SoCal Vibes Co. - Brewery, Tasting Room & Kitchen

Restaurant Bar Brewery Winery Cider bar

👍 According to the bartender, this is the only "meadery" in all of SoCal - which honestly is pretty cool. I got the mead flight and my friend got the cider flight - in all honesty, the cider flight though was better (stay away from the blueberry mead - it just tasted like robitussin). Outdoor space is... People often mention good, time, drinks, mead, pork, nachos, delicious,

Outdoor space is great, but they have indoor seating, too. I parked on the street, but there a lot right behind the building.

    Great Space and amazing service. The ciders are spectacular and cover a great palate of ciders in sweet and some more complex.

    Went here with some coworkers after work on a Thursday, and it was a blast! There’s a bunch of free parking spots around the back. The mead is excellent, and the food is really great too. The pork nachos and ahi nachos were both delicious. I tried the blueberry mead and the “cactus cooler” mead, both of which were very good. There’s also some games to play, including cornhole outside, as well as foosball and Jenga inside. We had a great time drinking, eating, playing games, and talking! Will definitely have to come again.

    Been here a few times and enjoyed my time! One of the times was trivia night in which we won a couple of prizes- wasn’t expecting how generous they were all around. Another time was for taco Tuesdays- also a good deal. They even have jackfruit for vegetarians :) Servers are nice and crowd seems chill. I live close by so it’s nice to have this available for good foods, unique drinks, and fun games!

    Loved it! We enjoyed the foods and drinks. Nice staff. My hubby went back the following night with friends. I’m definitely going back with my set of friends too.

    Got the mead flight and really liked it. It came with 6 tastings. Our favorite mead flavors were passion fruit & lychee. My first time trying mead, they do it very well. Also the food was shockingly good. The poke that were in the nachos were the same quality from a poke specialty restaurant. Good chips. Wings were good and different with a distinctive smoky flavor. We also got their burger, tho it wasn’t giant it was delicious and felt of good quality. Definitely want to bring more friends here, go back, and try their other drinks and food.

    Should have listened to the previous reviews…. The positives are they have interesting and tasty drinks, but most lean on the sweeter side (even the dry brews). Nachos had a small amount of tuna, which they compensated with sauce and not great chips, for $16. We also got a pork sandwich and a variety of tacos, which were alright tasting but over priced for the portion and lack of flavors. They seem to mostly use bbq sauce and salt. So in my opinion not worth it for food or drinks in comparison to the many other taprooms and restaurants in Torrance/Gardena/South Bay.

    We took our kids there on Saturday and had a blast. Loads of games for them, food was good and the cider was outstanding. We rolled in before the busy crowd around 4pm so it wasn’t busy but by the time we left around 6:45 it was getting crowded downstairs. Cool lounge area upstairs. Kids got popsicles as well which were a hit!

    I've been wanting to try this place out for a while now. I came on taco Tuesday and asked about the jackfruit taco(I never had jackfruit before). This taco was amazing!! I also had the red apple sangria with a full shot of apple brandy.Brandy.. everything was delicious!!

    The bartender was not friendly when we first walked up to the bar. By the time we paid she switched her attitude and was amicable. The beer was good. The hamburger was good. Kid friendly. Not too busy and plenty of seating.

    Tried a taste of one of the sours was good but was in the mood for beer so ordered a couple local brewed IPA'S which were good. The pork sandwich was pulled pork and absolutely delicious. Definitely plan on returning.

    First and foremost I have been here a couple of times and every time I leave disappointed. The food was terrible but I should have expected that if it was a brewery and not a grill. Regardless I think if the food is terrible then a food truck should come instead. Second of all the drinks are pretty lame compared to other breweries. If you’re just looking for a drink that isn’t going to impress you then go here. Third the place is pretty awkward. I stood in an awkward line and sat in awkward seats. Idk what is was about it but I never have a chill time here. My brewery peeps save yourself the time and go somewhere else.

    Super tasty beer and the food was delicious 😋 nachos were worth coming back and so was the pork sandwich...so yummy! And the pretzels with cheese sauce..yum just yum. Hazy beer was noteworthy 😁

    The food and drinks here are absolutely amazing, came here with friends and I'm planning on coming again with family. A good place to have delicious drinks while enjoying the chill atmosphere.

    When this place opened the food was AMAZING! But I really don’t know what’s going on with this place now. A few months a came and ordered nachos and they were just a mess, and yes nachos are suppose to be messy, but the pork was just not eatable and ruined the whole meal. Today I received a flyer and decided to give them a second chance since they changed the menu. Disappointed!! The chips were stale like if they have been out for a while. And the pork melt was just unimpressive. I guess it’s just a glass of cider for lunch again. No disrespect to the owner because Spence and your drinks are awesome, but these food options are just not cutting it.

    Drinks are alright. Very disappointed on my 3rd time here just don’t leave your tab open they give your card out to anyone who leaves without even checking your full name very irresponsible of a bartender. They should be mindful of keeping tabs on open tabs and know the difference between who’s name belongs to which card & not just go based on the customer saying yes it’s their card!
