Re-re-return to C-Frenz, a very spacious bar nightclub in the heart of Reseda in the San Fernando…read moreValley. I've only been a small handful of times since 2021, but was nice to come back in again on a date night. This long-standing all inclusive lgbtq+ space is celebrating their 20th Anniversary this week as well as the birthday of one of it's awesome bartenders ChrisTopher, who served us up some great drinks tonight. This dive bar meets billiard bar meet karaoke lounge (two nights a week - Sunday and Thursday) meets double patio areas and more is a neighborhood favorite. When I lived down the street it was one of my favorite places to go whether walking along Reseda Blvd up to the street entrance or down Hart St to Canby Avenue through the patio and back door/main entrance via it's shared parking lot with neighboring businesses including a large music studio in an industrial-esque neighborhood block. There's plenty of parking between the lot and along Canby without restrictions, but also metered parking on Hart St and Reseda Blvd. It's a little more than a mile up from the Metro G - Orange Line and also rideshare friendly (back entrance drop off and pick up is often best as the front door is typically closed and/or locked at times. They have restrooms for all genders, remodeled and upgraded. Tall tables inside with seating as well as bar seating on all ends of their double sided bar. Drinks are a little more than your dive club prices, but loaded and generous portions. One downside is the AC system which is not powerful at all, and with the back doors generally open letting out in contained cool air it can be humid and muggy inside. It definitely cools off at night and in cooler months. They've made a lot of updates and small renovations, but the AC not so much. They have so cool themed nights like goth night via Club Caelum, drag events, drag race viewing Fridays, go-go dancing nights, competitions, Sunday BBQ and more. Come to the West Valley's only gay bar to make new friends and of course "C" frenz.

There were good times for sure but the bar, especially prior to covid was always dominated by cliques which did not make it an inclusive atmosphere for all...& many people stopped going. At one point it was very high school with a mean girl vibe. It's sad that with karaoke & the VR room (that was shut down) the vibe seemed way more inclusive in the last 3 years. I wish there could be another West Valley bar that is inclusive for EVERYBODY & not dominated by cliques that seem to think they can take over. Just my thoughts. M.

Just after lunch and looking for something to do, this place sounded good. Plus we were in the neighborhood. The other times I've been it was alway fun so today we were hopping to continue the fun. Well it did just that. First off, it was quite mellow when we walked in at the bar area. There were a few people while we were ordering. Bartenders was quite sweet. Remembered us from the last time which was nice. To our surprise, it happened to be Bingo that afternoon. Clearly none of us knew anything about it but hey, let's play bingo. The best part, it was free. Everything was supplied for you. Grab your games and dabber and go to town. The hostess with the mostess was amazing. She made the game more interesting. Maybe half an hour to it, the place picked up a lot. Pretty much people kept joining in with the games. Our group did win some rounds which was pretty cool. Prizes were a bit all over the place. A table which you choose what you want. Things rang from pillows, candies, sweets, to some intimate pieces...Lol.... It was hilarious. There was a few intermission for a little performance from the hostess. Lip sync for your life with some tips in hand. It was a fun afternoon not expecting anything. I think there's something that happens every now and then. Not sure what the schedule is like but we happened to stop by on a fun afternoon. Cheap drinks, free bingo and friendly crowd. What more can you ask for. Definitely will be back.

Maybe don't be so entitled next time and you can get even more than a 50% tip with good service. Do better on a Monday night when business is already slow as it is.

I introduced myself to 3 completely separate friend groups, 2 outside at the patio and 1 inside, who all told me that this bar was not a place for people like me and that I needed to leave. This was March 14, 2026. Coming from Houston, and being used to the Latino bars there, and working in them, I did not expect to be treated like I was not welcome in Los Angeles. To be clear, the only thing asked was "I've never been here before. What's your name and is there anything I should know about the atmosphere?". I was met with so much hostility, I recommend the bar close permanently. If you cannot control your clientele's hated, you deserve to shutter. Never in my life have I felt unsafe in a queer bar, attacked by my own people, until tonight. I highly suggest anywhere but here.

I wouldn't use the term dive bar here because it's more classy and well put together to be the traditional visage of 'dive bar'; despite being hidden in plain site. Also, the menu is vastly different than any dive bar. The place has a great vibe, vintage-modern classic theme, great lighting scheme, nice patio space, and just has a great hangout vibe. The service I've received has been impeccable. ** CASH ONLY is really my only knock on it. I've never carried much cash since the advent of plastic pay and the world is increasingly cashless.
