Sierra takes such good care of the bar and is so attentive the pizza and wings are great! Loveee

Jose is an absolute charm, he's a great bartender and really makes me feel welcomed! Stand up guy

We had an amazing night at this restaurant/nightlife spot celebrating a friend's 41st birthday. They had a DJ spinning and the house and techno music was incredible all night long. The vibe was perfect...great energy with plenty of room to dance. The cocktails were excellent, and the bartenders, Jose and Jocelyn, were incredibly attentive and helped make the night even better. Honestly, every staff member we interacted with, from the promoter to the security guard, was fantastic and contributed to such a fun welcoming atmosphere. The decor was such a fun surprise...tons of palm trees and inflatables made it feel like you were in a tropical getaway rather than just a pizza restaurant. They also had a photo booth, which added another fun touch to the night. We took a ton of pictures in it. We really appreciated the gender-neutral bathrooms and the overall safe, inclusive environment that made our whole group feel comfortable drinking, dancing, and celebrating. Parking can be rough, but as a Long Beach native I already knew that, so we chose to Uber.. We'll absolutely be making the trip back from North Orange County to visit again! read more

I had a beer and a pizza - and then after I had the pizza one server gaslit me - he wouldn't allow me to get any more drinks and when I told him I even ate a whole pizza he didn't believe me - even when literally I was right there for a while and his other staff member had brought the pizza. He said I was talking nonsense when I wasn't - I wasn't even talking much and maybe I had sang one of the famous exploitive songs of mine. It was around my 40th - I felt so annoyed I swore and left and ending up drowning my sorrows alone. read more

I ordered through Toast, and when my husband picked up the pizza, the best part was missing -- the vegan sausage. Everything else was fine, but that topping is the whole reason we order this pizza. Super disappointing to open the box at home and realize it wasn't there. read more

This place is literally magical. Such a cool vibe. Sierra is an awesome and super sweet bartender. She makes a signature drink that is absolutely to die for. She either calls it stinky pinky or pinky's up depending on who's asking lmao. She and this whole place is a vibe I highly recommend. Also best pizza in LB! read more

From the moment my fiance and I walked in for the first time during happy hour, the bartender Jose, welcomed us with such amazing energy. He really knows how to carry a great conversation. Cocktails were made well and even validated our choice on how yummy the pizza is! Overall, great ambiance, vibe and aesthetic! Will definitely be back for a night out and happy hours. SO happy we came across this spot! read more

The Hare - Pizza Near Me - Long Beach, California

From the start, it was a completely different vibe since the new ownership and in the best way! Staff greets you immediately and makes sure you're attended to. The owner is even walking around making sure everyone is doing great and is hands on with the work load. Love to see it! We ordered pizza and fried Brussels. Brussels were perfectly cooked. The spicy cowboy was a good combo of spicy and sweet. The burrata was so light and fresh. We are currently here and just now ordered more pizza !! The monthly special pizza is only available as a whole pizza and not by the slice FYI. I ordered a High Noon to start but switched over to their specialty cocktail, The Hot Honey Paloma. Phenomenal btw! Excited to come back as we just found a new local spot for our drinks and pizza !!! Come check them out! Great music too btw, lots of throwbacks from the 90s and 2000s today. Currently playing Believe by Cher full blast and it's a vibe! read more

Cute spot with great service. Sierra makes really great drinks and keeps the vibe nice. Good for a drink, a slice, and some pool.

All I can say is wow. I've never been to the Hare before but Sierra is now my new favorite bartender of all time. Not only were her suggestions valid but she was so kind and attentive. I'm new to the area and she made me feel at home. I just found my new watering hole! read more

I enjoy coming here for the cocktails and food (ESPECIALLY the pizza and wings ) but I've always found the vibe and staff to be hit or miss. The staff are friendly but definitely no-nonsense; which highlights how it's a bar that has food rather than a restaurant-type establishment. Overall I'd say a 7.5/10 - I don't mind going because of the food and drinks but the vibe makes me hesitate. It's never the first or only stop of the night but it is worth going by just to feel it out and eat. read more

Evelyn was very helpful and attentive, drinks were great, and food was awesome. Will definitely be back.

On staff and menu alone, it would be 5/5 stars. I came here a few times while I was visiting the US and they had this hilarious bartender Sierra who was just super fun to talk to and made some of the best drinks Ive had on my trip! read more

Came in for happy our. Good pricing for happy hour and fair prices normally. Jose was bartending and made some great margaritas and espresso martinis. Glad we found this gem, wish we came to check it out sooner. We'll be back for a DJ night! read more

In response to the owner - this was months ago. I did not stay. Once the bartender told me the price I just left and haven't been back.

