Alex's Bar
Emi K. Irvine, CA 4.0 star rating 6/23/2013 1 photo Alex's Bar is Long Beach's best-kept secret for live music. My husband and I came here last night for the first time to attend the Punk Rock Social headlined by The MUFFS and featuring Pu$$y-Cow, The Ex-Gentlemen, and Dollyrots. Awesome lineup, great acoustics, muted lighting and plenty of room on the dance floor. Crowd was pretty mellow for a punk rock show (read: no moshing). The interior of this intimate venue is classy yet at the same time bizarrely decorated: vibrant red walls adorned with dated concert posters and velvet paintings, Halloween motifs, rustic crystal ceiling chandelier. There's a photobooth in the corner which is pretty cool. Diverse, casual crowd. Unpretentious, friendly bartenders. Reasonable drink prices. Clean restroom. Tips: Entrance is in the back. Limited parking spaces so plan accordingly.
