How is this place still open???? There is 0 ventilation or airflow. Not even the AC runs and it’s extreme heat inside. They don’t even have any plug in fans. Absolutely horrible venue, they need to renovate or shut

This place is rocking! Love me some Viper Room on a Friday night! The drinks are strong and the bands are good! This is a fun place to hang out and listen to live music! Love it! Happy Yelping!

Let me just say this rating to this great establishment is not because of the host or the environment of it.Both are really great!It is a reflection of their parking attendant.The bartender really wasnt cordial either.He should have had a better attitude.You work at 'The Viper Room'!It was an older gentleman with white hair who was my bartender.But what I really want to focus on is that weird parking attendant.Well after much thought we chose the parking lot across from the viper room.I thought it was less and the man was very nice.I proceeded to take money out of the atm across from it.With that the pa of the viper room comes to question me.Asking what is the logic behind my Decision to pay for parking across the way.He was very confrontational.I politely said oh I thought u said it was $32.He said no that it was $20.I said nicely oh I didn't know that.Because of my kind attitude he backed off.I think it is ridiculous to be asked that question in such a rude manner.If I remember correctly I am in America.I can do whatever hell I want.And if I want to choose to park elsewhere I will!They shouldn't have a person like that representing their establishment.Especially because it is such a great place!!I really enjoyed interacting with the host that greeted us!She really made me feel welcomed and had such a wonderful attitude!The establishment is really nice.I can tell why Johnny depp owned it at one time.Super cool place!Its so cute and small.And really makes u feel that vibe of West Hollywood.And that Dj had all the good music playing!All around cool atmosphere.I loved that they had incense burning in there as well.That bartender could have been nicer when I asked for a michelada.All I'm going to say is I've had the best michelada in Beverly Hills .So let's just leave at that.That attendant and the bartender ruined it for me.Well for awhile cause like I said the rest was exceptional!I would definitely go back!But I wouldn't choose to park there again:)or get served by that same bartender:D

I know it's "historic" but what a dump. If you would allow half the crowd and charge a little more for tickets so there is enjoyment in watching the show. You can barely move and it was super hot in there and it was 50 degrees outside. You have to stand the whole time because the booths are high dollar, which is fine. But a nice chair somewhere would be cool. Anyways, won't be returning here

This place needs to be updated badly. Bathrooms are horrendous and unusable. Reeked of vomit & defecation. No one cleans them while this place is open.Place is hot and humid with hardly any ventilation. Sure this place has history & musicians need a place to perform… but this place needs some care. Management seems to be neglecting the basics.Also make sure to ask for earbuds for protection. Sound is way above 105 decibels. Save your ears, this place will give you hearing loss.
Great service. Everyone working at the venue was attentive and welcoming. Would give it a 5/5 if the audio was lowered just a little and if the cigarette smell didn't waft into the venue as heavily as it did.

I went to The Viper Room last night for the first time ever. I went with a friend to attend The Emo Night Tour event. The vibe of the crowd was good. I liked that people were allowed to go on the stage and dance. There was a good sense of community amongst the crowd. The event was fun and enjoyable. The Viper Room is a small venue. It's definitely historic. I love that it's located on the Sunset Strip. I love it's past connection to popular rock artists, socialites, and Hollywood actors (RIP River Phoenix). My gripe with The Viper Room is for the door attendant working the entrance off Larabee St. on my visit. The door attendant had a bad attitude. She talked to me and other guests in a rude tone. She even warned some guests as they entered the venue's hallway before me not to talk sh** about her because she can hear them. The attitude I saw and received myself left me disappointed. Luckily, she was the only staff member who seemed to be an issue.

Taking advantage of bands with a pay to play model. Not worth anyone’s time anymore.

Such a dope and iconic location! We had so much fun checking out this infamous bar in West Hollywood! The band "Jeremy Sullivan" who performed the night we were here were absolutely incredible also! Such a nice surprise seeing them perform live! Great/strong drinks too and everyone who worked here seemed really nice and on it. So glad we got to check this place out! It was awesome! Highly recommend for a night cap and some good music!

Been living in LA for years & it only took my cousin with a Johnny Depo obsession to get me to finally come to the Viper Room. So glad she did! It was so fun & such a good vibe. The upstairs music was great!! And then if you want a little quieter vibe the smaller downstairs bar has awesome singer songwriter type music. Loved it & I'll definitely be back
