Birdcage Venice Beach (CLOSED)

Established in 2016, The Birdcage Venice Beach is one of the most popular new gay bars in Santa Monica, LA. The decor is chic, as are the clientele. There's a fab selection of cocktails too.

If you want to see and be seen on the gay scene in LA, this is a great spot to be in. Expect lots of house music. If you'd like a bit of peace and quiet you can chill on the patio. The drinks aren't cheap but they sure taste good. Try La Rosa Blanca, if you're a cocktail fan. You won't be disappointed.
