Everything just about perfect. Good Service Patio seating on a cool spring day. Good people watching. Vegan lemon pepper chicken wings, Impossible crunchwrap, and Loco Moco bowl all outstanding. Great draft beers. Amiable company. Life can be good! read more

My vegetarian wife wanted to check out Beelman's last Sunday so that's exactly where we found ourselves. Located on Spring St in DTLA, this extremely cool looking bar/restaurant is filled with old school pictures of musicians and actors and has a really retro feel to it. It's the kind of place that you walk in, look at the menu, order at the bar, and then take a seat and wait for the food to come out to you, which I am a huge fan of since I love paying before I eat. The menu here has a huge vegan section with burgers, sandwiches, apps, wraps, and even some bowls. I ended up ordering a Borracho Fries, which is a big ol' plate of French Fries, house made pico de gallo, cheddar cheese, filet mignon (which kind of just tastes like cheesesteak meat honestly) and it was a dang slap in the taste buds. I'm a big fat sucker for french fry based meals and this Borracho Fries were really, really, really good. Great taste, crispy fries, and whatever smackin' sauce is. Overall, Beelman's was a great experience and definitely somehwere we will be returning to in the future with some friends. The bar itself looked really cool, the staff was super friendly, and the delicious food really topped it all off. Come to DTLA and enjoy some great food! read more

My friends, my husband and I went to see a movie at Million Dollar theater, and we decided to have dinner at the restaurant. The sport bar is an old school vibe, kind British vibe. The service is nice, friendly and fast. Our impossible burger was delicious and my friends chicken wings were delicious as well. The price is average for nowadays. Good place in DTLA to stop to eat or a beer. read more

What a cool spot. Saw that they have tvs and we were trying to catch the Spurs game. Open seating and we ended up at a community sort of table. The beers are great, the food is amazing! Had the Toridashi spiced dry wings and wow!! Our friends ordered the boracho fries and loved it. We also got the garlic tots. A must! Will definitely return for some more fun here. read more

Beelmans has been a go to for us for a while now Such a cool vide lots of great photos all over the walls. The food is absolutely delicious. I live the vegan menu nom nom wrap is so good spices hit perfectly add some fries with ketchup and cholula and its perfect. The buffalo cauliflower is one if the best I always share these with my husband and we are completely satisfied every time. West coast IPA is my go to FYI. Tonight the music was OFF total 80s vibe and not the good vibe. Ugh. read more

Popped in here for a while with my husband a few weeks ago before ending our night. The decor and lights caught my attention. It was pretty empty. Drinks were delicious, that husband and I ended up going from "one last drink" before coming in here at about 10pm, to staying until closing at 2. We will definitely be back. read more

If you are catching a show next door or are in the dtla area, this place is fun. They specialize in vegetarian appetizers but they do have tasty meat options. The vibe is one of a sports bar-we caught a game along with a mixture of local residents and business folks. We have been here several times and gives us a great place to eat and grab a drink. read more

I try to visit Beelman's any time I'm in LA. The downtown location is really convenient if you're already going to a downtown event. I've had the tacos, and a few of the wraps/sandwiches and everything has been excellent. I would say they have some of the best vegan food in down town LA. I like sitting in the front patio since there's usually a breeze. I don't drink alcohol so I can't really comment on the drinks. read more

So glad we stopped by after an event in DTLA! I ordered the Oaxaca Mule and my friend got a sangria, and we split the Rodeo Burger with onion rings. Everything was so delicious! Honestly one of the best burgers and onion rings I've had this year. I low-key regretted sharing because it was that good lol. I loved the wall decor in the bathroom too! It wasn't too busy so we were able to order rig by away at the bar. Definitely coming back next time I'm in the area! read more

I wanted to love this spot, but I didn't exactly. Overall, it is nice and I appreciate the extensive vegan options (although it used to be fully vegan then added the non-vegan). The food was good but very average, especially for example the fries which are basically crinkle fries out of a frozen bag. The drinks were good so thumbs up for that. We had a straw-basil margarita, frozen blood orange daiquiri and a lavender frozen drink (all pictured here). The place is a bit small, we were out in little patio because we had our dog with us, arrival experience was somewhat chaotic as we had to figure out how to order, get our menus and all. Room for improvement but ok if you just want to chill and nothing special. read more

