Hermosa Beach Bars and Clubs

Welcome to Party City, USA. SoCal singles flock to Hermosa Beach to sunbathe and surf during the day, and to dance and party all night. Hermosa Beach bars and clubs are congregated around the intersection of Pier and Hermosa Avenues, and everything is within walking distance in this small beachside community. Party people looking for Hermosa Beach nightlife will find a wide range of options, from laid-back surfer hangouts and piano bars to classic pubs, jazz clubs and live music venues. Many bars and clubs in Hermosa Beach are small and fill up fast, so look for the line on weekend nights – but expect packed houses of hot bodies, surfer types and young 20-something singles.

Ground Zero on Pier Avenue is Sharkeez, the popular surf-style bar that stays stuffed to the gills on weekend nights, with the outdoor patio of Patrick Molloy’s Irish Pub next door stealing the show on sunny afternoons. Find live music at Brixton, The Lighthouse and newcomer Sainte Rock, with blues at Café Boogaloo and a piano lounge at Club 705. New restaurant and lounge Abigaile brings brasserie dining and on-site beer brewing to Hermosa Beach, while Ocean Bar’s rooftop lounge provides fireside seating and a view of the Pacific. Check out Pier Avenue revelry from Fat Face Fenner’s Fishack’s second floor balcony, hang loose at the bamboo Tiki bar at Watermans, or head to Establishment for the hippest Hermosa Beach club scene around. - Shilo Urban
