50 Best Bars near South Gate

“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.“

“Drinks are good and vibes are good. Gets packed on Fridays and Saturdays but still is a good bar for the area. Tee is a great bartender, very friendly and she makes good drinks and nice to talk to. The one thing I don’t like about this bar is that despite its cool heavy metal, goth Game of Thrones-esque design, there is not enough heavy metal playing. Still, pretty cool bar but please play more metal or at least classic Rock.“

“I don't normally post ..but I love this spot. Anyone upset about it only being a beer joint isn't someone that should be commenting on bars anyways. The owner and the bar tenders are always welcoming. The music is great if you love Spanish music.Always a good time when you have a few cold beers and great people around.“

“The beer and food pairing experience at this bar was a delightful journey for the taste buds. The staff took the time to recommend beer and food combinations that perfectly complemented each other. While the quality of both the beers and food was excellent, the pricing was a bit on the higher side. However, the overall experience, combined with the attentive service, made it well worth the cost. If you're looking for a unique culinary adventure with a variety of brews, this place is definitely worth a visit.“

“My favorite place to hang in LA. The staff is super sweet, the food is fantastic, the drinks are amazing, particularly the Ginger Margarita, the atmosphere is gorgeous—whether you’re inside the stunning deco bar or outside on the beautiful patio. It’s a true gem.“

“An absolute must-visit in Downtown LA for cocktail lovers. 🍸✨

I have obsessively been coming to The Wolves whenever I’m in LA, and it never disappoints. The Agua Buena is hands-down the best cocktail I’ve ever had in my life.

Their other cocktails are just as impressive… my friends always order different ones, and every drink has such unique, inventive flavor profiles that just work. The small bites are delicious too.

Friendly staff and the setting… don’t even get me started! It’s stunning, atmospheric, and makes the whole experience feel extra special.“

“Great beer, great outdoor vibe with music on the weekend.“

“I was having such a grand old time at La Fe that I wanted to take a picture of my experience. I set my phone on a ledge, but my phone fell through a crack. La Fe’s STAR employee, Caleb, had to dismantle the freakin’ couch using power tools in order to retrieve my phone. It took so much work and time and I’m so grateful. Aside from the superb service, La Fe is such a perfect spot for a date or for chilling with friends because of the stylish and hip decor. I would def recommend!“

“I've been there once and it was fine last time. The cocktails were quick and the atmosphere was good. Overall, it was pretty good“

“Such a vibe! Had an amazing experience. Highly recommend.“

“This is totally a hidden gem. Im glad I came across and finally got to enjoy. The vibe here was fantastic. Its a dark mellow fun atmosphere. Perfect for drinks and chatting. The staff was so friendly . One of the reason why this is such a great place to be able to still socialize while there music and other people is cus the surround system is vintage and was personalized to be played up high over everything which makes the place more comfortable. The food was marvelous wasn't expecting a Mediterranean twist but definitely loving it gave the food a special kick to the flavors . The combination of the spices and texture made the food amazing. I tried the steak and fries 10/10 and the shrimp roll be cause I love shrimp. And I loved them both . Personally I like dillso I was ok with the shrimp roll but for my ppl that dont like to try new thing I would recommend to stay away. The drinks were delicious. I had mexican can shots and Jennifer gray . Both I highly recommend. Also a mango cart cocktail but which was delicious also but it has a habanero taste to it thats not my favorite. But still enjoyed it. Something else I learned was the mixers are made natural from all the spices or fruits . Naturally extracted with also give the drinks that extra flavor. More natural and not processes. This is definitely a place to come and enjoy with friends. There was actually a birthday being celebrated and they show movies on a roll down projector this is event worthy for people looking to host an event here.“

“LA local gem. Every neighborhood needs a place like this. Amazing vibes, value, and customer service. Great drink program, focused menu with great options, outdoor patio, and great loft space for music. The Happy-Hour is right from the menu with great combinations VS yesterday's leftovers they are trying to offload. Worth the drive, and if you’re a local…take more advantage!“

“Amazing food. Plate licking sauces, organic,locally sourced food. Korean fusion. Did I mention organic pickled everything. Enzyme rich food. Beyond healthy. Humble little hope in the wall run by a husband and wife team. Dude went to Korea to study with the most famous vegan nun chef in Korea. A must go to for anyone who loves food and especially loves fusion with organic and very well priced. He should charge Much more but they don’t.“

“Beautiful bar. Modern with a home feel. The ambiance is very chill. Large and wide open window on one side gives you a good view of Sunset Blvd. opposite is the patio that has the food. You can order via a QR code and get a text when your food is ready. Drink menu is great! Bartenders are friendly.“

“We had Uber drop us off before a concert so we could eat/drink and walk to Dodger stadium. This place was so much cooler than we could have imagined.
Punk rock blasting over the speakers. 👨🏼‍🎤
Dodgers baseball on TV. 🏟️
Really cool memorabilia on the walls. ⚾
Amazing food. 🍔
Delicious beer. 🍺
We had the Caesar Wrap, Bird Bites and Old Bay Tots 🤤
Needless to say I ate too much and felt like a giant slug at the concert.
The place isn't real big so prepare yourself to squeeze in, maybe share a table and have a blast!“

“Visited LA and was invited to this bar from some friends I made at the Precinct! Instantly loved the vibes as I walked in. Has a punk-rock vibe with some retro themes throughout and colored lighting. Tried the dirty martini and it was made to perfection for an LA night out drink!“

