Hours against the security queue
Chicken and Beer opens at 5am and closes at 11pm. FlyIndex's wait-time data puts the typical LAX checkpoint queue at 9 minutes around 5am.
Across the week, LAX security runs longest around 12pm at a median of 20 minutes, and lightest around 1am at 2 minutes. This location is already open before those queues build.

About this location
Positioned near Gate 32A in Terminal 3, it opens at 5am and runs to 11pm, bracketing nearly the full span of the terminal's flight schedule. Alfred Coffee and Cava sit nearby but neither pours a craft beer list, which is the specific draw here rather than the Southern menu alone. Terminal 3 has only the one location, so a traveler assigned a gate elsewhere in the terminal is looking at a longer walk than the name alone suggests.
Other options in Terminal 3
All past the same checkpoint, so you can reach them without clearing security again.
