Trademark Brewing | Brewery + Tap Room — Restaurant in Long Beach

Trademark Brewery earns a solid 4 out of 5 stars in my book. What sets this place apart is its strong community focus and the plethora of themed events they host, including watch parties, paint nights, and more. It's evident that they're deeply rooted in their local community, which adds to the charm of the brewery.

One thing to note is that while they don't have a food menu, they make up for it by inviting guest food vendors to set up in their parking lot. It's a great concept, but be prepared for potential wait times as most vendors take a while to prepare your food. My advice? Order as soon as you arrive or consider bringing your own snacks to tide you over.

Speaking of amenities, the brewery allows outside food, making it convenient for patrons. However, outside drinks are a no-go, so keep that in mind. Additionally, parking is relatively hassle-free, with both street parking and a dedicated parking lot just a block away.

Inside, the brewery is spacious and dog-friendly, making it a perfect spot to hang out with friends, including the furry ones. The clean restrooms and ample TVs add to the overall comfort and convenience of the space.

Overall, Trademark Brewery offers a fantastic community-driven experience with a variety of themed events, ample space, and inviting ambiance. While the lack of a food menu may be a minor inconvenience, the brewery more than makes up for it with its vibrant atmosphere and welcoming vibe. It's definitely worth checking out for a laid-back evening with friends and...

Beer on beer on beer! If you’re a beer lover, then you’ll most definitely love Trademark Brewing. They offer 30 taps of Trademark Brewing Beers! That’s a lot of beer! They even have slushy drinks that include beer.

The space is enormous! They offer tons of indoor seating and tons of outdoor seating. It’s an excellent place for large groups to hang out, laugh, and, of course, drink beer!

Sooo, I’m not a beer drinker by no means, so I felt a bit empty-handed with no drink in my hand. I wish they offered at least one non-beer drink for the non-beer drinkers. Also, they offer no food. That was a bummer. I read in other reviews that they have food trucks or other food vendors. But of course, the time I went, there was zero food. But, I guess on the flip side, you are allowed to bring in outside food. So go ahead and DoorDash it!

Parking, UGH! Parking is pretty rough! But I feel that’s just the situation in Long Beach. But be ready to drive around looking for parking. Be mindful of all the parking signs. Parking enforcement is pretty strict.

Staff, I wish the staff was friendly. I had asked for a sample of a frozen drink to see if it was something I could actually enjoy since I just don’t like beer. My husband had asked first, and the lady told him he needed to wait until the line cleared up. It literally will take her a second to give us a sample. Then I asked another lady, and she had a whole a** attitude about it. Terrible customer service here.

If you’re not a beer...

I was attending a sip n script calligraphy event here. At first I was going to give it one star because I kept calling and no one answered, and i was frustrated in not knowing where to park. I wasn’t sure if the place had parking, building parking structure nearby, or valet. But on my 3rd call, a very sweet voice answered and said there was only street parking available. After several loops around the nearby blocks, I Found a gap large enough to squeeze my car in.

Once inside, everything changed. The relaxing vibe, and wonderful staff helped take the edge off all the outside chaos. I really was able to settle in, enjoy a brew and get comfortable. The tables were spaced, and there were several events going on, but it didn’t feel overcrowded. I ordered the Viking ale (blonde), it was smooth and well chilled. My son had the non-alcoholic strawberry lemonade slushy that he guzzled down. Each drink was 5 bucks, an extraordinary deal considering ever price every where has skyrocketed!

If this place was closer, to my work or home, it would definitely be my local hangout joint. I do plan on going back and supporting events here, because this place...
