Came to celebrate my birthday here last night with a few friends. I loved the music and every song that came on I just HAD to dance. Shoes were off in 20 minutes and I was already up on stage by my third drink(the drinks were a bit strong). There was also only one bartender. Really?! They stayed true to their word and I was let in for free but the friends that came in after 9:30 had to pay $10.00. YIKES...That's a lot for a place that is more of a bar then a full blown club. The bathroom situation was pretty bad. LONG line to use it but that's the issue any place you go. The mens bathroom door was open so you could see when they were peeing even if you were trying not too. All in all I had a ton of fun and my only true gripe was the unbearable heat in this place. I would def come back for the music. read more

Would give it 5 stars but the short guy that picks up bottles wearing a neon color long sleeve ruined my night there. Dude literally came up to me and told me "I seen you piss on the floor..." like wtf!! Just because I was tying my shoes near where someone spilled beer at? No man, that was rude of him to accuse me of doing that... like why the hell would I go piss on the floor? He even told staff that I did so a security guard came to look at the spot and a bartender as well... made me feel very uncomfortable... read more

As you walked in, the place is dark. The place needs to be renovated. The drink's are a bit pricey. But after a few it wont matter. I give it 4 stars for the music. Two dance floors. One with old school 80s. Second floor rock en espanol. read more

Went for a friends birthday tonight and when we pulled up there was no parking. We had to park a little bit further down and they were charging for parking... $5. We get there at it's a $10 cover... get to the bar & it's cash only. It felt like I kept striking out... We go in and it's ssoooooooooo packed. Like we couldn't even walk in. The bartender looked so frustrated cause it was so busy and the guy next to me kept yelling his drink orders at her when clearly It wasn't his turn and she was super busy. I waited about 10-15 to finally have my drinks in front of me. She said she discounted me $1 since we had to wait so long. I'll take it. Lol but her energy was just so annoyed that it leaked on to me haha. The restrooms were small. Of course, out of toilet paper and paper towels after 12am. The drinks were weak. I had about 5 drinks and I wasn't even buzzed. The captain and diets were mostly soda I'm guessing. After 1am they started playing Spanish music instead which I personally loved but everyone started leaving around that time. It was cool, but the music was sooooooo loud there was no way you could have a conversation unless you were yelling at them, it was too crowded and hot. & it's not nice enough to have a cover charge. I'll pass on returning. It wasn't that great and it was outdated. read more

I came to enjoy 80's music and that part was great but honestly the drinks aren't good. They're either too sweet or don't even taste like what they're supposed to taste like. I always order a Whiskey sour at any establishment I go to and it tasted like lemonade here. My brother went to the bar and asked for water and they charged him for bottled water when he asked for ice water which should be free. Then 15 minutes later I went and asked for water and I got ice water. My party returned 2 drinks and they were still too sweet after we got them back. OH and if you want ice water after 12 don't even think about it. They only serve bottled water after 12. THREE DOLLARS for each bottled water. As if they don't want their customers to sober up. read more

Sucks that you have to pay $10 cover charge and pay CASH for your drinks. The place needs renovations then perhaps the cover charge would be justified. We had a big group and everyone was trying to figure out who's drink was who's. Like wth, I wanted to leave an open tab. Their loss. I won't be coming back. The inconvenience was not worth it. Parking sucks too. The Poor waitress getting money out of her boobs when we paid. Blah!!! Go elsewhere!!! read more

So this bar slash club thing was a bit weird. 10 cover first of all, and the drinks aren't really cheap. 7 to 8 bucks, with an older white couple working the bar. Its an older crowd, but I came with my mom so she could get drunk with her friends.. haha Music was suprisingly good, but be aware, the ventelation system is poor, one industrial fan to keep the place cool. Parking was free at least. Trying to look at the brite side of things tonight as I write this at the bar. Pretty packed for a hole in the wall. Lots of people dancing, but I'm ready to go home! read more

Good music and good atmosphere. First room all 80's music e.g newave,darkwave, pop,etc.. second room is just a little bit of everything and just right: rock en español, cumbia,merengue, norteñas, etc. Cash only, no dress code enforced. Parking is right next to jack in the box and just walk over entrance. read more

