Akbar

Gay bar · Silver Lake

"Silver Lake’s Akbar was saved by a GoFundMe in late 2020, and that’s a very good thing for this iconic Silver Lake bar. After more than 25 years open, Akbar remains a central part of queer life in Los Angeles with inexpensive drinks and a welcoming crowd." - Rebecca Roland, Eater Staff
