First time here and totally loved it. Outside patio was very well covered. We were able to sit with our furry friends. We had one of the best pretzels and Mediterranean salads. I've had in a long time. It was amazingly tasty. Pretzel came with this amazing Cheddar cheese sauce and stone mustard. What a spectacular lunch.

This review is long overdue. We love greencheek. Great food, beer, and service. Even when the line is long it moves fast. Husband loves their IPAs and I love their sour. Smashburger and pretzel are a must. Can also bring our baby and she has a great time lol.

Cute area and plenty of seating outside. I came on a Friday afternoon and was surprised by how busy it was for a weekday. I just had a beer which was great, but the food looks good too so I'd love to come back and try that sometime!

Came here for some drinks with some friends after they graciously picked us up from SNA. The space is big with indoor and a huge outdoor seating area. Outdoor has shades so even in the SoCal heat it feels nice. Lots of dogs around so my kids had fun just dog watching. The drinks and food were really good too.

Parking is alittle tough here, but they do have a small parking lot in front of the beer spot. You might have to be an Eagle and look for those spots. I came here to hang and for a running club. They have a big space to hang outside and inside for private events. I ate a burger and had a beer. Both were yummy, no complaints!

Adding this to my gatekeeping list lol. Fries were surprisingly tasty, cheese with the pretzel had good texture. The outside atmosphere was quite lovely. It's a kid and dog friendly place. I highly recommend this place for us milenials finding a diamond in the rough. Beer sold in 4-packs were worth it to bring home.

Green cheek has never disappointed us when we're craving a good burger! My boyfriend and I have visited this spot a few times with friends. It's located in the lab so parking is really tough, you'll probably have to park around the block and walk a bit. Luckily theres a lot of seating at this brewery. We always order their burgers because its a really reliable smash burger. We love their cheese and bread. Recently we've tried their loaded tots and I feel meh about them, the cheese dip tastes like nacho cheese if you like that. I can't remember the names of the beers or ales we've had, but no complaints there. All light and refreshing. Also! The last time we visited there was an error with our order and the staff was nice enough to fix it for us and give us additional fries. Will definitely come back.

Came here on a weekend trip in from LA and loved it! Great dog friendly patio area with plenty of sun and shade. Lively but not too noisy, long tables for groups of friends. One of us needed wifi for a quick work task and it seemed to be fast and easy to log in. Loved the IPAs, tried both the West Coast and hazy. Really loved their food selections! The plant-based BBQ burger and fries were awesome (and I am picky about fries!) and my pretzel was soft and fresh with a great queso and stoneground mustard. Service was friendly and helpful throughout. For three people, two burgers, a pretzel, and four beers, the total came out to less than a hundred, which was totally reasonable. Parking was a little dicey-- took a couple laps around before got lucky and found a spot in their dedicated lot. It seems like the area around it has some cool stuff... definitely a repeat next time I'm in the area!
