The Abbey

This multi-level cafe bar in West Hollywood is an L.A. gay institution and definitely makes for one of the best nights out in town, with eye candy aplenty and all those Californian Muscle Mary's seeing and being seen.

The Abbey won the MTV Logo Best Gay Bar In The World Award twice. You can eat, drink, dance and watch Drag Race. Head out onto the terrace to wine and dine in the sunshine.

If you're planning to make a night of it, you can dance until the early hours. This bar is very popular and the dance floor can get packed.

Check out their sister venue, The Chapel.
