http://www.boulevardmusic.com The Culver City emporium features all things musical, with acoustic-instrument sales, workshops, rentals, lessons, and in-store concerts by folk, roots and country musicians. No alcohol. All ages. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.brennanspub-la.com There's really only one thing you need to understand about Brennan's Pub in Marina del Rey: turtle races. The semi-legendary 1972 dive bar has been racing the lethargic reptiles out back every Thursday night for decades. You can rent the well-taken-care-of little fellas on site, or BYOT (Bring Your Own Turtle), as long as you agree to abide by the rules of play. Inside, Brennan's is a little dusty and crawling with both string lights and beer signs – exactly what you want in a classic Westside dive bar. You may also pine for cheap pitchers of low quality beer or well drinks that won't break your wallet, both of which Brennan's provides. Hot wings emerge from the bar with surprising regularity, as does the Brennan's burger, a simple bar version that is half-priced on Wednesdays. Thankfully, there's no turtle soup on the menu.

http://www.brewbakers1.com Hops and yeast. These two substances, which we tragically take for granted, find their spotlight at this delightfully understated bakery and brewery. Discretely located in a seemingly stagnant Huntington Beach warehouse strip, Brewbaker's allows you to create your own blends of mouth-watering beer and nosh on a slice of freshly baked pizza at the same time. While the personal beer-making process is the main attraction, owner Dennis Midden maintains that baking is his first love, and a chomp through his pretzels-chewy loops with a perfect crustiness and enough salt to enhance the taste but not cover it-confirms it. Despite its short hours, Brewbaker's is usually packed with patrons in the evenings and offers an intimate atmosphere and great conversation from the slightly eccentric staff. Come for the food and brews, but stay for the fun! Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
The 1700 block of East Broadway is a good place to be if you like inexpensive, cozy gay watering holes like the Brit. It's small and dark inside, and the bartenders and patrons are fun and friendly. There's no better place if you're looking for a no-fuss, casual atmosphere to hang out, talk and drink. As one patron put it, the Brit is "laid-back, no attitude." It has a full liquor bar and offers a good selection of beers, including Newcastle, Blue Moon, Shock Top Belgian White, Guinness and Sam Adams. It also has a smoking patio, three television screens, two pool tables and an Internet jukebox. Happy hour starts when the bar opens and lasts until 7 p.m., featuring $3 beer and well drinks, with $2 drafts. On Thursdays, beers are $2.50 and pool is free. It's cash-only, but don't worry-if you forget your scratch, there's an ATM inside. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.brixsunsetbeach.com Brix in Sunset Beach is a nice place to get a glass of wine (or several assuming you're participating in a tasting.) This establishment sports an upscale, yet relaxed vibe with its rich, colorfully painted walls, granite counter tops and dark-hued mood lighting. Though Brix is technically a wine bar, they also offer a respectable, ever-changing menu of brews. Among those in current rotation are selections from Telegraph Brewing Company, Stone and Dogfish Head. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
Sometimes, you just want to see pirate décor, and when that urge strikes, you should get in your car and drive up to the Buccaneer Lounge in Sierra Madre. The dive bar is bedecked with portraits of Blackbeard and his wenches, as well as a 30-foot, glow-in-the-dark mural behind the bar, featuring scenes on a pirate ship and in a tavern, bare-breasted concubines and all. That, combined with healthy pours, a pool table and a jukebox, make this one of the best dives around. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.bullbarlongbeach.com Serving up draft beers and mixed drinks, the Bull Bar stands out between the Drapery Store and a Starbucks. Dimly lit and narrow, the place can feel a little cramped, especially when it gets crowded on weekends. But the bartenders have an antidote for claustrophobia: strong drinks at a reasonable price. A typical cocktail such as a 7 and 7 will set you back $5. Entertainment comes in the form of four TVs, two pool tables and live entertainment Thursdays through Sundays. Join the other patrons by decorating a dollar bill and adding it to the collection displayed on the walls of the joint. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.boogaloo.com Founded in 1995, it has been Cafe Boogaloo's sole purpose to bring the best of art, music, food and social awareness to Hermosa Beach residents and its surrounding neighbors. The venue has since become a popular spot for artists of blues, roots, New Orleans funk, soul and numerous other eclectic musical genres to hit up during their tours of Southern California. In addition to their offering of sexy sounds and up-beat nightlife, Cafe Boogaloo takes comfort food seriously, using only fresh and organic ingredients to make its Southern-influenced & home-style foods. So come for the eats, stay for the music and leave with your senses satisfied. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.catandcustardcup.com La Habra's toniest (read: priciest) restaurant: Nothing on the dinner menu is less than $15. Fancy-prepared American food in an English-pub setting (though it's quite a bit larger than a typical English pub). Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.catalinajazzclub.com Catalina Bar & Grill is one of Los Angeles' top jazz clubs, even if it's housed in a decidedly non-glamorous red-brick edifice that looks like a generic Hollywood office building. Once you're inside, though, after entering through the garage in back, the spacious room is much more inviting, with tables decked out in elegant white tablecloths pressed up against a low stage in front of a red velvet curtain. The walls are tastefully decorated with paintings and photos of legendary jazz musicians, and the landmark venue has hosted some of the biggest names in traditional, mainstream jazz, including Chick Corea, Ella Fitzgerald, McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Scott, Pharoah Saunders, Jane Monheit, Roy Hargrove, Carmen McRae, Joe Zawinul, Joshua Redman, the Marsalis brothers, and an impressive variety of stellar Carters (Ron, Betty, Benny and even Wonder Woman's Lynda). It's a great place to hear music, although the drinks, admission, valet parking and cover minimums can be quite pricey. The kitchen serves similarly expensive entrees, including trout almondine and shrimp scampi pasta, but most visitors come for the live music instead of the food. All ages. Full bar.

