    STEPH JUDGEMENT: Nice chill brewery with friendly people and decent beers. The last time I was here it was still Timeless Pints, which I used to frequent when I worked in the area. The decor had changed, but the place still felt familiar. It was very mellow on a Wednesday evening, which was fine with us. We were there to meet up with a friend and I decided on a flight, as I always do when visiting a brewery for the first time. I got: 562 hazy Golden Lighthfoot Golden Ale Latch hook Jesus American lager Jerk lessons west coast ipa The hazy was quite good and my favorite, and the rest were fine, if not totally memorable. Hubby: smells like friendship Amber lager (seemed a little more bitter than expected) No food truck on this night. With so many good breweries in town I can't say this is a destination-type place for us, but If someone wanted to meet here again I'd have no problems coming back.

    Very chill laid back and lo-key. Prices are decent but the ambiance is the best. Got a sweet parking spot and service was excellent.

    My beer.

    This is a difficult review to write. Mostly because, I loved Timeless Pints, the brewery that Syncopated purchased and sent TP owners Chris and Mary into retirement (hoping? Hi C and M, hope you are well!). As a loyal TP fan, a TP fanboy?... I wanted to NOT love Syncopated, the place that took MY PLACE away. My "Cheers". Freaking Stacy! How can I POSSIBLY like the space WITHOUT her??? Except: the beer, the ambiance, the patronage, the food at Syncopated. All five stars. As a beer drinker, the variety rates 5/5. As a dark beer aficionado, Syncopated is as good as it gets in LBC. 'Coffee Pants' is extraordinary. Coffee and vanilla notes and smooth as H-E-double hockey sticks, at 7.3% - as close to a perfect coffee porter as you'll find in Long Beach. Or So Cal. Or Anywhere. In the mood for a less dark but strong brew? Go Five 6.2 Hazy IPA (yes, 6.2%) or Jerk Lessons West Coast IPA (6.7%). Both very good. Food: Sync doesn't make their own, but they do invite food trucks regularly and there are lots of delivery options nearby which they welcome. Recommend Me-N-Ed's pizza, just expect a 45-60 minute wait. Order when you get there. Overall... I was not looking forward to writing this, but I was compelled (by Coffee Pants?) to do so. Try Syncopated. They will not disapoint.

    Superb local craft beer location featuring Vegan food trucks on Monday, pinball machines, corn hole, shuffle boats and excellent staff on Saturday, we only found it accidentally on a bike ride. Ambiance excellent and great prices!

    Super dog friendly too!

    Two industry vets teamed up and opened up a small batch brewery with 14 different styles that rotate regularly. Awesome event space with occasional live music, swap meets, food trucks, and just a lot of fun

    The location is small but comfortable. Love the vibe there. Had fun having my drinks and playing their games. Service was great! Pretty cool location to check out.

    Fun spot to grab a drink. Hands down my go to brewery. Beer is delicious, staff is amazing and they have fun things to do. Skee ball is free, board games to play, Darts are cheap to play. They have bands a few times a month and foot trucks most nights.

    This brewery is not associated with the previous brewery! The head brewer has the same name as the old brewer, but don't let that mislead you. It's worth checking out! They have a nice crowd of people that come in for bingo and are testing out some other events to get people in the door. Customer service was great. Don't skip on this place. I enjoyed the ""Heading for the light " which is a dry hopped dry blond. It has a nice aroma and subtle sweetness that really compliments the style of beer. I also enjoyed their brown ales

    Food truck pairings.

    Been coming here since their soft opening and thought I already left a review! Syncopated took over the old location of Timeless Pints on the border of LB and Lakewood over by the airport. It's tucked away in an industrial center, like most breweries, and has a decent amount of parking. You'll often find a food truck parked and lots of outdoor seating and a well-ventilated indoor tasting area. Chris, formerly of Ballast Point, is the mastermind brewer behind Syncopated. He was able to pair his passion with Jason of Dutch's Brewhouse, and a winner was born. There is a large draft selection and a variety of beer to please all palates. If you're lucky, you can also catch their sponsored ice hockey team, The Shredders, over at Lakewood Ice. Cheers!

    Very, very kind service. I think the beers taste great! An average brewery size, small with a little porch area. Indoor decor is super cool! Had the Sailor's Legs (strong), Coffeemaker (a little lighter), and Brown Ale. All very good stouts and dark beers! Parking is limited.

    Great beer. Great service. Love the atmosphere here local vibe. Dog and family friendly. Food trucks, live music on most weekends. Great place to bring the whole family to enjoy a delicious cold one. Brewer is very talented, knowledgeable, and makes amazing beer to be enjoyed over and over again. Take your beer to go with a crawler 32oz can or bring your own growler to fill. Beer ready to enjoy at home. Come on in and check it out for yourself. I highly recommend Syncopated.

Derek, the head brewer, was awesome to work with to get things set up for us. The pizza vendor, Watson's, offered a great variety of freshly baked pizza throughout the afternoon. Everyone had a great time and commented on how good the brews were. The brewery space has TVs showing local sports and cool artwork throughout. The leather rocking chairs are a must-try. Dog friendly and parking is convenient in the parking lot or in the additional lot adjacent to the brewery.

