The Best Dive Bars In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Open since 1959, Chez Jay is an actual LA landmark. They’re also one of the only places we can think of in Santa Monica (that’s not a tourist trap or a scene-y small plates spot) where you can get stiff mixed drinks and a buttered lobster tail in one sitting. There are peanut shells on the floor, the jukebox probably doesn’t play anything that came after 1983, and we’re almost positive that the weird giant fish on the wall is staring at us. The recently renovated back patio is a fantastic place for some weekend day drinking, and is way nicer than it has any business being." - brant cox
