I've been coming to SoCal Vibez for over 6 years and nothing has changed!!!!! Angie and Alese have been killing it. Providing exceptional service at all times!!! Even thought it gets packed here at nights, it feel they always find a way to make it over the rush and find a way to exceed all customer expectations!!!!!!!!! read more

I really enjoy their mead here and the chill atmosphere they have. Sometimes if you get there too late, it's hard to find parking. I don't like how they close the second floor later at night, usually they have it open but last few times I have been, it's been closed. read more

Good drinks, terrible service. Food took an hour to come out. No one came to check up on us or help clean up so trash kept piling up upstairs. They're understaffed for sure so I was doing my best to be understanding. But come on, you can't have one person in FOH on a weekend. That is just cruel, and not fair for the workers and customers. Also, worst macaroni salad I've ever had. Do not get. DO NOT. It has so much potential but the lack of service and inattentiveness was just too much. Please hire more workers. read more

Hosted a last-minute birthday party at SoCal Vibes, and the team here was so accommodating and easy to work with. Very responsive via email and easy to book. The crew was phenomenal and took great care of us - shout out to Andrea and Alise (hopefully, I remembered names correctly.) And extra kudos for being SO kid-friendly. It's nice they have a full kitchen and offer tiered pricing based on party size. We were able to provide some food for guests when they arrived and just ordered more food as needed. I highly suggest poke nachos and pretzels! I love their drink options - not just beer but brandy, cider, and mead too! Must try the Coffee Abraham, cider flight, and mead flight. We booked the upstairs loft space for our party and they still had plenty of seats inside on the main floor and the outside patio. Looking forward to our next visit and did I mention how great the staff is here?! read more

I recently had my finances 30th birthday and let me tell you ! From the food to drinks and service everything was flawless , Angie, Brett , Zach and the other staff there were amazing ! If you're looking for your next event to be somewhere check out here ! read more

We did an event with 23 people on a Monday for lunch and staff was extremely accommodating. We were able to do a presentation with their TV and people ate and had amazing beers while enjoying the presentation. If you have a large group give them a shot. Total price for event was a good value. The parking in the back could have been easier for the guests because the available spots were a bit confusing on what's acceptable to park at if you haven't been there. read more

Socal Vibes - Main inside area - Breweries Near Me - Carson, California

I really wanted to like this spot. From the outside looking in, this place has a welcoming and relaxing set up for small or large groups. There's a pool table, upstairs and outdoor seating, and plenty of parking in the back. I tried the hard chili raspberry kombucha and loved it. The pitcher of sangria, on the other hand, tasted like cheap fruit juice and it ended up going to waste. During my visit, there was a disturbing amount of flies that lingered around our table and a few fruit flies ended up in one of the glasses that we were drinking out of. I know this isn't something that the place can fully control, but it's worth noting to put on their radar. Additionally, the bathrooms, while clean and spacious, weren't fully stocked with toilet paper. Overall, my experience here wasn't terrible but it wasn't impressive either. I do think that the ciders and beers are worth checking out if you're interested. read more

I usually don't like going to breweries because they'll only have IPAs or stouts and I'm more of a cider girly. So when I saw that this place had a wide range of different ciders, I was beyond excited. I got the order of the Honest Abe flight so I could try a little bit of everything. I think my favorite were the pomegranate cider and the Mexican candy cider! They also have a selection of mead and I ordered the lychee mead to try mead for the first time and it was really good. The place has a lot of indoor and outdoor seating. I came on a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't too crowded! They also have really good appetizers which are reasonably priced. They also have parking in the back which is always nice especially if you're used to the LA parking scene. I would definitely come back here! read more

Socal Vibes - Honest Abe Flight - Breweries Near Me - Carson, California

Super busy Saturday! Brent is awesome helping out the ladies!! Always a great time at So Cal Vibes!!

