returning. What makes it worse is that the brewery allowed this kind of show in their space. The staff should be embarrassed that they booked (or allowed) something this low-quality and inappropriate. Service wasn't great either. When we went to order drinks, the bartender pointed us to the "order here" spot at the bar. We stood right at the front of that line for a solid five minutes before anyone even acknowledged us. Overall, a disappointing experience from start to finish. Won't be back. I almost wish I could go back to the brewery and get my money back, but I know that's not possible.
