48 Best Cocktail Bars near Signal Hill

“Fun crowed!! Good food!! Good drinks!“

“Good food, friendly staff, good menu with variety. Band was good but way too loud, couldn't talk across the table at all. We'll be back- maybe on a quieter night.“

“My mother and I went here for afternoon tea because it seemed a little more of a cool vibe than a more run-of-the-mill tea place. And we were right! It was a great atmosphere, the service was wonderful, and the food and tea were delicious and interesting. Highly recommend!“

“I swear this place is an absolute must-go! The food is incredible, the atmosphere is clean and stylish, and the service is top-notch. All of our plates came out fresh and full of flavor, and the staff made the experience feel personal and welcoming. Whether you’re grabbing drinks or sitting down for a full meal, this place delivers every time. Highly recommend!“

“I love this place. It's friendly, the bartender is an absolute sweetheart, the KJ is amazing, and they don't over serve and have overly drunk patrons there amd harassing other customers. Karaoke here is a blast and the KJ is very fair with the lineup. This is my new spot to hang after a long week. ❤️❤️❤️“

“It is worth it to come here for the HH (4-7 p.m. Monday to Thursday) and enjoy the beautiful sunset view. If you are visiting (not an overnight guest), there is an additional admission fee to enter the cruise (discounted to $15 at 6 p.m.). The cocktails were exactly what you’d expect at a touristy bar - so I wouldn’t come here for any culinary innovation. But the cruise is worth checking out if you are a fan of the art deco designs.“

“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.“

“Amazing place, great music, great environment. Three pool tables with plenty of space to get a good shot. Local favorite, definitely a place that make memories. Cash only so be ready. Plenty of rooms for parties and tvs all around. And my favorite of all they have A PARKING LOT!! Amazing people love Cindy, amazing times she’ll definitely make you feel at home.“

“🍺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.“

“I performed a Blues concert there this week in their large music hall & library with bar which adjoins a very busy bar room playing old school
recorded R&B. It's a lively and fun place to hang. There's cocktails, beer, music and pool tables. A diverse friendly crowd. They let you Postmate or bring food. There's even an outdoor patio.“

“The Wrigley Tavern is an up and coming venue that promotes jazz music and a very hip vibe!“

“Everything great“

“Love this place. Great atmosphere and friendly people.“

“It's not a bad place. It's a good stop for a cold beer. Especially for me because I am in a Handiman scooter when I am running out of power. They always let me charge up myt scooter while I have a beer. Otherwise I will not make it home. And some days it's not a laughing matter. It's that close of a call. The bartender seems nice. But she is busy with other people. And that is good for business.“

“Lynn and Laurel would not stop talking about Angel’s Share, and the FOMO was real!!! So I grabbed my boyfriend and rushed over to check out their Christmas theme and cocktails. We had a reservation but arrived a little early and asked the hostess if we could just sit at the bar instead. She said no problem at all. We came in around 6:30pm, which might be an odd sweet-spot time, because we were able to snag a couple of bar seats right away! The entire place is fully decked out for the holidays, super cozy, festive, and so cute. They’re currently running a special holiday cocktail menu, so we ordered from that. Rachel was behind the bar and took great care of us despite how busy it was.

I started with a Classic Old Fashioned and followed it up with a Smoked Old Fashioned both great choices. My boyfriend ordered the Old Fashioned and Making Christmas, and I have to say, his drink was actually really good!

Angel’s Share is small and gets very busy, so I highly recommend making a reservation. If you’re planning to eat here, just know the food menu is limited and food can take a while. We had already eaten and came mainly for drinks, but my boyfriend ordered onion rings to snack on. I tried them, but they were falling apart and not really my thing. For me, Angel’s Share is perfect for a festive, post-dinner cocktail or a quick drink with friends but not necessarily a spot I’d choose to dine at. Great atmosphere, fun seasonal cocktails, and definitely worth a visit during the holidays.“

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

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

“I had a memorable evening 🍷 & playing pool with all of the friendly, chill locals that wandered in. Hogged the pool table with a diverse group of male & female challengers.Neighborhood bar for all with the atmosphere y'all gravitate towards...dance, prance & romance if that's what you're after (or not!)
My one beef was wthe bartender at closing. I'm aware of his responsibilities to get us out when everyone's feeling no pain @2 am. Closing....not an easy job!
Perhaps one can attribute his fatigue & impatience trying to get us the hell out that resulted in my perceived rude encounter with El Jefe right at the end of a fun evening. Tone & attitude translate, my friend. Ya gotta be firm but not antagonistic.👹
I tipped 50% for 3 drinks at 11 per.
One would hope that might mollify a prickly attitude. Just take a deep breath next time,Sir, and EVERYONE will benefit...CHEERS!!🤗🤪💮🌟“

“The Exhibition Room is located inside Roxanne's. We often go to Roxx bc they have good food and drinks. The juice is freshly squeezed, which makes a great cocktail!
We always get the beef sliders and the herb fries (can't rmbr what they are called) plus a big pile of nachos.“

“Sun light hours, this is a neighborhood bar with 50% of patrons being regulars. Staff knows everyone, and it's very welcoming. Come at night if you want a good drink and a loud dive bar. Pool table, golden tee, and they just added 2 dart boards. Live music a few nights a week. Cheap prices here don't mean cheap drinks.“

