From 9-11:30 most Monday nights, come to this small bar to see the miracle of the Hot Club of Los Angeles, an amazing 5 piece embodiment of Django Reinhart's 1930s jazz spirit. Their second set may start around 10:45 if you'd like a bit more room. No snacks, no food, no nonsense...just as good a band as you'll ever see in a space this small. Tommy will take care of you behind the bar. Guinness can, served in a glass, $10 in June 2026. Enjoy!
Chill little bar . I went in early so it was completely empty. Drank a beer played some Johnny Cash on the jukebox and I was on my way. No beers on on draft , all bottles. Small stage for bands to perform. Cool decor and im preety sure it gets better on the weekends
Great dive right off the freeway.

The Cinema Bar is a hidden gem, a late 70's-80's style "dive bar" with a great atmosphere. The bartenders provide excellent hospitality and attentive service. The music is loud and good, and the prices are great. This eclectic spot is a hub for aspiring artists, offering a stage for them to perform. It’s got that old-school charm you can’t fake, with laid-back vibes, strong drinks, and live music that slaps. Whether catching a band, hanging on the patio, or sipping a whiskey solo, this place always hits the right note. The crowd feels like instant friends, and there’s no pretension—just good times.
Located in Culver City, it’s a perfect dive bar with a friendly bartender who doubles as a bouncer and sound guy. The bar and stage are set up so you can enjoy the show without dealing with the bar crowd. There’s also a back patio, and parking is easy along Sepulveda. With a nice selection of spirits and beers at reasonable prices, it’s a West LA gem worth visiting.