I love going to DTLA just to eat here, it's such a laid back atmosphere where you can get a sports bar vibe. Also the plant based food menu is amazing! We ordered the vegan lemon pepper wings, taco trio and "That's a Tasty Burger". The name of the burger tells it all, it was the first to be eaten! The wings were good but I do wish they added more of the lemon pepper seasoning. The Taco Trio was delicious! My favorite was the Citrus Spare "Rib", I've never had a taco with that flavor profile before. The Al Pastor and Crispy Tofu taco both tied for second place. This place is hidden in plain sight and I hope more people visit! read more

My fellow SoCal Yelp OCAs and I had an amazing hang at Beelman's! That's right y'all, the incomparable Quintin E (SFV & IE OCA), Miori (SGV OCA), and Alyssa (OC OCA) popped in for some brews and kikis. This is a good option if there's a Vegan in your group as there are some Vegan friendly menu items in the mix. Now me, I un-puroposefully went protein free but the tots...they just call to you sometimes! The tots at Beelman's are top! Top tots! Top tier tots! I ordered a full meal but filled up on the tots, took the rest to go and enjoyed later at home. Really friendly bartender! You order at the bar (perfect craft beer options, mind you) and then grab yourself a seat bellied up or at one of their booths. Beerwise, I had a Firestone Parabola (14.1% imperial stout) for $11 and a Begin To Arrive from Creature Comforts (7% ipa), just as examples of how stellar their beer list is. So if you need a spot in DTLA to grab a drink and you love beer, cockies or wines, with or without a vegan friend, this is a great spot for yah! read more

A cool and cute little bar setting with booths to have a bite! I recommend the blackberry mule and tachos- they're so good you can't even tell they're vegan! read more

Such a pleasant surprise! I was downtown and looking for some late night Vegan food after an event, thankfully I found Beelman's. I ordered the buffalo cauliflower and totchos. Both were great. The service was cool and the restaurant has a dim lit and relaxing atmosphere. I'd definetely visit again! read more

Beelman's - Buffallo Cauliflower and Totchos. - Pubs Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Beelman's, I'm back!! This gastropub will always get my love... with creative eats that included a 70/30 mostly plant-based menu of savory bites and delights. It's Rustic Pub chic and Downtown LA in the best possible way. A spacious, inviting blend of tavern meets trend. Beelman has a great menu of new American fusion style noms.. Including bowls, burgers, entrees, sandwiches, tacos, wraps and appetizers aka Bar Snacks: definitely try the Totchos, Buffalo Cauliflower, Philly Pretzel and the Vegan Chicken Wings when they're not out : _ ( Stopped in for the first time in a long time with a foodie party crew of 4! Alyssa, Miori and Sarah were the perfect end of the week crew to revisit an old favorite with. Miori enjoyed the regular Wings, Sarah had the B.L.A.S.T. and Alyssa had those perfect Buffalo Cauliflower crispy florets w/ plant based ranch (egg and dairy free). We had cool brews, mules and drink specials. For me it was rose as well as frose all day! Some great craft brews and a mule or two for everyone else in the crew. Our service was amazing - you do order everything you want at the bar where you can also leave your tab open (they return your card to you right away and you just let them know when you wish to close out). Good music, good vibes and plenty of seating to choose from - seat yourself inside at a booth, bar or shared long tables. The patio outside has some great options as well - really nice and well lit (especially at night). Restrooms still as still alternative indie and well kept. The temp is mostly room, but they will adjust to beat the heat and/or humidity (much of that lately). Parking is street or lots only - there is a small lot across the street off of Spring as well as some options nearby on neighboring streets. Only a five minute stroll from Pershing (Square) Station. I miss the Poor Man's Korean BBQ Tots on the menu, but love the revamp and new items too. Definitely stopping in again soon, hopefully you will too! read more

I came here through a recommendation from a friend that talked highly about the place. I was somewhat disappointed as whatever she raved about seemed non-existent. She recommended it for the awesome cocktails and the exquisite vegan cuisine. When I dined there they had very basic vegan dishes that were not worth the price. Such as sandwiches and tater tots. The menu was also not exclusively vegan or vegetarian. Not that this matters as I am neither, but I am always up for trying different food especially when it was so highly recommended. The cocktails were also basic and nothing special. First I thought my friend just had a bad taste, but then I found out that they changed their menu and that the food is not that great anymore. read more

