There’s “no better place to people watch than The Strand,” especially on Sundays. “It gets packed with lowriders cruising, families biking, and people getting their steps in.” Check out The Jazzy Wishbone, The Pour House, or The Moose Lodge to “listen to anything from punk rock to reggae and everything in between.
