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.

Great food options. Great artwork. Comfortable setting inside and outside. Plenty of parking nearby. If I go back to Santa Ana I will definitely return. Bonus: BOOTH BY BRYANT nearby.

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!

Like A Million Suns is a world class hazy IPA. I think the secret is out; it was busy at 1p on a Tuesday that also happened to be Christmas Eve. Some of the bartenders could maybe be more friendly? But they were willing to pour a splash-taste of whatever, so maybe it was my attitude that needed adjusting. This will be a must-stop in the future when I go through Costa Mesa.

Came here recently as part of a large group and boy was it hopping (we are a book club but it was also trivia night). We found a big table upstairs to accommodate us and ordered our own food and drinks. Most of us picked the smash burger, which I think is what they're known for. The fries were super good but also liked the tots.

Parking is tough and the line is crazy! Fun brewery but the lines were crazy out the door. All of their beers were delicious.

This venue is an excellent place to unwind, enjoy some delicious food, and sip on refreshing drinks! The atmosphere is inviting, and the staff goes above and beyond to ensure you have a pleasant experience. Upon entering, you'll find a spacious indoor dining area complemented by a large outdoor space perfect for soaking up the sun or enjoying a cool breeze. As you walk in, you're welcomed by a vibrant food menu displayed prominently. After perusing your options, you'll join the line to check out the drink menu, which boasts an impressive selection. Once you've made your choices, you place your order and receive your drinks right away, setting the tone for a fun time. While you await your food, keep an eye on the buzzer you get when ordering; it vibrates to signal when your meal is ready for pickup. This system makes it efficient and convenient, allowing you to grab your food without any hassle. The slushie flavors change frequently. On this occasion, they offered a delightful Dole Whip slushie that was simply delicious and refreshing. In addition to a great beer selection, they also have an array of amazing seltzers--my personal favorites were the lavender lemonade and the paloma, both of which were bursting with flavor. To share, we ordered the smash burger, accompanied by crispy tater tots and flavorful wings. Each dish was cooked to perfection, making for a delightful meal that left us fully satisfied. Overall, this spot is a fantastic choice for anyone looking to enjoy good food and drinks in a lively environment.

Absolutely love the beers here, especially their hazy IPAs. Always an interesting flavor profile with nice depth. The added bonus is the food at this Green Cheek, since I'm so used to having to grab food from a pretty overpriced food truck. Fries, wings, burgers, they've all hit the spot for me. Especially their lemon pepper wings since I'm a dry rub guy. They have some indoor seating, more space outside in the back. No heating, so bring a jacket on a cooler day. They have their own parking lot.

Ok so this is technically a recap of my 3 visits over the last month. Last one being last night 7-1-24. Huge shout out to the bartender that turned on the actual sound of the USA game, that's great service! We had the wings that you can see we devoured. Just regular buffalo wings that to our surprise were quite meaty with no fat. The one picture with the stout was the first times we saw lots of people with the lavender seltzer and it's the main reason I got now. I even picked up a four pack last Friday 6/28 to take for pregame at the Tim McGraw concert. My friend absolutely loved it! Overall great spot for great beer, service and wings. Gotta try that pretzel next time.

Really cool place to grab a beer and a bite. Lots of outdoor seating and tables inside as well. Parking can be a challenge if it gets busy as there are many other businesses around the brewery. You can only order one beer at a time. They have some really good drinks, I got to try the lavender lemonade seltzer and the guava beer (sour) both were really good! I also tried their Smashburger which came with fries (Substitute for salad or tater tots available) for $14. Super good burgers! Soft tender patties and good bun! My only criticism is that the burger is kinda small and they give you only a little bit of fries (can see in my pic), however, this place was great!