http://www.cedarcreekinn.com The various Cedar Creeks offer similar menus featuring prime rib, rack of lamb and homemade desserts. The Brie-and-pecan-stuffed chicken breast comes with a creamy pear-sage sauce that draws out the fine, nutty flavor of the pecans. The large butterflied scampi is served with capers and diced Roma tomatoes. And the pot roast is a tribute to hearty northern Midwest German-American cooking.

http://www.clancyslb.com Clancy's is notable among the bars along Long Beach's busy Broadway stretch in that it is endearingly comfy instead of trendy and loud. The fish and chips blunt the effects of Jameson and Guinness, the preferred way to start your evening of merriment with friends. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.club149.com Pretty much anyone who has spent a sizable amount of time in North County has heard of this near-historic hangout. Suffering its ups and downs, the Basement Lounge got its start as an ultra hip subterranean nightclub, but ran into some legal issues a few years back regarding some sexy parties... and we'll pretty much leave it at that. Now under new management, the Basement Lounge (officially Club 149) is back and making its comeback. The Lounge, although still cramped as ever, strives for style with greater accessibility than ever before. You can catch everything from poetry readings to DJ sets within its walls, so if you're looking for a sleek venue with a dash of intellect, this is the place to be.

http://www.faisdodo.com Fais Do-Do is a Cajun dance party, as well as a phrase used by mothers to tell their infants to go to sleep. The Mid-City nightclub Fais Do-Do is very much a raging Cajun dance party, and a whole lot more besides, with its large bar and adjoining ballroom hosting a dizzying array of music and theater events. Based in a former bank building that was built in an Art Deco style in 1930, the club is now one of the main centers of nightlife in the Mid-City area once known as the Sugar Hill District. In the past, stellar musicians like John Coltrane, Billy Preston and the late Sam Cooke used to hang out here. More recently, a wide variety of influential rappers (including Scarub and 2Mex), Latin rockers (Quetzal), and world, jazz and blues musicians have made their mark on its stage. A large dance floor gives way to a wooden stage in the corner. A balcony above the bar looks down on the dance floor and toward the stage. The bar serves beer and wine, and the age limit is usually 21 & over. Street parking available. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.clubnokia.com Part of downtown's L.A. Live complex, this large club has a capacity of 2,300, with a VIP bar and a balcony overlooking the floor. Compared to the Nokia Theatre, the larger, neighboring venue across the plaza, Club Nokia is relatively intimate, with good sight lines and a great sound system. Longtime local promoter Goldenvoice books a variety of rock, pop, Latin and cultural events. Among the performers who've appeared on its large stage are Cyndi Lauper, X, the New York Dolls, Tyga, Public Image Ltd., Madness, Lalah Hathaway, Coldplay, Big Sean, Wu-Tang Clan, M83 and Black Star. All ages. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.cohibalongbeach.com A flight of stairs off Broadway leads the way to Cohiba, a fixture of the Pine Avenue nightclub scene. This establishment is sectioned into three rooms: a chill lounge, an entertaining live-music venue and popping nightclub. The largest space is 90 percent dance floor; its stage hosts reggae tunes on Sunday nights. Each room has at least one wall of oversized windows offering a view of the bustling nightlife and the breathtaking LBC skyline.Moderately priced drinks are available from two separate bars. The smallest room hosts DJs ranging in style from house to hip-hop. The mid-sized room rocks a cigar lounge selling a nice selection of stogies. Patrons can smoke in the lounge while taking in the game on TV or playing on one of the three pool tables. Guest lists and cover charges vary by night and promoter.

http://www.congregationalehouse.com Congregation, which is part of a mini chain of beer bars with other “chapters” in Azusa and Pasadena, has a church theme; but it’s done with just enough tongue-in-cheekiness it bypasses blasphemy and becomes nothing more than good-natured satire. A “collection plate” next to the register is actually the tip jar. Happy Hours are called “Mass,” with a late-night one called “Midnight Mass.” And flitting about the room in fetishistic Catholic-schoolgirl uniforms with pleated skirts hitched up scandalously far above the knee are servers who’ll offer to top off your soda. But if it’s water you want, you get it yourself at a “Holy Water” station. Religious kidding aside, Congregation is all business everywhere else. It’s downright liturgical in charging only $7 to $8 for the holy trinity of foods that go well with beer: sausage sandwiches, burgers and pizza. This place understands that people who are willing to queue up to order food in a bar like this aren’t interested in anything fancier than what they can hold in their hands or eat with their fingers.