Lots of vegetarian/vegan options, impressive draft list. Cool ambience with hint of Irish pub but much more food options for everyone

I love the ambiance; the cocktails are always top tier. It's the perfect place to have some drinks on the weekend and bring a date. Also, great specials on the beers read more

Came here late on a Sunday to grab a drink with a friend. I didn't try the food actually, but it was available. Typical dive bar vibes. At the time we went, we were instructed to order drinks at the bar but someone stopped at our table to give menus. It was chill and not a ton of folks on a Sunday night. read more

I am developing a travel blog with a focus on great food. I only put no more than 5 Pros and 5 Cons for all of my reviews. They are honest and well-researched. Pros: **Atmosphere: It looks like a regular pub with the low lighting and all inside. Bur it has Vegan food and drinks. We ate outside on picnic tables. **Food: For pub food we are really surprised how delicious and tasty the food was--much better than the typical pub with meat dishes. *Dishes: Totchos(addictive), Hummus Plate, Buddha Bowl, Viet Nom Nom Wrap(unique), Buffalo chicken Wrap. All very fresh. **Service: A little confusing since you had to order at a take out window if you were sitting outside. But overall friendly. Food came out very quickly. Cons: **Location: It is downtown unfortunately. Hopefully, LA city can do more for the unhoused. Sadly, you see a lot people roaming the streets. read more

Always a great experience. Onion rings were great, crunchy and well fried. Absolutely love the chicken wrap (vegan). It gave an Asian egg roll taste. I love the ciders but sadly they disappear. Just gotta catch them on the right day. read more

This place is a cool sports bar, they also serve food. I went here to watch the super bowl with a friend, it was so fun and great energy there was a big tv screen projector screen which was very easy to see so that was awesome, even if it was crowded. The bar staff were good vibes. I got a plate of fries and they were so good! I would come here again to watch sports. read more

Get the pickle back shot. Trust me! Spicy pickle juice made with their homemade hot sauce... so good. I could totally use that as a marinade. Popped in along the way on our bar hopping tour for a friend's birthday. Luckily, we got there before it started getting busy. Plenty of seating available. We only stayed for two quick round of drinks, but I'll be back...for sure. read more

I think the vegan food was pretty good, coming from someone who doesn't normally eat vegan and the beer selection had some great choices. I also really enjoy the large patio with my dog. read more

For vegan food this was great!! I've never been to a vegan pub before. It is a self serve place, you go up to the bar place your order and they will bring it to you. The bartenders are really nice. I loved the decor inside and there was really nice outside seating. I would honestly come again, the food was pretty good and so were the drinks!! I really liked the strawberry freeze :) read more

The manager was extremely rude for some reason and it ruined the evening. She was angry when we needed help. Her name is Val steer clear of her and this restaurant. Shes looking to have conflict with customers and things can escalate quickly because she gets angry domineering and accusatory. Shes in a very bad place mentally. Even her employees are afraid of her read more

This place was such a good find for me. Whoever is on aux needs a raise!! Lots of alt/indie music, and the service is great--every bartender was attentive and sweet, open to giving recommendations. The FOOD really tied me down though. The impossible Crunchwrap is exactly what you want out of a wrap, and it really tasted like meat. I didn't expect the quality of food from a bar, the sauce was unique and delicious too! 11/10 would recommend for a nice night out, definitely a stop you want to make before ur final destination (: read more

Probably one of the best burgers I've had in months. They are known for having meatless offerings, but they also have options for non-vegans. I was afraid there wouldn't be anything for me. I didn't quite like the ordering process. On this Saturday night, we had to order food and drinks from the bartenders, and then pick up our orders. Is it a sit down restaurant or a bar with full menu? The food was great but the bottleneck in the ordering process wasn't the best. read more

Vegan/veg reviewer: Loved this restaurant! Are you visiting LA? This vegan restaurant/bar is a must try! The food was brilliant and the drinks too. Totally, worth trying. The ambience is cozy and great! Well, I must say the Viet Non non wrap is a pretty hyped dish to order. We did not love it as much as the other dishes/drinks. Lesson learnt: Take your on call on what sounds appetizing and don't order something what the world is ordering - my partner, lol. read more

