No list of L.A. nightlife is complete without The Abbey. For over three decades, it has been more than a gay bar it has been the heartbeat of West Hollywood.
With sprawling patios, multiple dance floors, and its sister space The Chapel, The Abbey blends club energy with community hub. It has hosted drag royalty, political fundraisers, and countless celebrity sightings.
Even as new bars emerge, The Abbey remains iconic because it adapts updating menus, renovating spaces, yet never losing its spirit of inclusivity. For Angelenos and visitors alike, it’s not just nightlife. It’s pilgrimage.
