Nestled in Hollywood's vibrant heart, Boardner's by La Belle is an intimate bar and club with a rich legacy dating back to 1927, when it opened as a speakeasy disguised as a hair salon during Prohibition. Relocated by Steve Boardner in 1942 to the historic Cherokee Building, a landmark designed by architect Norman Alpaugh featuring Hollywood's first drive-in business with a stunning original Moroccan tile fountain in its Spanish courtyard. This venue blends art deco elegance with a dimly lit, film noir atmosphere. Its expansion added a huge dance floor, state-of-the-art PA system, 17'x15' stage, and a covered patio, making it ideal for live music and events. Known for its weekly Bar Sinister goth and BDSM dance party since the 1990s, Boardner's draws entertainment industry insiders, locals, and tourists with themed nights like Blue Mondays and Club Decades. The low-key Hollywood Boulevard side street location fosters a welcoming, unpretentious vibe amid the neighborhood's buzz, enhanced by three full bars, a VIP mezzanine loft, and AV-equipped spaces for private gatherings. Featured in films like L.A. Confidential, Swinger, and Gone Girl, it remains a pillar of Hollywood history with a capacity around 500.
