This place is such a great fun neighborhood gay bar! The service is always great and I love the vibe here. We do karaoke on Saturday nights and it's so much fun! The drinks are strong and it's always a good time! read more

First time here during the start of pride season they had some complimentary cookies & donuts. I wasn't a fan of the music the DJ was playing. The bartenders were attentive & took our orders immediately. Overall a nice bar most of the bars in the gayborhood are cash only. read more

Broadway Cocktail Lounge - Frozen mango - Karaoke Near Me - Long Beach, California

This place is horrible. Drove al the way from San Gabriel valley to see what the gay night life was like in Long Beach. My partner and I have been to Long Beach and love the vibes but we stopped in this place cuz we had to use the bathroom and after we were gonna head to sweet water and omg this girl inside was banging on the door while my partner was using the bathroom and being so rude! My partner came out and said why was she knocking loud and she proceeded to try to attack girlfriend!!! My gf ended up beating her ass cuz you don't know us!!!! That's what you get for acting like that. Even though she provoked it they kicked us out and let her stay. This place is wack. Don't come here smh ‍ read more

Heads up: Cash only! Place is alright. For Saturday it wasn't too crowded. The dj is legit mixing some good tracks. You can actually hear the person next to you which is kinda nice. A michlob Ultra will set you back $8 but hey it is what it is :) read more

Broadway Cocktail Lounge - Michelob - Karaoke Near Me - Long Beach, California

Came during pride, and it definitely had great prices and great air conditioning. We ordered drinks and the bar, and enjoyed the atmosphere. The D.J. Had people on the dance floor and people were consistently flocking in. Came during pride, so not sure how the crowd is during other times. We enjoyed ourselves. read more

Neighborhood GLBT bar. Opens at noon and I arrived just about that time . This was once the bar I frequented as I lived on the block . I like the changes it is brighter and more open . Drinks are strong. Cash only with an ATM available. I recommend stopping at your bank first as the charges will add up. The bar is clean the staff helpful. read more

My girlfriend and I came to this bar visiting from Illinois. We came during karaoke night which we had a great time people were very kind and drinks were strong but GOOD. read more

The bar itself is okay, but the KJ with the gray hair is awful. One of the worst I have seen in years, and I regularly go to karaoke (1-4 times a week). I tip really well. He skips people who he doesn't like their songs, even if they are before others. It is understandable if a kj adds new people at the end, however, several people who sang in the first round after me got to sing again. Karaoke had started at 9:30 pm and I still hadn't sung a second song by 11:30 pm, when others in the first round had all sung a second song. Really disappointing experience! Absolutely DO NOT recommend. I only came here because I was attending a birthday party. There are WAY better karaoke places where the KJ's run fair rotational orders. It sucks to because they only accept cash. I feel like i wasted my money. read more

Not a bad spot for a couple well drinks, pool and karaoke if you're so inclined. Located at the gateway of Long Beach's ‍ nabe, and it's a haven for friends of mine in the community. Frequented by locals, a bit divey, maybe not where I'd start a night-out drinking sesh but where is take it from there. Drinks are reasonably priced. Solid G&T. Bartenders are pretty chill. read more

Broadway Cocktail Lounge - Outside street view. - Karaoke Near Me - Long Beach, California

For a local gay bar this place continues to decline. Over priced, cash only, loud music when no one is in bar,sub-par pool tables, unclean bathrooms. read more

Also, the dj guy who was rude to me is also part of Silver Fox and told me another night that I wasn't able to sing a song because someone else was already singing it. WTF?! read more

I just have to say that I came in around 830 on a Friday and the bartender was extremely rude because I asked him what kind of liquor was he serving me !!! The response was that I didn't specify what liquor I want it so either I drink what he gave me or I wasn't getting shit!!! read more

Came here for my 21st birthday, best night ever !! Had a blast at kareoke and everyone was so nice! read more

Louis is the greatest Bartender at The Broadway bar. Love to hang out when he is working. So much great energy and the friendless can't be found anywhere else. Guaranteed a good time when Louis is working. read more

Its a dingy dive bar, but I'm a fan. Karaoke is a favorite here for its low-key audience. I remember one year, i was going through a bad break up around xmas, my co-worker brought me here for a "shift-drink". It was decorated rather kitsch. Bartender back then was a cool guy and made me laugh. I have been dropping back ever since. It used to be older men, lately lots of bitchy queens hang out here, I think they are jealous of my boogie. The bartenders are always cool though. and thats all that matters. read more

