The bartenders were friendly and engaging. They were in top of service, offering refills before the glasses were empty. The beer tasted delicious. The price point is high but I think that's everywhere. Three televisions were visible to watch sports. It is a great space for large parties. read more

Oh yeah, I can see adding this one to my rotation. The bar is huge, and set at the corner of the Glendora Public Market. The staff is super chill, which just adds to the experience. Their Czech Pilsner is a total standout. It's super crisp and clean, and honestly, it's the perfect palate cleanser if you're diving into some of the heavier food from the other stalls. If I wasn't trying to get hammered, I would've had 2 more! They also have NA options as well, which is excellent. You can still grab a proper glass and enjoy the vibe if getting a buzz is not the plan. Pull up and park at Smog City, the beer is good and the bartenders are nice! read more

Stopped by Smog City Brewing Co. - Glendora and it's a super chill spot. It does get pretty packed on weekends, but even sitting off in a more tucked away corner, the servers still checked in on us which I appreciated. The vibe is relaxed, easy place to hang out and catch up with friends. Big plus is you can bring your own food, which makes it even better for a longer stay. Also, the michelada is bomb. Definitely worth getting. Overall just a solid, no pressure kind of place to grab a drink and unwind. read more

Smog City Brewing - Breweries Near Me - Glendora, California

The date... The 'afternoon' date... In order to avoid awkwardness and boredom this takes a bit of finesse. You must study your opponent, I mean date. What does she like? What will keep her eyes from glazing over with boredom? Luckily for me, my date this afternoon was not a complicated person. She was that rare female breed that enjoyed beer even more than I did, and I really enjoy beer. If I wasn't watching my figure, I would fill a swimming pool with beer, jump in and drink my way out. Also, lucky for me, there was a food hall with brewery right in the city she worked in, meaning I would not be risking a DUI and the Uber fee would be manageable. Inside the Glendora Public Market there was this gem of a brewery called Smog City Brewing. They had a good variety of beers from different breweries ranging in alcohol percentage. My date didn't waste any time, she needed a beer before her shakes returned. She went ahead an ordered the Natural, a dark beer, high in alcohol content. This was my type of lady, I went ahead an ordered the same. Say what you will about beer but it sure does loosen people up, leading to some great conversations, beyond the vapid small talk. We drank, we laughed and when we got hungry, we were surrounded by an array of food stands, saving us from aligning our tastebuds and finding a restaurant to accommodate both of us. She got a hotdog, again this is my type of lady, and I got falafels. Will I see her again? If beer is involved, I just might. Stay looking for love in all the wrong places my friends..... read more

Located inside The Glendora Public Market... you will find endless restaurants, dessert places, and drinks galore. There sits one bar, and within this bar contains some of the finest brewed beers around. I came here after grabbing tacos at The Taco Man (I highly recommend ribeye tacos on Taco Tuesdays at $4 a taco). I have tried a variety of dark beers here, my favorite go to has to be the michelada though. They serve in two styles (original or pickle). Go with the pickle michelada. This is probably the only place that sells them... at least from what i have found. The service is quick, easily get your drinks in under 5 minutes. There is more room in the facility than needed. You can easily pack groups od 20 or more. Great place to hang out or grab a quick beer. read more

Where's the bar!? It's in a fancy food court! Atmosphere is lazy, and the beer list is surprisingly not as long as other joints like these. Manageable and distinctly crafty, with a staff that is friendly and informative. For many times I have witnessed, there were no ciders, but they usually have a creative Seltzer on tap. Prices are reasonable, and this is why it remains popular. read more

Service was excellent! The atmosphere was low key. You can mix your flavors. I plan to go back and try the other available options.

It may seem that being a beer-bartender is a fun or easy job. But, it is serious business, a lot of work goes into the products they serve which rotate on a regular basis. The Brewmaster here is very knowledgeable and an expert, that is easy to see and TASTE. They cater to every type of customer, from a casual drinker to beer connoisseur! I had been to the Glendora Public Marketplace several times, but this was the first time at the brewery. This neighborhood hangout is laid-back, come solo or with a group. Several customers were regulars, I noticed the Bartender knew their name when they arrived. Smog City has an impressive number of taps ready to go, or should I say flow?? Order by the glass, a tasting flight, or 6-pack to go from their mini store, called the SMOG SHOP. You can buy the glass to take home, which I did at a deal for $4 if you buy the beer or slightly more if you only want a glass as sovereign (no beer purchase). I am planning to go back and try more beers next time. When you arrive, don't forget to tell em that Rosemary sent ya! read more

Great customer service and good cold beer. Nice place to chill out and watch sports.

