It's cool but the drink prices change alot in one night. Not just happy hour to not happy hour but like from bartender to bartender in the span of 20 to 40 minutes. If it happens again, I'll show receipts. 🙂Manny Savage

Trying to get a drink here is terrible. I waited in line to order my drink. Took forever. The bartenders kept ignoring me and taking other customers behind me. One customer had to stop and tell the bartender I was next. Bartender was extremely rude. Not a fun experience.Beau Von Hoffman

Precinct is a great spot for everyone to meet up and enjoy - go to several other bars then meet back up at Precinct. We have made it our meeting point for the evening and gets a good crowd that is strangely not pretentious for the area of town its in - lol - thank you for your fun upbeat bar staff and making us not feel like just a number even when its packed!Joe Aragon

My fav gay bar in LA! Always an event going on! Very inclusive and have made so many friends! Best parties are fat slut, bearracuda, Howl, Ckub Chub, Tuesicals! You can never go wrong! It’s become a local bar, bartenders know us, always friendly, always good food!Ray L.

Overall, great place! I have gone there several times and I have found that most of their employees are awesome. In one occasion, my friend was super drunk and kept spilling her drinks on the floor (I know, we were trying to get her out and take her home cuz she was done for the night) and although the staff could (and rightfully so) have been mad at us, they just helped out and were still nice. I have had some experiences where some of their bar tenders are rid for no reason (like when one of my friends complemented one of the bar tenders on his shirt and he made a face at her and snarky turned around and stopped taking tending to us. BUT in the same scenario, another bar tender that was there saw the interaction and immediately stepped in to take our drink orders and was super friendly). We’ve had a few other interactions like this with other staff, but they are usually far outshined by the other employees who truly make it a place I want to come back to.I would caution, I know some people who have gotten roofied here. I don’t think this is the fault of the business though (although I know that measures need to be taken by club owners in general, I also understand that there is only so much that clubs can do). This is just something we all need to be aware of in any club we go to as a general safety practice.Aaron

DO NOT PAY IN CASH. I paid in cash recently for a drink and was not provided a receipt or my change. It sucks that we have to deal with such thievery in our own community. It’s safer to pay with card, and even then I recommend asking for drink prices before you pay so you know if something is off.There’s a specific Caucasian bald bartender who is unapologetically a thief and will not provide receipts for cash transactions and will deny accountability when confronted. I was going to tip him too but never received the change to do so, so I hope this bar changes their protocols for cash handling moving forward.EDIT - So I guess the owner loves to lie because I never spoke with a manager. Only the bartender. I know what cash I pulled up with, and yall can keep your story however you want. Facts are the bartender took my 20 and never came back with my change never gave me a chance to even ask for the receipt. By the way the owner speaks to their patrons, and is willingly able to lie and make such a long response to a small issue like mine proves that they do not care for there patrons. You believe it’s a 10, I believe it’s a 20. Okay that’s fine we can disagree, but to lie about what happened is ridiculous. I never spoke to manager, no one checked cameras with me there, and no one spent a long time explaining anything to me (it was literally a 5 minute dispute). Sorry Jeremy, you just suck at managing this bar.Frank R.

Giant gay bar with large patio. Easy enough to get a drink,mind you we went midweek. The service must have been fine since it's not memorable.Jonathan Caballero

Precinct is my favorite queer bar in Los Angeles. I’d say it is the most inclusive and diverse spaces in the area. They have a bunch of curated events that cater to different members of the community. My only complaint would be the cash-only cover. There is an ATM for convenience, but I’d prefer to not have to do that. Eclectic go-go dancers, good music, sufficient number of bartenders, and better-than-average quality bar food. Precinct really has it all.Lauren Robledo

