Order This

Cheap, strong drinks - this is a dive, embrace it. The jukebox is legendary. Beer and a shot. Nothing fancy, everything welcoming.

Best Time

Late night for the full Akbar experience. The diverse crowd is the draw. Dance floor picks up late.

Know Before You Go

Silver Lake's beloved queer dive bar. The jukebox is genuinely legendary. Cheap drinks, eclectic crowd, inclusive energy. Not pretending to be anything other than what it is - and that's perfect.
