8851 Santa Monica Blvd., West Hollywood (310) 694-0430, .įubar: Just east of the WeHo strip lies Fubar, a fun, outrageous gay bar that almost seems as if it's from a different time. (Gay)me-changer: Music videos! While you may be able to hear Madonna, Gaga or Whitney in many WeHo bars, there aren't a lot of bars where you can dance to the music while also watching the divas pose and prance via video screens. Those who want to mingle do so on the front patio. Those who want to dance can do so next to the bar inside, where the go-go dancers play and sway on platforms. Revolver Video Bar: Once you enter through the revolving doors (sticking true to its name), Revolver Video Bar isn't a huge club, but it definitely is an energetic one. The eclectic mix with a taste for nostalgia is certain to please no matter what your musical taste. One minute you may be dancing to Cardi B and the next, spinning to Donna Summer or bumping to TLC. (Gay)me-changer: The music! A great mix of pop, top 40 and hip-hop hits of today and yesteryear. Try not to be too mesmerized by the talent on display - it's the only gay bar on the WeHo strip where you may find yourself entranced by someone of the opposite sex! 8811 Santa Monica Blvd., West Hollywood (310) 855-7501, /weho.īar10: Friendly neighborhood bar meets wanton WeHo hub, Bar10 may not be as big as the Abbey or Flaming Saddles, but it still has room for a pool table, a giant bar and lots of dancing space.

Robertson Blvd., West Hollywood (310) 289-8410, /thechapel.įlaming Saddles: Part Coyote Ugly, part honky-tonk and part Cirque du Soleil, Flaming Saddles in WeHo is freakier and more fiery than its New York counterpart. (Gay)me-changer: The lights throughout the venue perfectly complement the music and make you feel more as if you're at a concert or a rave than a club. The go-go dancers are plentiful and the crowd is lively at one of the newest additions to the WeHo strip. The Chapel: Built to be “the best gay EDM party every night,” the Chapel at the Abbey is a little more secluded and smaller than the Abbey proper, which it is adjacent but not connected to. has Elizabeth Taylor (it's a painting, but she did used to go there, so it's kind of like her ghost!) overlooking the action? None, darling. (Gay)me-changer: What other venue in L.A. one, as much for its lively patio (and tasty food) as for the decadent disco inside. The Abbey is not just a WeHo institution, it's an L.A.

The Abbey: OK, so that E! TV show was a dud, but maybe that's because the vivacious energy in a space like the Abbey can't really be captured on film.