This place is a disappointment, first of all they have no where to park they tell you to park across the Street so you have to park then cross a very busy Dangerous street hoping you don't get hit by a car . Then they charge $10 bucks to get in , they have nothing on draft , it smells , back room has no air flow it was hot and muggy the list goes on . read more

Fire the DJ tonight in-the front room. Your set was booboo. 5 stars to all the other workers . Pandora rips a better set a FYI . read more

This place is horrible. Our experience was terrible. We were here Friday the 6th of august ... I arrived 8:30pm ish and parked behind their shady building only to be asked to move. My friends arrived after , to find out they had closed off the same entrance I went through. We were asked by the entire building to park/move across the street. The "owner" Peggy/Patty whom came off rude, was generous enough to let us inside for free for the confusion. Saying "that's $50" it's not about the money bro. Your arrogant attitude wasn't worth it. The night sucked, we felt unwelcome , I kept being harassed about not parking in the back, bouncer asking me if my car was still there. But they allow staff to park behind? Mind you, the owner clearly said they "monitor parking" because they have tenants living upstairs with all the music playing? But they allow staff to park and occupy the tenants' parking? Makes no sense!!! Drinks sucked, music sucked. . At this point we took our business elsewhere. Shitty service , micromanagement to the max. I feel bad for their employees. Never ever coming back here. Anyone know if any other 80's flashback bars? Hit me read more

Loved this place.... prices are very reasonable. its CASH ONLY which i dont mind plus they do have an atm inside which is a plus. great music 2 dance floors. ine was playing pure 80s and the other playing Spanish. read more

Bartenders are sweet and generous with the alcohol. Totally worth it! And music is on point! Good for a casual night out dancing. $10 cover charge (we arrived at about 11pm). $8 and up cocktails read more

Parking is two buildings away in a sketchy dark parking lot. Music is good but repetitive. Two rooms, two dance floors, two bartenders(not really but slow service). Smoking patio with big tables, cool environment. Overall I would return, not the worst place but not the best. read more

A year later and the bartender in the back is still disgusting. My friend ordered soda and the bartender got angry and as my friend turned around, this bartender was putting her dirty fingers in my friend's drink. My friend noticed and said she wasn't going to take that drink, and the old hag swung her wet hand and told her to f- off. Makes me wonder what this woman does to other people's drinks. Yikes. read more

Greatest 80s club I have ever been to. Chill vibe & huge parking lot! (that I know of) is the only 80s club with 2 dance floors. room 1: is 80s music (depeche mode, the smiths, the cure & new wave) room 2: is rock en español.... Its nice and dark, has more of a gothic feel to it the one in fullerton its too bright and never has parking & Of all the 80s clubs in so-cal this is the best hands down! ....dont listen to the negative reviews, if u like 80s music but this the fullerton 80s club is too bright & u want a darker more gothic vibe than "Hully gully" (80s club addiction) is perfect for u. read more

Been here a handful of times before, and after the remodeling, so I figured I would give my 2 cents on this place. If you are like me, and love 80s new wave, and Rock en Espanol, then this is definately a place you want to check out. They have 2 dance floors, 2 bars, an outdoor patio, and plenty of tables to chill. There is a $10 cover charge, drinks are resoanable priced, and have a wide selection. They also have some specialty 80s drink, I would recommend the Depeche Mode, but drink it at your own risk Lol. Parking is free, and plenty. A couple minor negatives. For the ladies, I would recommend going number 1, or number 2 before leaving home, the bathrooms are pretty small, and on nights where it gets pretty packed, you might be waiting in line for a while. Also remember to bring cash, as this place is cash only, which kinda sucks, but what can you do. So in conclusion, do yourself a favor, and check out the Hully Gully for an awesome night out !!! read more

Pros. Good music Cons 10$ to get in and 7$ for coors lights is a no no. Also they need better younger staff bartenders servers read more

WHY ARE THEY TORTURING US??? So I absolutely love this place... Great music and good drinks... A little hole in the wall that definitely needed some remodeling but you look past it because you end up having such a great time... Only bad thing is that they are currently remodeling it and it's been closed for months!!! How I miss the gully!! The new wave bar cannot compare... Please open soon!! Im getting tired of watching tv every Friday and Saturday night... read more

