Love this bar! Great atmosphere, drinks are priced well, and a good selection of bottled and canned beers in addition to the usual Coors, Buds, Coronas, etc. Even though it's considered a "dive" bar, it's probably the best well kept, clean, and nicely decorated of any of the little neighborhood bars I've been in. Up to date TVs, refinished pool table, and an electronic jukebox that actually plays good music! Haha! The owners are great, making sure people are comfortable and having a good time. If I lived closer, I'd probably be in more often... Updated 2/3/17- the Mari Fruta drink is thee BOMB! These guys need to take this drink national/international. It's crisp, clean n delicious! What I love even more about it is that it's not syrupy-tasting. It's just right. Love it. And I'm a dude that loves bourbon & Budweiser. read more

Good times at Blvd Cocktails! Love going Thursday nights. Bartender has a charming personality and is super funny. Great selection on beers, chill environment and guest food vendors are delicious. Perfect place to hang out with friends on any day of the week. read more

Was looking for a good bar to go to with a good happy hour and I came across a freaking amazing bar with a great happy hour and fantastic atmosphere. All 3 bartenders I've encountered have been quick , accommodating and cheerful (even on a busy Friday with karaoke full blown) I have found my new home bar. Blvd cocktails is where it's at, with nice deals and seasons bartenders and of course a nice pool table. GINA makes the best kamikazes :) read more

I just left this bar! I wouldn't recommend this place. The drinks are great. however, the bartender lost my bf's ID. I was trying to diffuse the situation. Trying to communicate with an intoxicated bartender. & she has her friends there & giving them FREE drinks. After the bartender started being rude for losing the ID. She magically found it. Her friends were being rude. Trying to argue with me a paying customer. & of course i am human i felt harassed & the need to defend myself against another customer (who was the bartenders friend). This place is very unprofessional. The bartender was all over 2 guys, lost the a customer'a ID, then the bartender's friends try to instigate a fight between the bartender & I. The bartender's friend was being racist on top of that trying to talk shit on my cousin (who is mixed with Caucasian, & looks full caucasian however she's mixed with Latina) & calling her a stupid white girl in Spanish. She was surprised when my cousin responded in Spanish right back defending herself. The bartender magically found his ID & said "don't ever come back". I am so appalled of the customer service provided but this bartender. I felt victimized. My bf went back to apologized & spoke to the manager trying to diffuse the situation & he was told by the manager "well I'm with my family". Umm hello, you own a business, the holidays are over. There is no excuse for your unprofessional staff. But I'm sure the the BBB (Better business bureau) would like to know on how this business DOES NOT CARD UNDER ANYONE ON THE NIGHT SHIFT HOURS ON THE WEEKENDS). I would advise not to come here! Sometimes the good deals are not worth the mistreatment you will experience here by the day time drunk bartender. Just saw the review from the owner. Let me clarify since i was very upset when i wrote this. The bartenders friends was the one being racist. Not the bartender. AGAIN NOT THE BARTENDER. I will apologize for that. & i did not once ask for any free drinks & was not rude at all. I literally was sympathizing with the bartender because people do make mistakes. I repeatedly kept telling her it's okay we just try to retrace your steps & she was scared to get fired. I dont ever want anyone to get fired over a simple mistake. I even remembered she mentioned that her boss has cameras & i asked her to ask her boss so we can resolve this. In all this time. I had not raised my voice nor was I being rude. & when i did hear the only one person within my party trying to be rude. I told her something. Because no one deserves to be disrespected. I don't agree with the behavior of the one person in my group. As to why I was trying to leave. But i bet you miss that in your videos. However, while this was going on the bartenders friend was trying to add fuel to the fire by saying she(meaning the only intoxicated person in the group) is saying this & that. That's when i got upset with her friend & felt the need to defend myself & she was trying to say something slick in Spanish about my cousin who does not look Hispanic at all & my cousin also was trying to diffuse the situation but defended herself in Spanish to clearly let her know. She understood everything that was said. & yes you're right Maria did offer to pay after he went to the DMV & brought back a receipt. Come on who really wants to do that. As to why I was trying to talk to the bartender to remember her footsteps. We were trying to avoid filing a police report if the ID could not be found. Because that would of been worse to go down that route. & the bartender MARIA was NOT really sober. & after all of this, she tells me I'm not welcomed back. Because i got into it with her friend. How professional is that. I completely understand that the behavior of one intoxicated person was not right(& i was telling the intoxicated person to stop & made her go outside) but to allow her friend to try to harass us & for Maria to kick us out is rude. So please don't sit here & try to imply that we were all drunk & they my bf apologized for all of our behaviors. He was apologizing for one behavior & didn't understand why your bartender spoke in Spanish to him. He clearly doesn't know Spanish & he felt as if she was doing this on purpose & she could have been making remarks about him in Spanish. However, being the gentleman that he is. He left after speaking with you. I've been here at night on the weekends. It's a great place but unfortunately the way all of this was handled was wrong. read more

