11 Best Pubs near Bell Gardens

“SERVICE & CHECKINCheckin was slow as molasses (so much paperwork) ontop of the long wait for a room to become available. When early checkin IS available it will cost you $50 (a bit excessive). Valet parking cost $10/night. There are also resort fees: $10/night. Tap payment wasn't available.Front desk is very lively, helpful, & also multilingual.Not pet friendly.LOBBY, ELEVATOR, CORRIDORSThe lobby is large but still felt congested due to some of the design decisions, orientation, & seating. Elevators were slower than expected but are sufficiently spacious, with multiple functional lifts. The corridors were ornate & have a very pleasing color pattern. ROOM (guest room & suite)We tried the double queen guest room & a suite.We found both configurations to be comfortably spacious, with a high degree of cleanliness & ample storage for our extended stay. The design of the rooms is generally just really impressive with a lot to appreciate: high-ceilings, a myriad of seating options, great natural+overhead lighting, floor-to-ceiling windows, clear views across the city, blackout curtains ergonomic workspaces, & plush hotel stock.Nothing I can think to complain about... BEDThe mattresses are more soft than firm, which I don't usually enjoy but the bedding was too good to protest. Soft, cozy, clean, & better than most brands with self-described "premium" bedding.One thing I didn't love was the choice of metal/aluminum base; just too noisy & atypical.BATHLavish & indulgent bathroom designs in guest rooms & suites, with some of the most impressive shower installations I've experienced in my last ~70 stays: high quality fixtures, tile, & accents all throughout.No pre-stocked shower sets but there's a plethora of Whish toiletries provided for your convenience. The bath robes are also with the hassle of requesting.Yet It's not without a few flaws: towels are on the smaller side, the water pressure is a bit weak, & the OSFA slippers did not fit me (size 11)TV & ENTERTAINMENT42" LG HD flatscreen on swivel base (guest room) or rotating entertainment center (suite).The entertainment setup in the suite was more fashionable than functional; not as accommodating as the guest room counterpart. Most of the built-in services didn't work & other integrations wouldn't connect. I wish they did less with the set top box because the apps are a hassle.WI-FI & CELL RECEPTIONComplimentary WiFi is unencrypted but performs very well! Solid for work & streaming. Verizon cell service was adequate & reliable in the building/area.--Nerd Stats--56-81 Mbps download 36-46 Mbps upload0% packet loss9 ms latency3 ms jitter--Performance--Video streaming - goodOnline gaming - averageVideo chatting - good FOOD & DRINKStarbucks is no longer on-property, which is disappointing but thankfully it's a DoorDash friendly location. Rooms are equipped with the status quo mini coffee bar & a medium mini fridge.There's a restaurant onsite but it's not particularly accommodating for multiple food allergies so we didn't partake in room service this time. If you're craving junk food, there's also a mini market in the lobby.NOISEThe sound proofing is solid. It doesn't completely dampen the city noise found in downtown LA (police, ambulance, etc) but it does a good enough job.LOCATIONLots of convenience stores & restaurants within walking distance.There's varying amounts of un-homed that roam in the vicinity but there's a consistent security presence nearby. VERDICTDespite the spa still being (indefinitely) closed, I enjoyed this property WAY more than I expected & extended my stay a number of times. It's a feature rich hotel with plenty of indulgences & I highly recommend it for your next staycation. 4.5/5 Room walkthrough videos:Guest Room: youtube.com/shorts/kfTIj…Suite: youtu.be/4yrpo3Of0uA?fea…“

“We tried a bunch of plates out between all the family, some plates we tried out were the am chowder, calamari rings, fish and chips, pulled pork sliders, sweet potato fries, asada fries and more I cannot remember the names of, but I did take pictures for your convenience. I also have all beers from the tap in pictures and videos.Overall, we were satisfied with service and portions that are OK for the prices.The staff was super friendly and quick, so I'd recommend you guys try them out.“

