The Chestnut Club
1348 14th St, home to The Chestnut Club since 2014, offers a rare opportunity to acquire an established nightlife venue in the heart of Santa Monica. The property benefits from a Type 48 liquor license allowing live entertainment, DJ, and dancing — an increasingly rare entitlement in Santa Monica — and sits just minutes from the beach, surrounded by top dining and cultural destinations including Rustic Canyon, El Cholo, Petit Grain Boulangerie, Calabra, HomeState, Bluestone Lane, Tocaya, and the Eli and Edythe Broad Stage. Whether acquired by an experienced nightlife operator seeking a proven venue or an entrepreneurial buyer with a bold, next-generation hospitality vision, the offering combines operational history, an irreplaceable location, and regulatory advantage within Santa Monica’s dynamic dining and entertainment core.
