I haven't had dinner here, so I can't speak to that. But as far as brunch goes, I expect that I'll keep to my usual (cheaper) haunts.

The place is BYOB with no corkage, which always earns an extra star in my book. Since you save on drinks, you can happily indulge in one of their tasty appetizers or desserts.

That is to say, if you're a beer snob and tired of bars whose selections don't extend past PBR with Sierra Nevada as the premium brew, yet you don't want a "premium" atmosphere with "premium" prices, you've found your new watering hole. Verdugo has an impressive selection of beers on tap and bottled, all in what appears from the outside to be a hole-in-the-wall dive bar in an unexpected location.
I was here on a Friday night and it was lively but not overcrowded. Most of the action happens out on the spacious patio which has tables with benches along with actual wooden beer pong tables, complete with cutouts for your red cups.

Still, the staff is super friendly - all offering up friendly greetings and introductions as well as lot of compliments on my bike (if there's anything I'm a sucker for more than flattery, it's flattery about my ride). The shop reminds me a bit of Orange20 when it first started, though smaller. The difference, however, is that Orange20, while being able to cater to the fixed gear afficionandos, also has plenty to offer any other type of urban cyclist. Los Angeles Brakeless, however, may be defining itself too much as a one-trick pony. At any rate, I hope the best for these guys as I'm all about urban bike culture, and am interested to see how they grow.
