Established in 2016, The Birdcage Venice Beach is one of the most popular new gay bars in Santa Monica, LA. The decor is chic, as are the clientele. There's a fab selection of cocktails too.

If you want to see and be seen on the gay scene in LA, this is a great spot to be in. Expect lots of house music. If you'd like a bit of peace and quiet you can chill on the patio. The drinks aren't cheap but they sure taste good. Try La Rosa Blanca, if you're a cocktail fan. You won't be disappointed.
