This place is a hidden total gem. Tiny, no-frills, and absolutely perfect. Great vibes, strong pours, and the kind of crowd that actually talks to each other. The bartender knew what she was doing and don't overthink it--just solid drinks, good music, and a laid-back atmosphere that makes you want to stay longer than planned. If you like hidden spots with personality, this bar delivers. Just right for the night, cheers amigos read more

Milo's Place is that classic local hole-in-the-wall bar you didn't know you needed. The bartenders are super friendly and make you feel right at home the second you walk in. The music is always a great mix... think the kind of tunes that just set the vibe and make you want to stick around a little longer. The standout here? Hands down the *cheesecake shot*. I swear, it legit tastes like you just bit into a slice of cheesecake. It's a must-try and one of those things you'll be telling your friends about after. Whether you're here to play some games (make sure to try a game called Kollide...SUPER FUN), sip on cocktails, or just chill with your crew, Milo's Place nails that laid-back, good-times energy. This place has actually become my low-key happy place whenever I'm in the area. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in Whittier. read more

Milo's is our go to bar in our area. It has the best ambiance, the best prices, and the most amazing staff. Roberta and Lonnie are amazing people that truly care about their customers and make it a point to get to know everybody who walks through their doors. Make sure to stop by for a drink and some incredible conversations with Roberta and Lonnie! read more

Milos!!!! The perfect neighborhood watering hole for all who want to hang, chat, have a few drinks in a friendly and mellow environment. I'm seeing reviews about the workers being rude, strict, etc..... I've only heard of or seen very rowdy, unruly patrons get booted. It's not a rowdy place... so don't go in acting a fool. Be friendly and respectful- don't scream or bang on the bar (as I've seen people do). I love coming here. The crowd is diverse- young, old, middle, blue collar, white collar... and the jukebox is just as diverse!!!!! It's the ideal chill, neighborhood spot... The regulars would agree! read more

If we could give them a zero, we definitely would! Racist place, say other wise, but I've been around this type of atmosphere a few times in my life. Female bartender told us it was the last round she was serving us (group of 7) because we all went outside to smoke. What a joke! We immediately asked for a refund and took our money elsewhere. Won't be going back there again!! Sad that your prejudice seeps through your actions and how you speak to us!! read more

Won't be wasting my money here again. Roberta is just flat out rude and disrespectful. Last night she decided to stay a little later and serve my two male friends, when I asked her if I could get my drink too she started slamming things around. I asked if she was ok and she just completely flipped out on me. I definitely don't need to be screamed at or to feel like I'm begging for drinks , I'm a paying customer. She threw my $15 tip back at me. Also God forbid you play your own music and have a good time, she'll get irritated. She has a bad attitude, is a hostile person and will definitely make you feel uncomfortable - also God forbid you leave your glass off of the coaster. Spend your money elsewhere. Lonnie is nicer but it's a family owned business. Thanks but no thanks. read more

Good friendly service with good drink prices. Nice clean bar with lots of televisions showing sports or whatever you choose and a jukebox.

My favorite place in town. If you're not at Milos then where are you really? Place is even better with the recent upgrades! read more

I feel that they will be closing this place soon I miss the old Milo's Lanny or whatever his name is sometimes pleasant and sometimes the rudest person. The drinks are okay just the vibe is so different now. read more

I really liked this bar really enjoyed myself here, the ambiance,drinks, the people, atmosphere, i will be returning for sure :)

Awesome dive bar , the bartender are the best . Cold beer good music on the jukebox, does not get any better.. it's a must everyone is super friendly. read more

I have been coming here for years, it's been a moment but it's never a let down. Roberta and Lonnie are very hospitable and attentive. Your must try dive bar! read more

I went back and the ignorant mother and son are still there... just to confirm ran into a bunch of people at a bar and started mentioning Milo's place. Everybody had the same experience I had you can't talk to girls if you're a man you can't talk to guys if you're a girl or else they'll kick you out. Don't try to go there and have a good time. You will not have the time of your life. read more

Pretty cool spot to go and relax from a long day it's not rowdy or crazy in there and the bartender is pretty chill :) I order margaritas on the rocks they are my favorites. read more