They have the friendliest, attentive and knowledgeable staff... the BEST! They offer a large variety of their own craft beer and can pick one for you based of your flavor preferences if you're not sure which one to try first. There is a large bar and many tables available for seating, and 3 large tv's. LOVE this place and their beertenders! You'll leave with a few new friends and plans to return. read more

No food to review but surely the selection of beers they have are amazing! The service is incredible and the ambiance is vibing!! Always there for a good time. It's inside a market place so if you get hungry there's so many food to choose from! read more

Located 'Smog City Brewing @Glendora, CA., this past week from visiting 'Glendora Public Market.' I ended up buying a Smog City Pint Glass and a Sleeve because their Purple Sleeve said 'Los Angeles,' on top. I will get around to taking pics of these Brewery swags I bought here. Service: 5/5 friendly bartender. I was fetching a wheat beer, but it was already getting to closing time, so I ended up just shopping their swags here. Ambiance: 5/5 their shop side is decorated even though small but please consult pictures I have attached with this review down below for further reference. I'll be back for a Wheat Beer in the near future with the Pint glass I bought. read more

This is the best thing the food hall has to offer. Smog has great beers. I always gotta get some to go too. Although it's not the brewery, it beats driving to Torrance. I can't wait until the Smogtoberfest is back. It's one of my favorite from them. I like that they also change their selections constantly so it seems there is something new to try often. read more

My brother and I were at SCB yesterday afternoon and despite the inclement weather, we enjoyed tasty glasses of craft beers served up by Maddie, who was simply amazing to share space with. Great company, conversations and atmosphere. Our visit to SCB wasn't the first and it will certainly won't be the last. Mahalo nui loa again, Maddie for your excellent customer service! read more

The ambiance here is super chill and laid back. Came here with my family and we had a blast. Got the chance to have a conversation with Anthony and he's such a dope dude. Very knowledgeable with all the beers and definitely recommend some good ones. I had the Lightning Sprites Hazy IPA and it hit the spot. It was juicy and crushable! If you are looking for food well, luckily you are in the right spot. The Glendora market has multiple spots to choose from and being able to stop and get a beer or two from Smog is just the icing on the cake! Thank you Anthony for your magnificent hospitality. I will be visiting soon! read more

Smog City Brewing is a Beer Company, and this location is in the Glendora Public Market. They have lots of diverse beer options on the menu. The bartender was nice and made good recommendations. I ordered the Citrus Blonde, which was sweet and gave me a good buzz. It was also a reasonable price. We went for Smogtoberfest, which had live music. It was a bit loud, but the vibes were nice. There was also other places for food nearby and lots of seating. I'd recommend coming here with a few friends for a casual get together or drink. read more

4/9 at 5:55-6:00 pm I came in with a friend to get food. It was a calm evening and there wasn't that many people. Across the way there was a man, maybe 50's-60's, with two other people at a table a little ways away from where my friend and I sat. Immediately I noticed his loud and disruptive behavior. I get having a good time if fun and all, but I can tell others where obviously uncomfortable. Hearing "YEAH! All the ladies think I'm sexy!" Made me look over. He sees me and immediately starts cat calling me going "Hell yeah! You think I'm sexy! Come on sweetheart I can show you a good time! Haha". I stayed at my table with my friend and tried minding our own business. Two wonderful women from different parties came up to us asking if we were ok. They stated they also got cat called or had some other inappropriate encounter with the same guy. One woman was with her partner and the other was with a two year old child. I go over to smog city and ask if they could do anything about the man. The man I spoke to, who claimed was the manager, asked who I was talking about. I worked in the food industry and I know some knowlage about alcohol handling. Red flag number one is that he wasn't paying attention to his guests to ensure safety. Also how can someone so loud and obnoxious go unnoticed. Once I pointed out the guy the manager then claims there's nothing they can do since that was the guys only drink. Red flag number two. Even though they technically didn't have major cause to kick the guy out, the least they could have done was go up to the guys table and go "hey guys! I know we're having a good time but let's be sure to be mindful of the other guests here". I then asked if there was a manager, he claimed he was, I then asked if there was a manager or security for the entire establishment. He told me no, since they were independent businesses all meshed into one, and that if I had a problem I could go file a police report. Going back to my table I tried to keep to myself. A few minuets later the manager walks up and says the other two people in guys party were taking him home. As the guy walked out he glared at me until he couldn't anymore. When he looked away I watched him walk out, car keys in hand, swaying a bit as he went. Because of this and the very little action taken it made the rest of my visit to the Glendora markets place unsafe. My friend and I are even going to ask the manager to walk us out. read more

