Nice looking bar/club in the gay area of Long Beach, but it was pretty quiet for a Sunday Funday evening. I'm guessing it's because the bartender is not friendly and pretty arrogant. The cocktails were good and served in glasses, not plastic cups. We went to four different bars this evening, two bad and two great; this was the worst because of the bartender. We're probably never coming back here unless there's a friendlier bartender. Just saying. read more

I feel like the only time I pop into here for a drink tends to be after dinner nearby. And this visit, it was literally that. We did pop in when it was still early so the place was pretty mellow. Even at 9pm, there was a security guard out front checking people's Id. Inside, it's a dark vibe but nice. Lots of plush comfy sofas for seating. The layout can be a tight squeeze in the seating area at the front as the sofas are pretty big and close together. Then add in the guest, it could get tight but a fun vibe. Main floor area has the bar to one side and the dance floor at the other end. The whole place does turn into a dance floor when it's fully packed. What's nice about this place, they have a nice outdoor patio. Not a lot of bars along this strip offer that which is nice. Bar area is along one side but getting a drink when it's packed can be a challenge. They always have a decent amount of bartenders on deck so that does help but with people coming from all ends trying to order, it can get a bit tricky. Dj is along the side where the dance floor is. As for our visit, Friday which around 9 was still early. The good thing about that, getting a drink was a cinch. Majority of the people were either on the patio or the front lounge. It was pretty full in the front which I think it was a group that were all together. We were there long enough for a drink give or take half an hour the most and by then, the place was pretty empty. I feel like most people tends to come around 10:30 or 11:00. Not sure if they have an entrance fee or not but certain night when they have events, the place is very lively. Then I believe you would need to purchase tickets for that. Parking situation is a major bitch as street parking is pretty sparse. Neighborhood parking is very limited as the locals know that if they move their car, say goodbye to your parking spot. So if you know the area, parking is tricky. It's a cool little bar that I used to go to when I lived down here many years ago which used to be called The Brit. Still a fun vibe. read more

Been ages since I have been to a gay bar. Figured I was in down and would check it out. Atmosphere was pumping, people dancing and having a good time. I sat at the bar and had a few Jack and cokes, they were made perfectly. The bartenders were very friendly and kind, handsome too. Would stop in here again next time I'm in Long Beach. read more

Men's Room Bar - Jack & Coke - Gay Bars Near Me - Long Beach, California

Such a fun night out here! There's a good balance of comfortable seating, hight tops and dance floor. It was a great spot to dance your booty off. The decor consists of all types of Men's restroom signs, colorful ceiling lights and a fun disco ball. Service was swift. They didn't have food but the drinks were simple and served. There's a great taco tent just outside read more

Although I was sad to see The Brit leave, I'm so happy to see Men's Room arrive! I have to give credit to the Men's Room folks because every aspect of this bar is thoughtful and well done. The drinks are innovative but if you're like I am, you can enjoy a basic cocktail as well. The decor and service provided by top notch bartenders is spot on and the presence of this new bar, unexpectedly elevates the entire gayborhood in a way that was very necessary. I honestly didn't realize that our Long Beach LGBT+ community was missing an upscale bar like WeHo, Hillcrest, Palm Springs, etc and now that we have it, I'm so excited to go out on a Friday night or enjoy a Sunday Funday beverage in a beautiful atmosphere. Unlike neighboring bars, this establishment actually takes cards as payments.... such a relief!Take my advice and enjoy a refreshing cold one in the patio. Lastly, about the patio, the Brit's iconic phone booth is out there as a way to pay homage to the institution that was there before. Easy 5 stars! read more

Outdoor seating, and though not a restaurant, a few taco stands setup right outside. The drink specials are phenomenal and they don't water down their drinks. Also a good note, they carry a few brands of tequila that are real and made with 100% pure agave, which is LITTYY. Great LGBT place. read more

The sound system is terrible. They are going to cause damage to so many people's ears. They should invest in some quality sound. If they don't have the budget for that, then why open at all. read more

Great new place for gay men to have of their own, the Brit was tired and empty. The new owners really did a good job with the space, some actual seating up front, patio in the back and standing room only in the middle. The design is very fun themed about men's rooms. The crowd was mostly gay men not as mixed as some of the other "queer" bars with the LGBTQIA++XYZ attention seekers. But there were a couple woman there. One male dancer, not my type but at least just men and not pretending to be a everything for everyone like the Abby. read more