Love coming here. The owner and her son are great people. Always make us feel welcomed. Great people and music is always great. Recommend this spot if you want to have a drink and relax with cool people. read more

It's a community bar that's attended by locals. I'm one of them and it's a great place to have a drink where you are not surrounded by hipsters or annoying people. It's just a cool spot to have regular price drinks without the young annoying crowd. If you want to pretend that you are kool go to silver lake (I work in that area) and pay $18.00 for a beer. read more

I love this place it close by my house and everyone working there are so Awsome drinks are not over priced friendly atmosphere so clean. I have tried other places but I end up back to Milos best place in town. read more

Milo's Place - Best place in my neighbourhood bar prices are reasonable friendly people good company always. - Bars Near Me - Whittier, California

Best bar EVER!!!!! Good vibes and nice cold beer. Owner and her son are amazing!!! Definitely recommend.

If you are looking to just relax and have a drink, then this dive bar is a great place to go. They have a fully stocked bar, give or take a few bottles. They do not have beers on tap just bottles. There are no pool tables, but they do have a few dart boards. They have a jukeboxe, they have a little bar game at one end, the one with a bunch of random games on it, and they also have keno you can play. They also have 2 tvs set up at each ends of the bar and a big screen in the open seating area. The bartenders are really cool and laid back, lonnie is the man there, comes up with some cool stuff too, I recommend you try his cheesecake shot, super good. There are alot of regulars at this bar and the age range varies from young to the older crowd and eveything in between. It is not a big place, but it is big enough. I like coming here because it has kind of a homey feel, and no one really gets too crazy. The prices are super fair and competitive or even better than alot of other places. A tip I would give is, this place is just great to go out and have a few drinks and listen to random music from the jukebox. If you are looking for more, then this place my not be for you, but I would recommend it :). read more

My favorite hole in the wall, divey bar to relax and have a beer or three. Bartenders are cool, fast, friendly. Beer is cold. Cocktails are strong. What more can you ask for? The place is small and dimly lit but clean. Many of the locals frequent this place and all of them are cool. Age group varies here. Drinking age and up. I come here often. I like it. I recommend it. read more

PART OF THE DIRTBAG RUN REVIEW SERIES: Nestled in a small secluded strip mall behind CVS Pharmacy, and behind a Golden Ox Restaurant is a little dirty gem of a bar called Milo's Place. Now as far as dive bars go, this place has no frills about it, its a jukebox, some arcade games (including a bowling game), some tv's, some stools along the full bar, and some tables littered around. The restrooms are actually a decent size and seemed clean enough. Drinks are cheap and a round for your friends won't put you off drinking. This is a local hangout, and that being said, don't expect the jetset crowd in here, unless you in a circle of friends that happen to venture in and take over half of the floor space. Oh yeah, it's kinda small, so how it could fit 50 people is beyond me. I've only ever experienced about 15-20 people in there and that was on a good night (Friday). The bartender lady is no nonsense and will not hesitate to call on help if you get out of hand, and you WILL get kicked out. The thing is though I have seen some VERY drunk people leave here at last call, and at around 1pm Saturdays while I go do laundry next door, oh yes I did get a drink while my clothes were in the wash. This is one of those spots that you may want to poke your head into if you are headed up to Slam Dunks or JT's up north, or going south to Pizzamania for a bite. All in all a decent enough dive on any given night. read more

Don't believe the review from Nicolas D. Generally most people in ANY bar at 8am is miserable. Milo's is cool. Drinks are cheap and the people are NOT all white and Republican...haha that's line was hilarious! It's diverse, low key and friendly. No haters, hipsters or posers, just good people. read more

This bar always has a young crowd which is great because from the outside you wouldn't think so. It's like a high school reunion here which is why I don't come often. The staff is nice and the place has a good amount of tables and chairs for seating. It's always packed here in but the crowd has been friendly. There has never been any fights or rowdy people which is nice in a bar to not have that. You can also picks your music to play inside too. If you have no where else to go and it's still early this is a nice place to come to have a drink. read more

