Dive Bars near Downey

“Fun, Great drinks, friendly bartenders, and Friday Night Karaoke!“

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting this fantastic establishment and I must say, they have the coldest beer in town! The service here is top-notch, with friendly staff who go above and beyond to ensure you have a wonderful experience. Not only that, but the drink prices are incredibly reasonable, making it even more enjoyable, "Try the Paloma". The atmosphere is clean and inviting, creating the perfect setting to sit back, relax, and enjoy your favorite beverage. There is plenty of parking available, making it hassle-free to visit. I highly recommend this spot to anyone in search of a refreshing, delightful time. Tell them Jammer sent you.“

“The Anarchy Library has been on my list for a long time. It's one of those places that everyone says you should check out. I finally had a chance to go this past Friday. It was so much fun! The DJ played '80s, darkwave, new wave, rock en Español, and 2000s indie hits like "Deceptacon" by Le Tigre and "12:51" by The Strokes. Solid playlist. There is a $5 cash cover on Fridays and Saturdays. Bring cash! Import beers like Stella and Modelo are $6. Anarchy Library has a dive bar feel which I loved. I didn't think it was "dirty," I thought it was unique. It reminds me of the rocker divey bars in Austin, TX. Lots of rock and punk posters on the walls. The dancefloor is small, but it worked. The crowd was really vibing with each other. I would say the age range was about 21-45 or so. You won't feel too old or too young coming here which is amazing. That is a big reason for the 5 stars. This is one of the best crowds I've danced with in a long time. Even though we were strangers, we felt a connection with each other. That's good stuff. Dancing in the post "me too" movement hits different. None of the guys were aggressive or trying to hit on us. I felt they read the room and didn't try to talk to us unless we talked to them first. I could just enjoy catching up with my girlfriends without being bothered. I will be coming back often. I had a great time here!“

“Fun Karaoke with a cash only bar, great drinks -friendly bartenders.“

“Haven't been to Gold Room in years, better than I remember it. Small dive bar off Sunset. Bartender Tony was friendly, attentive and quick to take our drink order. His cocktails were very very well made. He takes his time and you can tell enjoys the craft. Tried the Double Trouble and Pineapple Express. Double Trouble is absolutely delicious - 10/10. Pineapple Express was just as good, but def loaded (has mezcal & tequila). It'll have you feeling good real quick. Drink prices are reasonable priced for LA. Same for their daily happy hour menu. Very solid beer menu too. They have a jukebox you can pay to control the music which is kinda cool. Get to hear a variety of music genres cause of it. Solid bar for a quick beer or cocktail.“

“Great place for a good time“

“Love this place. Its very cute and the energy is always super welcoming. I have been here many time with friends, and I actually brought my mom here for her birthday and our favorite bartender Ricardo made us all his special drinks. Highly reccommend!“

“I had good time Friday night with with family I kept a smile on my face all night and mingled with friendly people. I love being around an older crowd people enjoying their self that’s what it supposed to be about Black people coming together having fun without fighting all the time. Peace one love.“

“I go here every now and then to meet with co workers and I don't know the bartender's name but it was on 5/16. I left my wallet and I was able to retrieve it the following day with everything in tact. Not to mention drinks come by quick also :)“

“Cheapest drinks in town. Bartenders have been there for many years. They pour their drinks strong. Yeah it's a dive bar. But with pool tables, dart boards 3 big TVs and a jukebox. It has all the amenities of any other bar except the trendy yuppies and complainers, because they're too cool for a dive bar. It has good drinks. Good people. And good times. Take a trip to the gold brick and you'll be sad you hadn't tried this bar sooner. It has a very cheers kind of vibe.“
