Los Angeles, CABest Nightclubs for Girls Who Like Boys Who Like to Be Girls: Dance Workouts
What roundup of GLBT 'n' straight mashes would be complete without the Silver Lake sweat fests at Akbar? The dance floor and adjacent bar area are a microcosmic meld of the neighborhood itself, attracting boy toys and breeder babes both multiethnic and bodaciously boho.—Lina Lecaro

Los Angeles, CABest of Gay L.A Nightlife: Gay Bar
Akbar stands as a monument to everything that's right and good about the gay-bar scene. Opened on December 31, 1996, by co-owners Scott Craig and Peter Alexander, the jukebox offers everything from Gram Parsons to Vampire Weekend, while the bar attracts a wide variety of hot guys and gals who chill out, drink a few beers and possibly make out in the back. Elitism is not a vibe that runs through Akbar, and its customers seem to know it. The place feels like a neighborhood bar rather than a heavy-duty nighttime scene, which has always been Craig and Alexander's intention for Akbar. Gays and lesbians on the Westside may not know of this treasure, or they've forgotten about it, but Akbar is there, and waiting to be checked out. Once you go, you'll probably become a regular.—Patrick Range McDonald

Male / 27 / Anaheim, CAMy favorite little Gay bar.
This is my favorite little Gay Bar in the LA area. On Fridays and Saturdays they have a good mix of 80's and current music. They have a lounge on the side when you walk in, and a dance floor on the other that is separated so that you can have conversation or shake your ass. It does get crowded on the weekends, but I don't feel like the crowd is as pretentious as some of the gay haunts in the area.