If you want to see hilarious, edgy, and creative performances unlike any other in the LA area at a crazy affordable price then Precinct is the place to go. Queens performed unique numbers with plenty of audience engagement. A group of friends and I went to the first installment of She’s in Parties (a now monthly goth night) and had an amazing time. All of us frequently go to other goth nights/clubs in the area and unanimously agreed that Precinct is now our top choice for dark night life and entertainment. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Precinct has a killer ambiance with gorgeous art and posters all over. Staff members have always been super friendly and attentive whenever we visit....Arthur Han

RACIST BOUNCER!!!I am a Korean trans man and gave my ID to the bouncer earlier tonight and the first and only thing the he said was “One child policy? Only child?? China!! CHINA!!!” I told him that was racist and he said nothing - just laughed and waved me inside. I immediately alerted the staff taking the cover fee upstairs and the manager happened to be present. He later asked me to identify which staff said the racist comment and gave me a gift card and a free drink (which my friend had to request.)I have been a patron of Precinct for many years and never in my life have I experienced such blatant racism. A younger version of myself would have said nothing and carried on with my night. But NO MORE. I stood up for myself and my community. I’m a Los Angeles native and will never stand for racism or bigotry of any kind. Since management attempted to remedy the situation I stayed to support the wonderful drag performers -but I am disgusted by the behavior of the bouncer and no longer feel safe at Precinct or would recommend this venue to any of my Asian American friends. Truly despicable behavior and utterly disappointing coming from a gay bar.Vicente M. Luna

The staff are fantastic, the service is great, shows and DJs are always amazing! I am partial because like Helen Harris, I know the owner but until recently I have never given a good review. I had pause the other day, I go in like twice a month at least, thinking of all the great times and amazing memories and I thought I need to show some LOVE! Wear whatever you want and be who ever you are, you are welcome here! Except for a sloppy drunk, bad tipper or bigot of any kind. Love the bouncers for getting rid of that trash!lolThomas Pennington

Shady bartender that charged $10 for a tequila ginger beer one time then charged $24 for the exact same drink 24 minutes later. Drinks were both after happy hour. Checked with other staff members who seemed concerned when I asked them if that was normal. Food was delicious though. Chicken tenders, onion rings and jalapeño poppers are well worth the priceMichael K.

Decided to go on my last night in Los Angeles, and it was very good. Johnny was great, he was attentive without being much. He made great drinks!But when his shift ended the next bartender, I didn't get his name, he barely looked at me when my drink was out, he kept talking to someone though. I had to move into his eyesight for him to get me another drink, twice. I was standing maybe 3 feet away.But let me tell ya, the chicken tenders are amazing! Johnny recommended them and he's right. He said they aren't the frozen kind but actually home made. So so very delicious!Corey Piddington

Came here for a few events while visiting La. I can honestly say the food they serve is absolutely incredible. The chicken tenders are the best I’ve had. Big juicy and crispy. The staff are all friendly and professional. The lady who took my food orders on both days was an absolute credit to this place. Prices are very reasonable and the shows put on are well worth the money. There is some lovely pieces of art dotted around the venue and the mural in the smoking patio is incredible. Well worth a visit to anyone wanting to support LGBTQ+ venues.Mike W.

Came here to watch drag race. It was a really fun vibe and I had a good time. The bartenders were super quick for how busy it was and were friendly. Drinks were well priced. I know times get really busy but the only frustration for me was that 4 of the bathroom stalls wouldn't lock and most of them were out of toilet paper so I found myself in a situation lol. Wish that wasn't the case but has a good time anyways.Albert H.

This is no safe place for people of the LGBT community!I was assaulted by 5 people at this bar and after the assault happened I was attacked by Precinct Security Staff. I was pinned to the ground by the security guards after the attack and then drug out of this bar on my behind on the concrete floor. Where the attackers were waiting for me at the entrance. I was threatened with bear mace once I was outside trying to gather my belongings and leave. This is no place for people of the LGBT community, I was not safe in this establishment and neither are you if someone attacks you.No one in this bar offered me medical assistance after I was attacked, they only furthered the attack.Joe D.