Okay, i had mixed feelings about this place, for one the cover charge, $10 seemed a bit steep for the atmosphere, the drinks are pretty standard price, its murky, its hot in there, and it seems like a place for the socially awkward. Okay so the positive side of it, well its a place for the socially awkward, just normal people coming in to dance the work shift off, its dark its dim, not one freak'n hipster among the crowd *gets little gold star for that*, the dj wasnt bad, wasnt great but wasnt bad. It was pretty empty, and seemed to be little groups of regulars that stick to themselves. All in all, barfly enough for me... I guess what it made me realize is i'm tired of the whack ass Hollywood "scene" over run by hipster scum, or people walking around with "i'm in the in crowd" kinda attitude, all of those people could shove their "A-list" wannabe attitudes right up their ass. This place is certified for the Mutants of Table 9. read more

This place is terrible. Where do I start? The Hully Gully has a $10 cover charge which is WAY overpriced for a shit-hole dive bar in the middle of nowhere. This place is really ugly and dirty. The floors and carpet look like they are 100 years old. They are also covered with gum. The entire decor is just raunchy and beat down. And yes this place is located in the bottom level of an apartment. Drinks are way overpriced. $4 dollars for a PBR in a dive bar? You have got to be kidding me. The music is okay, typical 80's stuff. The DJ's are terrible. It's not uncommon to hear the same song three times in a night there. Who does that? I mean really. Playing the same song three times in one night. This place was also very empty (I understand why). I got there a bit early, so I figured the crowd would roll in a little later. I ended up leaving at 12:30 and it was still completely dead. Overall, cover and drinks are overprices, the place is gross and ugly, music is repetitive and the scene was dead. Enough said. read more

Cons -Cash only -$10 cover charge just to get in - Drinks are $$$$$ - DJ in room one does not play good music. He ruins the 80s songs he plays with remix versions. I tried to dance but the remixes were so bad the songs were usually cut off mid song - Not many people show up PROS - If you like a dark place to dance and drink your heart out, this does the job -Rock en Espanol DJ in room 2 is way better - Friendly staff & security - Close by, better alternative to DTLA clubs distance wise - Cool 80s wall decor - Good bathrooms - Good seating Advice to the venue - Improve room 1 music - Lower the cover to $5 - Advertise your drinks - Throw themed nights and advertise it on social media - Add karaoke nights Overall I like this place and will continue to come here read more

I love a good 80's club and I've been to the Hully Gully many time throughout the past few years. Always a fun time with chill people and cool atmosphere. I absolutely love Friday nights because it's Spanish rock vs. 80's...awesome!!!!! -Plenty of free parking -Free entry or $10 max -2 rooms -Big outdoor patio -Fun 80's named drinks -Cheap drinks -Cool security -Good DJ's -Late night eats right next door (JITB) Sometimes it's nice to stray from the pretentious Hollywood scene and enjoy a fun 80's night! read more

Ive been here maybe around 5 times, why 3 stars you ask well lets see. If you like rockabilly bar with lots of Morrissey, smiths, 80s stuff, this is the bar for you. I attend here because its alot closer then hollwood. and cheaper too. 2 dance floors , one for 80's ( Morrissey, Depeche Mode, Smiths, Joy Division stuff) and the other for electroclash dance music. Its very nice atmosphere but a little small and gets kinda hot as well. No AC, just fans. Ladies if your looking for attention ( regardless of Size, Ethnicity, or overall lack of Facial appeal) this is for you. One thing you will notice, attention from the fellows like if they saw a pair of boobs attached to legs with a short skirt. Not Creepy stares either, its flattering for most girls there from what they tell me. Its a good night of dancing in a good club, not exactly a humungous " Beat it, or Clockwork type club, but if you just wanna dance, this is good enough. read more

