The Prospector

2400 E. Seventh St.
Long Beach, CA 90804
562-438-3839
The Prospector's super intimate digs serve for the perfect spot to meet up with old friends and make new ones over a few drinks and live music. Its small stage is a popular one with local favorites. The decor is a little odd--but if you like stage coaches and rock walls littered with alcohol paraphernalia, then you'll feel right at home. The place has a "dive bar" vibe to it, but actually serves as a family restaurant during the day time, often serving up early bird dinner specials to the elderly who like to eat their steaks under the watchful eyes of the old miners pictured in the antique photographs lining the walls of the dining room. Whenever there isn't a live band, karaoke or DJ spinning the latest indie rock, multiple flat screens broadcasting everything from sports to MTV are always on.

The Inside Word on The Prospector

  • KevinP
    Great music, delicious food, cheap drinks, good people!
  • RyanC
    This is a cool place to see up and coming bands and get cheap drinks. It's in sort of a dodgy neighborhood, but I've seen great bands such as Monsters Are Waiting and The Watson Twins for under $10. Get here early and you will get a up close encounter with the band. Sometimes DJ Velvet Touch spins in between sets... super cool DJ.
