The Falcon

Über diesen Ort The Falcon

The Falcon sits in the middle of the Broadway Corridor as the neighbourhood local — the gay bar that functions as a community living room rather than a nightclub or a themed venue. At 1435 E Broadway, between the leather-oriented Mineshaft to the east and downtown to the west, The Falcon draws a mixed crowd of Long Beach gay regulars across the age spectrum. The bar's format is unpretentious: good drinks, comfortable seating, pool table, regular programming without the high-production-value approach of larger venues. This is a bar where regulars know each other by name, where you can arrive alone and leave having talked to people, and where the community character of Long Beach's gay scene is more visible than at the tourist-oriented end of the spectrum. The Broadway location makes The Falcon an easy stop on a corridor walk that might start at the Mineshaft and work westward toward downtown, or vice versa. For visitors who prefer the neighbourhood bar experience to the nightclub format, The Falcon is the correct Long Beach answer.
