Burlesque bar with talented dancers and strong drinks
"Charlie wears a lot of his life philosophy on his sleeve, with outfits that harken to iconic Cher tweets and some of his favorite haunts in town. Jumbo’s Clown Room, the best bikini bar in Los Angeles (if not the country), makes the cut on one of his trucker hats." - Eater Staff
"There’s a good chance that Carly won’t like the idea of driving from the Marina to East Hollywood just to go to a strip club. But any apprehension she has will fade as soon as she walks in. For starters, Jumbo’s isn’t actually a strip club - it’s a burlesque spot. And also a really solid dive bar. The energy is great, the drinks are strong and cheap, and the dancers on stage are clearly having a whole lot of fun. Carly will, too." - brett keating
"OK, first off, Jumbo’s is not a strip club; it’s a Burlesque bar. Or at least a Burlesque-esque bar. So while the dancers don’t get nude on stage, they don’t spend the entire time reenacting the “Lady Marmalade” music video, either. A night here is slightly debaucherous and definitely leans heavily on the dive-bar side of things, but it’s also the kind of place where just about everyone can cut loose. If you’re looking for a slightly, uh, non-traditional date night, this is it. You don’t even have to tell the kids where you went." - jess basser sanders, brett keating, james montgomery
"Another LA institution, this burlesque bar on Hollywood Blvd. is perhaps the only strip club in the country where waiting an hour to get in is time well spent. Once inside, you’ll find a mixed crowd full of every walk of life, absurdly talented dancers, and an energy that simply can’t be replicated. Whatever your opinions are about strip clubs, toss them out. Jumbo’s is special and a night everyone in LA needs to experience at least once." - brant cox
"If you’re wondering how a Hollywood strip club could possibly make this list, you clearly haven’t spent a night at Jumbo’s. This iconic dive bar has an energy unlike anywhere else in LA, and that makes waiting in the hour-long line worth every second. Once inside, you’ll find the cheapest and strongest drinks in the neighborhood, a mixed crowd of people, and a stage full of artists who care about what they do." - brant cox, brett keating