Broadway Cocktail Lounge - Karaoke Near Me - Long Beach, California

Been frequenting this bar off and on for quite a few years. Bartenders are not overly friendly but friendly enough and the drink prices are pretty reasonable for the area. Clientele is not pretentious and a good low key place to grab a drink or 2. read more

Love this place! I'm new to Long Beach, and have only been here twice, but can't wait to go back! Such a great neighborhood joint. Good drinks, great service, and no pretense. read more

Horrible service, if you want to do karaoke, there are no spots open unless you're a local. Get ready to get looked at weird. This place has so much potential but no hospitality. read more

Good drinks nice bartenders and the ONLY bar around with free parking lot!! but one strange detail. A TV playing CNN runs constantly like a dark negative cloud over what would otherwise be a fun time. I go out to have a drink and forget about all the crap in the world. Other nearby bars maintain a more chill professional all inclusive atmosphere like mineshaft sweet water et al. read more

Best place to hang out! I was waiting for a friend and all the bar peeps were friendly and engaging. Great drinks and Julio? I think his name was, was my bartender for the first hour or 2 and was so kind and engaging. Loved his personality and his sense of humor. He was very genuine in his approach towards me. Very nice person and I complimented him at the shift change as the 2nd bar guy took over. Second bartender, Miguel. That went differently. I had been hanging out till my friend showed up and he's was late so I had a drink and some water. I was trying to get Miguel's attention to order another drink/water. He had been chatting with the guys at the other end of the bar, obviously regulars, for awhile. He was not making drinks....he was chatting with the patrons, I get it, make your money honey .... but I was not being rude or loud and another regular, a younger guy, was trying to help me from across the bar, by getting his attention for me. As my friend walked in and sat down next to me Miguel came over and began telling me that I was rude, he was with other customers, it's just rude to interrupt him like that, I needed to wait my turn, and what did I want?... etc. I was so embarrassed in front of my friend and the guy across the bar was mouth open WTF? I said "Wow, sorry, just needed some water". He then asked My friend in a very pleasant tone what did he want? We ended up leaving. Dude. Who peed in your corn flakes and why are you taking it out on me? Look I don't want to create trouble because hospitality is a hard job!!! I know that, but I also know that 25 years experience in the hospitality industry allows me a certain amount of professional judgement. Great establishment, very nice clientele, but Some customer service training wouldn't go amiss. You just don't embarrass customers like that. read more

Don't come here if you're trying to have fun with karaokee! We came here with coworkers after a work party thinking we would be able to sing and instead they told us they were full for the night! They only let "regulars" sing and they let their cocktail waitress sing 4 times before even considering letting us sing. They only let our coworker sing because she paid $20 and I never even had a chance!! What a rip off!!! Don't come to this bar for a good time - stay away for karaoke! read more

This bar is amazing, and the karaoke is run professionally; so fun and so fair. The drinks are mixed amazingly and the prices are great. Honestly, this is one of the best bars in downtown. Highly recommend. read more

Random little dive bar in the LBC that features pool, karaoke, cocktails, and bit more cock than tails. If you catch my drift. Bad joke aside, I came here looking for some random karaoke fun. I found the karaoke, but the fun was sorely lacking. I think the predominantly gay crowd took itself a bit too seriously and sang mostly sappy love songs from popular gay acts such as such as George Michael, Elton John, and Coldplay. When I went on stage, people showed genuine enthusiasm for my upbeat songs and performances, but the rest of the singers did not follow my lead. It was just one bad depressing song after another that were sandwiched in between me. Oh yeah, please remind me to never use the phrase "sandwiched in between me" when discussing a gay bar. Anyway, the depressing songs mixed with the really dark interior gave the place a gloomy vibe. I sort of wished these guys would have a stiff one (drink, that is), take the huge stick out of their butt (figuratively speaking), and sing some fun songs by Madonna, Lady Gaga, and of course, Queen. Now that would make want to rock out with my sock out. Wait. Did you think I was going to say... Anyway, this place has potential. But right now, the overall karaoke mood is a bit somber for me. And plus, no one hit on me. Technically, I am straight. But sometimes when on business, a guy enjoys a free drink and good conversation. Am I losing my boyish appeal? Does this mean I need to develop a personality? read more