I’m happy others here had a better experience than I did. I went to Precinct for the first time a few weeks back and immediately got off to a bad start. The woman at the front was incredibly curt to me, as I was trying to clarify given the time and sign in front of her whether or not I had to pay cover. She treated me as if I should have known better to even ask and was very short with me. I was still confused if I had to eventually pay, and I saw it was cash only, so I asked where the ATM was just in case. She pointed wordlessly to the machine behind her and gave me a look like I was a total moron for daring to ask. I felt incredibly unwelcome.I got a Beyond burger, clarified I needed it vegan without dairy and the person who took the order confirmed they put it in as fully vegan, while I waited for my friends. After waiting about 20 minutes I got a burger with mayo on it. I have a dairy intolerance and had to get it remade, which took another 15 minutes. The tots were great and the person working the counter was much more pleasant, but the burger and food overall was not worth the time nor the price. Bar staff were fairly neutral as far as demeanor.Maybe it was just the crowd and the night, but I got a very “mean girl gay” vibe from almost everyone and ended up sitting on the patio by myself until my friends showed, didn’t stay much longer after that. There was one pleasant group of people who briefly sat at the table with me, an oasis in an otherwise sea of weird stares and just a general aura of unpleasantness, as I was alone, scoping out the unfamiliar space, and not drinking.I’ve followed Precinct for a while and was excited to go to an event there, but it was one of the most uncomfortable experiences I’ve had at an LGBTQ space in LA — and I go out often to other queer events and spaces alone with far different results, often with new connections and friends. I don’t often leave reviews but I was really crushed that I had such a poor experience after looking forward to finally checking this place out. I won’t be returning.Bill W.

Friends and I traveled from Florida to come here and see our favorite Drag queens perform. We stood in line for almost two hours. When we got to the door security wouldn’t let us in because my ID was expired. A bit of context; I am not a citizen and if you know the system you know it can take up to 6 months to get an ID back. I tried to present other ID to explain the situation but I was shut down. I understand rules but to every rule there’s an exception. I just think if TSA accepted my ID and I was able to travel from one coast to the next then security could have at least asked a manager if they’d be willing to make an exception. I’d even be happy with a no if there was some proving done.Edit: (because the person from the establishment who responded didn’t really read to understand) I presented alternate ID that wasn’t a driver’s license or state ID that was not expired but was shut down. I’ve worked in hospitality and restaurants for almost 10 years. I understand liquor licenses and laws. A better response would be admitting that you and your staff don’t feel comfortable accepting other forms of ID. Don’t be passive aggressive in a feigned attempt to sound “professional”. Just say you’re salty about the review girl.Jacob Simon

Amazing place for a drag brunch. The performers were very entertaining. And I love that their bathrooms are all inclusive. My only grip was it took over an hr to get our food. The table behind us arrived after us but got their food before us, we think the waiter didn’t even put our order in. He claimed the steak in one of our orders was thick and needed to cook longer. Seriously dude? Lol. But anyways once we got our food it was very good,Cynthia R.

I enjoyed this nightclub. The staff members were nice for the most part. I enjoyed the dancers a lot. I blew off all my cash on four male dancers, LOL that’s how great they were!

I love this place,, the drinks, the atmosphere, the bartenders and other employees. It has such a nice vibe compared to pretentious WeHo. I love the djs, music and drag shows, all 5 stars and top shelf! Excellent place for dancing and they have a nice outdoor balcony area overlooking LA, truly magical in my experience.Adam Bou Hamdan

Definitely my go-to spot on Friday nights. The drinks aren’t overpriced, and the DJs are always on point with the song choices. The bartenders are friendly. People that are drinking tend to like cutting in lines, but I’ve noticed the bartenders knowing exactly who got there first lolDonald Pedersen

Had a terrible time on a Friday night. It was my first time there and I didn't know there was a cover charge for the drag show happening inside (which was a total letdown btw). The front desk person stamping people's arms was rude to me as if I was expected to know all the rules of the place The crowd was okay and the beer was okay too. Bartender was good and the beer was cheap at $5. Don't know how it is on other nights of the week.Frank Cervantes

It's a good time, but after just becoming a weekly regular I had to stop going 4 weeks ago because they're no longer requiring proof of vaccination at the door.

