32 Best Cocktail Bars in Long Beach

“WOWWWWW THIS IS THE TASTIEST STEEZIEST SWEETEST BAR IVE EVER BEEN TO. Most unique drinks. Vibes immaculate. Service impeccable. Will be back regularly. Baby for dayssssss

Vegetarian options: Focaccia with naughty tomatoes is sultry and irresistible“

“I have to admit, I wasn’t expecting the food to be this exceptional. And that is because sometimes chain establishments are not great. However, Camille suggested a couple of dishes for us and they did not disappoint and in fact I would’ve licked the plates if it was publicly appropriate. I highly recommend the biscuits and gravy and short rib hash!!!!! Omg so delicious!! I can’t wait to come back for more!!!“

“Overall it was good , female bartender very nice Taller gentlemen very nice JT, most everyone , very nice welcoming , bareback or guy behind bar gave off a uncomfortable vibe , his facial expressions told the story , if he treated any of my customers like that I would fire him , I didn't eat since my appetite was destroyed by guys horrible vibe , he was very nice to 2 women giving them drinks but when 1 of them offered me her shot , the look on the bartender guy was angry , my 1st time there so his actions where for nothing NOT GOOD SPOT I WOULDNT GO BACK“

“Great service. Decor was chic. Service on point, not rushed. Great place for a date.“

“This place is a great place to hang out and watch a jazz trio on thursdays. The bar looks out on the bay and long beach. you can step outside to the observation deck of the ship. It is very art deco, lots of wood, a big ballroom dance scene is painted above the bar. Service is slow when it gets busy though, the bar is small and the servers have to use the same bar as everyone else. The drinks are mixed well though. Great atmosphere! You want to reserve a ticket on the website in advance even though they are usually free.“

“The bartenders are super friendly!!! such a fun place.“

“We had a 40th college reunion there. The ambience was perfect, food was great and the staff were wonderful! Everyone had a great time!“

“First time here and had a delicious breakfast with family. I went with the omelete casserole because it's not something I've seen before in a menu. I added ground sausage and it was delightful. The burrito my brother had looked good and it was huge! This is going on my saved list to return to. A bit pricier than other spots but not by much. Service was ok, waited for water refills and they forgot the dressing to my wife's salad.“

“What a nice place with such a special atmosphere. Unfortunately I didn’t catch our server name, but he had the most relaxed and calm attitude which we really appreciated. The food was great, we especially enjoyed the cod. Would absolutely come back again!“

“We love Marlena and try to support it every chance we get! Everything - from the ambiance to the service to the food - is such a treat. We could not love the cheesecake and gelato more (oh man, the salted caramel flavor just slayed us). I also had the best duck of my life there a while back (please bring back the duck!). We also love all the salads and options for enjoying plants/veggies along with high quality proteins. Also great wine and cocktails. Just such a gem that is sorely needed in LB! I still need to try their coffee but hoping for a gluten free pastry / breakfast option (I would def eat the cheesecake for breakfast - just saying!).

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options!“

“very good service and the foods are good😍“

“Dined here this evening. We enjoyed some Cocktails to start then ordered Beef Tartare, Shrimp with Veg and Roasted Carrots. Entrees varied from Pasta to Ribeye steak and Burger. All delicious. The Carbonara needed more bacon but that was the only issue. Desserts were great. The Espresso wasn’t hot enough for my guest but overall we enjoyed the evening celebrating a birthday. Will recommend to my friends for sure. Would recommend a reservation as it was very busy by the time we left at 6.30 pm“

“Great atmosphere amazing staff! Food is so good! I’ll recommend the Musubi great place to chill with a large group of friends!!!“

“A hidden gem for the poetically inclined. I was among poetic legends last week. Caught a great performance and got to see some fellow spoken word artists. This place is the spot if you wanna get a drink alone or with a friend. Come check out some poetry or get a drink. You wont regret it.“

“Wow! This is a hidden gem! Had a few hours until our flight out of Long Beach. Found this amazing spot for a coffee and was absolutely blown away by the owner(Shannon) and the menu! We ordered 2 coffees a sandwich and a cinnamon roll. The coffees were amazing, the owner made me a custom coffee. I asked for 'Something Sweet' and the drink was so good we ordered a 2nd one. Cinnamon roll was hot, sweet, and cream cheese frosted. Licked the bowl clean! Breakfast Sandwich was made with fresh ingredients and was so tasty! We will plan our future trips to this Airport just to have this coffee and cinnamon roll again! 10/10! Oh and the reggae music jamming is the vibe!!“

