Can I bring outside alcohol to a private event?

No outside alcohol. Period. We can provide non-alcoholic beverages for a fee or they can be brought in by yourself for no extra cost.  Wine may be available to purchase under certain circumstances. Feel free to ask us about it if you'd like wine too! 


Can I bring my own food or book an outside food vendor?

Smog City West- You may bring in any outside food of your choosing. All cooking must be done offsite. Upon request, Smog City can provide a list of frequently used catering services.

Smog City Brewery- This location typically has food vendors 7 days a week. No outside food is allowed while there is a vendor on site, with the exception of desserts. In the case of booking a fully private buyout event, you may bring in your own vendor/food with approval from Smog City.



Are you family friendly?

Absolutely! We welcome guests of all ages provided they are accompanied by a parent/guardian?


Are pets allowed at your locations?

Well behaved pets kept on leash close to their owner are allowed.


Do you provide any games or activities?

We have fun outdoor games like cornhole and giant Jenga available upon request.


Can my guests pay on separate tabs?

Yes, we can arrange for your party to pay on separate tabs. Smog City will need to know this detail in advance. We can provide your group with wristbands to track sales to ensure the minimum is met. If the beverage minimum is not met throughout the duration of the event, whomever booked and signed for the event will be responsible for the remaining balance.



Do you serve alcoholic beverages other than beer?

In the case of a FULL buyout of a location, Smog City can provide wine for purchase. At times, the tap list includes seltzers. However, it is not guaranteed that we will have seltzers available the day of your event. 


Can I bring my own decorations?

You can bring decorations for your event provided that you do not use any destructive or hazardous items or fasteners. This means no nails, screws, bolts, glue, thumb tacks, pins, duct tape, paint, ink, confetti, glitter, or pyrotechnics. Approved fasteners are string or cord, zip ties, twist ties, masking/painter's tape, 3M contact strips. You are responsible for cleanup of all items at the conclusion of your event. You will be responsible for the cost of repairing any damage or cleaning of our facilities by your decorations or the actions of you and your guests.


What is the cost of booking an event?

Upfront cost is a $100-$200 booking fee. This amount is paid when you sign your event contract agreement and ensures that your desired space is reserved for your party's use on the day you choose. 

In addition to the booking fee, Smog City will establish a beverage minimum for your event. This cost is variable and based on several factors: party size, time of day, duration, day of the week, and amenities/services chosen. Your party will be responsible for meeting or exceeding the pre-determined minimum amount. If your group tab falls under the minimum amount, you will still be charged the full minimum amount + 20% gratuity.
