    This place is amazing always friendly and stay with all the new stuff and have some of the best deals in town.. whatever you need or want they have it here..

    I don't even know what to say about this one lol

    After years of entering and exiting the doors of La Bodega I've only just come to realize I'd never reviewed one of the best liquor stores in Riverside. Shame on me! Located on Central Ave just off the 91, I will warn you the vehicle entrance to La Bodega is a bit narrow and made more narrow by the terrible parking. If you know you know. The parking here sucks. That said, once your inside you forget about the parking and are met with beer and liquor heaven. The craft beer selection is one of the best in the inland empire. A lot of it rare and pricey (looking at you Bottle Logic) but you'll find plenty that won't make your eyes water. It's not just beer, they have massive amounts of liquor, wine and even mead(!!!). If you're looking for something for the kids, they have a great variety of craft soda as well! The kiddo recommends anything from Avery's! Staff is always friendly and helpful if you don't know what to get. Gold is where you find it! If you're looking for mainstream adult beverages, you'll find it at La Bodega. If you're looking for stuff that's maybe a bit off the beaten path, you'll also find it at La Bodega. One of the best in Riverside. Highly recommended!

    Best Liquor Store in the world. They have everything and anything you need. Best beer selection I have ever seen. Was able to grab Black Tuesday from The Bruery. They also have occasional Russian River beers, including Blind Pig and Pliny the Elder. The owner helped us find two other liquors we were searching for. Doesn't feel like a liquor store inside, it feels like a fancy wineries bottle shop. Look no further than La Bodega.

    8.99 for that?

    They have a good selection of booze and snacks here, but random items are a bit overpriced.

    I am extremely glad I found this place on Yelp! I was in the market for some whiskey and I thought that I would have to drive all the way to Total Wine in Rancho to get the whiskeys I wanted. I am extremely glad I swung by here before I drove to Rancho. Not only does this place have everything I was looking for, the prices were slightly cheaper as well! This isn't that janky liquor store you go to and buy vapes, bongs, and juice, but rather, they have a nice selection of alcohol and the people here seem knowledgeable in it as well. If you are a wine or liquor enthusiast, I highly recommend coming here!

    Love MT sours!

    Why would you close at 9pm in the weekends? Always has solid selections but seems like 9pm is a little too early.

    Do they have tall cans?

    Yes.

    Does anyone know if they deliver?

    They do not employ their own delivery service. But I think there is an app that will make deliveries as a third party.… Read more

    Do you have Hoegaarden?

    Best way to find out is call. But pretty sure they do.

    I took a pic, but I didn't see the question until I left, next time for sure.

    You can't go wrong with the craft brew selection, either- Breweries like Bottle Logic, Stone, and Russian River.

    This is our favorite spot in Riverside, everything we've tried has held up to it's reviews by…read moreemployee recommendations. The pub burger deserves the MOST praise! The craft beer flight is a must here as they rotate them out weekly. The service is always great, every time we come in we get friendly smiles and helpful menu suggestions. The atmosphere is relaxing especially their outside dining area. They always have events so check their calendar!

    Everything about this place is a green flag!…read more Food: Quality is top tier. Everything is good but my favorite is anything with their fried chicken and their hot mess sauce - my goto is their hot mess mac and cheese with all the extra sauces. I am obsessed with their homemade sauces.. hot mess ofcourse, garlic aioli, white bbq, and their house ranch are my faves.. don't ask me to only choose one. I don't really drink so I haven't tried their craft beers but they have a wide selection, flights, and togo inventory. I have no pictures because I couldn't help myself. Service: Again, quality is top tier. The staff is fabulous, consistently kind and they are why the place feels warm but exciting. Environment: Love the atmosphere here! They have fun events like movie night, crafting activities, and games (board and group). The most available seating is upstairs and the patio but they also have some seating on the first floor where you order. Parking is good. The establishment is a unit out of a larger building so parking is shared with other businesses but I have never had an issue with parking and I have come here many times at various times. Overall 15/10. Just come here and eat their yummy food and be happy that you listened to this review. Thank you Thompson Brewing, I hope you reign forever.

The event included multiple vendor popups from food to beauty to health products. Vendors set up in the alley behind the brewery, there was plenty of parking in the front of the business off of Central Ave. There were many picnic style tables and metal tables set up, but as the event started filling up, the tables went pretty quickly. I would suggest getting to this event early. We tried many different foods; Mexican tacos and taquitos and aguas frescas. The Jamaica-Strawbery was delicious! Also had vegan fried sushi topped with fried shrimp and fried tofu. Delicious vegan ribs with Mac n cheese. The ribs were made with jackfruit and mushrooms and covered with delicious barbecue sauce. Then we had fried oyster "chicken" and fried king oyster "fish." The fish looked almost identical to real fish, it was mind blowing. Everything I tried was out-of-this-world delicious. The brewery was taking orders and many people were taking advantage of their offerings of beer and cider. Please visit this event on Sundays, you won't be disappointed. The schedule can be found on the IG page: IE Vegan Sundays.