This is a lively spot on weekends They have good ciders and beer. They offer games like cornhole outside. read more

Shuffleboard inside, cornhole outside, cool music and a nice space; brewery definitely has the vibes going for it. I don't drink booze, so I didn't imbibe aside from water, but tried the food. The bartender tried to really sell the pork that this place has going on, so I went for the ribs and a pork taco, but was definitely disappointed. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing, but the food didn't give me good vibes, although the rest of the environment was nice. I'll definitely come back and give this place another shot when in Carson, it's definitely a super cool hangout spot; I'd just avoid the ribs next time. read more

Clean environment. Fast and great service. Place is super clean. Staff is very helpful and friendly. Good selection of food and not expensive at all. Will recommend to others. read more

Apparently management changed & my experience has definitely "different" since my Nov. '22 review. You cannot bring in outside food (it was snacks for crying out loud!). They will charge you $/person (charge you to bring in customers to their establishment (lame right?!) we obviously bought THEIR drinks & most of my party even ordered from THEIR menu as well!). They suggest you make a reservation if you are having an event. Mind you, I celebrated my birthday on Memorial Monday '23; I arrived a few minutes before opening to hold a spot (because it's open seating). Wasn't exactly sure how many people would show up so I didn't RSVP. Maybe I should NOT have said I invited all these people & it was just a coincidence we all ended up there! (Plan accordingly peeps to avoid all this RSVP bs & getting charged/person). And finally, had it not been for the 30+ people I brought in that day, they would have served maybe 10 people between 12-4 PM when we're we there! But besides this, staff was friendly & accommodating. read more

Good food, cold beer, fast service. Kids played foozball, myself and the wife figured out a few thing about life, it was all good. parking sucks but worth the brief annoyance. read more

This venue is wonderful and the staff is even better. I hosted my daughter's birthday party on the patio and the reservation went without a hitch. The event team was helpful, the food provided was delicious, and there was a lot of flexibility in what I wanted and needed for the party, while expectations were very clear. The cost was well worth it. I highly recommended going to SoCal Vibes for your regular hang-out or to host your upcoming party. read more

Little did i know, i pass this place almost every day just by going to work. Some coworkers decided to get together and we all came here. I'm not a drinker but they have a wide selection of ciders & malts. Even i liked some! The choco raspberry if im not mistaken. We got the poke nachos and the pulled pork nachos. The poke nachos were BOMB! The guac instead of cubed avo was a nice touch. My husband enjoyed the pulled pork but he was surprised there was no bbq sauce (usually we associate pp with bbq sauce) but they were more traditional nachos with pulled pork. This place has an outside and upstairs; its pretty cozy and cute. It's definitely a relaxed ~vibe~ (i had to) and the bartenders are not jerks. Rare! Bathrooms are clean too. Definitelg hit up this fun local spot. Hey, someone try the apple brandy for me and lemme know how it is? read more

It's a funny story how I ended up a SoCal Vibes for the first time. We had originally gone to Torrance to try a barbecue place that I had been wanting to try for the longest and unfortunately when we got there, the place was close for the day. We had drove pretty far from home so we decided to find something nearby to eat before heading back home. I kept looking for breweries in the area but there was nothing that caught my eye so we decided to head back home. We were on the freeway driving back home when I decided to give it another try and search something nearby right away SoCal vibes popped out. As soon as we pulled up and saw the patio set up, we knew it was going to be a great place. They have a small parking lot behind the brewery, but there is also street parking. This place is has a big selection on craft cider but they also carry a selection of craft beers. I decided to try their Hazy IPA and my lady tried one of their cider. They were both very good very crisp. We also try their salsa and chips, which were OK just regular canned salsa and chips. My lady wanted to try the Poké bowl, which was also OK but next time I will try their sliders, which look delicious. They have a great patio with some games to play like connect four Jenga, and tossing sacks and then say they have a foosball table. This place was very chill back. It had a great vibe. Every customer seemed happy and look like everyone was enjoying themselves. I will definitely be back if I'm ever in the area again. read more

We hosted our volleyball banquet here and it was such a great decision. The outdoor space is perfect for large parties or groups of families with kids. We brought our own DJ and decorations. Everything was ready for us and Angie was very kind and accommodating. The atmosphere is 5 stars, the employees are 5 stars, the bar is 5 stars, and the communication leading up the the event was 5 stars. The food is not 5 stars but you can always go and try the food and then ask to customize your menu to only include the items you like. We will be back next year! read more

Great ambiance, amazing sours and sometimes they have a guy that makes fantastic barbecue