Best bartenders here Brian is the best and the new guy definitely has some big shoes to fill Cause Dane is just the best. But he's definitely doing good. Love this bar. read more

Came here on a Wednesday night for my cousin Daniel F,'s going away pub crawl. The crowd was really nice, friendly and social. I spent most of my time hanging out with my newfound friends at the jukebox and picking out tunes for us to shake our booties too. Pool is free after 9 on Wednesday nights. only negatives you can't really lock the girls bathroom door:( but it's a gay bar not a lipstick lounge, EVS. But we had a blast while we were there so who cares? ;) They do definitely have a great selection of tunes on their box. ATM on premises read more

Came with friends for the first time. Great atmosphere , and music. Nice crowd. They karaoke and and pool tables. Plenty of seating and the sexy bartender made tasty and stiff drinks. love this place! read more

Okay Okay...I've read the out-of-town primadonnas slashing the Broadway Bar, and I have to admit...in some cases it's true. Karaoke really hasn't been the same since Bobby left back in January. With Ernesto down to just Fridays on the weekends, my desire to go back to the bar are slim to none. I love a good watering hole, and yes it REALLY IS the Star Wars Cantina at times, but that's what makes Long Beach so colorful. We don't have a thousand carbon copies like *ahem* WEHO, rather a sort of Catch-All assortment. The bar has parking, but there really needs to be a bouncerthat can REALLY do the job, not just someone looking for a few bucks in their pocket on the weekend. Look folks, if you're looking for "Fab" or something trendy...don't waste your gas, please stay in Hollywood. We actually appreciate diversity down here at the beach. I never thought I'd defend the likes of the Broadway Bar, but damnit...YOU DON'T MESS WITH LONG BEACH, M'kay? Oh, and that comment about the Heater being so flippin hot...YOU WERE RIGHT ON! There have been many times that I swear the flesh was going to melt off the backs of some bar hoppers! read more

Awesome customer service and bar tenders. I'd recommend this bar to anyone looking for anyone looking for a genuine LGBTQ+ friendly business and an energetic spot in Long Beach. It's also very clean, including the bathrooms, which is a huge plus! read more

This is an amazing Bar. Not only does it cater to locals, it's a safe place for everyone. The staff is professional and welcoming. The pricing is amazing and the karaoke is off the hook. Anytime during the week you can find great conversation and the jukebox playing. I feel comfortable coming here and enjoy a wonderful cocktail. read more

The patrons are fun and are what make the bar worth stopping at. Bar tender was cool and attentive. Bouncer is rude and uncouth. Luckily there are plenty of bars to choose from that are a short walking distance away. read more

Been here a few times for drinks and karaoke, and have always had a good time. Bartenders are awesome, drinks are reasonably priced, and bathroom isn't disgusting. Gay or not, the crowed is always friendly and lively. REALLY good Bloody-Mary's. read more

I stumbled into this Gay Karaoke bar with about 8 Marines, 1 Coast Guard and 3 civilians (I being one of the civilians). We were hanging out for 2 birthdays. The bar tender was friendly, the karaoke dj was good to us, the cliental LOVED us. One older gentlemen told my BF that the marines reminded him of his days in the Korean war. :) Drinks are cheap, place is a little dingy and for the most part we went conflict free. We did get scolded for singing along to one karaoke song by someone that said they worked there, but everyone quieted down and respected her voice time. I will definitely be back, sans Marines, to enjoy this establishment in the future. read more

I live VERY close to this bar, so a few months ago, I decided to try it out. I loved it, and it's still one is my go-to bars on Broadway. Strong drinks at a good price. Pool, Pacman, and Karaoke. A comfortable couch. Friendly atmosphere. Good bartenders. Clean. read more

If you love dive bars and have no preference on the type of spirit you're being served this is your place. Again, don't go if you're picky. They don't have top shelf stuff so be prepared to drink your basic Well brands. But before I even jump into this review let me let you know that it's CASH ONLY. I put that in caps so if this review pops up first you'll know what you're getting into before you walk in and order a drink. The bartender was hilarious and the crowd seemed scary at first, but then I realized they were just slightly crotchety regulars mixed in with some less scary regulars. I'm not a huge dive bar fan, but if I were I'd go to this place. read more