“On an unpredicted rainy Wednesday night found myself in the cozy Wrigley Tavern. A locals hangout with the ambiance of the type of joint my dad might have frequented. Great service and a good selection of spirits and beer. The flatbread I tried, well, maybe not next time. I’ll come back on a weekend night for certain.“

“Amazing bar, Jose was very nice; an amazing and attentive bartender. He made us feel very welcomed and made sure everything was on point!

The place is very cozy with a nice terrace where you can smoke while having your drink. I had a great time!

A place I would highly recommend.“

“🍺Not only everything you could ask for in a bar from Great staff and one if not the best bar owner to excellent Security you'll find, But the best bartenders in all of Long Beach. It might look like your average bar but nowhere else will you find the creative drinks that you'll find here on to the free pool on Monday's and the verity of different DJ's spinning everything from old school to Jazz to Goth to Punk rock on to Heavy Metal and more. Each weekend is a different vibe. You're just going to have to come on in and check it out.“

“My buddies and I stumbled upon this little bar by chance. We were the only “gringos” there, but we were welcomed as if by old friends. They women who tended bar and served us were gracious hosts. It was very clean and well appointed. We had a blast, bought a shirt, and would recommend to others looking for a cold cerveza.“

“Fabulous Restaurant and Lounge truly lives up to its name! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with affordable drinks, cute decor, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The owner herself is incredibly humble and even took the time to serve us personally, which added a nice touch to our experience. She also invited us to a private event they were hosting the following weekend—how cool is that?

I had heard good things about this place, but I was still blown away by the quality of the food and drinks. We tried three appetizers, an entrée, and four cocktails, and every single one was not just delicious but also creatively crafted and unique. The flavors were impressive, and it's clear that a lot of thought goes into the menu.

I’m definitely looking forward to coming back and trying their hookah, which I’ve heard great things about. If you’re in the area, this is a spot you don’t want to miss. And after a night out at Fabulous, I love to wind down with some quality products from Pullupdeliveries. Their strains is the perfect way to end a great evening. Highly recommend both for an unforgettable experience!“

“Dirty bathrooms is the only negative thing I can say! DJ was great!!AMAZING! I didn't order food but I danced all night! Drinks strong and tasty!!! Visiting city to take a cruise . This was the pre party spot!!Had a blast!!! Safe and decent crowd.

Parking: We lucked up and found parking on street. I think there may have been valet or parking lot...but I'm not 100% sure.“

“I both love and loathe gentrification. In the case of this bar, I loathe gentrification, if only for the increased prices in drinks. Staff is great. However, the bar fights used to be entertaining, but those don't happen anymore. That's a bit depressing.“

“Great new management! Good priced stiff drinks and great service!!! I’ll be there once I find more days off!!! Thank you George for turning this place around and all your hard work!!“

“Awesome cocktails 🍹 and super friendly staff“

“Great venue to see British Steal on their monthly appearance heavy metal foundry“

“Nice little whole in the wall bar. The bartender was nice and served good drinks. There wasn't any food to eat, which was a little disappointing but not a deterrent from getting drinks there. The jukebox is a little spendy but whatcha gonna do?“

“great place! top to bottom“

“Always a good time at Roxanne’s!!“

“I absolutely Love Love LB Unified Bar & Lounge. If your looking for an amazing time with great music, great people, delicious food - a place to meet and network with entrepreneurs, business owners and the like- this is the place to be!!! The owner Chuckie Miller knows how to make sure everyone has the Best time!! Drinks/ Sports/ Music/ Conversation!!“

“3636 club is the best place in Long Beach! Amanda Hernandez and misty and the crew are the best. This is hometown bar with all you friends“

“We came to this spot earlier in the day and it was completely empty. The atmosphere is very quaint and welcoming. The lady at the bar was friendly. The pool tables are in pretty good condition, although some of the cues are a little broken. Overall, we had a very good experience at this spot.“

“This is a great karaoke bar, fun vibe, cute bartender!“