I guess it's back to the crawl and I'll eventually find somewhere else.Alejandro David Dumas

I put 3 stars because i never knew this place existed. I have walked by here many times and never noticed it. Saturday i saw a security guard sitting outside and took the time to say hi.

Favorite bar in LA. Only thing that bothers me is that, they're okay with cigarettes on their balcony but not marijuana even though marijuana is way less deadly for you and legal in California.. dj is always great and the bartenders are amazing. They make great drinks and you should definitely take whatever recommendation they offer you if they offer one.Christian Sanchez

Always a great time at Precinct! From generous drink pours to exceptionally welcoming crowd to vibrant shows, Precinct is the place to be.

Absolutely love this bar in downtown, and always recommend checking this place out for newcomers and visitors to LA. Great bartenders, fair prices, awesome events and entertainment, and a gem for queer nightlife outside of WeHo. The drag events that get thrown here are top notice.I wish the music on the dance floor was a bit lower though, as a few times I've forgotten my sound dampeners, I've left with ringing ears for several days. Definite hearing damage for everyone 🙁Austin Hwang

Staff is rude and slow. Waited 20 mins in line. Then waited 30 mins in line with a slow bartender to get drinks, then they told everyone to leave at 1:45 and didn't let anyone use the bathroom. They close at 2 am and I had ample time to use the bathroom and leave by then. Take your business elsewhereAustin H.

Had an enjoyable first time at Precinct for a Drag Race viewing party. The drinks were strong and I liked that the wait for a drink wasn't long at all...Paul D.

It is absolutely *disgusting* how they are requiring proof of vaccination for entry. Do they seriously want another Club Pulse-like incident to happen???...Mr R.

The appetizers might be the best part of this place. Make sure to try the french fries.Elvira Frazier

A fun experience, and good flavors, although the Tilapia dish I ordered was EXTREMELY overcooked. Great atmosphere in the main restaurant, although we were seated in the "hut" in the back, and it was cold and quiet, so if you go, get seated in the main room. Un-intimidating menu which is nice for a first time Senegalese restaurant eater.Bennett Ullrich

Talk about a wealth of culture! My homeboy's sis was having an event here I believe to support women's rights... It's like stepping into another country! The staff members were so cultured and authentic, the music and crowd were all so loud and fun it was like being at an indoor festival! It was packed but packed in a good way like packed full of LIFE! The drinks and food were amazing. Go here if you want to experience some culture and rare atmosphere.Macel Windy

I ordered a mojito and it was delicious with a heavy-handed pour of booze, just the way I like it. I had a Pimm's Cup too which had a great over-all gingery taste and was garnished with a crispy cucumber slice. The bartender chick making the tasty drinks was adorable and engaging. The dudes working with her were appropriately clad in hipster ensemble -- blue and red plaid button downs with straight black ties -- and I couldn't help remarking on the matching coincidence.Lela Wolfe

Broke my heels here and asked for duct tape... was instead led backstage where several initially intimidating-looking but really sweet staff tried to fix my shoes. My shoes were goners so they gave me a pair of cute comfy sandals and a drink ticket! Later on in the night when I bumped into them again they asked how my shoes were holding up.Elisa Rodriguez

One of the best pints of Guinness in the city (though that's not saying much, as I've found it hard to get one poured right in the States). The upstairs is cool too, with its pool tables and darts. Crowd consists mostly of locals, and the bartenders are pretty cool. Good conversation bar before the crowds on the weekend.Sean B.

My most visited gay bar in downtown, next to Redline. Now that Mattachine closed Precinct remains even more treasured! Queen Kong on Friday's & Trivia night on Tuesday's are m ut favorite.
