When making plans for your evening, there always seems to be a bit of difficulty deciding where to have dinner and then where to have drinks. Make it a complete no-brainer by doing both at Long Beach's Auld Dubliner. This popular nightlife establishment has been putting smiles on the faces of its many visitors over the years as it offers the genuine charm of a classic Irish pub and restaurant. Of course you can find the traditional corned beef and cabbage and beef stew on the menu, but also you can feast on such treats as grilled salmon, salads, and an impressive selection of appetizers, entrees, and desserts. And of course, the wide selection of beers, ales and lagers is second to none!

Hit the right romantic notes with your date when you plan an evening at the Long Beach Opera. Founded in 1979, this opera is the oldest opera company in the greater Los Angeles area. The group maintains a highly active performance schedule and maintains a repertory of over 70 operas that range in styles from Baroque to works from the twenty-first century. Check the website for specific performance and ticket information.

Amid the many places to see and things to do, the hustle and bustle of Long Beach is intoxicating and fun, but if you need a bit of a break, enjoy spending a little quiet time at the Earl Burns Miller Japanese Garden. This inviting garden attraction was dedicated in April of 1981 through the generosity of Mrs. Loraine Miller Collins in memory of her husband, Earl Burns Miller. Maintained in association with California State University Long Beach, the garden attracts several visitors who marvel at its lush landscape and colorful flowers.

When you read a story again, you pick up things you may have missed the first time. That feeling of revisiting great stories and literature is what makes Long Beach's Once Read Books an awesome and exceptional place. It really doesn't matter that someone already read the pre-owned book or vintage magazine you found here. What does matter is the fact that you can relive your favorites, both old and new, in this one-of-a-kind used book store. If you don't find exactly what you're after, the friendly and knowledgeable staff will be able to help you find what you're looking for.