The Hare is a wonderful addition to the gayborhood and the area overall and I'm so glad to have new business to support in the neighborhood. It replaces the historic Paradise and its more recent predecessor Black and depending on whom you ask, those are some big shoes to fill. I definitely feel like it fills those shoes well. Food here is really good but one item I've had here is EPIC. The spinach and artichoke dip is the best I've ever had. On its own the dip is great but it's further elevated by the accompanying homemade potato chips and veggies that include carrots, celery, and cucumber. I've never had any restaurant serve cucumber with this appetizer but now I I can't have it without cucumber. I've tried the pepperoni, veggie, and sausage-pesto-mushroom pizza and have been really pleased. For those watching what they eat, the antipasto salad is a good choice. Service here is great, everyone is super personable. And I'm a fan of the rewards program that also includes Long Beach institution: The Breakfast Bar. Ambiance is super chill. There's TVs throughout this spot. I'm not a football fan but appreciate that there are 5 or 6 TVs that display different games. And they do a good job of honoring the neighborhood they're in. The Hare is somewhere I will frequently visit whether it's for good grub or when I'm in need of a cold adult beverage. read more

The service by Jose was phenomenal, I would definitely stop by here again. He made sure I got a fresh slice of pizza right out the oven, the drinks were good as well. read more

I had seen a social media ad regarding this place and apparently it had been open for a while but they were just getting around to their grand opening so we decided to try it out. Upon entering, the vibe totally reminded me of Paradise (prior to Black) which was a warm welcoming. The dining area and bar area are separate and we had initially wanted to eat linner here but opted to sit at one of the high tops in the bar area. Our server greeted us immediately and we had already decided on their "weekend sangria" which they advertise on their website for Sat and Sun specials at 8.00/glass. We were hungry and wanted to order an 18" pizza; however, the high top was pretty small and we did not want to be overcrowded on space. They were having a special complimentary cheese or pepperoni pizza slice between the hours of noon to 5pm so I inquired to our server about it but she said she would have to move us into the dining area if we wanted one. I was confused because the table behind us ordered a pizza and other bar patrons at the bar counter were eating food as well as customers at another high top next to us and they had a pizza slice each (made no sense to us but it appeared that they were friends with the owner as he was conversing with them). We had three sangrias each and when we received our bill we were charged 10.00/each glass rather than the online advertised price of 8.00/each. I didn't make a fuss and figured that the owners just didn't update their website. Overall, I loved the vibe of this place as well as enjoyed the live DJ. Had it not been for the inconsistent clarification in regards to dining in with the gratis pizza as well as the incorrect pricing advertised on their website, I would have given this place five stars! Will definitely be back though. read more

Jose is amazing. Drinks are amazing. Vibes are amazing. Try the carrot espresso martini. Tastes like cake!!

When I was carded by the bartender, she looked at my ID, and then at me. Then she asked "Did you just get your wisdom teeth removed?" (In reference to my chubby face). Was it an intrusive thought? A planned personal attack? Some poorly executed joke? Regardless her intention, this was completely unacceptable and ruined my night. Please train staff to not comment on guests' physical appearance. Will not be going back. read more

I love the Har but I have to admit not all of the bartenders in the past have been great. Kale is a fave, but she doesn't seem to work on the nights I go there. Last night We were lucky enough to have Heather take care of us. The drinks were spot on and the service level was above and beyond. Super friendly and laid back. She's a real asset to the HARE! read more

So far, I'm very pleased with the restaurant-forward experience that this new, neighborhood bar provides. I'm having a glass of wine on all-day happy hour which falls on a Monday among a plethora of other specials throughout the week. My boyfriend is having a $3 beer can, but they also have $5 drafts, too. As of current, I can attest to the Wings (6) sweet vampire flavor, Spinach Artichoke Dip, & Pepperoni Pizza. I got the pizza slice for free during their Grand Opening weekend (Sept. '25) and that's when we signed up for the rewards program which has been magnificent thus far. Thanks to Josh & team for the assistance getting acquainted with this! What keeps me coming back are the good deals, neighborhood vibe, & top-notch hospitality that the Breakfast Bar group is well-known for. You'll know me as a soon-to-be regular, The Hare. And what a cheeky, whimsical decor, as well. It's safe to say that this spot is a welcomed addition to Rainbow Road, and we're happy to have them. ** Tip: free pool all day Mondays ** read more

