Long Beach Beer Lab (Wrigley)

I went here for a singles event and it was an excellent venue. The location had a lot of room for games, seating, Arcades & had a fun vibe. We ordered a veggie pizza and a cheese pizza along with their truffle fries and garlic knots. I also tried two or three of their homegrown brews and they were all pretty good. Complimented their food items. I’d definitely come back here again. A solid brewery with tons of food options and lots of opportunities for socializing. Parking is a little tricky but worth the trip.

A solid OK. Fun building, cool to see inside of the beer lab. They have trivia and things. Would not come here specifically for dining. Very limited menu. Ordered the margarita pizza which was said to be the best, it wasn't bad. Lots of crust. I order a side of basil oil, so much crust you need 2 sauces. Service was Eh- just sufficient. You have to order at the counter, you have to go back to the counter to get your items, there are signs to bus your table and they still have a tip prompt when paying.

What an awesome, kosher establishment. My orthodox friend could eat anything and the craft beers on tap were tasty! I had a flight of four options and the hazy was so good, I got it as my second ordering and bought a few cans to bring home. Fridges were filled with cans for purchase. I ordered the Margherita pizza with red onions added… personal size, and incredibly tasty (with garlic, cherry tomatoes, pesto on top). The waitress was super friendly and the airy environment had plenty of tables. Comfortable and enjoyable space, with Olympics playing live on the big tv in the secondary room. Will definitely return!

This place is a really awesome concept. The beer is great, the staff really knows their beer, and the food is also awesome. The venue is open seating. Walk in, join the line, make your order and go find a seat. Personally, I'm not a fan of this concept, but I m not letting that hurt my review because others may not care. I would probably still return, because the food and beer were great. Small menu, but amazing food. Added bonus... I wanted a gift, so I called ahead and they prepared a case of beer and a bunch of merchandise and had it ready for me. Great place.

The Beer Lab was a good find. The building is large and open. They had a great selection of not only beer but also pinball machines. From 25 cents to $1, you can have some arcade fun. We also got a pizza which was wonderful. A good spot to drink, eat, hang, and play some pinball.

Pinball. Lots of machines for quarters, though I much prefer the free to play hourly/subscription all-you-can eat pinball format over at I Need A Miracle Tickets. Tournaments at I Need a Miracle are more fun and less crowded too. Menu is small but pizza crust is great. Tad pricey but worth it if you crave quality sourdough crust.

Long Beach Beer Lab is a must-visit destination for beer lovers. With a wide variety of interesting and flavorful brews, there's something for everyone to enjoy. Whether you're a fan of traditional beer styles or looking for something a little more unique, you're sure to find a favorite among the many options available. One unexpected surprise during my visit was the amazing sourdough bread. The combination of beer and bread is a match made in heaven, and the chefs at Long Beach Beer Lab have certainly nailed it. The bread was delicious, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who visits. The seating arrangements are spacious and comfortable, with both indoor and outdoor options available. Whether you're looking for a quiet spot to enjoy a beer and some food or a lively atmosphere to watch the game with friends, there's a perfect spot for you. And if you're looking for a little entertainment while you enjoy your brews, the pinball machines are a great addition. They add a fun and nostalgic touch to the space and provide hours of entertainment for all ages. In addition to the great beer and bread, the food options at Long Beach Beer Lab looked and smelled amazing. Although I didn't have any myself, I could tell from the aroma that the pizza and pastries were top-notch. I'll definitely be back to try them on my next visit. Overall, I had a fantastic experience at Long Beach Beer Lab and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great beer selection, delicious food, and a fun atmosphere. It's definitely worth a visit

Excellent food and beer quality. They make really good pizza with sourdough starter. The vegan options are spectacular (try the vegan Margherita and add black olives to it). Their French fries are also very yummy. We had to wait a bit for our food, but it was totally worth it. They have pop ups and local art fairs quite often.

Hi, This is a great Beer spot. Always friendly and the beer is fresh and chill. The pizza is Top notch! Will be back soon.

