a list that will most likely change several times a month... here are my current picks!
santa monica: it takes a lot to drag me out here, mostly because of the stupid parking restrictions, but renee's is still a clear favorite. even though the last trip was a bust, there are still so many great memories that make up for 1 failure.
brentwood: now this is a toss up. 2 of my favorite bars within spitting distance of each other! bar food la, for their blue moon on tap, their irish bartenders, all night happy hour & their bacon relish & south for their thursday recession happy hour & mystery shots. both amazing deals!
westwood: hands down palomino happy hour!
culver city: if i must, it'd have to be saints & sinners. i could sit & watch the crackling fireplace for hours & the bartender's display of fire-eating is always fascinating to watch.
mar vista: true westside ghetto, lost & found, with their puppies on the wall, super salty popcorn & $3.50 drinks (regularly priced you don't even need to rush there for a happy hour.)
century city: yes i realize that listing this does make me a tool, but x-bar still has amazing fries, and summer nights by the fire pits do take me back to my agency days.
west hollywood: where all the cable workers hang out, barbea's with their strongbow & shuffle board always takes me down the carrot highway. where carrots are actually memories. of piano key belts.
mid-city: a new one barely making the list... sheddy's! more research must be done, but it was still love at first sight.
hollywood: this is a no brainer... cap city all the way!
silverlake: if i'm forced to hang out with the dirty hipsters, at least i know i can suck down a few good drinks at the good luck bar. plus it's big enough so i can easily escape the weirdo talking about his balls & sneak into another room.
downtown: there are so many to choose from, but to me there is always a clear favorite. seven grand, you stole my heart with your eastsides & as the local of my descent into rom-coms i'm forever yours.
