The Chestnut Club is Santa Monica’s spirits-driven cocktail lounge built on classics, personal preference, and a 400+ bottle back bar, intentionally free of TVs.
Built around the canon, the bar sets the pace while the kitchen complements. Expect meticulously executed classics and bar food designed to stretch the evening—another round, without discussion.
No TVs and low light – brick walls and leather booths made for conversation. Start with a classic to test the bar, follow the bartender’s read, and feel why the night lands differently here.
Birthdays, anniversaries, or celebrations without the noise. Sharp bartenders, smooth flow, serene environment and a room that holds your group’s attention all night long.
An intimate private room designed for hosted gatherings that favor conversation over spectacle, innovative cocktails, craveable plates, and a space that stays composed all night.