Oh I am SUPER bummed that LB Beer Lab has decided not to bake bread or desserts anymore except perhaps at seasonal times! I loved to pop in and get a pizza, beer, and a loaf of olive bread to take home and slather with butter. So sad. But we broke traditional from ordering a full size Margherita Pizza getting a personal size one along with a personal size Mushroom Pizza. I have to say that while I think it's a great idea to have personal size pizza, they never seem to have the same gusto as a full size one. Perhaps it's just too much of the edge taking over the pie and thus less dough and toppings. While the Margherita was up to par we were woefully disappointed with the Mushroom Pizza which the staff said was an improvement over previous versions. While the super thin slices of potato didn't disrupt the pie nor do the ricotta (I love white pizzas), my question is: WHERE WERE THE MUSHROOMS! Were they chopped up? Bummed. While I loved this place, the change of dropping bread and a shortened menu list, make me wonder if it's just turning into a complete brewhouse. Bummer.

Steve and I recently had some beer frombLong Beach Beer Lab and I have to say we were both highly impressed with what we had. It was a beer type we don't often get but usually enjoy, a Schwarzbier, a kind of dark lager called May The Schwartz Be With You which is a reference to Spaceballs movie. We really liked this beer a lot! We enjoyed the flavors of maltiness, smokiness and hoppiness. The beer is nice and dark in appearance and in body it goes down nice and smooth. An excellent Schwarzbier, that much is for certain!

The place is amazing. Love their pizza Staff is super friendly. The place is super chill.

great place, you can never go wrong with a beer bar that sells pizza. the pizza dough was great with an interesting spin on the crust. great beer options and cool atmosphere

Looking at my last review, it looks like it was a while since we visited LBBL so we decided to give them a try again while in the area. I'm surprised that they have expanded since they originally opened and now occupy the unit next door as well, which is refreshing because the original tap room was kind of small. There's plenty of more room now and the kitchen seems to have some good eats as well. All the beers we tried hit the spot as well.

Long Beach Beer Lab is the type of place I'd like to spend a lazy Saturday afternoon: drink a beer, eat a pizza snack, then take a nap. It's lowkey and just kinda chill with a good food program. Apparently all of their goods are baked in house which is pretty genius since it's all fermentation. I tried their cheese pizza ($19) and it was quite possibly one of the best cheese pizzas I've ever eaten. The pizza dough was fragrant with just the right amount of pull with a solid undercarriage. The cheese easily complemented the fantastic flavor of the dough. We also shared the Mediterranean Picnic Box ($12) which is kind of an incredible deal. Ours came with hummus, pickled veggies, olives + pickles, cheese, candied nuts, sourdough crackers and some fruit. This was the perfect accompaniment to our beers just because it was a healthier alternative to what we'd usually crave after a few beers. It was snacky and excellent for sharing. I'd definitely recommend checking out Long Beach Beer Lab if you happen to be in this neck of the woods.

I was there for an art showing. It does seem to be a good place for pizza beer, pinball machines, and board games. The establishment was pretty much clean. The gender-neutral bathrooms were clean, too, but they could use a little work. The staff was friendly and pleasant enough if I'm in the area. I can see myself returning to try at least the pizza and frozen lemonade. Cause I'm not a beer drinker.

The long beach beer lab is a gem aside from good beers you get awesome locally made breads and pizzas. I think one of the best margarita pizzas in long beach is found right here and it has a unique look to it as well. The brewery has tons of seating, brewery merch to buy and lots of arcade games to go have fun on. Service was good for the most part, there was a worker that seemed to keep wanting to flirt with a guy at the bar so we waited to get one of our bread trays for a bit. Other than her everyone else was helpful, friendly and quick. I'd for sure stop in for pizza, bread or beer. Everything here is really good.

Pizza was tasty, cowboy coffee and frozen lemonade was super refreshing on a hot day, and my pup was super comfy. Brought my grandma with me just to get out and try a new place. Didn't disappoint. Chill vibe, awesome people working there and great regulars. Definitely will be back.

