The Bungalow

Picture a converted beach bungalow steps from the sand, packed with an attractive crowd soaking in the Southern California sunshine with drinks in hand. That’s The Bungalow in a nutshell—a Santa Monica institution that has mastered the art of daytime revelry. The space itself is genuinely impressive, transforming what was once a humble beach house into one of LA’s most sought-after watering holes.

The crowd here skews young and energetic, the type who bounce back from late nights without so much as a headache. They’ve gathered here because The Bungalow delivers something that’s hard to find: a truly exceptional day-drinking atmosphere right on the beach. The vibe is chaotic in the best possible way, with groups spilling across multiple rooms and outdoor spaces.

This is the spot for rolling deep with your crew on a sunny Saturday afternoon. The converted bungalow setting gives it character and charm that typical bars lack, and the oceanfront location is unbeatable. Whether you’re celebrating, catching up with friends, or just want to be where the action is, The Bungalow delivers.

Come ready to embrace the beautiful chaos. It might not be the place for a quiet cocktail, but for those seeking an unforgettable day out with friends, few spots in LA can compete with this Santa Monica landmark.
