We were on a weekend visit to Santa Monica and discovered a jewel. Can we scoop up the Alehouse and take it to N. California? It has now become a destination for us. Thanks Santa Monica and the Alehouse!

Leo and the staff of Library Alehouse are terrific. Great beer choices, and some of the best pub grub in town. I highly recommend the burgers, tri-tip sandwich and Caesar salad.

Great selection of beer on tap, good service and a pretty good happy hour. I have only tried the happy hour food and it was tasty, especially for the price.

You won't need your library card to check out one of the 29 brews on tap...bring it anyway, it'll make you look more innocent when you get arrested for drooling over the menu. Killer burgers (bacon & bleu is...

The name expresses the spirit of the place well. Great beer - I almost always pick one of their seasonal brews. Good food - nicer than your usual pub grub but just as comforting.

The Alehouse has a nice warm feel to it, and a fantastic beer selection. Order a taster selection of their best brews to get the most bang for your buck. The food seems to be something of an afterthought to...

Back in our single 'daze', we loved the "male"house for the easy-going, jeans-and-t-shirt wearing, I'm-not-a wannabe-actor-type guys this place attracts. Must be plain and simple: Great food, good people and a...