“I don’t know if they serve food, don’t really care because it’s a bar so they have all the things I’m looking for. The bartenders are really nice, it’s a great crowd of people that u can feel at ease with and the drinks are delicious. I like the location because it’s by all business that close early so there’s plenty of parking at night. There’s a Mexican food taco stand on the corner if u get hungry. They have a clean and well lit outside area for smokers. I thought it was a great bar in Long Beach“

“Came here with the boys on a Saturday night of debauchery. Always drive by, never went in. Decided to visit instead of the bikini bar across the street. Very pleased, excellent prices, awesome regulars(from what I could tell). Very chill and welcoming. They had karaoke going which was fun. Cash only though.“

“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.“

“Love to play pool at this spot. Glad to be back and by the sea, this crowd is an excellent crowd to be around and this place flocks in some very interesting people.??The pool tournaments are organized and the drinks are to die for. Mixed to perfection and not to mention are well worth the money. The food is worth the money as well. Compliments to the chef! ?I had a really great time for the hour I was there, and unfortunately had to leave because of work in the morning. ?“

“Pleasantly surprised to have this experience of flavor, ambiance and service. We normally go to Nico’s or Marlena because of its consistency of flavor and location to home. Viaje is the equivalent and then some. The chef is from Mexico City and is the real deal. The food, starting off with the ceviche 9/10, ribeye appetizer 10/10, branzino 10/10 and then the dessert of the tres leches 10/10. Ok, so you don’t quite believe me, well, try 11/10 for the consume broth for the lamb appetizer!! David was our server recommended we just try the broth since we were so full. We were dipping tortilla chips into the broth like little kids it was so good!! It didn’t matter how full be were!

Food all came out timely and together nice and hot. It’s rare to have everything taste that good from start to finish. Price may be an obstacle for most, but doesn’t break the bank like a Michelin Star place. Viaje is one of those restaurants that need to stay on 2nd St…it is the very best on that strip if not all of Long Beach.“

“Great little neighborhood bar. One pool table 2 electronic dart boards and lots of fun people. Go see Renee Friday and Sunday nights she’s the bomb.“

“"Thai District is a culinary gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. The food was absolutely amazing, bursting with authentic Thai flavors that transported us to Thailand. Scott, our server, went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was exceptional. Not only did he provide impeccable service, but he also shared interesting tidbits about the area, like the length of the actual “Long Beach” in Long Beach, adding a delightful personal touch to our evening. We left feeling completely satisfied and already planning our next visit. Five stars all around for Thai District!"“

“Always a good time at Roxanne’s!!“

“I stopped in once on a Sunday afternoon. Good service. Interior is decent, spacious, and has plenty of seating for when the crowd shows up. There a couple TV screens at the bar, which is fine for watching the Dodgers. Bartender is friendly and professional. Clientele was also friendly, laid back, and nice to hang out with.“

“this is hands down the best bar in the region. it’s not even close. i have worked at places with michelin guides, a dozen + james beard awards, and everything in between, so i like to think i know a good bar from an average one. baby gee is the real deal!“

“no food just regular little snacks. If you wanna eat something eat something before you go, but Roberta is an absolute Saint. She may seem kind of direct to you, but she’s very kind and a very wonderful person and a great bar Owner. It’s a really nice cool chill atmosphere to be out. There is one of my favorite places to be at without stupid people being around. Roberta makes it happen.“

“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!!“

“Great local bar, drinks are affordable service is friendly and tvs have local sports. Perfect day care for Dad’s. Ladies leave your husbands in good hands!“

“Personable little hole in the wall bar! Drinks were cheap and service was great!“

“Everything about Olive and Rose is thoughtful, well designed, and delicious. My new favorite cocktail is their Pear Pressure. Service is top notch. I appreciate that they always have at least a couple amazing vegetable based dishes on the menu. I seriously wish I could afford to eat here more often-to be clear, the food and drinks are well worth the cost.“

“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“

“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!!!“

“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!!“

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

“It’s cool to drink cold beer and mingle with locals“

“Awesome cocktails 🍹 and super friendly staff“

“great place! top to bottom“

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

“Lunch (Brunch) Saturday June 8 Been reading many glowing reviews ..R they deserved ? If all dishes as flavorful as the Lamb” Secco” Then YES Not cheap , but If I am spending $40-50 person ,the food had Better taste like this. Also good: basic Margherita Pizza. Beer list is thoughtful. Wife REALLY enjoyed her Anderson Valley Rose wine with the Lamb dish Bottom line: this cafe is worth supporting. Thanks for setting up shop in Coastal Long Beach- Naples“

“My husband and I went to Patty's Place for our anniversary. We were thinking it was just your basic steak house. We were wrong. Nothing about Patty's is basic.I was shocked when we walked in. It has just enough elegance to enhance a cozy, and comfortable experience. The service was excellent and very friendly. Needless to say, the food was magnificent. I've never had side dishes be as delicious as the main meal. The potatoes and veggies were out of this world. ~ I can honestly say, " it was the best food I've ever eaten." This restaurant gets a 10 in my book.“
