About Us

Little Joy Cocktails, a neighborhood bar, is celebrating 60 years of operation. Over the decades, Little Joy has gracefully adapted to the changing faces and phases of Echo Park. As a local staple, it has transitioned from serving no-fuss cocktails to introducing an array of natural wines and local Californian beers, continuously reinventing itself. In 2023, Little Joy underwent extensive renovations aimed at making the bar more welcoming for everyone in a post-pandemic world. The renovations double the length of the bar and incorporate an open design, complete with expansive windows facing Sunset Boulevard. Guests can enjoy curated music, dj sets, karaoke, community events and weekly programming, while playing pool on the best maintained table on the Eastside.