The pizzas were delicious. We had 3 personal sized pizzas (Mushroom, Margherita and Cheese pizzas) accompanied with a basket of fries (plenty for 2 adults and a child), and a pair of frozen lemonade drinks (tastes natural with minimal sugar). It was worth the wait for the pizzas. At first I was like what is taking so long? Then I realized once I received my pizzas that it was definitely worth the wait. If I happen to be in the area again, then I would like to try one of their desserts (cream cheese swirl brownie or their cookies n cream cheesecake). Hats off to the chef, on the great quality pizzas. I wish they served some pizzas with protein, but regardless I still really enjoyed the food.

The pizza is great! Their dough is a specialty for sure! We have gone two both, the one on Willow & their new location on Anaheim ( a nice little walk ). Good vibe at both spots. Their beers are good, they brew many varieties to meet everyone's taste buds. Both locations are comfortable breweries.

Great place to hangout with friends, they have a ton of tables and provide board games. But the food and drinks were not the best. Got a pizza and house made root beer float. Their root beer was bad, they had no ice (which would have been great if they'd mentioned that to me that their ice machine was broken), which led to them giving me a very flavorless root beer - apparently this threw off their ratio? But they did fix it a little when I mentioned it to them, added a bit more of their root beer syrup, which made it taste better, but very lukewarm. Pizza was ok, got their spicy mushrooms wild... the kimchi was a little weird on the pizza, didn't quite mesh well with the pizza.

Thinking about what's for dinner and pizza was the option. So my date sent me a few options for pizza locations in his surrounding area .. I picked this place because what! They have a pizza with star crust!!! I immediately asked the cashier which pizza it was and it was the margarita pizza. I got that with jalapeños, added some red pepper flakes and my goodness! It's also a brewery, I didn't drink any beer. They have a few themed nights as well. Since it was Monday , it was movie Monday! There's parking in the back, you seat yourself and there's arcade games as well. Definitely would recommend this establishment

I really wanted to like this place. The building was cool. They had a decent variety of beers. It setup to be the type of spot I love... but the staff was just whack... I got there around 11:30 and was the first person inside - they opened at 11:00. They appeared confused by me being there. Then I stood while two employees ran around doing things, but never acknowledging me. I finally ordered a beer and sat down to work. The beer was decent. The second beer I had was also just decent. Nothing amazing. I will say the pizzas looked great, but I did not try one and cannot provide an opinion. I would give this place another shot when I am back in town and hopefully it was just a bad day, but if this is what the service is like all the time I cannot imagine it will survive.

Stopped by on a Saturday night and it wasn't too busy. Parking along the street was easy to find as well. Plenty of seating, dog friendly, some arcade machines, and tons of fun board/card games to play with your group. Very chill place to catch up with friends or go on a date! Large beer menu, but unfortunately not a lot of non-beer options (which is understandable). I believe the only non-beer options were a seltzer and margs/frozen margs. Staff were helpful and patient with our many questions about menu, and let us sample some beers that we were interested in. Drinks were pretty good - we ordered two LB Blondes, a frozen marg, and a Winter Water seltzer. For food, our group of four ordered a Margherita pizza and a spicy mushrooms wild pizza to share. Heads up - your food will probably take a long time to come out, but we didn't really notice since we were playing card games. The Margherita was delicious, and was definitely the group favorite. The spicy mushrooms wild, on the other hand, wasn't very good. We ordered it because it looked unique, but the combination of flavors was just confusing. We had leftovers that we unfortunately tossed. They also host a lot of fun community events like trivia nights and yoga + beer! Overall, cute spot that's worth the visit in you're in the area.

I absolutely adore this place. The atmosphere is 100% fun. The beers are good-these days there's a lot of brew lab competition. I love that they also have slushees, barley wine and gin and tonics-clearly making an effort! Their pizzas and baked goods will absolutely knock your socks off. They have the best pizza going hands down. If you've got a hankering for meat you'll be disappointed. My advice-learn to live without it and enjoy the pizza for what it is-simply the best. If I'm lucky enough to get here when they still have bread I always buy a loaf. Ditto pastries, cookies, and anything sweet. That makes beer lab the rare place where I have a great Friday night dinner and then a Saturday breakfast. One small disappointment is that I can't buy the smaller packages of pickled vegetable-you have to get an entire picnic set. Rock on Beer Lab, I am always coming back.

