Santa Monica Brew Works

"We had a voucher from British Airways because our flight was delayed. The bar didn‘t accept the voucher, saying it was not valid for alcoholic drinks. In another bar there was no problem in accepting the voucher for alcoholic drinks."

"For an airport bar, this place is your ticket! Service is fantastic, cheers to David!, food is something special, and it's hidden at a corner of the terminal! Would be 5 stars if it was a little more reasonably priced for 2 people to eat. Being in an airport, you can expect to pay the airport tax, but to spend over 60$ for 2 people to have a meal and a drink is a little steep, even for an airport. Prices aside, you will not regret spending your layover at this joint!"

"Great staff / service. Probably the best in the terminal (TBIT). Also, it is the only place I found in this terminal that has live games on TV. The bar only seats about 14 people, with tables seating an additional 24 folks. The Incline IPA is great as a pre-departure beverage!"

"Loved the beer! It was so refreshing. Yummy giant pretzel & friendly service. Small pub menu. They do automatically charge around 18% gratuity. LAX has a section with haughty posh stores surrounded by cafes and restaurants that charge $20 for a burrito or a flimsy pizza. What is it with airport food? It’s called high rents. PF Chang will charge $24 for fried rice."

"Sorry, I gotta rate this a 5- the bar keep (Henry, a real pro at his work) knows his gig. They serve a top Double IPA - and a plate of fries for $6? Plus other bar food with a tick from other customers…"