This place is amazing! I highly recommend going on Friday nights for rock en espanol vs 80s nights (in room 2) i was kinda feeling the main room where its only 80s music... But, i was feeling room 2 even more where there's literally rock en espanol, 80s US/UK Rock, Pop, New Wave, Indie; then out of nowhere some:Cumbia, Merengue, some Salsa, Reggaeton, and that's pretty much it! So it's a variety of genres in room 2. Just in case you're in the mood for a bit something different and/or perhaps during the moment you go and grab a few different Madonna or ghost buster drinks. The vibe and people scenes in this club are mostly older folks of different ethnicities whites and latinos mostly 30s-40s, in the main room mostly. Then in room 2 there's more Latinos: Greasers, hipsters, older and young people. Not strict with any dress code AT ALL! Which is great. So all is welcome here. The drinks they have are mainly what's on the "80s" menu. They don't do regular bar name drinks. (i.e. BahamaMama, bloody Mary, etc.) Then the people who work the bartender could use some better appearing people... What i mean is that they got this one guy who was cool, older looking...but he's a cool dude. But in room 2, they've got these ladies who are all old, dressed in sweats, faded random colored shirts, who basically look all grumpy and mean like they hate there jobs... Yeah, so i kept leaving room 2 on purpose to go to the cool dude. So my only negative things are: bartender/workers appearance (i mean come on it's an 80s nightclub! Wear at least things that represent the 80s or dress better period!), how it looks outside the club (the paint should stand out and it's under an apartment complex... Yeah... I don't know... But for some reason it reminds of a biker bar... You'll know what i mean) the inside could use some better appearance too. Like the walls look kind of crappy and looks too "bar-ish" less club-ish... And room 2 could use the same too. But what can i say, the music and environment gets the appearance part of your mind off the negative side once there's people there going crazy and dancing and when the music starts. My favorite random part of the club is where it says in room 2 above the dj "NO MOSH PITS" hahaha classic! And nice! Because if there wasn't I'd be pushing and circle pitting all night. Three only thing i did similar was 2 stepping (a hardcore dance thing). read more

Hmmm, where do I begin? Well, I've been invited here several times and always declined due to the reviews, but this past Friday (Spanish Rock vs. 80's) I gave it a shot. Mind you, I read what my fellow Yelpers had to say so I wasn't too thrilled or in a rush to get there. Before I arrived, my friend and I stopped at Stardust for a beer (I'll review that place too). So, we arrive at about 10-10:30ish on Friday night. I almost passed the place because I wasn't expecting for it be where it was, it just kind of popped out of nowhere. Anywho, there was a fairly big lot and it was free--BONUS with a few security guards roaming about. BUT because we got there past 9:30 the cover was $10 ($10 for a dive??? sheesh!) If you arrive before 9:30, cover's $5. So I part with my crispy $10 bill and give the joint a once-over. Yes, the carpet has gum stuck everywhere and there was only one bartender at the CASH-ONLY bar inside (Oh yeah, there's an ATM inside), and the dance floor was half full--this room was playing 80's music, BUT I did notice lots of tables and places to sit which was cool if you're gonna shoot-the-shit and listen to 80's music. I walked down this narrow hallway, passed the $2 coat check and veered into the notorious restroom-WOW, I held it all night, didn't wanna catch hepatitis or anything...This is not a great place to, "break the seal" if you know what I mean. So we finally enter the back room, live DJ spinning rock en Espanol, you the know, typical, Mana, Caifanes, AntiVirus...There's another 1-person staffed bar that takes cash-only ($5 for a Corona). OKAY...and there's also a billiards table. Finally, I hit the back door for some fresh air cause it was warm in there, outdoor smoking area was my favorite cause it wasn't as noisy and YOU COULD TAKE YOUR DRINKS OUTSIDE-Yes! I don't smoke but I enjoyed escaping the sweltering heat caused by the thunderous bodies swaying to "Esta luz nunca se apagara" (spanish version of "There is a light that never goes out"). All-in-all I'd go back for the low key atmosphere (before 9:30 pm of course!), no pretentious people like in Hollywood, no long lines like at Beat It!, and I noticed lots of Raza who look like regulars that just wanna enjoy music and have a good time. Wish I could give the place a 3.5 Oh and the funny/cool part is that you can text the bar and your message appears on the TV's in both rooms, so those were good conversation starters and a means to stay entertained. read more

I had a really nice time celebrating my mom's birthday here with family and friends. She had been telling me for a long time that she wanted to go to an 80s club and after some research and word of mouth, I found this one. Because of that, we were prepared with cash and ready for loud music and long restroom lines as the negative reviews warned. It was nothing of the sort. The music was at a pleasant volume and took me back to my very early childhood; the club was perfectly filled up, but the two or three times I went to the restroom I never waited in line; the ambiance was fun, the employees were all super nice. My mom had a blast even though she kept complaining that it was hot; I'm sensitive to the cold, so for me it was perfect. read more