This bar is all about the DJ and her crew. Popular song, clear the dance floor as they have a dance prepared and you are in the way. I want to like this place so much, but it's not for me, it for them. read more

I have been to the men's room several times since its opened and have always had a good time. They did a really good job with the upgrades and I love how they still have the phone booth from the Brit (the bar it was previously). The bartenders have all been friendly and drinks are good. It can get really crowded on the weekends and for pride there were just so many people everywhere that I actually ended up having a panic attack in the front corner of the bar (which was so embarrassing) Peter who was working must have noticed something was wrong and he came over to check on me and was able to calm me down and got me to a spot with air conditioning blowing and brought me water. I felt safe thanks to him. I haven't had a panic attack in public in a very long time so being around so many people in a new space was extra scary. So if Peter reads this, thank you again. read more

On our day trip to long beach my husband kept saying he needed to go to the men's room and brought me here. Not what I expected but the drinks were cheap and my husband seemed to be making friends easily so I can not complain. 5 stars. read more

Nice atmosphere, friendly and engaging bartenders, premium drinks are good, and overall good vibes on most occasions I have been there. A special shout out to bartenders, Art and David. read more

Decided to stop in during "Sunday Funday" and on a positive note, I really like the decor and how they refurbished the place; however, it left little to be desired otherwise. I felt the cocktails were very expensive even for their "happy hour" specials and we a round of top shelf and it was ridiculous. The smoke from the patio also comes in and the bartenders on duty weren't the friendliest. One round and we were outta there. Might try it another time to give it a fair assessment. read more

As a straight woman who calls The Broadway Bar my home base, I'm no stranger to LGBTQ+ spaces and have always felt comfortable and welcome. So when a new gay bar opened in Long Beach, I was excited to check it out, especially during its opening weekend. This spot brands itself as exclusively for gay men--and it really leans into that identity. The décor? Let's just say there's no mistaking the theme: walls filled with images of sexual acts between men, and penis art everywhere you look. While I'm open-minded, I have to admit it felt a bit much and, frankly, a little disconcerting at times. That said, the overall vibe was fantastic. The place was packed, the crowd was fun, and everyone--from patrons to bartenders--was super chill. The drinks were solid across the board, but one bartender truly stood out. He was tall, big, absolutely gorgeous, with a knockout smile (chipped tooth and all) and an attentive, friendly attitude. Oh--and his margaritas? Next level. Honestly, I wish he were behind the bar more often! I think his name was Eric? If you're looking for a spot that unapologetically caters to gay men with a bold (and I do mean bold) aesthetic, this bar will be your jam. I might swing by again--if only for that fine ass bartender and his killer margaritas! read more

Im sorry, this bar has a weird vibe, it feels out of place. The bartender that was serving as clearly annoyed by the fact that we had ordered a Moscow mule but didn't have the stuff to make it . read more

Extremely Disappointed This was my first time visiting since the change in ownership. My friend had previously raved about this place, so I was genuinely excited to check it out. Unfortunately, our experience was completely ruined by an overbearing, rude, and power-tripping security guard. First, while we were outside on the public sidewalk having a smoke, not near the entrance, not bothering anyone the security guard came out and demanded we move further away as if he owns the sidewalk. We didn't argue, we simply apologized and moved. Later, my friend went to use the restroom. Mind you, it was loud and busy, and she was in there for less than five minutes, she's a woman and needed a moment of privacy. While inside, someone started banging on the door. She gave a knock back to indicate it was occupied. The next thing we know, this same security guard is trying to throw her out for, and I quote, "taking too long." She wasn't being disrespectful. She didn't cause a scene. But the way she was treated was completely uncalled for. It was humiliating and aggressive. When we asked for a manager, she was allowed to stay but the damage was already done. The energy was ruined, and my friend literally cried when the security stepped away. That's how deeply uncomfortable and targeted she felt. This man is on a complete power trip trying to control public space and policing how long someone uses a restroom. It was outrageous. No one deserves to be treated that way when they've done nothing wrong. If this is the new standard of hospitality here, count me out. You've lost a customer, and I'll be making sure others hear about this too. read more

Love this new bar on the Broadway! Probably the nicest one, interior & decor are a class above the rest... I like how they have cocktails too with infused flavors, something different and unique! Service was great, thanks David for being the best bartender! read more

