Where is the Best After-Work Bar in Los Angeles, California?
I always liked this spot; cool decor, attractive (if a little pretentious) crowd, just a fun hipster scene. That all went sour the last time we went. The bartender was noticeably drunk first of all. It took him several times to make my rum and coke (how hard is that?!) and had to keep asking what we had ordered. My friend was buying the first round. The total was $19 and all he had was a twenty dollar bill. He knew $1 tip wasn’t cool but the guy HAD messed up our drinks several times, and that’s all the cash he had. The drunken ‘tender held up the dollar and was like, “Oooh thanks” and kissed it all dramatically. I’m sorry, but that is just plain rude and unprofessional…not to mention being drunk on the job. It just left a bad taste in our mouths…or maybe that was the poorly mixed drinks.Pros + Fun decor, cool people, loud musicCons – Rude staff, long wait
What a cool little joint!Little Bar isn’t that little, not huge, but certainly a good size to deliver a satisfying experience and is a nice warm place to get together with a group of friends and while away a few hours getting sozzled.There are a bunch of booths, including a great one tucked just to the right of the entrance that can seat 8 – 10 peeps, is close to the bar and allows you to people watch (which I am partial to doing now and then)The barmaid was friendly and cute, and they have darts, which I suck at, but who cares? They also have Karaoke on a Monday, and have a jukebox that has a good selection of tunes.The great thing about this bar? Not a douchebag in sight! Which was VERY nice. Pros + Cool vibe, good beer!Cons – Parking can be iffy
For the price pf a well drink, hands down the best. As to the crowd, great people that are real. No “BS”, just there to drink and enjoy. Now 5 stars to the Bartenders. Matt, Little John, Leonard and Mario. They are great bunch of guys, sever drinks way better then those fancy fake clubs. That serve you water down mixed drinks for high dollars. Nope for the best long time bar, it’s the Blue Room for Me. I’ll be in soon, so please have the Jack Daniels and Coke at the ready. Robert Juarez
Heavenly Mac n Cheese. Crispy baked cheese on top with warm gooey goodness on the bottom!Enjoyed the versatile seating areas from a casual loung area to a formal dining area. Staff is very friendly but the fountain soda’s were a little odd when I had dinner there.Pros + Heavenly Mac and CheeseCons – None
Went there with a bunch of friends one day after work. Really fun atmosphere, and after a few drinks Nic took us back to the fridge. That of course got lots of laughs and actually quite a memorable experience. We put on furs, which to be honest i don’t normally do so that by itself was an experience, and then had some tastings back there. Its sets the right mood, and the appetizers we’ve had tasted even better afterwords. all in all, a great place to go with friends and/or co-workers. Pros + Fun in the freezerCons – I don’t look good in furs
