Love this place! Wanted some food and to watch some Australian Open tennis. Had a fresh CesarSalad with grilled chicken. The presentation was beautiful. Tasted great. Attentive bartender. Great crowd with some “eye candy”. Definitely going back! 💪🏻

Prob one of the best veggie burgers I've had in a long while. The impossible patty is thick n juicy and it is cooked on a separate skillet than the other foods. On Monday's the burgers are only $11! 😁 Cute spot for the gays to gather casually.

The bar is good! Always busy, the food is great for the bar. We really enjoy fish and chips, and a hot dog.I just wish it’s a little cleaner during service

If you're a sports fan this is the bar for you. Plenty of TVs to watch multiple games and I felt like they had every sport on that day. We ordered our food...

Since the new ownership some of the food gotten better like the hamburger but the chicken tenders are smaller and tatar tar fries are smaller both made from frozen packaging very sad fish and chips more batter then fish they need to add happy hour to weekends to get more patrons to come in also they need to keep restroom cleaner and they keep going from stainless to plastic which is horrible steal overall a great hang out! Updated I decided to try the dodger hot dog which I enjoy when I go the games but was disappointed was eight dollars was boil and not the same as the one they serve at dodger stadium they have there own hot dog for $3.50 which is way more better and worth the price!Update stay away from the tacos there soggy and tiny you need a microscope to see them for $4.00 your better off at Taco Bell.

Gym Bar WEHO is an incredible spot with a fantastic atmosphere. For those who truly appreciate a well-made Long Island Iced Tea, this is the place to be. The uniqueness of the cocktail here is unmatched; you won’t find anything like it anywhere else in the world. I absolutely recommend this place for anyone looking to enjoy a great drink. Plus, they offer some tasty snacks that complement the drinks perfectly. Unfortunately, I couldn't take any photos because the Long Island Iced Tea took over my senses, but trust me, it's worth the visit!

Trivia on Wednesdays was fun! (Download app '123 Fun' to play.) Three rounds were enough for the night.Great place to share drinks with friends, tourists, and locals. If you like watching LA and OC teams and playoff sports with a meal, there's no better place.Food seemed decent, though I didn't order.My non-alcoholic 12oz canned beverage cost me $8, a bit overpriced.

This place is fantastic! They have great deals on drinks, the bartenders are super nice and accommodating, and they always have various games on their plentiful TVs. Very much recommend it if you're in the area.

The short bald bartender totally under pours shots! I said those shots are pretty weak, he's all- you can order a double. So that would then be $50+ for 2...

Happy hour drink specials are dangerous but a community staple. Food is quick and tasty, maybe a bit heavy but it's very much the fried food + beer energy of a sports bar. Bar and patio are not huge, but some people like bustling crowds on event nights or game days

Visited for the first for my boyfriend's birthday. This is a great spot to catch a game, eat some good food, and enjoy plenty of happy hour options. This place gets and A+ and I'd definitely recommend it. They have also have locations in New York and Fort Lauderdale.

Security has a hard on thinking they run the business. They wouldn't even let me take out cups of water for my drunk friends.

I’ve always found the patrons and staff to be the friendliest in boys town. Good prices and I also enjoy the darts though wish they would bring back photo hunt.

Awesome gay sports bar in WeHo that actually plays the game volume. Chicken Caesar wrap was delicious, as were the fried pickles. I’ll be back on game days for sure.

Very unimpressed. The bars posted closing time is wrong. The bartender served me a drink at 1:20 and then we were all kicked out by the bouncer at 1:30.

Came in during a downpour. Friendly service, several food options, good range of prices, all the right jams playing and a variety of sports games on. Highly recommend the Breakfast Shot.

Lovely people. Everyone was super friendly and supportive. Surprisingly, there weren't many ladies there and some of the men had on clothes I first thought were being worn by women. I'm not sure why everyone was so nice to me, maybe they've figured something about life the rest of the world hasn't? Might have to go back to investigate this happy anomaly.Good food. Good drinks. Ben and Zach, our KJ's last night, have outstandingly good voices and were nothing but good fun.

Stumbled on to randomly to watch the NBA finals while we were in town. Great drink specials. Who knew, it's also a gay bar. Great spot.

Due to a greedy landlord, Gym Bar had to move from it's old West Hollywood location to the current spot right at San Vicente and Santa Monica Blvd. This had turned out to be a boon for Gym Bar, because the new location is superior: more foot traffic and more spacious.Gym Bar is one of WeHo's best spots, if lower-key than most other local drinking holes. It's more of a locals bar, not a party bar. Folks really to gather here to watch sports, and, yes, many gays actually are into sports.Surprisingly, the food here is actually decent, and the prices aren't too bad.

