Abbey Road or Abbey Road? Let's Clear This Up
So, you're in LA, the city of dreams, sunshine, and apparently, a burning desire to find an abbey. Well, buckle up, because I'm about to be your trusty guide through this quest for holy ground.
There's Only One Abbey in LA (And It's Not What You Think)
Before we dive into the depths of LA's abbey-less landscape, let's clear something up: there’s no medieval monastery or gothic cathedral lurking in the shadows of Hollywood. I know, the disappointment is palpable. But fear not, for LA offers its own unique brand of spiritual experiences (or at least really good cocktails).
What you're probably thinking of is The Abbey, a legendary gay bar in West Hollywood. Now, I’m not saying it's as holy as a traditional abbey, but it's definitely a place of worship for many. With its stunning outdoor terraces, lively atmosphere, and a cocktail menu that could rival a monk's herbal remedies, The Abbey is a true LA icon.
So, Where is This Abbey, Anyway?
If you're still determined to find a real abbey, you might want to consider a trip to Europe. But if you’re more interested in experiencing the LA version, then head to West Hollywood. It's located at 692 N Robertson Blvd, West Hollywood, CA 90069.
Pro tip: If you're looking for a truly spiritual experience, try ordering their signature "Abbey Martini." It's like liquid prayer.
Abbey Road or Abbey Bar?
Now, let's talk about the other Abbey that might be confusing you: Abbey Road. That's the famous London street, not a Los Angeles landmark. So, if you're planning to recreate the Beatles' album cover, you might want to book a flight.
How to...
- How to find The Abbey: Use Google Maps or any other navigation app. It's pretty easy to find.
- How to enjoy The Abbey: Relax, have fun, and maybe order that Abbey Martini we mentioned.
- How to distinguish between The Abbey and Abbey Road: Remember, one is a bar in LA, the other is a street in London.
- How to avoid disappointment: Lower your expectations of finding a medieval abbey in LA.
- How to have a good time: Embrace the LA vibe and enjoy the unique experience The Abbey offers.
