Good Times at Davey Wayne’s

Good Times at Davey Wayne’s is a themed cocktail bar nestled in the heart of Hollywood that turns a night out into an immersive 1970s house-party experience. The entrance itself is a show-stopper: you browse a faux garage sale full of kitsch before stepping through a refrigerator door into the interior space—equal parts lounge, backyard and time capsule. Inside, the décor is unapologetically 70s: tufted sofas, shag carpets, lava lamps, retro beer cans and even lawn-style Astroturf in the backyard area. The venue features a hammock zone, Airstream trailer bar that serves boozy snow cones, and a BBQ-style outdoor yard. The vibe shifts from lounge in the early evening to full on party after dark—with DJs, dancing and a swinging throwback soundtrack featuring Led Zeppelin, Earth Wind & Fire and other era anthems. Drink-wise, cocktails lean into playful nostalgia: signature drinks like Some People Call Me Maurice (a mezcal/Grasshopper mash-up) or Regal Beagle (rum, sherry, lime, pistachio) pay homage to classic flavour profiles with a twist. The menu also features beers on tap and snacks like grilled cheese, chili dogs and backyard BBQ fare in the outdoor section. The locale is fun for both first-time visitors and locals: given the nostalgia-driven design, the secret entrance and the lively backyard area, it’s ideal for date nights, group meet-ups, birthday celebrations or simply a standout night in Los Angeles. The dress code is comfortable California casual (no athletic wear or sandals after dark).