The music is great and the food is amazing . Some of the older bartenders make the place more amazing . But some young ones make the place kinda toxic with annoying masculinity attitude lol that’s what keeps the place going to 5 stars lol. But other then that the place is very great to have friends and family at. The prices are reasonable with awesome karaoke nights and has great dancers also. 🌈🏳️‍🌈❤️ Positive people with uplifting employees matter

Everyone who works here is great, the food is tasty, prices are okay. The layout is weird - not a great place to go alone, but good for groups. There's not really anywhere to stand. It's usually over-crowded (like squeezing through people). Good for them, though!

Great happy hour with stiff drinks. Friendly and always a bit of a crowd. A local hangout.

A nice location with a large patio where you can sit and drink and chat with people they have gas heaters out there and you can smoke and enjoy yourself and their beverages are well made good sized and not particularly expensive. Bye, Stephen Valentino

Best gay sports bar in all of West HollywoodKind staff, great service, fun bar. Tvs for sports, darts for the bored, and an outdoor area for the Angeleno.Definitely a place full of regulars

Very nice bartender, prices that don't blow off your hat, wide choice of beers and snacks. Sizes were honest, the place has its style. Outdoor seating is absolutely the ultimate way to enjoy the neighbourhood and its mood.

Cool gay bar! Nice deal on happy hour drinks, wings were pretty good. Enjoyed the crowd.

Really fun space! Staff was very friendly, seating was available despite being busy, music was great, loved the food and frozen drinks. Only thing to add is to ask staff to get an Alabama flag on the wall (joking). My friend is an Alabama alumni and was disappointed to see Auburn but not Alabama, haha.

They have a 2 for 1 happy hour but it's really not 2 for 1 as 1 is $10 which is pricey for even 2.

Bri z

23:01 02 Jul 22

Awesome happy hour, 2 for 1!! Service is good and drinks are strong. Fun place to hangout in weho on a weekday night! Weekends get BUSY but it's a fun spot, just be prepared to wait a little bit for drinks/seating.

Absolutely awful bar, I got pickpocketed here lost my phone and wallet on 6/4/22! The bouncer rather than help me, accused me of something I didn't do when I paid for multiple rounds which can be confirmed and he decided to shame me outside telling me bye repeatedly, never leant a hand and didn't let me in to check the bar's lost and found.If I could leave this bar a 0 review I gladly would, you will get pick pocketed you will lose everything you own and you will not be helped at all.

Absolutely GREAT bar n’ grill. The best service, I love the owner, Aubrey, such a genuinely nice & friendly guy. The drinks are great, the entertainment is excellent (Hawt dancers!!!), great food… just nothing but the best to say here 🙂 Come & check em out for yourself!

Absolutely great bar n’ grill. The best service. I love it, they play the best sports on TV all night, and really the bartenders have the best pour here, compared with other bars in the area! Also—there is a LIVE DJ here spinning music—who has that?!?! They have live amazing dancers too.

A fun and friendly bar!There are flags all over representing dozens and dozens of teams across multiple sports - including my favorite team, the Oklahoma State Cowboys - along with different games on nine TVs, making this feel like the true Sports Bar it is.Nightly food and drink specials are priced great. I had the $2 hot dogs on Thursday night, which were long, plump, and tasty.The service is quick, the staff and crowd are super friendly, and the mix of patrons is very diverse. You will run into to folks like yourself here.

I have to be honest the reason this is a 4 is because aubry the barman, daniel the bar back and Barry the door man really did an upscale job. The other bartender not so much. Older, tall, slender. He was pleasant. But patron's weren't his priority, his friends were. Aubry really stept up to the plate.Coming from Canada I'm always surprised at the customer service in America. This was no different.We ordered 2 margs - super sweet, just marg mix and sweet and sour. Had a bloddy mary, beware when you ask for spicey you'll get it.We had the blue cheese burger as well as the bbq burger. We asked the bbq burger to be beyond meat and to have no bacon... that is not what we got. But it was still really good. Fries were excellent.

As a recent transplant to Los Angeles from Fort Lauderdale, I have become a regular at Gym Bar in West Hollywood. The staff is top-notch. Kudos to Jake, Katrina and James. Whether you are a local or a tourist, you can eat, drink and be merry at Gym Bar.

Very pleased as a WeHo local that Gym Sportsbar is back! Visited with my friend and we were very impressed with the service and drinks. We had to show our vaccine card at the door which I like because you feel safer at a bar with lots of people when you know they are all vaccinated. The space is pretty big and has a nice outdoor area you can chill at. The staff are very friendly and we got some really cheap $7 drinks at the bar. Will definitely be coming back!