We were flying out of LBC after being in town for a funeral and the traffic gods were on our side. Having checked out of our airbnb, over 3 hrs till our flight, and very little bar selection at the convenient airport, we found the beer lab! we had 2 beers & were disappointed! IPA was tasty and we were a bit sad that we didn't eat lunch here. This is definitely on our list to come back!

Let's keep yelp real!!! Honestly I can't find one bad thing to say about this establishment. I've been here to pick up beer, drink beer alone, drink beer with people, eat pizza, etc etc. Customer service is great; they are helpful and knowledgable about their products. Not sure what to get? They have no problem advising with samples. Inside has a really cool atmosphere with plenty of seating available. Now the important part... the beer. Its a nice manageable menu with a couple rotating options. I appreciate that their social media keeps you updated on upcoming beers and events. Finally, the Margherita Pizza, which I order every time despite my lactose intolerance, is fuego. Always a good time.

We rarely go here because it is expensive, but once in a while it's a nice treat. The margherita pizza and beer taste great. The wild mushroom pizza from a couple of years ago was great. We are SO disappointed with this current version of mushroom pizza. It tastes terrible. It tasted bitter, and barely had any mushroom and cheese. This pizza is such a rip off. It's mostly mustard seed and parsley. This should be called mustard seed and parsley pizza. Seriously.

First time here! Order food and drinks first and then find a table to seat either inside or outside.

Chill space with plenty of seating and parking. The beer is good and so is the pizza! The thick sourdough crust goes perfectly with the beers. A good spot to meet up with friends and grab some good food and drinks.

Amazing pizza! Had to get the margherita pizza and the cheese pizza, love the quality. Service was amazing, amazing place to go after work with family and coworkers! Desserts are also a hit, with amazing cinnamon rolls and lemon bars.

Came here on a Friday night for singles event. That means that there was lots of people here. Knowing that they were hosting an event they only had two bartenders for the whole bar. Waited in line a minimum of 10 to 15 minutes each time I ordered a drink. They also only carry one type of white wine, which is not a problem, however, they cannot even keep that one type of wine chilled. I ordered it once and it was fine. I went up the second time to order it and they said they had nothing chilled. PS do not order the mango seltzer, it tastes like a water down Capri Sun.

Maybe I was a little harsh with my first review. I'm still not a fan of their beer but the people inside that kitchen know what they're doing! Plus the beertenders usually provide great service. It's a chill spot. Couple TVs, board games, pinball machines and a Sake bar. Parking can usually be found within a block of the brewery but it isn't the best neighborhood to walk around in so keep an eye on your surroundings. Highly recommend: fresh/day old bread, pizza, & baked treats

I've been coming here for the past few years and I've been coming here more frequently. I've never had a bad beer here. They've always been good. The Wrigs lager is top tier and I find myself craving it a lot. I've had a few of the desserts they have and those have always been good quality snacks. I've yet to have the pizza here but I swear I will get it soon. This is definitely a jewel in the craft beer scene. Great beer, great service, and a great atmosphere to enjoy quality beer.

Cool spot. I didn't realize it was as big as it is. I didn't get a chance to try any food just some fries. Had a beer. I would definitely go back to try the food. The customer service was pretty good. The set up was nice. Nice decor.

Celebrated my birthday at Long Beach beer lab and had a great time! We went on a Saturday and they happened to have a market going on downstairs so you weren't able to get a table in that area while it was going on. Luckily, my friends had arrived around 330 and the upstairs was pretty empty so we got to hang out up there mostly by ourselves! I loved the vibe in that area with the lights, couches, big communal table, and games. There is only one bar downstairs so you have to go down when you want a drink/to order food but it wasn't really a big deal. They have great beers, was a fan of their IPAs and light & crisp options. I really wanted to like the tiki dole light, a sour dipa, but it was too sweet for me. The bartender was nice about it it though and switched it out for me - they do give samples so I did that next time I wasn't sure about a beer. Not only do they have great drinks, but delicious food, too! We ordered the sourdough loaf, margherita pizza, mushroom pizza, grandma slice, Cinnamon roll, and lemon tart. Everything was so good! My favorite was the mushroom pizza, it was pretty truffly tasting. I didn't try the cinnamon roll, but did enjoy the lemon tart. They are a bread lab too so makes sense why everything tasted so good. It was busy but never felt too crowded and the employees seemed to be able to handle it because we had no issues, thanks LBBL!