Always great to support local business, this place since the new ownership has been great. I tend to stop by after a long day of work with my brother in law to relax. Have never seen an issue with customers acting up regardless of looking trashed (thankfully) every once in a while we bring our wives by to relax, last time being for St Patrick's day. Place was packed which I don't mind as that's good for the owners. Only slight downside that cut my night short that day was a bit past midnight if I'm not mistaken I was served a warm "modelo" went on to just ask to get my beer replaced as I understood why the first bartender I flagged blew me off and said something along the lines of "that's all we have" I then waited for the other bartender and just asked to switch for another Type which she gladly did, so no biggie. I mean nobody wants warm beer lol On a side note, the ladies loved their "sex on the beach" drink was strong but they still enjoyed it. Next ordered a cranberry/vodka and the ladies both stated it was "crazy strong" I told them no such thing as "too strong" so I went on to taste it (although I didn't admit it to them) it was definitely strong. No taste of anything other than vodka. All in all definitely a good place to relax though, and after a good night of relaxing you have Tams and tacos Giyos within walking distance for some good sobering up food lol read more

I'm not a hater but the atmosphere isn't up. Most places are in the gutter but Blvd Cocktails is hanging on.

Definitely a dive bar for the locals. It's not in the best area, but their was no cover and good parking. They have a pool table and karaoke which makes for a fun night of entertainment. My drinks were super affordable, only about $4, and the lady bartender was very nice. Their is a minimum of $10 to use your card at the bar, so keep that in mind. read more

Best bar ever with the best service! Love the atmosphere here, perfect bar to have any drink you want and just chill. The marifrutas are their specialty and omg they are so good, but they do creep up so be careful lol love the owners too!!! read more

This is the spot to come hang out. Friendly bartenders, excellent atmosphere, great drinks at an exceptional value. No drama, just friendly staff and Patrons... I come here and watch the Packers game. They get a nice group of fans for every game. Today they played the Giants and it was a party in there. See you guys next week. The owners are very friendly and cool, I suggest you guys visit once... read more

Ok so first off I had a bad experience here 1 time of the several times that I've been there. Now I left a bad review when that happened and was extremely upset over a guy that was causing problems in the bar. Now I was mostly upset cause he wasn't thrown out because it was assumed he was the owners friend. Now the owners have reached out to me to clear things up and this guy was left over trash from the old bar owner. I have a whole lot of respect for the new owners to reach out to be and make things right. Now on to the bar, it's super clean and in a great location. Its average priced and has all type of bottles. We've been in small and big groups and have always had a blast. Jukebox is always going with great music and it's a very mixed crowd. If you've been here in the past and had a bad experience I urge you to come back and give it a another chance. I'm glad I did...... read more

I love this place. Best dive bar in paramount ALL the bartenders are super friendly and welcoming. Very diverse crowd all different age ranges it's a comfortable bar to come relax and have a good time. Cheap drinks good times read more

Very good bar. The karaoke is on point Everyone was welcoming. The drinks are reasonable. My boyfriend and myself had a great time. Will be back again. read more

regarding the I.d. verification excuse and examples mentioned by the "owners".....i really dont know where to begin? "Practicality"? "most patrons are veterans and those who are reluctant to provide identification are troublemakers?", or my favorite part, "a crime committed in the bar,wouldnt i want to know who that was?"........are you guys serious? Let's get something straight, you guys run a bar, not a country club, not even close. if you guys are so apprehensive about crime, hire more toy cops. Look, I show my I.d to the casino, for age verification! I show my I.d. at cosco, to show membership! hell, for a 25% discount, I I show my i.d. at my local park on yoga weds to prove im a resident of the city!!! and i guarantee you, NOT 1 of these places reasons for requesting my I.d. have anything to do with the "possibility of violence" which may or may not take place at thier facility; and even moreover, all of these places have been pre authorized with my consent and trust , KNOWINGLY, WILLFULLY, AND ACCORDING TO LAW. And even MOREOVER, this information (which for some reason BLVD seems to think they have the right to just cuz somone enters their business) was released to an authorized, professional representive of that establishment, not some toy cop working the door! Forget "practicality" and save your opinionated facts for your bar convos, Obey the law like every other business owner in paramount or get checked. read more

