A Chiefs Bar in Los Angeles or Orange County, CA

[Booyaa58]

I'm looking to watch Chiefs games with fellow fans in Orange County or LA County, can anyone out here recommend a sports bar in So Cal?

[Booyaa58]

How about the Yard House in Costa Mesa or Newport Beach?

This depresses me... I am spending more and more time in LA for work and haven't been able to find decent sports bar. All my friends out there have the ticket and just sit around by themselves, drinking coffee and texting one another.


shoot me.

I've been to Orange County a fair bit and haven't seen one with Chiefs fans. There's some little sports bar that I've been to in Newport that's right on the main strip that's fine, but it's got a capacity of about 50 people. There's another one on the Balboa peninsula that's larger and kind of showy (lots of glass so I can see the TVs inside), but I haven't been there.

Where in Los Angeles?

There's Yankee Doodles and Barney's on 3rd Street Promenade, Dillon's Irish Pub, Big Wang's & Capitol Sports Bar in Hollywood, Yardhouse at L.A. Live, Champs in Burbank and on and on and on.

There are sports bars everywhere. There just aren't "Chiefs" bars.

If you go to a sports bar, you'll probably be in luck this weekend since the 49ers are playing but then again, it's probably on local TV this weekend.

That's not true.

We have one in SD.

It's called KC BBQ and its right there on seaport Village near downtown. I use to go there to watch the games before I got DirecTV.

BTW, their BBQ was terrible.

My 2 year old daughter is already into watching football with me.

During the Monday night game, she repeatedly chanted "Go Chiefs!" and put her hand in the air.

I think it's genetic.

At the beginning of the 2008 season I taught my 2 year old to say "Touchdown Kansas City" after each KC score. By the end of the season, she had forgotten how to say it.

A few of you guys in LA area should just pick a bar and make it a Chiefs bar. That's what we did in Dallas.

That's impossible because people from KC are outnumbered by at least 10,000 to 1 in Los Angeles (if not a 100,000 to one overall) by guys from NY and Philly.

There used to be a huge sports bar on Sunset called Dublin's and I'm not joking, there would be 200 guys there for Jets/Giants/Philly's game and *maybe* three people, including myself, there to watch the Chiefs. It sucked ass.

The Sunday Ticket OTOH is awesome. It beats the hell out of waking up at 8:30 am to try to get to a sports bar by 9:15 to get a seat.

In the San Fernando Valley there is a few good sports bars.

The Rack
Yankee Doodles
Champs as mentioned

Some people say Hooters, but i found it to be lame. The girls were nice, but everything else blew.

There are some smaller neighborhood bars too, but none of them are Chiefs bars.

I would be down though to pick a bar and meet up there. I have ticket, but it would be a lot more fun to watch the game with actual Chiefs fans rather than just having my GF look at me like im a maniac who forgot his helmet.

This.

That and it's impossible to head to a sports bar Sunday morning when you have 3 kids at home. It's awesome being able to watch the Chiefs with my girls.

I went to Leo's All Star Sports Bar in Montrose (North Glendale) this past week, and while there was only one other Chiefs group of 3, it was a fun place with nice people. The owner is a Dolphin's fan, so a good group of them, and there was a smattering of eagles, bears, and packer fans, but no dominant group, and only one raider fan. It is pretty small, and the tvs aren't huge but there are plenty, decent food, and they actually had gluten-free beer, making them my new heroes.

It was really a good time. Only one asshole, a Bengals fan, and he was cheerfully mocked by all into silence. Has kind of a small town feel, very different from most LA sports bars.

It's on Honolulu west of the main Montrose shops, by a half mile or so.

I had to sit in the corner and watch the Chiefs on crappy 19" TV's that were 30 or more feet away from my seat for a DECADE.

And I shit you not, if there happened to be any other Chiefs fans in attendance at those sports bars, they were of the toothless reerun variety. And no, I'm not kidding.

I'd pay $500 a year for the NFL package if necessary.

With all due respect, don't ever say that again.

If I lived in LA I'd probably just go over to Paul Rudd's house to watch the games.

You'll have to check out Dillon's Irish Pub on the corner of Hollywood & Vine this year. They have $3 dollar beers on tap (like 40 to choose from), way above average food and more than forty 50" HDTV's. Valet's only $5 on Sunday and it's a great environment.
