50 Best Cocktail Bars near West Covina

“Myself and 4 family members rolled up around 9:30pm or so on a thirsty Thursday looking for a drink before calling it a night. Place was packed and there were only two or three seats available at the bar. Bartender said there were a couple of tables out in front of the bar she could bring our drinks to, but before we knew it, either staff or regulars or both had cleared five seats together at the bar for us. Drinks were solid, service was great and the vibe was what my wife and I enjoy. We were visiting family in the area and it was great to find this place only two miles from our family's place. We will definitely be back!“

“Breakfast burritos were amazing!“

“Bartenders are super cool. Karaoke is the best. I just watch but its enjoyable and the D.J. is the coolest. The vibe reflects everything beautiful about Los Angeles, cool people from all backgrounds enjoying themselves and being chill. <3“

“Fun bar. Great drinks and great prices. I read comments that some people think it’s a racist bar, believe me, it isn’t. All are welcome. No predujices here.“

“i Love my beautiful bartender Brittneey. 🤩 excellent service and drinks“

“Great atmosphere, great staff“

“I have been frequenting hotel Le’Meridian that has Longitude 118 bar lately. I specifically want to give a shout out to Erik who works the [early] a.m. shift at Longitude 118. He is always accommodating and VERY customer-friendly! I enjoy our conversations when I’m sitting at the bar. He always has a smile on his face and he’s very down to earth. I feel like he is a great asset to the company! There are others in separate reviews that I would name specifically as well, but in this one I want to especially highlight Erik! He truly goes above and beyond! @Longitude118 #Logitude118Ar Asia“

“This is the spot if you need a good, cold drink & a chill, old school vibe. I don’t like bars that have windows & Poor Denny’s is old school in that regard. Ever since Ember’s Lounge closed down, this has been my spot. It’s cash only, but there’s a ATM machine there. I love the digital jukebox that allows you to play all kinds of music. The bartenders are always nice & they have wonderful hands on the pours. ? Good vibes & mellow times here.“

“My favorite bartender works there, Christine Bockting!!!“

“If you want a local feel. A dive BUT clean and functional and well run bar. Milo's is your spot. I'm new. Been here half a dozen times . Consistent. Courteous. Clean. Familiar. Friendly. Local. I'm in love. Change nothing. Please keep doing what you're doing. Thank you Milo's“

“Good enough for Richard Pryor, good enough for me!“

“Went for Sunday brunch had their Taqitios and margaritas delicious. Server was a little over welmed when the place started getting busy it took about 30 minutes to get our check. But excellent place will definitely be back! Want to try their Enchiladas 😁“

“Thank you staff, this was our first time here. Hostess friendly, bar staff she was also friendly and made the best mock cocktails. Our server very professional and kind. The food was great. BBQ was so juicy, tender fall off the bone. Even the chicken fell off the bone. Great BBQ sauce nothing was over powering just great flavor. Thank you to the cooks who we dont see for your BBQ skills. 🫡😋“

“Bill and I loved that bar...it's like home.“

“Went on a Thursday for date night with the wife. Live music was great. The restaurant was slow but we had a reservation. The service was very slow although they were not busy. Food was tasty but pricey for what you get. We had the Caesar salad to start, Mongolian beef (good but not a large portion of beef with lots of rice for $32), shrimp tacos were on the smallest street taco tortillas I have seen. Drinks and desert were good. Cool vibe and atmosphere.“

“Wow! I called today, Sunday, last minute for a party of 12. We were accommodated and seated within 30 minutes. Rashad the manager was our waiter. He was kind, personable, accommodating, just amazing. The staff that assisted Rashad also very nice. The food was outstanding. My party could not pick a favorite. However, we reordered the fried rice and Wagu Dumplings. You cannot go wrong with any item on the menu. The atmosphere is beautiful and intimate. Always a good time and great vibes. The owner is consistently pleasant and gracious. Highly recommend! Check out Nyx as well.“

“Great food! I always get a mushroom taco there - they have great! mushrooms!!“

“food is amazing and staff is top-notch“

“👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“If you crave Italian food with a slight California twist, look no further. The carrots were our favorite appetizer, slightly spicy and extremely flavorful with the tahini, tajin and pine nuts. The pistachio pesto rigatoni was also a standout. If you are comfortable paying slighly more for higher quality food you wont be disappointed. My wife and I will certainly be visiting again.“

“I love this place. Lively Atmosphere.“

“Such a fun spot for good Korean food! We ordered the large boneless chicken wings. You get to try 2 flavors, so we got Korean spicy (mild) and soy garlic. We also got a regular order of the boneless Korean bbq wings. The Korean bbq flavor was our favorite! Definitely want to come back and try more flavors!“

“This is an incredible place to grab tacos! We went here on taco Tuesday night and sampled a lot of different tacos throughout the evening. Great drinks and food! But what really stood out was the awesome service. There weren’t a lot of people working there, but all of them were hustling and making sure you are well taken care of. This is a great place to grab delicious tacos and drinks!“

“We had a variety of dishes: orange chicken, lemon chicken, garlic shrimp, kung pao chicken, lo mein, egg fried rice. All items were delicious and authentic. I grew up in Diamond Bar and have always enjoyed this establishment. After visiting China last year, I’ve found myself craving authentic Chinese cuisine more often and this always satisfies the craving! My kids are picky eaters and they like it too. We’ll be back soon!“