Stopped by last night for the first time and I enjoyed myself. The establishment looks good and the bartender was super friendly. They had karaoke and a pool table and I found out you can bring in good as well if you'd like which is a plus. There's a Jack in the Box and Alondra Hot Wings right across the street which is convenient. I'll definitely be going back especially since I like a couple blocks away. Well done Blvd. Cocktails, cheers. read more

Great dive with the sweetest bartender!!!! Prices are exceptional, and people are chill.

This is by far one of the best, if not the best dive bar that I have ever been to. The owners and the staff will treat you like family. I say that because I know I can't be a difficult patron at times. But when i say I have had nothing but good experiences and met some of the most amazing people, I am not lying. I literally worked on my masters degree at this bar. Dustin and Mari thank you for being y'all and I can't forget the unofficial bar manager Ms. B! And my favorite bartenders flea, steph, and turtle!! read more

This spot on Fridays is poppin I live down the street and honestly the other day was my first time coming to this place It was karaoke night and I sang my favorite reggae song Bam bam from sister Nancy and it was poppin Most of the people were Islanders and they were super nice to us and everything ...I'm Mexican so it was super poppin we repped the LBC with much love read more

Went in on a Weds night cool bar, great selection, pool table & jukebox but the bartender was beyond rude! A few people there came up to me and said I wasn't the only one who felt that way as a bartender myself I know it's all about great customer service so if I ever go back I'll make sure it's not on her shift! read more

Pretty chill spot. I had always passed by it after work. Went with a friend and found seats fast. Bartender made my Irish mule hella strong. :) As the night progressed an older crowd started to come in. Ran into several ppl from Paramount High. Cool spot to kill time at. read more

I would like to give his place a 3.5. First visit was really good. Good vibe, mixture of people. Last time I went, it seemed a little off. The bartenders r good and the pours are on point. I would go again, hopefully next time it's a better crowed read more

I came here a few months ago for my birthday! Dusty & the family were so amazing making me feel so special! I brought a couple of friends & they had the time of their life! Picking songs from the jukebox & the bartenders were so friendly with all my friends! They always ask me to go back! Will definitely be coming back frequently when they open back up! Thanks so much dusty! read more

They are still open...apparently for regulars only. I guess they don't accept any new customers. No one was wearing a mask. They were not following COVID-19 SAFETY PROCEDURES AT ALL. Seems like an illegal, irresponsible establishment. If you are looking for a good time, look somewhere else. read more

The reviews are great! I'm surely looking forward to our visit with our dear friend for her bday celebration.. I also really like that the owners replied to the messages including the few bad ones. They even pulled the video on one of them! Wow! Now that's customer service! I really cant wait now! read more

I love, love, this place. Last night was my first time coming here after reading great reviews on yelp. They were spot on. The micheladas super good, had just the right amount of kick to it and the mari fruta delicious. What makes the place special? the people ,from the bartender[stephanie is awesome]to the locals. I felt immediately welcomed and they treated me like family. I would definitely be coming more often read more

Super chill spot, went in for a Packer game on a Thursday evening, the food smelled amazing and the people were very friendly. I didn't get to order any food but I'm definitely trying something next time I go. read more

The service was wonderful! Flea was wonderful! You must ask for her watermelon/lucas drink! Shes courteous and knowledgeable of her drinks! Highly recommended! read more

PART 3: So as you can see your response was inundated with pure inaccuracies!! I do not drink so your story about the drinks were completely false!! Just so you can separate the black females and understand the difference between us, I was NOT the young woman with the drink issue. In fact role your footage again and you will notice that I wasn't apart of that conversation and have no knowledge of what transpired. We can debate the issue as long as we need to but the fact remains your business etiquette requires adjusting. For you to continue to try to prove your point clearly states you're defensive and emotional. I did find your interactions racially motivated and I stand on that unwilling to compromise. You probably took one look at my blue lipstick and it was on from there! You never intended on being a neutral entity. On the contrary your demeanor was aggressive. Did you know that body language speaks volumes? You never need words yo truly express yourself and on that night your body was loud and clear! I understand that dealing with the public can be a difficult task but you must learn to keep your composure. What is more appalling is your clear disregard and respect for women..... married yeah ok. Again, stop responding to second hand information and reply to only the facts. You can attest to my behavior regarding only you which was more than deserved. So therefore let's continue letting reviewers depict the night in question. And by the way we had an excellent night at The French Quarters in Bellflower! The DJ is really good and they have AMAZING food!! The night ended on a great note after your attempt to ruin it! read more

