The 6740 is a neighborhood restaurant and bar in the heart of Uptown Whittier, California, located at 6740 Greenleaf Avenue near the intersection of Greenleaf Avenue and Philadelphia Street. Opened in July 1997 by Whittier friends Mike, Dave, and Audi, the bar has grown into a local institution that has anchored the Uptown Whittier dining and nightlife scene for nearly three decades.
The kitchen serves scratch-made pub fare built around burgers, wings, salads, and tacos, including a weekly Taco Tuesday special, alongside BLTs, nachos, and a teriyaki bowl, with vegan options available. The bar rotates a wide selection of craft beer on tap from breweries such as Golden Road, Firestone Walker, Eagle Rock, and Lagunitas, making it a go-to spot for local beer fans as well as Whittier residents catching a game.
Beyond food and drink, The 6740 hosts live DJ nights, local art shows, and community events in a family-friendly, smoke-free setting with free Wi-Fi and wheelchair-accessible seating, drawing guests in for lunch, dinner, or to watch the big game.
