About Ercole's

Ercole's is a bar located in Manhattan Beach, just off the main street. It is described as a super fun dive bar and a locals hangout. The atmosphere is great, with a stylish but laid-back vibe. The staff is super friendly and the bartenders know their craft. The cocktails are killer, fresh, creative, and perfectly balanced. There is also a nice selection of beers on tap and by the bottle. The food is good, with a burger menu that is fairly simple. One or more patties, cheese or without, and a hot dog burger are offered. There are no fries, just chips as a side. The prices are chill and stiff drinks are at a good price. Customers can watch sports, play pool, or hang out with friends. The bar is just steps away from the ocean with a relaxed beach vibe, making it perfect for sunset drinks. It is a must-visit spot for Manhattan Beach nightlife.

Was told by a friend “total dive bar, but the experience is 80% why we go”. I have to say, he wasn’t wrong! The “dive bar” is like a second home to me as it’s kind of where we just grew up as kids. As places begin to modernize, the dive bar aspect slowly slips away.

Came here for some quick dinner and wasn’t disappointed. It was insanely busy!! The biggest downside during the busy time was the wait. Wait for drinks, wait for food…...read full review

Best cheeseburger I’ve ever had. Full stop. I love myself a good dive bar and this place checks all the boxes. Great beer selection. Amazing food. Bartender was a friendly guy too. I’ll be back on my next trip to LA.