My fav bar in paramount . Great place to have a good drink . Love the bartenders , always greeted with a smile . Cheers !!!

Great Local bar. The People make this bar for me. From the Bartenders to the Local Drinkers Who I share a drink with. Hands down a great chill spot to watch Dodger Games or Sunday Football and just grab a brew. The selection of mix Drinks keeps the Ladies happy. read more

This place is awesome! Great service and great drinks! The watermelon was my favorite, definitely coming back

First off me and my wife love this place and frequently recommend it to others. The owners (married couple) came up to me and thanked me for our business and said he loved customers like us who are always respectful and bring others. BUT last night some dude wanted to TRY to be a tuff guy after he was politely turned down on his obvious advances on my buddies wife. Prior to that my wife was uncomfortable and asked me to take her home because of this guy (Johnathan). When I came back I had to try to play peacemaker to prevent this guy (who was by his self) from getting stomped out because our group was about 8 guys. The bartender was not rude about it but actually admitted that she saw him start eveything HOWEVER! asked us to leave????? She was ALMOST apologetic saying I have no choice "Johnathan" is the owners friend. I hate to see a owner who is very humble and cool let a buddy crap all over his business like this. It was another group of patrons who left when all the ruckus started also. John Payne - Extremely Disappointed read more

Worsttttt place to go ! Bad service.! The bartender treated me and my friend bad because she had preferences with two other girls that were prior customers and since we were new she litterly kicked us out the place. One of the girls started talking smack which i obiously defended myself i am not a a fighter so that is the reason i know this place is awful. they should learn how manage more situations like this instead of saying that because the others were old customers she had preference she did not want to sell us more drinks because the other girl told her not too. What kind of sh... Is that !!! So she serve us water . That was very humiliated. read more

This is my local go to bar where my friends and I can be ourselves. Their micheladas are amazing, they add slices of jalapeño in it for that kick. They have karaoke on Fridays with the friendliest Dj. We love their signature drink the Marifruta. I literally always have the best time when I go. The owners are really cool people, who truly care about the customers. Can't wait to go back again. read more

While other so called "bars" we're closed at 12:30am we finally came across BLVD. Cocktails Which was still open like a bar should be at 12 or 1am. Me and 3 buddies arrived on a Thursday night and there were only maybe 2 or 3 men. In other words it was a slow night. We came in, we ordered a couple beers which I thought were rightfully priced at 4-6 dollars depending what kind. They have a pool table which we took advantage off. 1 dollar per game but no biggie, what I really liked was their juke box!!!! This one was one of a kind. Why??? Because it was updated with the latest songs. I've seen other juke boxes that only have old songs and don't have all the new hits. The bartender was a young women I think her name was Maria she introduced herself to us. maybe she's the owner I don't know or maybe I don't remember. She was really nice and very attentive. There was also another man behind the counter maybe her husband??? Real chill dude! If they are the owners it is nice to see they are involved in the business. When 1:40am came she notified us "last call" which we did order more drinks. Only problem was that at 1:45 we needed another drink. Yeah we were thinking she would not sell us anymore. But we still asked and she did! Yay! We finished our last drink and walked out peacefully! Unfortunately we live about a 25 minute drive from this place if not we would frequent it often. But I'm sure we might walk in again someday. Keep up the great work and hope your business continues the path it is on. SUCCESS! read more

This place is across from my school and SOOOOO bomb. Mari makes the best drinks and also Diane or jene. I love coming here read more

Blvd. Cocktails - Yummm - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Paramount, California

Although this spot is a little far from home, it's worth the uber ride! Been coming here for over a year and I gotta say every time I come in its a little better than the last. Just a good old fashioned dive where you can get a couple of drinks and enjoy some conversation, listen to the juke box, or watch the game. We'll be back. Then we'll be back again! read more
