Brewery Draconum — Restaurant in Santa Clarita

This was a cute little brewery! We were in town and noticed our airbnb was right across from this Main st area. We went in on a Friday night around 7 pm or so. There was a wait inside, which is a little on the smaller side, so we opted for the outside area because they had warmers. They had cornhole and giant connect 4 out there, so that was cool. I did also see that they have 18+ comedy and board games to play. At first, it was just the 4 of us and another couple outside, but it filled up pretty quick.

I was having some stomach issues, so I opted for Sprite, but everyone else got the hot chocolate because it was so cold, a beer, and a beer flight (4 beers in that). The guys said the beers were very good. For food, we got the potato leek soup, wings, shepherd pie, and the caprese sandwich. Hits all around! I couldn't do too much of my soup, again because of stomach issues, but the little bit I did have was very good! It was super cheesy and had big bits of cut-up bacon. Almost all the but my soup and my sisters shepherds pie was eaten up! Very tasty!

They also had really great service! The hostess who sat us was great at assuring us they had heaters and stuff if we sat outside. Our waitress, Rachel, was also super nice! Really attentive and was quick with things. She also had an awesome attitude and personality. This was a nice place, and I def recommend it!

Anxiety induced questions I had that may help you:

Do they take reservations - No, this is first come first serve.

Is the wait long - It can be, unless you are willing to flex and sit outside. Especially because the inside isn't that big.

Is there parking nearby - There is street parking when available. There's also a small garage next to the nearby...

This place is hands-down the best brewery in the valley. The chef is on another level—every dish feels crafted with intention and comes out bursting with flavor. The brews? Made in-house and easily award-winning in my book (and I’m pretty picky when it comes to beer). Somehow they manage to keep things creative while nailing consistency every single time.

The bartenders and servers are the kind of people who remind you why hospitality is an art. They’re knowledgeable without being pretentious, friendly without being fake, and they somehow know exactly when you want to chat or when you just want to enjoy your pint in peace. That balance makes all the difference.

What makes it even more special is the community here. Regulars and staff alike have become a second family to me. It’s the type of place where you walk in and immediately feel at home—whether it’s through friendly banter or the freedom to simply exist exactly as you are.

I’m a creature of habit, and I’ll admit—I refuse to go anywhere else. If it ain’t broke, why fix it? And yet, even as a regular, I can switch it up on the food or beer menu and I’m always impressed. Never once disappointed.

If you’re in the valley and you haven’t been here yet, you’re missing out on something...

From the moment that I stepped into the place I felt welcomed and the service was great! I've been to breweries where the staff didn't have a clue about what they were serving, but that want the case here.

I had every intention of having a meal but couldn't take my eye off the "dragon eggs" which, in my opinion, were breaded, deep fried meatloaf balls..... But I mean that in the most endearing way! They were fantastic and ended up being more than enough for this fat guy's dinner 😂.... Besides, I had to save room for a couple of beers being a brewery and all....

I had a flight to start off with (which was actually my 3rd flight of the day cooking from Florida... Sorry bad joke and I digress) - Juicy Drake IPA (you could taste the grape juice in it but it wasn't sweet or overpowering at all), cream ale with tangerines, Callie's Hazy DIPA, and ABVaf Belgian Strong.... If you like Belgian strong you will love this!!! All were great and I didn't go home alone either.....with Juicy Drake and ABVaf taking up some space in the fridge.... Worth the visit if in the area just based on the brews and...
