“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!!“

“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“

“I didn't even know this place existed until a neighbor took me here. Its very spacious it's super clean and it's definitely much better than most neighborhood bars. I actually thought this place was a liquor store in passing. Sally is a great bartender. Very personable and a joy to converse with. There's 3 pool tables and ample room for a crowd.“

“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.“

“Should b called Lakewood’s Best kept secret!! Hahahaa those that kno...then ya kno!!“

“This bar is so much more than a local dive bar. If youre a history nerd, do your best and have a drink here. My partner and i went on a weekend spontaneously. The bartender is the sweetest, and showed us loads of history about the bar. The area that it's in used to be the jail, and if you ask they can show you where the cells have been sealed! I had such a fun time for a few hours chatting with the locals and bartender.“

“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

“We recently found this place when i was looking for a place to karaoke. It is a tiny hole in the wall SUPER fun dive bar. The first time we went there was no open tables but a group of ladies let my husband and I sit at their table with them. The people there are super sweet. The bartenders are all super nice and its really just a fun low key atmosphere. ?“

“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.“

“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.“

“Family and friends & great food & drinks..Enjoy“

“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.“

“🍺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!“

“Awesomeness love this bar“

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

“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.“

“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.“

Would definitely come back and price for drinks was great.“

“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.“

“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.“
