The Top 5 Gay Bars in Los Angeles

Akbar

The lounge in retro-style Akbar has become the ultimate gay alternate fashionable gathering spot for Silver Lake. As such, the crowd appears to be on the younger side, pulling trendy pockets like Echo Park, Downtown, and Elysian Fields from LA’s burgeoning pocks. In the front bar, party all night, or go towards the back for improv, queer culture evenings, open mics, dance parties, and more.

The Abbey

This one isn't your typical choice for gay nightlife. Mostly off the beaten track and just beyond the club-heavy circle of WeHo, this long-standing Pasadena crack in the fence is beloved by new and old residents, from yuppies to silver foxes. The Boulevard is offering karaoke, a game room, drag shows, and the holy grail of a bar patron: a big pour at an affordable rate. The place may not be the craziest of bars, but it's great for an enjoyable night where you can meet new people and hang out with old ones. The Boulevard's bar staff and customers are cool and unpretentious and are not afraid of belting it out at jam sessions. Patrons love the drinks here because they are famously good, although expensive.

Boulevard Bar

Owing to its mix of comfortable couches, welcoming bartenders, and generous happy hours, amazing drag performances, this no-pretense, a traditional gay bar in Chelsea is older than many many others. Please be aware iPhone junkies: you’re going to have a hard time getting reception here, and you're going to have to use your real-life skills to find Mr. Tonight. Homosexuality has yet to be accepted openly by our culture, and it is not always tolerated. This makes it harder for gays to find partners and openly love or date as they wish to. The brave-hearted, though, still find their way around their sexual identity and end up satisfied.

The Eagle

When you favor cocktails over beer, and like your hot chicks hairy and in straps — or some form of leather — the Eagle might top your preferred bar list. The Eagle, once known as the Gauntlet II, was the destination of desire for a large body of leather daddies, bears, and sexy alternate Silver Lake styles, all of which fit well together in this cool, sweaty, no-frills room that really pulls in a herd at weekends.

Faultline

While Los Angeles appeared willing to sacrifice on leather as one leather bar closed after another, Faultline kept its gates unlocked and accepted the vibrant community of bears. Currently, the crowd richness at Faultline couldn't be any farther from the trendily groomed crowd at West Hollywood. Moist with the pheromone fragrance and dry sweating rather than the new Gucci perfume, Faultline takes great pride in upholding the "men's bar" custom.
