This place is awesome. Simply amazing beer selection and great prices. The burgers are outstanding and the root beer BBQ sauce is addictive. I also tried the Mission Hard Root Beer and it was rockin'.

This place is great, I swing by here with my friend who lives close to it, they have great food and an amazing beer selection , we come in to watch sports games too. Try a beer float !!!

I've never had a great experience with the staff here, but the food and the beer selection is so good. It's worth coming back. And don't forget your free fries with two beers during happy hour !!

Alexandra Cortez

Talk about a great night: sat at the "Jack Nicholson table", had an amazing BLT off the 405, and tried two new beers . Good food, good beer , a great atmosphere, adorable pics of dogs, and great music !

Rosy C

Great staff and delicious food! If you’re ordering a patty for your dog, let them know not to add salt. The pork fries were the best item on the menu. Yummy!

David Profumo

Love the Big's Spicy Mac & Cheese with buffalo chicken and the ice cream sandwich . Great choice of porters .

LA Weekly

Avoid freeway traffic in the valley and get $4 or $5 craft beer during happy hour Monday-Friday 3pm-6pm. Pair with some Chili Cheese Fries and Pulled Pork BBQ sliders for the maximum enjoyment! Read more

Adriano Lim

Super chill bar scene. It's small for sure but it's always a great time. Great food, service and atmosphere! Get a fried egg on ANY burger !!

Joel Waters

I used to live down the street and came in all the time for the burgers . Stopped by today and had the Cobb salad and it filled me up and tasted great. Seems the menu has expanded quite a bit too.

Jim Martini

Great beer selection . Old Rasputin and green flash always on tap

Drew Buerhaus

Best burgers in The Valley. Ever changing quality beers , and the ability to bring Man's Best Friend makes for the best experience!

Arnie Panameño

Very good selection of craft and imports. Try the Abita Purple Haze it's deliciously refreshing.

Jules Mothershed

The owners are so great! Bring a pic of your dog in a wooden frame and they'll add it to the inside wall!

AskMen

There is finally a bar dedicated to valley commuters who want a place of their own to grab a drink before fighting 405 traffic. It also captures the essence of happy hour : good food and simple drinks.

Sean Robison

Try the Chi Chi Burger . It is breakfast on a burger .

Taste Terminal

Get the Chi Chi Burger : Wake up and smell the 1/3 lb. of beef with cheddar cheese , hash browns , applewood smoked bacon , a sunny-side up fried egg and buns drizzled in maple syrup . Good morning! Read more

Christina Anwar

Chi chi burger , dickens burger , sampler beer and garlic fries

Justin Ordoveza

They have a dog friendly patio .

Ralph Apel

The Chi Chi Burger is incredible!

Megan Leonard

Food & service are inconsistent, but burgers & fries are sometimes SO GOOD it's worth the risk. The Dickens and Chi Chi are great, specify crispy hashbrowns on the Chi Chi.

Kelly Gittleman

The spa salad (add chicken and feta ) is soooo good and I typically hate salads . Great beer selection , good music , and the dog pics everywhere are a great touch.

Reannon Crider

Amazing food, friendly staff and my dog loves to join outside!

Paul Fenwick

The Black and Bleu burger was fabulous!

Andrew Goodrich

Without fail they will be out of the beer I want. Take the beer off the menu if you are out! It's become a running joke. Otherwise, good vibe, decent grub, and fair prices

Leslie Phelps

The BLT sandwich is delicious and I highly suggest ordering it! Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

Shane Goodoff

excellent burgers , and awesome ever-changing beer menu .

Shabby Khalili

Curieux on tap & Gulden Draak import beer is a must have! + wings are fire!!!

Jonathan Wang

Happy hour deals are great, varied beer list

JordanPaige

Great place but can be a little pricey and low key compared to several businesses in the same vicinity

Picturehealing.com

The garlic fries are SO good! Havent had a bad burher yet either! The Chi Chi is the fav so far!

Adam Nixon

Spiciest Mac and cheese I've ever had, but I can't stop eating it! Cool little place. I've been here several times and I always enjoy it.

Jeff Solomon

Lots of dogs on the wall and nice selection of craft brews

Jennifer Duncan

I love this place! Great atmosphere! Beers on tap fantastic and food is delicious. You can have your pup on the patio too!

Aaron Sheldon

Summit Burger with a Scrimshaw Pilsner for a smooth, delicious ride. Substitute a Gulden Draak for the pilsner if you want more kick.

Ronald Schwab

Root Beer Bourbon Ribs ...Outrageously good! Top notch french fries !

Amanda S

dickens burger w/ a portabello mushroom + extra bbq sauce , with an Affligem Tripel to wash it down. trust me. Only way to go. (+, it's vegetarian !) :] Read more

Try the Squealer with garlic fries .

Anita Brown

They always have Old Rasputin on tap--you'd be crazy not to get it every time (I do)!

David Zasloff

Great blue burger . Beer was fantastic as well ....the company was even better. Laughed and told stories....love old friends.

Stan Ingel

Excellent beer selection both on tap and bottle. Burgers are top-notch! Don't forget to write something on the wall before u leave, ask your waitress for chalk

Weileycoyote

Must try: Old Rasputin 12 yr Anniversary stout , aged in oak bourbon barrels or Harvieston Old Engine Oil (Old Scotish Home Brew )

Ms Em

Happy hour - free plate of skinny fries when you order two Beers .

Dustin Petok

Dickens burger and an Old Rasputin is a little slice of heaven. Just saying.

Scott Koerner

The St Bernardus Abt 12 is excellent if you like Belgian beers .