“A great place to be in Los Angeles‼️“

“Drink menu at the bar was decent. Wish the receipt would of been shown when they charge you at the bar. Since the drinks plus tax in my head didn’t add up. So would of been nice to know if they include a service fee to their checks. It’s a great spot in the community. Food looked great. Defiantly made me want to check it out again. Great place for an event or private event since there were so many open spaces.“

“Had a great experience here. The service was great, someone was over at our table cooking our food frequently. We had unlimited Kbbq, access to the buffet, and sides. The premium option was worth the money. They also have a great selection of cocktails. Definitely recommend.“

“😁wonderful place!! lots of fun“

“Neighborhood gem. Can't express the amount of attention the wait staff and owners gave me. The restaurant was a bit busy but everyone received individual attention as though no one else was around. The food is amazing and fresh and the bartender is now one of my favorite people in LA. She made my custom drink to perfection on her very 1st try. This will be my go hangout when I visit my Dad from now on.“

“Best bar in Hi Fi Perhaps the world.“

“Visited Sincerely Yours on Friday night with a few friends and had a great time! The atmosphere was grown and sexy, the doorman and staff were amazing, and I really appreciated the clean bathrooms. The music was on point, and the flow in and out of the bar was smooth. Highly recommend—definitely coming back soon!“

“If you're in Los Angeles and happen to wonder over on the East Side, this is the place to stop by. Food and drinks are always served with hospitality and love. Environment is friendly with TV for any sports game. And the music is always bumping.“

“Favorite place to hang out when visiting LA. The vegan food menu is amazing and on par with their selection of craft beers. The staff is exceptionally friendly. Always feel at home and comfortable when I am there.“

“Was awesome to find a restaurant with my two favorites…GF and Southern!“

“Does anyone know who the band was that played on 7/12? Had like, the best trumpet player I’ve ever heard.... they were flat out epic. This place in general is low key amazing“

“Wonderful barstaff . Lovely place to chill and sup a few G&T’s“

“First time here my family like it especially unlimited brisket“

“This place is narrow but an absolute gem of a place for live fairly intimate music performances. The sound system is great, the service even better, and the crowd very fun. It's also incredibly convenient to get to via train from Union Station so you really kinda have zero excuse if you get a DUI.

Not sure how the table situation works but I'm assuming you have to get there early to score one or at the bar. Otherwise it's standing room only with a few loose stools toward the rear atrium section.

The only true but minor inconvenience is the having to swipe/pay for every drink purchase. I get the why but the service and drink options make up for it.“

“pinball and atmosphere. if your friends even want to judge then they aren't your friends 😆#puropari“

“The owner was super accommodating for our event, the food and drinks were great and the atmosphere was fun and lively!“

“Nice place ro drink and have fun“

“Tasty bbq take out outside. Amazing desserts to ans friendly staff“

“Stopped in on a Tuesday night to grab dinner with some friends and now I can see why this place is always busy!

We ordered pad see ew with chicken, chicken satay, papaya salad and Tom yum with shrimp. Everything was delicious and family style was the perfect way to go. Everything was flavorful from the tom yum broth to the satay peanut sauce.

Service was impeccable! We were able to get in without a reservation and there was virtually no wait time for a party of four. The server made sure we got our beer orders in on time before the happy hour ended and was very attentive to our needs, ensuring everything was to our satisfaction.

We will definitely be back for our monthly dinners !“

“We recently hosted our first cocktail party in LA, and Dave from Prank was an absolute angel! He supported us from start to finish, offering thoughtful suggestions on how to make the event even more unique and special. I had SO many questions, and both he and his team addressed every single one with patience, care, and attention to detail.

It’s clear that Dave was born to host events. That level of guidance makes all the difference when you’re navigating nerves and logistics: It’s exactly what you want in a venue partner.

Prank was an excellent choice for our event. The location is fantastic, the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, and the drinks and food were outstanding. The space worked perfectly for hosting, it always felt lively and full, and the team made the experience seamless.

Thank you so much. We will absolutely recommend Prank and keep it on our radar for future events in LA!!“

“Fun Karaoke with a cash only bar, great drinks -friendly bartenders.“

“This place is a gem in the hood! Guillermo, the owner, is an amazing advocate for our community and visionary for local businesses, often encouraging events that uplift undeserved families and individuals.
Guillermo is also a champion of our communities strength which he highlights with arts, food tastings, and events at Distrito. Truly, what a wonderful space! Check them out.“

“I want to thank Donegan for his fantastic help in finding a commercial property for lease. He is a true professional and a genuinely great person to work with. His expertise made the process easy and enjoyable. I highly recommend Donegan to anyone looking for commercial real estate. Thanks again, Donegan!“

“Come drink here and enjoy yourself“

“This post is not about the food because without a doubt this place is great. Today I will say i came in and me and a group of coworkers were all having a great time, food and drinks were amazing but I cannot get over one gentleman's attitude tonight. Didn't catch his name tan fellow with a curly top. I understand if you guys are busy but he was very rude to one of our older coworkers. Uncalled for but like I said food was great. Haha wings were hittin too 🫶🔥🔥“

“JR I good plce to duck into for refresher is the riots continue. Saved out coats this past weekend.“

“I was comparing several companies for a charcuterie board for a Christmas dinner and decided on Marvelous Creations - and it was the perfect choice. The service was excellent, and the board was beautifully crafted. The cheeses and meats were fresh and delicious, and delivery was seamless and right on time. My guests absolutely loved it! I highly recommend Marvelous Creations for anyone looking for a stunning and delicious charcuterie board for any gathering.“
