West Hollywood is having a genuinely exciting moment in June 2026, with Erewhon's new WeHo location, a buzzy new café-restaurant called First of All, and the neighborhood's legendary nightlife corridor running as strong as ever — here's where to eat, drink, and spend your weekend right now.
What's New in West Hollywood Right Now
The biggest opening of the month is Erewhon's new West Hollywood location. The cult grocery and wellness café brought a grand opening with exclusive launch smoothies and prepared foods you won't find at other outposts. If you haven't been yet, expect a line at the hot bar and a serious crowd around the tonic bar — this is Erewhon doing what Erewhon does, only now planted firmly in WeHo.
On Santa Monica Boulevard, First of All has taken over the former Marco's Cafe space and immediately become a talking point. The name alone signals a certain confidence. Early visitors describe a room that feels both neighborhood-casual and carefully considered — good coffee, a tight menu, the kind of place that fills up by 10am on a Saturday. Worth getting in early while it still has that new-spot energy.
And yes, a Mariah Carey Christmas pop-up bar has officially opened somewhere in West Hollywood. It's as extra as it sounds. Festive cocktails, holiday décor in the middle of June, and a playlist you already know by heart. Seasonal absurdity executed with full commitment — very WeHo.
Where to Eat in West Hollywood
Bar Marmont at the Chateau Marmont (8221 Sunset Blvd) remains one of the most atmospheric dining rooms in Los Angeles. Come for a late dinner, order the burger, and don't rush. The garden patio is particularly good on a warm June evening.
Employees Only (7953 Santa Monica Blvd) blurs the line between cocktail bar and serious restaurant in the best way. The food holds its own — the bone marrow and the chicken are perennial orders — and the bar program is genuinely world-class. It gets loud and it gets late. Plan accordingly.
For a lighter, more daytime-friendly option, the new First of All on Santa Monica Boulevard is already filling that neighborhood-café role that Marco's used to hold. Grab a seat early.
Erewhon WeHo covers the wellness-meal-on-the-go category better than anyone. The prepared foods section and hot bar make it a legitimate lunch destination, not just a grocery run.
Best Bars and Nightlife in West Hollywood
The Sunset Strip is still the Sunset Strip. Whisky a Go Go (8901 Sunset Blvd), The Roxy (9009 Sunset Blvd), and The Troubadour (9081 Santa Monica Blvd) form a live-music triangle that has no equivalent anywhere else in LA. Check their June 2026 calendars — all three have active booking schedules and any given weekend will have at least one show worth catching.
The Abbey (692 N Robertson Blvd) is WeHo's most iconic bar, full stop. The patio, the people-watching, the cocktails — it's a neighborhood institution that earns its reputation every night of the week. If you're bringing visitors to West Hollywood, you start here.
Bar Marmont doubles as a late-night drinking destination with one of the best back-bar atmospheres in the city. Dark, candlelit, and reliably glamorous without being obnoxious about it.
For something more intimate, Employees Only on Santa Monica is a proper craft cocktail bar where the bartenders actually know what they're doing. It's busiest after 10pm and stays that way.
Things to Do in West Hollywood This Weekend
Catch a live show on the Strip. The Troubadour at 9081 Santa Monica Blvd and The Roxy at 9009 Sunset are both booking strong acts this month — check their websites Thursday morning for weekend availability.
Make a morning of the new Erewhon WeHo opening. Browse the launch items, get a smoothie, pick up something for the week. It's become a social event as much as a grocery trip.
Walk the stretch of Santa Monica Boulevard between Robertson and Fairfax. Between First of All, the boutiques, the coffee spots, and the general WeHo pedestrian energy on a June weekend, it's one of the better urban strolls in LA right now.
End the night at The Abbey or work backward from a late show at Whisky a Go Go. This neighborhood rewards staying out late.