I'm struggling to comprehend why this place has such a high rating. Did I come on an off day/time? Do I not get the "cider/mead" brewery vibe? I'm only giving TWO stars in lieu of one because the gentleman server (NOT the female server) was extremely friendly and accommodating. Do NOT come here if you're hungry. Do NOT come here if you want friendly service. Do NOT come here if you live more than 2 miles away, maybe 1. I don't know the lackluster female server's name. But she's an attractive dark skinned woman who couldn't possibly care less if you're a patron or not; mostly on her phone. Definitely will not return. EVER. read more

Socal Vibes - Mexican Lollipop Cider - Breweries Near Me - Carson, California

This place is exactly like the name - vibes all day! We came here on a Sunday afternoon trying to chill, grab a drink and pretend it's a normal Sunday without the pandemic. I have actually never had ciders before (I know weird), but wow it has opened my eyes to a whole new world. I had a cider flight (7-8.5% alcohol) with six different adorable little mugs for $14 bucks. The flavors are SO GOOD! Limoncello which is made with local honey and lemon is definitely my favorite, summer rose is also yummy. Definitely feeling the mood here, glad they have a little outdoor patio to sustain this. Would recommend for dates or group putting. read more

Came in with high hopes. This was not a good impression for a first timer. I've been wanting to try this place. Got bad attitude from cider tender( mid 30s Caucasian chick), she was giving bad attitude to her coworker, gave my husband a bad attitude for asking a question, I was not going to tolerate this from a place I'm going to spend money at. She flicked the menu at my husband, was bothered when I asked for a michelada. Don't come here. Literally was here under a minute and left. She looked shocked when I told her she had a bad attitude and didn't appreciate it. Hopefully she checks herself before she walks into work next time. read more

Cute place with a very chill ambience. Their hard ciders are really good, my only complaint is that I wish they had table waiting service. You order your food and drinks at the bar and you pick them up yourself from the bar and carry them to your table, which is OK, except when you have an entire flight of cider or beer and are worried you are going to drop or spill it. There are a variety of seating options available, which I like, and like I said, the cider is good so I will definitely be returning. read more

Vibes are good, music isn't bad. The beers are smooth. Most staff is friendly and tentative. Ordered the charcuterie board, it was a D+ at most. Not well presented, too pricey. Needs improvement and proper training of definition. Had the wings and I give those a B+. Properly sauced, juicy and price is accordingly, recommended. read more

We recently held our daughter's one year birthday at SoCal Vibes. It was nothing short of an amazing experience. From the start of coordinating to the end of the day, the entire staff were always on it and very accommodating. They had the outside patio reserved for us but it unfortunately rained that day so they opened the upstairs mezzanine and entire downstairs for our party. From coordinating with Aerin weeks prior to the party and to Angie who helped on site on the day of, these people are top tier. I didn't get the name of the rest of the staff but everyone always came to check on us, clean up after us, and made sure all empty glasses were cleared, etc. Their attentiveness was amazing considering we had 100+ people. tldr; the vibes are chill, prices are great and affordable, bar finger food is solid, and service is off the charts. Would definitely run an event here again! read more

We had a party for 30 people on June 1st for my husband's suprise party. I ordered some Hors d'oeuvres package ahead of time through email with the coordinator, and everything was clearly explained. The mezzanine was reserved for us and was very clean, neat and well organized. There was another party there with us but we did not mind at all. There was enough space for everyone. The food was very good and everyone enjoyed it and there was still some left over even with our large group. The service was great. The person who laid out the food introduced himself and constantly checking on us to see if we need anything. Everything went well and we were very happy with the outcome. Everyone in the group had a good time and they definitely thought about having an event like that again at Socal Vibes. Also, thank you, Aerin for coordinating everything! Professionalism from beginning to end read more

I instantly became a regular after hanging out here! Great people and great food and great beer!

Didn't know this place existed up until last week. Decided to check it out and I loved the vibes of the place. Parking was confusing. Didn't know if I could park in the back or if I had to park in the streets. We parked in the back. Beer was good. They had a red which was great. Food was good too nothing amazing (we had nachos) . I'll def come check it out again and try something new. Lots of games for those who like to do something while having a beer. read more

What a great experience, and wow they have moonshine!! Food was fresh and appropriately priced! Try for the great mead and brandy!!