I live not too far from here so always wanted to check it out; finally came for Sen. Gonzalez luncheon. I arrived on my bike and was pleased to find there was bicycle parking in the front:) They have done an amazing job with the space in order to make breweries feel cool, homey, and welcoming to non-beer drinkers. There are two main sections, one for ordering food/drinks, and the other for seating. The entrance is on the main street of Willow, but steer away from parking on the street because it's sparse, rather park in the back where there are ample spots. I had a doughnut, Marg pizza, and a salad that surpassed my expectations for a brewery (I was expecting more bar food) and I'm grateful for it! However my food did take over 20 minutes to be made; I'm not sure if that's the norm or I was just an outlier. This space is easily transformable for any event you can imagine. This is a great addition to the community!

Came here after Rosie's dog beach to grab a bite. Pizza is amazing, beers hit the spot and dog friendly.

A lot has changed since I last stopped by here. I was already having a tough day and the staff was so rude to me :( I ordered one Margherita pizza and it took over 30 minutes to get. I inquired after I noticed another party receiving their order first--two of the same pizzas I had ordered--even though they arrived after us. The staff was so rude to me and told me I needed to wait my turn. Once I received the pizza, I asked if they had any pepper flakes. The girl there told me to check the barrel table where they keep them. I told her there was nothing there and she rolled her eyes and walked over there (clearly annoyed that I asked). There was nothing there and she bluntly told me I needed to find one at another table. Then she went back to being behind the counter (however, not at the register). To make matters worse, some of the crust was undercooked and the pizza didn't taste that great. What happened to this place? I used to love it here when I visited Long Beach more frequently.

Great beer, great atmosphere, good seating. Bartenders where very friendly and made sure to keep the good times rolling.

Pizza was soggy, very little topping . it had a lot of red sauce on it and part of the crust was burned. I was so excited to try sourdough pizza. I think the dough was off.if you held it by the crust, the pizza hung vertical. Couldn't find a beer I liked sorry. It was like $35 $40. Very expensive for the quality. I will not return. That's all.

Been coming here regularly for years and have been a proud Lab Rat (beer club) member for several. Levi & Harmony are the wonderful owners of the brewery and bakery. Everything has improved over the years and this is one of my favorite places in LB. The pizzas are crave worthy, pastries and bread fantastic, and the beer keeps getting better and better. Go on a Monday for the onion rings - they're totally worth it! I am so proud that they acted as a bodega during 2020 and really worked their asses off to serve the community. This speaks volumes of the type of business and people they are. Now that they have been able to expand into the brewery area next door, it's more comfortable for seating areas. Don't forget to check out their small hidden sake bar in the brewery area too!

The Long Beach Beer Lab sells beer, bread, pizza, and sweat treats. The outer pizza crust is thick and doughy while the inside crust is thin. Everything tastes delicious

Solid spot. Tons of beer options, plus they also do some coffee/tea stuff. Food and dessert options also available

If you're looking for a solid brewery with ample room, a great selection, and stellar customer service, Long Beach Beer Lab is a solid option. If you're a beer lover, they've got plenty of choices to select from. With a number of rotating taps, there's always something new to taste whether your a fan of IPA's or Blonde Ales. Their food menu isn't robust but it's definitely what you expect from a brewery. I will say, their Pizza is one of the better pies I've had from a brewery. Can't go wrong with a cool beer and pizza on a warm day. Also, they're dog friendly so feel free to bring the pups. They have some arcade games and even board games too and even host a trivia night from time to time. Overall it's a great experience and the customer service was excellent on a Saturday.

I came here early on a Saturday, right when they opened. I really enjoyed the hop water they had on tap; I ordered the chips and salsa as well as the salad. Good ambiance and good food!

Came here to grab a quick lunch to go. Loved the pizza crust. I really enjoyed the chewiness of the crust. The bread was pretty good too.