I heard that there was a new gay bar in town. Went the opening night and had a really good time. Parking can be an issue in that part of town. So, I decided to go back on a Tuesday night. Although the bartenders on the weekend were great, I have to say that "Will" that was working that night was AMAZING. First, it's nice to see a good-looking bartender, but he was really nice to talk to. He made everyone feel like they were important. This maybe my new haunt mid-week. The bar itself is fun. Nice to have a bar that takes credit cards and apple pay. I don't like seeing a service fee for the use of credit. The ambience has a good vibe, fun decor, and an outside patio. It's great to have another safe space for our community to enjoy. Will, you're awesome. Thanks for the great service! read more

This is a fun place to hang out. The bartenders are nice and happy to give you ideas for new drinks or make your regular favorite. The front area is quieter and has nice couches so you can hang out, and the back patio lets you get outside without leaving the bar. Their restrooms are cute as hell. I've included a picture from one of them but you should definitely check them out for yourself. It's fun to see they don't take themselves too seriously. I'm excited to see how they do and can't wait to visit again. read more

Don't get me wrong, this was the gayest bar I've gone too (that's a good thing!) It felt really awesome to be in an openly gay safe space with really funny, cool pieces of metal. Especially to have gone during pride month, this could be a great place to come to embrace that. Honestly what killed it for me was the giant crack in my glass cup and how it was handled. As someone who works with food safety practices, I would know it's a hazard to have a crack in a glass. But the bald guy who was bartending [who was lowkey a d**k] put my broken glass cup to wash and served it to someone else after he gave me a new glass cup. I know it was silly, but truly doesn't give af about safety is wild. just like the name 'Men's Room' -- this place is s**t :) read more

My friend Sam Harter told me about the men's room bar. And frankly, I was a little disappointed. To be completely honest, there were more women there then I would have liked. As a man who's married to a nagging fucking wife. It's always good to find a place where guys can be guys. Chatting, hanging, wrestling, -- hell, even pissing together at the trough. If anyone knows a cool sports bar for men only hit me up. God, knows I need it. Fuck. Here comes my wife now. gotta go. lol read more

last night, the white bartender around 9 o'clock at night was a complete prick to us cause we had some to go food that we couldn't get rid of, and when we walked in. He yelled in front of everybody that we couldnt bring in food, even though we explained to him that we were not gonna eat it there we were just not gonna throw it away. It was to go, i'm a regular customer there and I'm appalled by the way he behaved and how he embarrassed stuff in front of everybody so not cool!! read more

This looks like it's going to be a nice revival of the Britt. There's not going to be any parking as was the case before as far as I can tell. But they're doing good work in the interior. There's going to be some trendy home goods type lounge chairs and stuff like that inside from what I can see and there are potentially granite counters and nice cabinets. It has a bit of a dark interior. Should be a nice place to get a drink. read more

First time here tonight and all I have to say is OMG! I'm glad that LB decided to change something such as the Brit into a fun and alive place such as Men's Room. Everything about this place was AMAZING: the drinks, entertainment, even the guy at the door was friendly. Normally, when I strike up a conversation with one of these guys, they are annoyed or don't want to be bothered, but this guy was engaged in conversation that he actually took the time to introduce himself, something you don't often come across when dealing with bouncers or people at the door. Will be sure to make another trip here sometime before the end of the year. Keep up the great work Men's Room! read more

I was involved with an incident with your bartender michael. He got mad at me because i did not tip him after buying a drink. He exclaimed after i bought the drink in front of everyone "Learn how to tip your f---ng bartenders dude what the f---. why are you here?" I asked him who the f he was talking to. Then we went back and forth for like 10 seconds. Yes he has a point i can do better with tipping. However, its unprofessional and not his place to put me on the spot like that. He then told me to get the f out after i bought my drink. I told him im staying right fucking here until i finish it. One of his cognitively declined friends ofc wanted to play superhero claiming i was starting problems yet couldnt answer how and how it started, interesting. While she is talking to me he grabs my drink and puts it on another table and physically attempts to grab me which led me to push him. I didnt even get a chance to finish my drink neither. By the way i am not sure if this situation stemmed from having a bad day or rejecting a threesome with him and his boyfriend. Not sure. read more
