📍 Leather bars in Los Angeles

3.2

Bar Stella stands out in Los Angeles as a leather-themed lounge blending retro charm with a modern twist, offering an intimate setting for cocktails and conversation. The dim, warm lighting and stylish decor—think plush sofas, a spinning disco ball, and a cozy patio—create an inviting atmosphere ideal for a relaxed evening. While service can vary, the craft cocktails are consistently praised for their quality and creativity, making it a standout for those seeking a refined nightlife experience.

The bar’s weeknight appeal may shine brighter than its weekend crowds, where slower service occasionally detracts from the experience. Despite occasional inconsistencies in hospitality, the overall ambiance—enhanced by thoughtful touches like lavender-scented bathrooms and attentive bartenders—solidifies its reputation as a hidden gem for cocktail enthusiasts. Parking and pricing reflect its upscale vibe, but the effort behind each drink justifies the visit.

Drinks were extremely slow to get, and maybe that's why the ratings are so low. But the drinks themselves were ok once you waited the 20 mins to get one. But what a cool vibe in terms of music, the the spinning disco ball, and the the comfy couches. My friend and I had a nice nightcap here after dinner. I'd return, but maybe on a weeknight when it's less busy / drinks are easier to get.

I never understand when bartenders at certain bars behave the way they do. What is gained by inhumanely treating a customer? The bartender’s attitude towards serving was as if he was the one freely giving out drinks and doing everyone a favor. Guess how his demeanor changed when a single girl came by the bar and wanted to order a drink? Avoid if you would like to get a proper and friendly service.

Cool, hip, stylish place to have some drinks. Decent amount of comfortable leather sofas inside. Also a nice little patio. Cocktails were delicious. Cocktails were $18 so a bit on the pricier side. Service was good. Friendly bartenders. There's street parking but you'll probably have to walk a block or two.

Cozy and romantic, dim lit and warm vibes. Great place for a catch up or secluded night. Plenty of couples staggered throughout the building and comfortable couch sitting areas with an elegant vibe. Clean bathrooms with lovely smelling lavender soap and flowers. You can taste the craft behind each cocktail. Kudos 👏🏽

Just moved here from New York and I’ve been on the hunt for a good bar and this hits all the criteria. Great service by Ryan. Amazing drinks mixed by him and Chip. The vibes were immaculate. Would recommend to anyone from here or not. 💘

I see many mixed reviews here. Yes, drinks are on the higher end of price, but ultimately, what counts is the experience. Do not be hesitant to try this place. This is my 3rd time coming here, and Chris and Matt both have always been attentive. The drinks are amazing. Seriously. I'm a beer drinker turned cocktail drinker because of this place. It really can't get any better. The taste of the cocktails is beyond belief. And watching them shake it up is, in and of itself, great to watch. This bar beats 33 Taps and Black Cat around the block. Trust me

Great and very cozy spot with nice music and cool people! Little bit short with stuff compare with scope of work! But I used to work in the same industry so apsolutley understand, but on the other hand to wait at the bar to ordet coctails (they are not cheap) and leave a tip at the bar - I think you should consider the price and service! Anyway, I had great time!
