Agave on Vermont Avenue
Mírate brings Mexican food and agave-focused drinks to Los Feliz. Its current menu and reservation choices help decide whether the evening is dinner, a drink or both.
The Valley has its own evening
Daisy Margarita Bar is on Ventura Boulevard in Sherman Oaks. The Fox and Hounds puts sports on screens in Studio City. These are different rooms for different nights. The pub’s opening can depend on the match; check the fixture you actually want.
Santa Monica or West Hollywood
The Bungalow Santa Monica has pool and ping-pong at the Fairmont Miramar. A past all-ages event does not establish ordinary family admission. The Abbey Food & Bar has dance-party nights in West Hollywood. Keep The Abbey distinct from neighboring Chapel events.
A West Temple cocktail stop
Thunderbolt pairs cocktails with Southern-inspired food. Its own schedule currently lists Tuesday closed. A current calendar is more useful than a bar award from a different year.
