Long Beach

Harbor breeze, 2nd Street strolls, and neighborhood lounges that know your name.

The LBC keeps it neighborhood: a cigar bar tucked on Belmont Shore's 2nd Street, a Naples Plaza hangout where the regulars hold court, and an east-side lounge for the after-work crowd. Twenty minutes from the LA lounges, a world of its own, and the South Bay is one bridge away.