“Located in a vibrant neighborhood, Oyster Dive Bar offers a delightful dining experience with a unique twist on seafood classics. The crispy Cajun fries with cheese are a standout appetizer, perfectly seasoned and crunchy, making them an irresistible starter. The lobster pasta features fresh lobster, expertly prepared and bursting with flavor, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to quality ingredients. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, ideal for both casual outings and intimate dinners. The service is attentive and friendly, adding to the overall enjoyable atmosphere. Prices are reasonable given the quality and portion sizes. However, it's worth noting that the restroom could use more attention; cleanliness was a bit lacking during my visit. Despite this minor drawback, the delicious food and pleasant surroundings make Oyster Dive Bar a recommended choice for seafood enthusiasts looking to enjoy a satisfying meal in a relaxed setting. Overall, Oyster Dive Bar earns four stars for its tasty dishes, friendly service, and comfortable ambiance. With a few improvements in cleanliness, it could easily become a five-star dining destination.“

“Best food I've had around the area. workers super friendly. Highly recommend 💖“

“Wings, Spin fries, flat pizza ,nachos and drinks never a dull moment 😊“

“We tried this little bar while we were visiting friends in the Uptown Whittier area. It's an eclectic little cocktail lounge with speakeasy vibes. We loved the decor and the ambience was great with dimmed soft red lights that made the place very relaxing. They had happy hour going on and we tried the queso con chorizo dip. It came really hot so it was watery and when we tried it, it was oily and mushy. However, once it cooled, the dish was solidified and the flavors really merged and popped- the oaxaca cheese, poblano peppers, and chorizo really blended together into a delicious dish. I highly recommend you try it! They have specialty drinks but carry a full bar and can make many other drinks. I really enjoyed their specialty drinks although they were very small. We spent about an hour there, then headed to dinner with friends. The staff was great and attentive. They were very nice and really explained their menu. It was a cute little place that were definitely visiting again when we're in town.“

“I recently had the opportunity to visit The Hideout bar, and I must say, it was quite an experience. The bar had a unique vibe and atmosphere that immediately caught my attention.

Upon entering, I couldn't help but notice the Halloween decorations that adorned the bar. It added a festive touch and created a fun and lively ambiance. The combination of the decorations and the overall atmosphere made me feel excited and ready to enjoy the evening.

One aspect that stood out was the presence of beautiful women serving drinks in bikinis. While this may be a unique feature of The Hideout, it's important to note that the attractiveness of the staff should not be the sole focus when evaluating a bar. However, it did add an element of visual appeal and contributed to the overall atmosphere.

The bar itself had various entertainment options, including darts and pool tables. These activities provided a great way to engage with friends and enjoy some friendly competition. The availability of these games added to the overall enjoyment of the evening.

What I appreciated most about The Hideout was the good feeling vibe that permeated the entire establishment. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring that everyone felt welcome and had a great time. The combination of the Halloween decorations, entertainment options, and friendly staff created an inviting and enjoyable atmosphere.

While it's important to acknowledge the unique aspects of a bar, such as the presence of beautiful women in bikinis, it's equally important to focus on the overall experience and atmosphere. The Hideout bar provided a fun and entertaining evening, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a lively and enjoyable night out.“

“I had only been here for a quick drink and I must say it's a hidden gem.... The drinks and ambiance were amazing!!! I had to come back for brunch with my girls and we were not disappointed. From our waiter Alec to the food and drinks....AMAZING!!! It's a must try. I will definitely come back to try their dinner.“

“Okay, this is a new spot for my friends and I. Great place for a beer and some good food. I had the shrimp cocktail. The flavor is great! And had their Michelada! Delicious. Definitely going back! Great customer service 👏🏾“

“Every year after the Glendora All Class Reunion Picnic in October, members of the graduating class of 1969 aim to meet up for a more intimate visit at Club House 66. We started it the weekend of our 50th High School Reunion with dinner the night before our formal gala. We had our 70th birthday on the beautiful patio there 2 years later with a wonderful buffet dinner. We no longer have a committee planned reunion but we have committed to trying to make the Annual All Class Picnic and then having a no host gathering on the Club House 66 patio. This year there were 14 of us,74 year old, coming by after a day at Finkbiner Park to have drinks and dinner on a warm Indian Summer night to reminisce with childhood friends. Our server was Ruth and she was delightful and her team made us feel like royalty. They set up the table to greet the group and kept the drinks flowing , the water glasses full and brought us delicious food as we ordered it thoughout the night. Ruth made sure we each had our own bill. We didn’t even have to ask. We interacted with the other friendly families out on the patio and we all felt like we had come “home”. It was the perfect ending to a great day spent laughing about childhood memories and our journeys into adulthood. We will be back next year and plan to celebrate our Class of 1969’s 75th Birthday right there on that picturesque patio. Thank you Clubhouse 66, Ruth and the whole team who made us feel so special. ♥️“

“Great food service, drinks from the bar are awesome, Dj plays up to date popular music, staff is genuinely friendly, security guards in yellow within the establishment are professional making it feel safe. One of the best bars in down town on friday or Saturday, go see for yourself...“
