Club Fuel

If you're looking for a WeHo meat market...THEN GO TO WEHO. Fuel has finally learned to cater to its actual clientele...people who love to perform, enjoy films, live music and work in the entertainment industries who happen to be (mostly) gay. The staff is friendly, the bartenders know how to pour and the owner is an all around great guy. Unfortunately, the last owner (when the place was called Apache) ran things into the ground so badly and was so universally hated by both staff and clientele alike that it's been a tough road for Fuel to reclaim its business. But I urge you all to check it out for a wonderful alternative to the flashy WeHo same ole same ole. With karaoke a few nights a week, the uber-buzzed ""Fame at Fuel"" singing competition every Friday, I.D. night on Thursdays (your pro I.D. gets you discounts), live music and free barbecue on Sundays and a brand new New York-style show tune video night on Mondays (the ONLY of its kind in L.A.!)...there's always something interesting going on and the cover is ALWAYS cheaper than anywhere in WeHo, when there's a cover at all. And yes, for the die-hards they still have underwear night on Wednesdays AND dancing (complete with go-go boys) on Saturdays! Oh...and parking is free...it kinda stinks (you may have to walk a little), but still...FREE. There is optional valet on Friday and Saturday nights. Pros: If you hate WeHo or are just sick of it, this is your new home. Cons: Not a huge fan of the decor inside, parking is difficult. more

The best fun I have had in a while. Underwear night, you check in your pants and shirt, walk around in your tighty whities and you get $2.00 off of every drink all night long. I am definitely going back next week. Hot guys, no attitude, lots of fun. Pros: Cute people, Awesome Staff, Great Music Cons: Parking can be tricky. No different than West Hollywood. more

The 3 big ""S""s apply to this place...Socialize...Sing and of course, the most important three letter ""s"" word is Sip...that's right I said sip... The drinks are great :-) more

Unlike most L..A. bars the bartenders at Club Fuel are not rude. The staff is friendly and interact with the customers. If you don't have an entourage...(but who doesn't), it's a great place to meet people and feel welcome by the bartenders. Now about the ""burly bartenders"" comment by one reviewer...If you mean they're not ""Manorexic"" then two thumbs up. Three cheers for the old classy Hollywood when men were strong and good looking and the women had class and beautiful bodies and the skeletons were all kept in the closet :-) Now it seems that it's chic for skeletons to roam the streets and frequent trendy clubs...Yikes, sounds like a horror movie..but I digress. more

There seems to be a cover almost every night for a CLUB in the VALLEY that doesnt have many people. Pros: nothing Cons: cover more

Great place to hang and meet people, eveyone is very approachable. Drinks reasonable and you don't have to deal with WEHO traffic, prices, parking and attitude. Pros: Fun, great bartenders, good prices Cons: music can be louder and dance floor could be wood. more

Forget about WEHO----Fuel is great! it just needs a Hot Latino night with a AAA DJ who knows how to play hot music more

I have been to several gay clubs/bars, this past saturday was the first time I stepped into Fuel. The cover price is awesome only 5 dollars, the drinks prices are great as well. But overall this club is a waste of space, and it has no purpose. Its a very small place, nothing stands out . The people who were there, were bores! Everyone was just sitting around the bar not really doing anything just sitting. The dance floor.. if you can even call it that.. was EMPTY!!! I think most of it has to do with the music. That DJ had the worst music rotation. Sure its cheaper to go to this club, money wise.. and well entertainment wise. It may cost more as far as parking, drinks, and the cover.. to go to WeHo.. but its well worth it! Club Fuel is BORING! Pros: Cheap cover, no parking fees Cons: music, pretty empty, rude owner more

Friday night's promotion is by far the busiest night at this place!!! From what I've been told, the promoter has been doing Friday's there since December, and has managed to tranform the crusty older crowd into a bevvy of young hotties! The club owners have helped by staffing the place with shirtless boys that rival ANY WeHo bar. Friday's have a dimly lit, ""red light district"" feel, complete with black velvet curtains throughout the place, red candles and lights, and the hottest crowd of guys you'll see here! I went two Friday's ago with some friends from out of town... I hadn't been there since summer... we sweat our asses off dancing with some of the hottest guys, and although it was packed, people didn't have the pretentious attitude like some of the weho places. I'm definitely making this a regular stop for Fridays! Pros: Cheap Drinks, HOT Guys, Awesome Music more

this place is so much fun! whenever we head to fuel we always have a great time. super fun dance music, hot dancers, and super friendly staff, plus it's totally low attitude and just a good time. if you've never been check it out. we've been there on thursdays (hot hot lesbian night-hope it catches on), fridays (fun dance night and hotties abound), and saturdays (super fun!). we're gonna check out some of the other nights and try to get down for a happy hour or two. the underwear one sounds fun! more

Club Fuel usually caters to men but on Thursday Night there is a great lesbian night called FLIRT. The drink specials are great and cheap, the music is amazing, and the women there are sweet, good looking and just loads of fun to hang out with. It's not your typical club in Los Angeles where we all just stand around. What's so fun about this place is that is fun, and there are things to do. If you don't want to dance you can play pool or darts, if the music is to loud go on their outdoor patio where it's quite and comfortable. They have contest, prizes, amazing giveaway and a fantastic cabaret show with the most beautiful women. All types of women hang out here if you're into butch, lipstick or whatever you will find it this night. Pros: Good Vibe, Fun Place, Inexpensive Cons: Small more

I waited until my 4th visit to rate this place. Every-time I feel the need to ask the bartender ""where is everybody?"" I always get a recommendation to try a ""better"" night or time. I have followed that advice only to be repeatedly disappointed. The Valley is full of ""family"" but I guess everyone still likes the schlep over the hill to WeHo. The few people standing along the wall make this place feel more like a Jr. High Sadie Hawkins than a gay dance bar. Note to management: loose the cover charge on slow nights. It sucks to pay $5 to find out there is only 6 people in the bar. Pros: good DJ, close to home Cons: no crowd, small dance floor, boring more
