Los Angeles actually does try to get some sleep here and there. With closing time hitting the bars and clubs at 2am, it’s not always easy to find late-night parties rocking out until the sun comes up. But with the proper planning, it’s possible to make after-hours in L.A. more than the cab ride home.
Angelenos and visitors looking to stave off their hangovers after painting the town red can stay up late in one of the city’s many diners. Long-time favorites like Canter’s Deli in the Fairfax District, Swingers Diner in Beverly Grove, 101 Coffee Shop in Hollywood, and Norms in West L.A. are always ready to serve its patrons a hot cup of Joe and stack of flapjacks.
But for folks looking to let the music play once the drinks stop flowing, hopping Hollywood offers a few clubs that stay open until dawn for crowds of energetic dancers not ready to call it quits.
Those who want to avoid hitting the hay may have only a few Los Angeles after-hours options, but that’s all one needs to start winding down the night’s festivities…or to keep them moving full steam ahead.