Anyplace that has a ton of vegan options is aces in my book. We usually hit Beelman's when we're attending an event downtown. I love that they offer an equal ratio of vegan to non vegan options and they're food goes well beyond the norm. My personal favs are the Loco Moco Bowl and the Potato Taquitos. Drinks are tasty but a bit on the pricey side considering the ratio of ice to drink they give you but what can ya say...it's dem downtown prices. Service is always fast and friendly and the vibe is chill. Parking,...you're best bet is one of the nearby lots. Definitely a must for vegans and their non vegan friends and family. read more

This is a great spot to have in DTLA -- think no frills, sports bar where you'll find a wide range of beers on tap. I'm not much of a beer drinker, but know whenever I visit a place like this it's best to steer clear from the wine. Better to go with what the place shines at! What makes this place unique is the extensive vegan food they serve. A few times a year I take a break from eating any animal products and technically at the same time stop drinking alcohol (oops, not this last time!). I enjoyed the Buddha Bowl, which comes with a wide range of veggies, chickpeas and grains. It was tasty and went great with the beer. There is bar seating and booths inside but we opted to sit out on the patio, which was great time for those rare warm LA nights. They also have TVs inside and out if you're interested in watching the game. I'm not a sports fan, but if you are, this seems like a great spot to join in the cheers! read more

I love the vegan food options and the non-vegan food options for my friends. Val, Reggie, Josh, Freddie, Junior they set the service level high. The music they play and the movies are a really cool ambiance. I will come here every day until I cease to exist. read more

The guy checking ids last night was really rude to me and my friend. We came to bellman's at around 10:30 on Sunday January 18. My friend and I just wanted to sit for a second outside and use the restroom, but the man was being really mean and talked down to us and wasn't letting us talk at all. When I started to talk he didn't acknowledge my presence. He didn't even make eye contact when talking to me. Which I feel is very disrespectful. I stood up for myself and told him that and he said I wasn't talking to you? He wasn't talking to anyone lol. His tone was off and he has no customer service skills whatsoever. He shouldn't be working in food service if he is going to act so entitled and uptight. We also thought he was racist against Hispanic people. He checked our ids twice ?? we are of age!! Got mad cause we didn't purchase anything but didn't tell us the first time we had to buy something. He was also verbally abusive and aggressive. He didn't look like he wanted to be at work. Never smiled, rude talking to us. Just my experience. So don't recommend. read more

Maybe, they are really known for their veggie dishes, I'm not sure but the burger, fries and honey Sriracha wings I received through Grubhub were underseasoned, underwhelming and very mediocre. My burger had more lettuce than anything and it was reminisce of Apple Pan's burgers because of that but that is where resemblance ended. Apple Pan's seasons their meat and burgers. This place does not. Fries were typical steak fries. Nothing amazing..They could be there or they could not. The wings were soggy and had a lot of fat. I think they were also undercooked. They tasted like the growth hormone chicken and they weren't very pleasant. I was not impressed. I read the reviews before ordering and really thought I was in for a treat. But, if they can't get burger and fries right or chicken decent...why on earth would I try anything more. I gave 2 stars because although the food was not tasty...it was edible. read more

My first time to Beelman's was a pretty good experience overall. I initially thought it was only a bar but found out it's also a restaurant, and a vegan restaurant at that. I ordered the "fried chicken" tacos and the tacos came out fast and fresh. Also you could not tell it was vegan fried chicken, if I didn't know I would not be able to tell the difference. The pico de gallo they put on the tacos was also delicious. Pico de gallo is such a simple addition, it was so flavorful and citrusy and fresh. Better than some Mexican restaurants that I've had. The ambiance was also awesome. It gave dive bar vibes with punk music playing the entire time. Definitely a chill place and would definitely go back. The one item that I had impressed me and would like to try more in the future. read more

The food is darn good; they have both vegan and non-vegan food but more vegan goodies than the other. A must is their yummy tater tots. I only try their vegan menu to see how it compares; never disappointed. Vibe is really chill with sports playing on the TVs and fun memorabilia lining the walls. Be prepared to show your ID at the patio entrance; guess it saves time for the bartender to card you and avoid keeping track of who they didn't ask. Menus are at the bar to take back to the seat of your choice. When you're ready, one person from your party can head back to the bartender to place your order and he'll hand a number stand. There's a water dispenser near the bar. The 2 restrooms are kind of dive-y. I wish I lived down the street because I'd be a regular. Expect a crowd when the sun sets. Daytime the streets are pretty sketchy with all the homeless around. There are parking garages/lots within walking distance. read more
