Decent beer for a brewery we only found out about because of a full page ad in Beer Paper LA. We…read morehappened to be in the area when we saw the ad, so decided to tick another new brewery for our list. The vibe is kinda douchy with the naming scheme and overall vibe of the brewery. I was pleasantly surprised at their plum sour ("Plumer's Cracker" *eye roll*) and the others we tried were above average. Plus points for a live band. Minus points for dogging on their local brewery neighbors.

But remember that a dive bar in Torrance is not the same a dive bar in Silverlake or Echo Park. The location here is also a bit far for anything walkable, so I can't imagine they will have much business, especially since there are breweries close by that have better ambience. I'm pulling for you Torrance Brew Yard.

The indoor and outdoor seating areas are very spacious, which is a plus for me. Even though it was moderately busy the night we went, the outdoor area still felt spacious enough to offer an intimate vibe while we enjoyed our drinks. The service was nice; the staff were attentive and friendly. You pay at the counter for your drinks and take them back to your seat, just like at a standard bar. I'm not sure if I should be relieved that I didn't order any food that day after reading some reviews. I've seen some people complain about sanitary measures and the temperature/quality of the food here. Hmm... next time I stop by, I'll probably just grab drinks and then head over to In-N-Out lol. On another note, the drinks were good! I forgot which IPA I had, but it was nice. My boyfriend went for his usual michelada, which he enjoyed. Overall, SoCal Vibes is a laid-back, industrial-style brewery that offers a spacious, dog-friendly outdoor seating area. For that reason alone, I'll probably be back soon. I'd recommend this spot to anyone in the area looking for a chill place to grab drinks. Cheers!

By the fact that I can Pure Intention here what can I do but to give the place 5 Stars. Service is always great. I haven't tried any of the food trucks/pop ups they have weekly, but in truth I'm only there for the excellent beer. Dog friendly (as implied earlier) and there are always a few there every visit I have made. I think that by the nature of the clientele, those bringing dogs understand the need to keep them on leashes and respectful of not knowing how other dogs might react.

Strong inexpensive drinks (my Bombay Gin 'n Tonic is less than $9), sports on several screens, and occasional food make this a very pleasant way to spend an afternoon or evening. It's a sports bar, with lots of Dodgers and Lakers fans, Rams and Clippers too, even a few Raiders fans will come here for games. There's a regular who's a Niners fan - don't forget to ask him about the 2024 Super Bowl. $2 off shots for touchdowns & homeruns by the home team. Very diverse crowd, representative of Gardena. Several older customers during the day, then it skews much younger in the evening. There's a pool table, several dart boards, you can play keno and the lottery at the bar. They occasionally have a dj on weekends and a karaoke night during the week. Saturday and Sunday days are swell times to spend here. Customers occasionally bring food to share with everyone. The Saturday through Monday day bartenders (Lisa, Rel & Erin) are great to hang with. If you're a regular, they'll remember your drink as soon as you enter the bar. There's parking in back, and most people enter the bar from the back. Open every day until 2 am. Definitely stop by if you're in the area.

Boyyy did we finally find our spot!! Reminds me of those awesome family-owned neighborhood bars back in Champaign-Urbana (yes, Illinos but we're Angelenos)...the kind you don't really plan for, but end up talking about later. We've been here twice now and honestly? We love it! First time, there was live music, open mic night. Just people showing up, putting their heart out there. No pretentious vibe, just good energy. Second time, there was line dancing. And if you bought one of the drinks you got a raffle ticket for free classes. Completely different night, same welcoming feel. How cool is that?!! The thing about this place is that it shifts, but sort of still feels like home. The first night it was raining, and they let us bring in our 3-month-old poodle, Kopi, without hesitation. Not only that! they offered him a blanket!!! A blanket!!! For our dog!!! Yeah...that told me everything. They kept checking in on us, making sure we were taken care of, recommending drinks like we were regulars. And there were clearly many regulars there. Drinks were solid...good cider, good beer, good mixed drinks. And the food? Omg! The food!!! Honestly fucking underrated (can I curse?). Way better than you'd expect from a bar, though to be fair some of the best food I've had has been from a bar's kitchen.. You know.... the kind of food where you take a bite...and your eyebrow rises just a tad...you pause and are like....okay wait, this is really freaking good! Nothing about this place is trying too hard and that's exactly why it works. It's just people, music, drinks, awesome food....and a space that feels lived in. We'll definitely be back.

The food comes out instantly because everything is pre-made and sitting, nothing is actually fresh, and if it is "fresh," it's fried. The beer isn't even cold.
