Amanda HensonMarch 18, 2016Great atmosphere. Found it via TMZ tour but the lady forgot to mention it was a gay bar. That being said my husband and I did have a great time here even though we didn't anticipate going to a gay bar
Love the Abbey! The burning orange :it's good but is flat in flavor. The hummus plate is ok but It is not traditional hummus at all. Just add some tahini and some lime juice and youll be set Abbey :)
Eli AAugust 28, 2018It’s an amazing environment fun times good cocktails and decent music depending on the night. I would not fully classify it as a gay only bar but definitely gay friendly as all of Weho is🏳️🌈
Scott ZolnierczykSeptember 10, 2012Great for those new to the scene. This place changed my Idea of gay clubs forever. I love hanging with my friends here, just beware it gets super packed Fri, Sat and Sun nights.
Hanna AvlasMarch 28, 2023Our first clubbing experience in LA at this joyful, spacious, diverse club. Drinks are primitive and super expensive. But, again, it's clubbing in LA, what you expect, be grateful for free entrance 😄
JulienFebruary 18, 2018Great fun! There’s quite a line out on the weekend but goes in super fast just a simple ID check
Nice place to hang out during the week. Good music, crowd, & food. One of the best New Years celebrations as well. They throw some of the best holiday parties actually. Fun place!
ISAAC MYERSJanuary 4, 2015It is a fun club! But, you must be in the mood for twinks. My belief is never mix fashion with a possible date. Looking for real man go East possibly as far as Silver lake!
Try their breakfast! I love coming on Sat. mornings to get some amazing food in my tummy & a Bloody Mary to get rid of any slight hangover from being here Friday nights! Try Breakfast & let me know...
LogoTVSeptember 27, 2012When I need to wind-down and have a cocktail you best believe it's on Sunday afternoons with friends. My Best Bud Kris and CJ make the best drinks. - Ernest Pierce, DTLA
S ChanSeptember 4, 2012Great atmosphere and good food! Tried the short ribs quesadilla & portabello mushroom sandwich...highly recommended! It was sooo delicious! Great portion sizes as well!
LA WeeklyNovember 2, 2011Get on your knees and pray at the Abbey, a sprawling 16,000-square-foot indoor-outdoor drinking establishment that attracts a consistently fierce crowd of choirboys (and the clergymen that love them)
This place has turned into a total tourist spot now. Its "bridge & tunnel" to the highest extent! You New Yorker's know what I'm talking about when I say "bridge & tunnel", over-priced drinks too!
David is my favorite bartender. He only works Fridays and Saturdays, and special events. He makes a strong drink, and he's charming as all get out.
Peter J. MalandrinosMay 17, 2017I love you Abbey the food is great thank you calamari is on point and the drinks are perfect I will be back
Allison PhelanJuly 27, 2013there's a bakery & its *part* of the club!!!!!!!!! :) unreal & amazing get the giant chocolate cupcake!!!! <3Upvoted Jan 23
Steve KleineMay 17, 2013DJ Donna Montell on Sunday afternoon is amazing. And if you are in when DJ Casey Alva is in the house you are in for serious treat!
Showtime NetworkJune 3, 2011Vodka and Red bulls are $12 and totally worth it. The Sunday brunch cannot be beat – for the food or the view of beautiful men and women strewn about. -Kacy & Cori, The Real L Word
Thru 1/6/14 vote for The Abbey for Best Nightclub and Jason Urbanski for favorite bartender in the WeHoConfidential Awards: www.wehoconfidential.com/2013/12/vote-in-3rd-annual-whos-who-rewards.html
PeopleJuly 29, 2011This West Hollywood gay hotspot is a go-to destination for anyone looking to mix it up while fueled by a plethora of famous martini flavors, from key lime pie to cucumber.
Greg ColemanJuly 28, 2012Good food, friendly service, great atmosphere, and starbursts in the bathrooms! Bring a little cash to tip the bathroom attendant. It would be rude not to, boys!
The LA Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce has a networking luncheon here every third Wednesday from 11:30am to 1:00pm Read more
Hethalein MaresOctober 13, 2013HAWT male go gos/pole dancers day & night! If you want to see lady go go dancers Wednesday is the night! Tasty food too!- Ronnie the shot boy on the weekends is the nicest, sexiest man you'll ever meet! Buy a shot from him!
Andrew BristowMay 8, 2017As an SF Queen, I've heard LA Gays RAVE about this place, I found it to be lacking, no one dances, & bathroom attendants are annoying to have. Music was okay and the gogos were hot but couldn't dance
Jean MarieAugust 17, 2014I hadn't been here in over 10 years, but it was great coming back for old time's sake. Good service and very friendly.
Andrew ChoiJanuary 19, 2014Usually packed, but get a few (or many) drinks in you and you'll have an amazing time.
José AyalaAugust 15, 2016Good vibe, so much fun, dancers, cute waiters. I wanna come back for dinner.
ClareFebruary 24, 2016Very fun! Quick bar service. Dance floor got packed but it was still a good time.
Laura PopeApril 13, 2013I had a fab night with friends. Don't hate on the straight people that come. Def coming back for the drinks & food!
خورخ دانيال مركض لوترنJune 9, 2015A little crowded but fun fun fun. The place looks awesome. Nice looking dancers.
- Showtime NetworkJune 18, 2010If you’re looking for the best place to go for Sunday fundays hit this spot up. Amazing drinks, mixed crowd and always a good time throughout the whole week. - Whitney
Wear good shades, you're being judged on coolness relevance. Order the Appletini and you'll be cool. Enjoy this West Hollywood treasure!
JenniferOctober 5, 2014Wednesday is the best night for watching the dancers. The ladies of GirlBar are extremely talented.
It's a great location, but during the weekend it's best to leave the drinking at another bar. It gets ridiculously packed and your drink may not make it through as most of it will be on the floor.
Unique StylesJuly 20, 2011~ super cool spot...good eats, drinks, dance floor and club by night with DJ and dancers. Free wi-fi...always my favorite..xo ~
Anthony LaRussoOctober 28, 2010Buddy took me here for a drink &said their "Caramel-tini's" rocked. I declined, & went for my normal beer. But. Had a sip of his drink & you know what? --> Best. Drink. Ever. Caramel-tini!!!
Adrian CollinsJanuary 2, 2016Oh the legendary Abbey! No cover, always festive. It could use a deep cleaning. Almost makes me want to drink again, but nah.
Randal CollinsFebruary 11, 2012The Abbey I've found out this evening on my first visit back in over a year is almost completely straight. A totally different vibe than you might remember if you've been here before. Such a shame! !!
ManhuntSeptember 14, 2011Possibly the most famous gay bar in town. Liz Taylor would roll up in her wheelchair. Probably the "straightest" gay bar, as well. Was that a female stripper?
PMAugust 26, 2015Wanna try their cakes! Check out the toilet and what they offer in front of the toilet
The happy hour used to be awesome, now it is just alright. It still is a fun location, just be careful because you can end up spending a ton of money. =)
