The Kitchen

Baked before dawn.
Served with pride.

Our partnership with local bakers ensures that every loaf, croissant, and tart is crafted from scratch before the sun comes up. We don't do frozen. We don't do wholesale. We do fresh.

Sourdough & Focaccia daily
Seasonal fruit tarts
Savory hand pies & quiches

Pro tip: The sourdough pairs perfectly with our Amber Ale.

Our Philosophy

Slow craft in a fast town.

LC Brewing exists to slow the pace down. We believe that great beer and real food cannot be rushed, and that a community gathering space should feel like a living room, not a nightclub. Located on Highway 101, we are your pause button on the coast.