I really want to like this place, the music is great. Really a delightful change from the normal top hits. Drinks are nicely priced, but I really wasn't digging the CASH only bit. Who doesn't take credit nowadays? I normally don't carry cash on me so it woulda been nice to know this beforehand. OMG it gets soooo hot in here too! And the bathrooms suck (only 2 stalls ladies so be sure you're prepared to wait in line or you'll be doing the pee pee dance). I didn't spend much time in the backroom but they were playing the same music they'd played in the front room 15 mins earlier. Not really much variety... My biggest gripe? $10 at the door for a place that looks more like a bar trying to be a club. Aside from the music I really don't see many redeeming qualities in this place :/ read more

I like this place! I love 80s and I was excited when I heard of this place. First time I went, I went on a Friday. It looked kinda sketchy at first because they had dirty carpet floors. They also had pool tables which I thought was pretty cool. I spent the night on the second dance floor. They have two dance floors. One plays ONLY 80s music and the second floor plays a mixture of 80s and Rock en Español (Spanish Rock). The second time I came was on a Saturday. They did not have the carpet nor the pool tables. Which meant more room for tables and chairs. I really enjoyed the music. And you see a different variety of people. People in their 20s, late 20s, 30s and people in their 40s. I know some people may complain about the crowd but I don't mind as long as they play good music to dance to! I only go for the music!! Cover charge I believe is $5 before 10 p.m. and $10 after 10:00 p.m. Drinks, I wouldn't know how much they are since I don't drink. Water is expensive, I'll tell you that. $7 for a WATER BOTTLE! Should of just bought me a drink! LOL. It gets pretty hot in there too!. read more

This is a review (more like info) for Saturday night, when they have 80's dance party. -They have two medium dance floors and two bars. -They played 80's music in both dance floors, but in one I think they were playing Rock en Espanol, also, but I'm not sure 'cause I hardly went there. -I had an AMF and a jager bomb, both were $9 each. -Parking: I don't think they have their own lot (at least I didn't see one) but everyone seemed to park in an LAUSD office building lot that is directly next to it (which is free). -It was $5 entry before 9:30pm and $10 after that. -They serve food all night, but I didn't have anything so can't tell you how good it is. -There's plenty of seating. -They had a huge fan directly in front of one of the dance floors so it kept everyone cool. I don't think there was one in the dance floor more towards the back. I remember going back there thinking it was really hot so I went back to the other one. -They have an outside area towards the back. -Coat check is $2 -The people were mostly late 20s early 30's type of crowd. Everyone dressed VERY casual. I don't think they have a dress code 'cause there were some girls wearing jeans and sneakers. A FEW CONS: -The drinks were really watered down, to me. -The girls bathroom was so dirty! It was really gross. I gave this place 4 stars, however, because they had a really really great selection of music, and that's what mostly matters to me. I danced all night! I think I only sat down once, for less than five minutes before I heard another song I loved, that I just had to dance to. So, yes, I'll definitely be coming again. :) read more

Friend recommended this place. 1/3/14 So why not?! HA! Like you have read already, cash only! Good thing I yelped before going. They do have an ATM on location. Plenty of parking, drinks nice and strong. This place has no dress code whatsoever. So kudos! Like to just kick back and chill, Arrived at 10pm. Place was dead. Easy to find a table. 11pm comes around. And wow! Both rooms are cracking! Place is dirty, so it attracts dirty people. Lots of Older people in their late 30's-40's. And Gorditas everywhere. Lol Not bad for a kick back place. I wouldn't go back. Not my style. read more

Love the HG! They have 2 rooms playing Spanish Rock and the other New Wave 80's. It does look like an old spooky motel lobby w/carpeted floors but the music is AMAZING! After a few drinks you won't even notice. They did recently upgrade a bit. They fixed the AC so it's tolerable. For the most part there is always some place to sit since people are constantly going back and forth between both rooms. Always have a good time at the HG! read more