For what its worth we can't complain much it is what it is.... a DIVE bar. Located at a dead end mini mall type street next to a Laundromat and a liquor store lol. Its dark, has a jukebox, old arcade, attracts a more mature crowd of locals and most importantly its clean. Its almost walking distance from my place so we had to check it out and have gone back a couple of times. Drinks are dirt cheap which is a great thing and if you show up with good company this will do the job. Only complain is the woman bartender who may be the owner was more on the rude side last time we were there. I hope she was just having a bad night. read more

Well what kind I say. First and foremost this is a dive bar. Dont come here looking for a trendy hot spot. I have been here about four times all on different days of the week. I have seen people from all different walks of life in here. Old, young, hip, trendy, gangsta. Its funny to meet and talk to so many different types of people in one place. The overall place has the feeling as if you were in someones living room. Overall im happy and will be back for the laidback atmosphere, nice bartenders that pour them heavy and of course the music box. read more

I would leave zero stars if I could. Walked in, went to the bar, held out our money, and the bartenderS and OWNER completely ignored us. Never going back again. I'll take my money elsewhere. read more

This is an awesome little dive bar! Drinks are strong and cheap. The people are always so nice and friendly, lots of regulars. Love listening to music from the jukebox too. read more

Fun crowd, clean, well kept neighborhood bar. Friendly and attentive bartender on Sunday morning. Will definitely come back.

Milo's is a cool lil bar.. Went there last night for a quick drink with friends and this place didn't disappoint. From the outside it looks iffy, but once you walk in, you see how nice it really is. We'll definitely be coming back.. thanks milo's.. read more

I have been coming here for years. It's just little hole in the wall but I have had nothing but good times here. I always see a familiar face there. Roberta and Lonnie are a couple of top notch bartnders. Great place to unwind. read more

This is a comforting place. When you have a rough, good, fair or just a little thirsty and don't want to go home kind of bar. The main Bartenders ( Lonnie & Mama) are super dope. They make you feel like family. If you're looking to start twerking, this is not your place! So STAY OUT! Or stay cuz it's entertaining for us... (actually stay) read more

Ohhhhh Miloooo'sssss! :3 The only bar I've been to in that side of Whittier. It use to be the place my friends and I would occasionally either start or end our night here because it's just a few blocks down from their street. Haven't been there in a long time, but about a month ago we decided to meet there to actually have a drink or two midday. And I can honestly say, it was nice. The locals in there are either really old or elderly and after they give you a few winks, they pretend not to care that we're there. All in all the drinks are dirt cheap, air conditioning works and the bathroom is clean so there's really nothing to complain about. What else can you really ask for from a hole in the wall bar? Thanks for the memories Milo's, I'm sure I'll be back there soon. + Cheap drinks - Parking sucks - Creeper alert read more

Ok came here because someone dragged us here. Got to admit if your looking for a hole in the wall with $4 beers and decent decor with a stench of cigarette smell thus is the place. We came after going to a place where you pay 8 bucks a beer for a pint of beer and all sort of people walking around with their noses up in the air. If you looking for a little dive bar where people don't car who and what you look like- all your 8nterested in is to have some beers, this place will do. read more

Love the owners and the mellow atmosphere at this place. Not to mention that the drinks are inexpensive.

Love this place...strong and cheap...like a old mans cologne. A Whittier Classic. Like Richard Nixon and n Rocky Cola.

When I first walked in I was skeptical. Its definitely not fancy but what do you expect in Whittier? I have come here a few times with a friend who lives close by. I often play kid cudi on the jukebox, they have a good music selection. Oh, and I also have the hots for the bartender, Loni! Xoxo!!! Besides, he really does hook it up and knows how to make about every drink there is. read more

IAwesome bar. Great customer service. Everyone's pretty friendly. And last but not least they know how to pack mixed drinks for a great price. I give it 5 stars read more

Aah yes, Milo's. I had the extreme pleasure of visting Milo's on a Wednesday evening around 11PM. It was to say the least, extra not ordinary. I don't believe I have ever drank in a bar that looked so much like a Perkins inside, but then again never judge a book by its cover..judge it by the overload of rules written on the wall! Yes I'm sure, Milo's gets that out of control that they need at least 3 signs describing how the bartender is always right, but by that time I'm sure the disruptive 60 year olds have broken their glasses in a brawl and have no intention on obeying the warning signs. All in all, I could dig it for a day drinking adventure. read more