My husband and I came in about 45 minutes after they'd opened, and I feel like this is important because we weren't there waiting to be let in, nor were we keeping them past posted hours. Anyway- when we got there no one else was there. Empty. And when we walked in the bartender was sitting done on her phone, annnd no greeting. Okay, maybe she didn't see us come in? Nope, she got up, walked to the bar.... andddddd nothing. No hello, no hi how you guys doing... and her back is turned to us Okkkay, so I throw out a "Hey, how are you?" Nothing. Staring at us... wtfffffff And my husband chimes in with "Are we the first ones of the day?" "No." She says.... ........ ........ ........ ....(gen z staring intensifies) .... ........ So I say, "well I guess I try the blah blah blah" Sorry to interrupt your Tik Tok scrolling lady. Beers were decent . The Hazy IPA was awesome. They had a pizza spot that seems like it opens a little later, like maybe after 5? Place is very close to my house so we may give it another shot and hope for another staff. Don't make me root for AI service lady. A little human interaction is good for all of us.

Love their wide open dining space, kids area and even dance floor. Restrooms require a code, but you can get them from any of the restaurants/long-standing vendors. Food variety is perfect with awesome eats at Tacos Arandas (veggie friendly), Barrio (our friend Sid's favorite), Un Rinconcito Argentino (an instant hit with my Argentinian), Pana's Cafe, Panda Sal's, ChocoFaberries, Off Duty Beer + Wine and others. They even have a full arcade and ample parking in back. Service is top tier. Even the employees who help keep SteelCraft thriving are personable. Family friendly, friend group friendly, pet friendly and very welcoming of everyone. Definitely making Downtown Bellflower even more of a hub. Free Wifi. Free Parking, including street parking with no restrictions after 6pm. Live Music on certain days as well as events. Open at 7am daily at the corner of Bellflower Blvd/Oak Street. Closing hours vary, though go until 11pm Friday - Saturday, and until 9 or 10 pm on other nights. Hope to see a couple more of these in Greater LA especially in big hub areas like the San Fernando Valley, San Gabriel Valley and/or DTLA in the future.

    Nice little area in downtown Bellflower. This is similar to the one in Long Beach, Bixby Knolls…read morearea. It's nice that parking is accessible in the front on Bellflower Blvd. and in the back parking lots. There are areas where you can sit on stools or on picnic benches. Also several corners where there's shaded trees and a swing bench. It's nice to have the eating area in the middle of the courtyard, but I really don't like the dirt area. But I get that it's probably easier for spills to be soaked up so people don't slip and it's less maintenance. If you're a fur-parent don't worry, there's even a couple bowls from which your pet can get fresh water from their drinking fountain. Or just bring your own bowl and fill it up at the water station. It's really a pet friendly place. We brought our Shih Tzu along and saw another dog sitting on the bench. Food choices are good, you can enjoy a beer and burger, tacos, Filipino/Korean fusion, Coffee, Boba, Argentinian food. There's also a big screen which they televise sports games. Price wise it's about $15-$20 per person for a complete meal.

On the day that I went, they had a mariscos vendor that sold delicious ceviches. Note that during peak dinner hours, the wait times for pizza from Thunderbolt can be close to 30 minutes. I went with Ambitious Ale's Central Perk, which was a blonde ale with madagascar vanilla and guatemalan coffee notes, and these flavors were surprisingly present and not subtle. They had tons of unique flavor options here and I definitely would love to come back to try some cold ones with some pizza. Their fruity options were pretty popular with my work group. Their Jollibeer (inspired by the Peach and Mango pies at Jollibee) was a lager with mango and peach puree. The beers I had were crisp, full flavored, and ice cold. Perfect at the end of a work week! It's really nice that they have a nice space in the back to host a group of two or a group of twenty. This is a great pillar in the Bixby Knolls neighborhood.

Then proceeded to raise her hand and make hand gestures because she was annoyed. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!!! She needs to learn customer service, and it clearly shows in your reviews that she continues to give bad customer service. Please do better!

    We came to meet some friends for drinks and a pizza. I remember walking by this place a while back…read moreand noticed it. It was quite lovely on the patio. Mid week when we arrived which wasn't too crazy. There was no one on the patio which was nice as it gave us first choice for a seat...lol... Everyone was seating inside. The place itself isn't that big. You have the bar area with some bar seating. Then there's a couple of tables inside and of course the patio which is along the sidewalk. Personally I prefer sitting outside for the people watching. The staff were all amazing and very friendly. Places like that make the experiences more enjoyable. You want someone who is friendly and respectful. As we were there early, we grabbed one of the beer which they have quite a good selection on tap. There's also wine if you're not into beer. When it came time to grab some food, we were able to get a table inside. Majority of the breweries tends to serve pretty much the same things, pizza sandwiches and salads. No complaints here. Simple food goes a long way. There were a couple of us so we grabbed a few things to share. Started off with the pretzel balls with cheese dip and honey mustard and the chips with queso cheese dip. Pretzel was tasty and outdid the queso dip. Pizzas of course which were pretty big in sizes. A couple of the pizzas and a salad did four of us with leftovers. Their Hawaiian pizza was quite tasty and was finished. We also ordered one of the mushroom pizzas with an egg. It was tasty but a little on the salty side. The arugula salad was delicious. Simple but tasty. And then there was ham pizza I believe with onions and peppercini. That was also a favorite of the night. Overall, the place was quite fun. Not a big brewery and more intimate. The crowd was great and as most places are very kid and family friendly. There was couple of kids when we arrived. Service was great. Food and drinks were enjoyed and the service and staff were excellent. Street parking available along the front but also along the neighborhood.
