Established in 1949, The Lighthouse Cafe has been a landmark to Hermosa Beach and the jazz community for many years. When we acquired it in 2020, this vintage local spot had clearly seen some better days. We wanted to restore the jazzy, speakeasy feel to what was once one of the greatest live music spots in all of LA.

You'll now find The Lighthouse with lots of warm wood tones, historical art, modern technology and a touch of class. The large scale collage wall includes photos of artists like Miles Davis and Chet Baker, who had once graced the stage years ago. The signage on the back wall pays tribute to the movie LaLa Land, which was filmed there in 2016. other updates include: a large LED screen behind the stage, a new sound system, cedar wrapped ceiling beams and tin ceilings. The bar was also restored, stained and topped with an epoxy resin to give it a beautiful classic shine.
