The Chestnut Club - Santa Monica Bar - Cocktails - Happy Hour 5-7pm reviews
16Fun little spot to unwind with friends and enjoy some cocktails or beer. Atmosphere is low key and classy at the same time. Booths line the walls, high top tables in the middle, and comfy bar stools. Parking is slim, and can be a problem, but don't let that deter you from going here. Happy hour specials are worth it.
Experience wasn’t what I expected. Liquor selection was the only thing that kept me there for 1 drink. The bartender was a bit off in character and the dj was awful. The playlist was meant a college bar & did not anywhere fit the vibe of this place. To top it off this rainbow clown light really killed the entire aroma of the bar.
The reviews for this place are good so maybe this was an off day (I went on a Friday night). Truly want to give the place another try as it definitely has the potential to be a great spot.
Definitely a more high end bar near downtown Santa Monica. Love that is is in a basement and just gives off this cozy atmosphere once inside. The drinks were absolutely delicious.
Would definitely recommend coming for their happy hour, made things a lil more affordable.
10/10 would recommend
Great spot! First time here and we were instantly greeted by Luis. He made us feel so welcome and right at home. Quality drinks and food. The ambiance is super cozy and sophisticated. We will definitely be back for a night when the DJ is playing. Thank you Luis for such a special time!
Really cool spot for a few cocktails with lovely staff, especially the wonderful Tallulah!
Great bar to meet people with excellent service. I wish they would turn down the music so you could talk.
Lively spot for cocktails and music. We went on a Saturday night and the place was pretty full and the DJ was really good. Will definitely be back!
I love it. Cozy and warm. Perfect environment for some drinks. Staff very friendly. Good drinks too. 100% recommended
Had the pleasure of visiting this bar while in LA. This place was bomb. From the location, to the atmosphere, to the music! Very nice Vibe all around! Oh and the drinks were Everything!
This place is a usual hit for me. But when we walked in they were playing Lincoln park style music? Not a great fit for a cocktail bar. Waitress was unfriendly and spent most of the night flirting with the bartender then spilled our drinks upon delivering them to the table? And then to top it off bouncer asked how our experience was, we said the music seemed off and his response was dismissive. Maybe an off night. But definitely not the chestnut club we remember.
Truly one of the worst bars I’ve ever been to. My friends called ahead and asked if dogs are allowed the bar said yes. I walked all the way to the bar with my service dog who was so excited to see my friends she was definitely jumping here and there as dogs do when they haven’t seen someone in a long time. The manager said my dog was clearly not a service dog based on her energy which is completely false…I have her for my depression. He said they don’t support “anxiety dogs” which my mouth basically dropped at…. Anxiety and depression are two separate things. There were 4 ppl in the bar…this place is a complete joke. Don’t go here- cocktails suck as well.
Super cool atmosphere. The manager/ (GM?) Was super nice and made sure everyone was having a good time. The drinks were great!
Vibe is cool.someone came around to us as we were sitting (after sitting there for 30 min) that we needed to order a min $250 to keep sitting there.mind you, there was 4 open tables next to us? It seemed a bit odd you would say that to a customer - we had already had one round of drinks and were going to order another, but the minimum seemed a bit crazy so we left.i suggest you only say this to guests when the place is actually packed full.
Visiting from Charlotte, NC L. Arsenic was amazing! His attention to detail and customer service made me feel right at home. I’ll definitely come back and recommend everyone to see Arsenio!
Great little bar. Well designed. Great service! Very accommodating. Great whiskey list. Plenty of other options for those who aren't into whiskey.