“Chicken tenders: my husband and I agreed that they were the best chicken tenders we ever had ! So juicy and tender!!Corn cheese: a little too sweet and watery. But super cheesy!JR. wings: not battered and so savory!Food was 10/10 service was on point, what more can you ask for.“

“We were up in the Long Beach area for the weekend and my husband wanted to watch UFC so he found this bar showing it at no charge! The place is big with lots of TVs, seating and games. It was a bit cluttered. Lots of stuff that were sitting in piles all over the place. It seems like it should be in a storage room but maybe they are short on storage. Other than that, it was fine. The staff was great. Like I said, it is a big place but we did not have a problem getting drinks or food. I ordered the pretzel bites and a Nathan's hot dog Chicago style. The dog was really yummy and filling. My husband ordered the quesadilla and he liked it. Said it was nice and spicy. If we are back in the area we will def return.“

“Saturday 12:00am (late-night out)Parking/Wait: There is a free small parking lot with a few spots in front of the place. Party of 5 was seated right away.Food/Drinks: Ordered a few dishes as well as drinks. Honey Butter "fries" (3.5/5) were really potatoe chips and nothing special. Budae jjigae (4/5) was a good size and fairly spicy. The fried squid (4.5/5) was the best dish we ordered. Long strands of tender deep-fried squid which were seasoned nicely. Expected calamari but was nicely surprised. They have some bottled beer (no draft options) that we ordered.Ambiance/Service: Cute interior with nice wooden table areas for each party. Not sure if this place is suitable for larger parties of more than six (did not see any larger tables). Service was great, didn't have to wait long for anything.Summary: Nice little place in K-Town with decent food options for late night munchies. Wish they had draft beer. They close late at 2am.“

“Amazing service, good prices, good drinks... Even better staff! I forgot my phone and the bartender, Daniel, was waiting outside with my phone for me as I was running back from a couple blocks over. I just wanted to express gratitude for this bar for hiring good people who actually care about their visitors.“

“My hubs comes here after work for a beer + bite during the weekday. It's a low key, local peeps, local vibe dive and he always leaves happy ? The service is attentive and prompt w no attitude. It's family owned so maybe that's why. Good, honest, hard working customers just grabbing a brew after work and families grabbing a bite at night ? I was a lil fancy on a recent Sat night + also fit in. They welcome all vibes ?“

“I'm giving a full five stars because it's genuinely what it claims to be: a tavern. This is not a national chain of tavern replicas. It's the real thing. Wirtshaus Roter Löwe would be a more accurate name. The menu and beer selection is exclusively German. The food was okay. It would not be my first choice for a fine German meal. But it's a tavern, so I'm okay with the three entries we were served. They had 10 German beers on tap in a broad range of styles, including the excellent Hofbräu Delicator, which I had never previously had the opportunity to try. There's upper and lower seating. The lower area is the better choice for a tavern atmosphere. The furnishings are solid, comfortable and well worn. The single bartender/waitress in the lower area was overworked, but still friendly. The restroom needed cleaning and the carpets are worn, but it's a tavern. If you're looking for the real thing and not a sanitized replica, this is a solid choice.“

“For vegan food this was great!! I've never been to a vegan pub before. It is a self serve place, you go up to the bar place your order and they will bring it to you. The bartenders are really nice. I loved the decor inside and there was really nice outside seating. I would honestly come again, the food was pretty good and so were the drinks!! I really liked the strawberry freeze :)“

“We have been here at least a dozen times over the last few weeks due to our house being renovated while staying at a local hotel.Everything from the breakfast to dinner and their beer selection has been amazing. Our favorites are the Chicken Caprese, Reuben and the Miso Salmon. Their fries and desserts are great too!“

“Absolutely great location, great service from the server who guided me through the menu for the first time she was great! I ate there and ordered out for the fam, we love the onion rings lolParking: Parking is great I really like the open spacious parking, it'll get packed at some point but it isbare able.“