I've been going here since the place first opened and I already knew I liked the beers from the Torrance location. Finally realized I needed to give this place the 5 stars it deserves. I always love getting the coffee porter. One of the best coffee beers out there. Service is always A++++ too. Cheers! read more

Located inside the Glendora Public Market. Has a wide variety of beers to choose from. I'm not a beer gal but if it's your thing, you'll never be short on options. It's a brewery so no wine, no cocktails, etc. Though they do have some strong beer (goes up to 14% for the highest volume). But the stronger the beer, the darker & bitter it is... should have went for their strongest cider instead. Ambiance is casual, tons of food vendor around to pair your beer with. Service is good, quick & simple. read more

What's up: Visiting this place as part of the Yelp Community event. When we got here, we were excited to see this place open and decided to make a stop here before we end the night. Parking: Located in the Glendora Public Market, they have a decent amount of parking in their lot. Clean air drivers should be happy to know that they have designated spots located close to the entrances. Environment: Masks are required. Once you walk into the building, you'll be surrounded by different restaurants and various tables/seating areas. The Brewery is located in the large area with tables and seating, near Dog Haus. Hand sanitizer was readily available. Plenty of tables and seats were available in this area. What was ordered: Yelp Check-In offer of 3 tasters for $5 - Coffee Porter (just like coffee) - Is Ticking Clock (really light) - Bourbon Barrel OE (good flavor) Yay/Nay/Meh: Yay. The tasters Check-In offer was great and gave us the opportunity to try different beers as we finished up our night at the Glendora Market. Staff member was friendly and they even have Smog City Brewing gear available for purchase. Be courteous and don't forget to bring your finished glasses back to the counter.

I'll be completely honest. I'm a super baby when it comes to drinking, so I can barely muster even the smallest sip. Despite this, the tiny sips I took, I did enjoy the tasters that I got to try here ($5 for 3 tasters for the passport to Glendora Public Market for August). I got to try the "New Normal", "Cuddlebug", and one of these darker beers that had the taste of black coffee, not bad. Cuddle bug tasted a bit like wine too me. The lady working was super nice and helpful. Additionally, the worker who was bussing tables made sure our glasses were handled ASAP. They also sell their pint glasses and merchandise! read more

Attentive knowledgeable staff. Nice location in a food hall with several genres of food options.

The beertender was super accommodating and was a champ (handled a longgg line by himself). He was helpful with recommendations since I don't normally drink beers. For a fruiter beer, he recommended Snugglebug and even let me sample it before I ordered! I also got a Mango Pango which was just as good. Will be back. They sell their glasses (not the shot ones) for $4! read more

A pleasant surprise to find Smog City Brewing inside the Glendora Public Market. The bar is huge and has an expansive selection of brews. This is a great place to compliment your meal. We complimented our burgers from Dog Haus with a 16oz glass of Little Bo Pils, a smooth blonde ale that wasn't too overwhelming and didn't bloat us up. CONS: The very TIGHT parking spots. If there is no lot parking you can find street parking. Enjoy your visit! read more

This spot is located within the Glendora Public Market . There is plenty of seating no matter what time of day I go. I wanted something that tasted like a Hefe. The bartender suggested from LA Wit Love. According to the website it's , "Belgian Wit Beer | 4.8% ABV. Belgian-inspired wit beer with coriander, sweet orange peel, and bitter orange peel." It tastes pretty close to a Hefe. It was a nice light beer. Bartender was awesome. read more

This is one of my favorite weekday spots to grab lunch with a beer on my day off. The venue itself isn't too crowded mid weekday so there's plenty of seating. The beertender (I think Javier) is his name is awesome, friendly, and welcoming. My favorite's so far are the Kumquat, the IPA, and Mango Pango. I haven't been on a weekend yet, so I can't say how crowded it gets but I imagine it gets a steady flow of people. read more

This place is great nestled in the Glendora marketplace. There are a lot of seats around the place or you can seat at the bar. The gentleman who helped us was well informed knows his beer. Snugglebug was the choice this night. Sour but packs a punch. It'll sneak up on you though. But mango pango is the one I'll try next time. He hooked me up with a sample. That flavor was great too. Next time. There is a fridge packed full of the beers to go too. Great service and variety of flavors your in the mood for. read more
