The Abbey - The Abbey is the creme de la creme of West Hollywood. Though it's ostensibly a gay bar, it transcends labels, even on the gayest of nights--for example, the annual Halloween costume contest. Urbane clientele, both gay and straight, sip decadent signature martinis out on the stone patio by the fountain or in the white-curtained cabanas by night or day. A $2 million, 4,000 sq-ft renovation and expansion secured this place's rep on the WeHo rollercoaster.
