I didn't buy anything at the concession stand but it looked to have all the options one would expect. I did use the bathroom. Two options. A couple down stairs and a bigger bathroom upstairs. Very clean. Very nice. The theater was fantastic. The picture/sound was of the best. The chairs are decent. They lean way back as you sit back and felt very comfortable. We sat in the last row of the first section. Now this movie is instantly one of my all time favorites. I don't cry that often, but this one ripped my heart out.

When I was working here, the company I worked for had temporary offices here for a while, it was a nice space. Our floor was a bit rinky dink compared to the foyer and exterior though. I think this space is better outdoor than indoor but it's nice that there is fooda and of course, Mrs. Winstons! Parking does kind of suck but it's there, get to work a bit early to find some, the entrances seem poorly designed compared to colorado center.

I was surprised to note that when we returned later in the day that there is an attendant available to answer questions or provide support. This place is a winner in my book.

Everything was wonderful and the staff were very nice and helpful. The only thing that was a little uncomfortable was that there were many homeless people close to the playground, but I think we probably just came at a bad time and it's not always like that. Overall, the park is amazing. Thank you!

What happened here?…read more The last time I had visited Third Street Promenade was... checks calendar ...fifteen years ago. Okay, so it's been a minute. Back then, this was the place to be. The energy was contagious. People were everywhere, the shops felt relevant, and there was a sense that something was always happening. Returning recently felt a bit like running into an old friend you barely recognized. Maybe this is simply the fate of the modern shopping district. Online retail changed everything, and malls across America have been fighting a losing battle for years. Whatever the cause, the Promenade feels like it's missing its heartbeat. Storefronts sit empty, foot traffic feels sparse, and what was once a lively destination now feels more like a collection of memories. That's not to say there aren't still pockets of life here and there. The location remains excellent, and you can still catch glimpses of what made this place special. But those moments are fleeting. More than anything, a visit to Third Street Promenade feels nostalgic. Not because of what it is today, but because of what it used to be. It's hard not to walk away wishing you could have experienced it in its prime.

It's located on the Santa Monica Pier in front of Pier Burger and adjacently across from Bubba Gump Shrimp. From what I have read from other Yelp reviews, I didn't know Route 66 runs from Chicago downtown to Santa Monica Pier. Wow... no wonder it's a popular attraction! It may get really busy here and the line can get really long so plan accordingly. I would recommend you get your photo op first before venturing off to other places within the pier. It's a really neat place to be actually. I've been here a couple times most recently myself for different venues... one for Children's Hospital of Los Angeles (CHLA) fundraising event and another Heal the Bay beach cleanup volunteer event... so much fun! Come on out and enjoy your visit at Santa Monica 66 End of the Trail! See you here!

There are two Google buildings and this is one of them. There is a parking garage when you go under the binoculars. You can only get in if you know someone who works at Google. Once inside the building, you check-in and receive a badge. You have to be with your host at all times because host's badge is needed to enter in/out of some places within this facility. Also, you can take pictures inside the building with your host's permission. Honestly, I was really looking forward to free lunch at Google LA because that is the main reason why I drove all the way to Venice, CA. I was very disappointed when I found out that I could not get free lunch (not even snacks) because of the holidays! The place was completely emptied out. This place has a game room, fitness center, shower, bike rentals, mini basketball court, conference rooms, quiet rooms, kitchens, and a nice outdoor space. I hope I can come back to try their free lunch one day! I can't wait to visit other Google locations.

For a $10 entry fee (waived with student i.d.) one gains admission to the grounds on which the Eames' house and studio sit. You're invited to peer into the house and studio, they may even open a slider to enable this, but no photos of the interior are permitted. Although the experience is billed as "self-guided", during my visit a docent opened the slider to the home, allowing a better view inside, and discussed different aspects of the house with us in a very informal manner. The experience is mostly visual but if you have questions, ask away. I've no doubt the docents can answer anything you might wish to know about the Eames house and the Eames themselves. Walk the property and enjoy its natural beauty. Take a look at the map to reveal that the surrounding houses are (or were) case studies for other types of mid-century home designs. A visit to the Eames house (overseen by the Eames Foundation, advance reservations accepted), will likely take up no more than 45 minutes of your time but you'll feel like you've seen something unique and historical and forevermore you'll likely spot images of the immediately recognizable home in books and magazines allowing you to say "I've been there".
