I was bar hopping with friends in the Hollywood area and this spot was recommended so we stopped by. A solid bar with great specials and the atmosphere feels like a chill house party with excellent music. I think this will be a great spot for the summer days. I went during the day and loved the vibe in general. I’d definitely come back here again on a weekend night.

Cute dive(ish) bar with speakeasy vibes. Really cool back outdoor area. Decent amount of options for drinks. Did not try the food “van” but nice they have food. Overall a cute cool experience if you want a chill vibe.

Good Times at Davey Wayne’s is truly one of the most unique spots in Los Angeles. From the moment you walk through the hidden garage door entrance, you’re transported into a vintage world full of character, energy, and good vibes. I came out specifically to support the local bands performing, and I have to say — the live music scene here is top-tier. The sound system, the atmosphere, and the crowd all come together to make it feel like an intimate concert experience, while still keeping the fun, laid-back bar vibe alive. One thing I love about this venue is the mix of people. You’ll find locals, creatives, and visitors from all over, all connecting through music and good times. It’s not just about grabbing a drink — it’s about being part of the culture. The retro décor, great drinks, and outdoor patio make it easy to stay for hours and just enjoy the night. As a business owner with my merch company, Saka World Wide, this place was also a great opportunity to connect with people, share ideas, and build relationships. Los Angeles thrives on collaboration, and Davey Wayne’s is the type of spot where conversations happen naturally — whether it’s about music, fashion, or business. If you’re looking for a night out that combines incredible live music, a lively crowd, and a one-of-a-kind retro vibe, this is the place to be. Whether you’re supporting local bands like I was, meeting new people, or just looking for a memorable night in Hollywood, Good Times at Davey Wayne’s delivers every time. Highly recommend! Walking into Good Times at Davey Wayne’s is like stepping into a time machine that lands you right in the middle of the 1970s, but with all the energy and culture of modern Los Angeles.

The atmosphere is unmatched, and you immediately know you’re in for a special night. I came here to support some of the local bands performing, and the live music experience blew me away. The stage setup is intimate, allowing you to feel every beat and every lyric in a way that larger venues simply can’t replicate. You can tell that the management really cares about giving upcoming artists a platform to shine while still keeping the quality of the sound and performances top-notch. The crowd is always lively and engaged, dancing, clapping, and vibing along — it’s the type of energy that reminds you why live music is so important for a city’s culture. What makes Davey Wayne’s truly unique is how perfectly the retro vibe and live music complement each other. The shag carpets, old-school furniture, vintage posters, and overall design create an environment where you feel like you’re partying in your coolest uncle’s house back in the day. Pair that with live bands who bring raw talent and fresh energy, and you have a setting that balances nostalgia with creativity. It’s not just a bar or a club — it’s an experience where music and environment collide in the best way possible. The drinks are strong and crafted with care, and the bartenders add to the fun with their upbeat personalities. The outdoor patio gives you a chance to breathe in between sets, catch up with friends, or even network if you’re like me and always building relationships for your business. Running my merch company, Saka World Wide, I found myself not only enjoying the performances but also connecting with people who appreciate art, creativity, and community. It’s a reminder that venues like this aren’t just about entertainment — they’re hubs where culture and business can overlap naturally. Overall, Good Times at Davey Wayne’s is a one-of-a-kind venue in Hollywood that every music lover and culture seeker needs to visit.

This is one of my most favorite places to go out period. It's a great time, the drinks aren't to be missed, and the music and vibe is always just what I want. One thing that makes it less than perfect, is the orientation of the dance for in relation to the DJ, entry/ exit, bar, and backyard. The dance floor is a constant battle for space as people entering and exiting the venue push and shove their way through the people entering and exiting the bar area, pushing and shoving through the people pushing and shoving through to get outside, pushing and shoving through the people pushing and shoving through to get to the bathroom. If they moved the DJ booth to the opposite side of the room, where they currently have some couches, the dance floor would be less affected by the main thoroughfare. Bar staff could be more friendly too. Sometimes they've been great. Other times they're a bit standoffish, I've even been embarrassed by bringing guests here. This place is very close to 5 stars though.

What an unexpected gem! Our Uber driver had to drive around the block twice to find the place. Once we got inside, we were treated to great music with a lice DJ, an amazing eclectic atmosphere, and bartenders pouring quality drinks. We sat outside with our group of seven, enjoying music and watching another group laughing over a table game. I wish we had more time to hang out into the evening, but we had a concert to get. Next time we're in L.A. we will definitely visit again.
