Drinks & Nightlife

The quintessential Venice bar, The Brig has been a cornerstone of the iconic Abbot Kinney Boulevard for over 60 years. We host nightly entertainment (sports! DJs every night!), food trucks on our lot next door (from Kogi to Dogtown Dogs to The Grilled Cheese Truck), and an eclectic mix of retro and futuristic elements in design. On the first Friday of every month, we're sort of the unofficial HQ of a little shindig called First Fridays.
