King Harbor Brewing Company — Restaurant in Redondo Beach

My fiancé and I stopped in here after spending some time walking around the Redondo Beach Pier. We'd heard Naja's had a TON of options but being from out of town we just really wanted to try something local. And they had $5 happy hour pints. So SCORE.

The setting is super laid back, kind of intimate so I can imagine it getting crowded on a summer weekend but perfect for a casual weeknight drink. There are a few stools facing the water but you get the ocean breeze no matter where you are. There's cool ocean-inspired art and the table tops are made from the tops of barrels. Such cool attention to detail.

I got the South Bayern, a Bavarian Hefeweizen that was super refreshing and flavorful for a hot summer day. My fiancé got the St. Jameson, an Irish Dry Stout ages in Irish whisky oak. As a big whisky drinker, he was impressed. We also got a 5oz. taster of the Greyscale Coffee Stout because we both love Bent Paddle Cold Press. It was a great balance of coffee flavor without being too bitter, but I'm glad we did a taster to split because I don't know if I would want to do a full pint.

For snacks, expect bags of chips and jerky. So nothing to write home about but they're also pretty reasonably priced for a beachside brewery.

The service was great too. Super friendly beer tender without being too attentive or pushy. You know the type.

They have a great variety of beers so any beer palate. A definite must when in the...

King Harbor Brewing Company has several delicious beers. Some of my favorites of theirs at the time of this review are the Breakfast Stout (a creamy stout with notes of chocolate and coffee), Strange Paradise (a lime lager), Tiki Hut IPA, and my absolute favorite the Cerveza Hermosa (Mexican-style amber lager). They also have many activities and social events happening all the time at both locations, they are community connected and make you feel right at home even if it's your first time there. The only thing that sucks about this brewery is that they don't keep a constant standard of brews, instead always rotating new batches of experimental brews so if you find something you like from them it may never become...

A pretty busy brewery on Friday evenings! Solid beer selection and has that 'local only' feel that isn't gimmicky. Seating is limited inside and free for all outside. It's first come, first seated so if you have a group it's best to get there a little bit earlier. We had to wait and hover for a while before snagging a table.

Dog friendly too so bring your adorable doggo!

There are food trucks here as well. Not sure if they change, but one had tacos and the other had soft serve ice cream.. It was a bit too long of a wait for me, but if you take a quick 5 min walk to El Amigo #3 across the street for some tacos you won't be disappointed! Real good...