LOVE 80s MUSIC?? come here lol its an older crowd.. but idc i still have a good time there. music is great.. drinks are pretty cheap compared to other bars.. the bartenders and the waitresses are pretty ancient. but are super nice and take care of everyone in a timely manner. so i cant complain the vibes are chill.. so if you want to go in a big group. you will forsure have fun. read more

This place is pretty ghetto. It can be fun. It's also a bit gross. Bathrooms are atrocious. Everything is overpriced. They charge you ten dollars to come in and it's kind of a shithole. When someone farts the whole club smells it. Drinks overpriced and sucks too. I think someone actually lives at the top of this building. Still, it can be fun. read more

This place is awful. 10 dollars at the door to start it off. Expecting a full bar but they don't. Beer is 4 to 5 dollars and they are limited to mixed drinks. Music is good and they also serve food which I feel is over priced. Not that I'm cheap or anything but if you think about it, you're going to be paying 5 dollars for a Shocktop. Do yourself a favor and go to the Anarchy Library, entrance is FREE, it's only down the street from this placd and they have a large selection of 2 dollar beers. Shocktop being one of them. CASH ONLY! they have an ATM but with a $3.00 service fee. read more

One thing about the restroom...held one hand on the bathroom door to keep it closed, while the other one pulled down my tights. ENOUGH SAID. After reading all the reviews, I decided to come without any expectations. Came for a friend of a friend's birthday. I was hesitant, but went anyhow because I had not seen my friend in forever and a day. Go without any expectations. If you're in good company, and you like mainstream 80's, you should be alright... I guess. Oh, and some of the men are on the prowl. One had the audacity to grab my wrist, and firmly at that, to try to get me to dance....EHHHHH. But, the nachos were good. read more

OK. Been here 3 times. I'm an 80's kid and there are a lot of flashbacks available here. Pros include good parking, progressively better music as the night goes on (they always save the good stuff for later at night when place is more full, we got in early to try and avoid the cover and had to play "name that tune" with the mute Video clips montage-ing on the TV screen for a couple hours), two rooms: Spanish Rock and High energy mixed in the back are great, decent drink prices, and a non pretentious atmosphere co-created by the attendees. Cons definitely include Food (trust me, go and eat something yo' momma made for you back in the day to re-live 1987 before arrival, and after you leave, go get some street tacos cuz the food here sucks and it'll take them like 30 minutes to cook your food and then a bunch more minutes to let it get cold before they bring it to you with an excuse), the second rate wait staff, illiterate people spilling drinks on dance floor in front of signs that say No Drinks on Dance Floor, and DJs who are too stubborn to change their song when one they play clears the floor. You can RSVP for a table to be set aside. Party on Yelpers! read more

A great dive bar, music is excellent and the people are very chill. If u come here and don't like the music, there's something wrong with u or ur mental age is under 21 and don't know what good music is. I wish this place was open more than just two nights a week. 80's music, rock and Español, what's there not to like. read more

The dance came out in the 1960s HOWEVER in the late 1980's and early 1990's a group of a fencing team I was in, would dance the HULLY GULLY in the parking lot of the Round Table Pizza parlor in Long Beach, CA. People thought we were part of a film casting! LOL Come on back, HULLY GULLY.... we may have to throw our walkers to the side, but betcha we can still do it!! read more

I have been here twice and I do plan to go again. What the Hully Gully lacks with security they make up for it with the good music, great friendly staff and the yummy appetizers. My friends and sister had always told me that I would love it so I took a chance by celebrating my birthday there this past February. I called in advance to reserve some tables and it was just the simplest thing in the world. He even offered to set up more tables the day off if needed. The music was awesome as I am an eighties girl and I heart Morrissey. The waitress kept the drinks coming at a speedy pace and the kitchen stays open late so my friends were able to order appetizers. The room in the back has one lonely pool table but endless Spanish rock from the eighties as well. You can dress down or dress up it really doesn't matter because the place is just so chill. Everyone I came across was pretty friendly and didn't look menacing. Both dance floors were always packed with dancers which is always a good sign. Some downers would be the small restroom that should be checked for cleanliness a few times during the night, they should search people coming in as you never know what a person might carry and they need a credit card machine as they only accept cash! They have an ATM but that is such a hassle. Overall, the place is laid back and cheap so mixed in with good music, you really can't go wrong. If you get there before 9:30 it's only 5 bucks to get in. read more
