Highland Park Brewery

Though HPB is technically no longer in Highland Park, their warehouse-y Chinatown space is twice the size as the original, with plenty of tables for big groups, a dog-friendly front patio facing the park, and a wraparound bar with lots of taps inside. There's a solid bar menu with a very good cheeseburger, mango-habanero wings, a fried fish sandwich, and house kimchi, all way better than they need to be. And yes, the beer is still fantastic. This is where you should be drinking hoppy pilsners before a Dodgers game. (The stadium is a 15-minute walk away.)