During pride it was wonderful. So I came back the second time and it was even better. I love the atmosphere and how much space there is. I LOVE that they have kombucha especially the brand of kombucha. Service was good and definitely during the busy nights. I'll come back again. The pizza was delicious. read more

Cool bar, nice atmosphere. Good pizza. I have drove past this place plenty of times. I would like to go back for hip hop night. Drinks are a little pricey. Good customer service. read more

I used to come to this restaurant on Sundays, my days off, but the cook takes too long to bring the food out. I stopped coming on Sundays and started coming on Mondays during work break time, but it was worst, I have to rush and go back to work and waisted my time just waiting for the food. Today I decided to come and enjoy a meal, but for some bad luck the same cook is here and the same story. Had to wait almost an hour to eat. I may think twice before coming again to this restaurant if the same person is in the kitchen. The pizza is very good, I like the food here, but it's not fair to waste your time waiting for a pizza that is not cooked right and all the way when this person is in the kitchen. read more

First time here the staff were super welcoming. The drinks are great and the pizza looked great but I wasn't super hungry. I love the artwork and changes in decor from room to room. read more

Sad to see Black go. The Hare opened a couple weeks ago just in time for LB Pride to keep the party going though! Just came for drinks, which are refreshingly still set at old LB prices ($9 for a cocktail with Tito's)! Friendly service. Good vibes! I'll be back to try their pizzas and food! read more

Great, friendly atmosphere, super nice staff, excellent cocktails and yummy food - especially the pizza! And fun special events pretty regularly scheduled. read more

Came to check out The Hare tonight and I feel right at home. Super cute vibe, open concept inside. Kale is the best energy behind the bar, come check her out! They have 3 tvs by the bar and two more in the dining/pool room. They had both baseball and football on the tubes for a Thursday night, for those that are coming to watch sports. If you enjoy supporting small businesses; consider this joint for food, beverages, sports, and/or good vibes! I will definitely be back! read more

Just recently visited the Hare under the new management and had a great experience. Their blueberry sour cocktail was so delicious 10/10 recommend and their pizza of the month which was the spicy cowboy was also good! A mix of sweet and spicy. But also their music was great and no jukebox there lol overall will be visiting soon again! read more

Melissa the manager was the reason why I started coming to this bar. Her drinks and the atmosphere she made really made the place feel like a third place. Now tbh it feels like the owners are pushing the agenda that this is not an lgbtq place- in order to make straight people feel welcome. But the community knows this no longer feels like a safe place for lgbtq people. Good luck Hare! read more

I was pleasantly surprised when I spent the evening at The Hare! It had the good vibe of the Old Paradise! Gone is Black's - thank God! They were not friendly! But at the new Hare, there is a multi-racial, multi-aged crowd! It's a "pub", a neighborhood bar, where "friendly" is in the atmosphere! I'll be back! Service was fantastic! Don't miss the happy hour specials! read more

This place is just what the neighborhood needed. It's classy, but laid back, with a great daily happy hour. That's right, DAILY. even on the weekends! Service was excellent and the entertainment was fun. The sangria was delicious! The prices are very fair. I used to go to Paradise back in the day, and this place definitely is a bit reminiscent of those days. read more

I got the spicy cowboy on gf crust. First, not charging extra for it is amazing. Second, simply delicious. Will def be back. Thank you!

The atmosphere is good. We tried the Pizza and it awesome, but it's an afterthought and not a serious business model. Why? On our 2nd visit we were turned away due to "we ran out of pies and slices and sent out pizza Cooke home" Yet The Hare is listed as late night pizza dining. A good way to piss a customer off is to advertise as providing late night dining which invites a customer to drive across town, only to be rejected by the bartender. ‍ For this reason I drop from a 5 to a 3. read more

We went there for dinner last night. We were recommended by Jonnie, the server at the Breakfast Bar. The atmosphere and decor were bar fresh and welcoming, kind of reminded me of Cheers. The bartender and server were very friendly and attentive. Turns out our server was the owner of both restaurants. She was lovely and fun. But the food was literally exceptional! We ordered the spinach dip, cowboys spicy pizza, very spicy. The wings came with nice wing sauce. Homemade ranch and sweet bbq were delicious. The Brussel sprouts with bacon and pine nuts are sublime!!! Overall, we will definitely go back for more. Great clean neighborhood bar vibe with awesome food and friendly folks! read more