Great beer, great food selection, fun pinball machines. Had a lot of fun here. Vegan menu a wide selection of beer too.

LBBL is a staple of any Long Beach visit. In recent years they've expanded quite a bit and has grown from a small tasting room to a decently sized hang out spot. The service here is great and the staff is always extremely friendly. I definitely enjoy the beer but I wouldn't say I love it because there is always a miss here and there, which honestly is fine because that is the nature of experimentation. You learn from what works and what doesn't and I commend them for that. The real highlight here though is the pizza. Every time we stop by we have the margherita pizza and it's one of the best if not the best pizza I've ever had. The crust is incredible and honestly all of their bread products are insane. If you don't come here for the beer, do it for the bread and pizza

We love beer lab! The beer and pizza are incredible. We always come for trivia on Wednesdays which is a great time!

Okay so I know this is a beer lab, but like can we all just agree that LBBL has some of the best pizza in LB? Atmosphere: street parking (never too hard to find when I've gone). Big beer hall. Order at the front and take a seat where available. All the times I've went it hasn't been toooo crowded, and those times have ranged from Wednesday to Friday evenings and Saturday afternoons. Food and drinks: real talk, the Margherita is where it is at. The tomato sauce is perfectly tart and blends well with the roasted cloves of garlic and basil on the pizza. The cheese is chewy and perfectly balanced the sauce and toppings, and the sourdough crust that is twisted to create the star effect is like an added bonus cause it's like a bread knot you would enjoy on its own. It's a delightful pizza that I always look forward to when I'm there. We've also had some of the shareable apps. My favorite is the hummus plate, which is perfectly creamy and abundant! It also comes with fresh pita that is sprinkled with a zaatar like seasoning and it is fluffy heaven. We've also had the roasted fingerling potatoes and those as pretty standard and good potatoes, but nothing too write home about. The beers on draft are plentiful and there's a lot to choose from for even the picky drinkers. I personally love their saison's and stouts. Service: friendly and accommodating. You do order at the front and pick up the food when it's ready so people checking on tables is minimal. Overall, great vibes, great pizza, and great beer.

I can't believe this place has one of the best margarita pizzas ever! The crust on this pizza is insanely good: perfectly crispy and chewy! I was very pleasantly surprised by this pizza. There is also great beer here as you can probably guess. They also bake some of the freshest bread in town so make sure you check out their baked offerings as well! The staff are always pleasant and patient. The brewery is set up nicely for food and drinks and can accommodate larger groups. Definitely check this place out if you love beer or pizza (which is basically everyone!)

I'm not a beer drinker so this review does not reflect any beer. Sorry! Lol my boyfriend did order some beers but I forgot to ask him what he thought. But I do enjoy pizza and we ordered the Margherita Pizza. And wow! That was some amazing pizza. The dough was perfect. Would definitely go back to enjoy their pizza again.

Seeing at the pinball machines just brings back such a chill vibe. Really felt nice just seeing that there are folks keeping that tradition alive! We got the Margherita pizza and from the symphony of herbs to the texture of the crust, it was so delicious. Service was very hands off, and come to the counter if you need anything type of service, which wasn't a bad thing. Our group enjoyed just chatting over drinks, pizza, and the sounds of pinball machines without getting interrupted. The parking is kind of inconvenient if you can't find a space on the curb in front. There is a parking lot in the back of the building, but not entirely sure it's for the public or customers and even then, it's quite a walk to the Beer Lab. But if you don't mind parallel parking down the street and walking, totally recommend checking out the LB Beer Lab!

Unfortunately the only kosher place around but the prices are absolutely ridiculous and they won't answer the phone. Even more egregious, if u try to order online, which is the only way to order without going in, the add a 20% tip, and you can not remove the tip. So on top of their ridiculous prices they put a 20% increase. I do hear that the pizza is good, thus the 2 star.

Tonight was one of those nights where you just want to order a pizza and watch the Laker game on a Friday night. Unfortunately, my pizza turned out to be very disappointing. It was overcooked, burnt, and not like usual. Hopefully, next time they will check the pizzas before giving them out! Jayson L
