"LA Okayplayers...I need food/lounge/bar suggestions."


  

          

So, my job transfer went through and I secured a loft in San Pedro. I'll be moving at the beginning of September, but I don't know much about that area. So, I'm looking for suggestions/insights on my new hood. What you know good?

Eeeshh... I don't venture below the 10 (racist like that).. I'm sure Rtistic can chime in

I think there are some cool spots in Long Beach though.. Homie lives down there and he says there is a growing bar scene...

Downtown LB and bixby knolls I think

That's the closest thing to you in San Pedro. You're about a 35 minute (traffic free) drive from Downtown LA. Long Beach is a college town, so depending on your age you'll be just fine or miserable. Check out Downtown Long Beach - there's lots of bars/restaurants, etc.

I'm just trying to keep it low key. I'll definitely be checking out Long Beach b/c of proximity. However, my best mate is in Santa Monica. So, I know half the time I'll be trekking up to her. She's pretty much a newbie as well. So, I'm not limited to that area.

Just resign yourself to an hour commute tho.

Oh and the College is closer to Bixby than actual Long Beach - Downtown Long beach is much classier, or at least was when I was there.

You'll be alright.

But it is maybe 35-40 minutes from Downtown L.A. It's actually the easiest straight shot ever down the 110, and that makes it 45-50 min from Hollywood. But DT Long Beach, the Pike area, caters more to you.

In response to Reply # 0

          

as stated, if you're looking for "nightlife" your closest bet is probably in LB

but truth be told the coastal in San Pedro/PV has some of the nicest views in all LA

BUNCH of dope places for picnics/small cookouts and that type of hangout

back to your question, again as stated, the proximity to the 110 pretty much allows you to get places to hang out easily

EASILY one of the top 5 nicest places I've ever been.
