The low-key facade and menagerie of door knobs disguising the entry makes this bar a true hidden gem . The drinks are expertly crafted, food is great especially the fried PBJ and staff really friendly .

Very classy ! The drink were amazing, delicious & fresh! Awesome staff & great atmosphere! Definitely will be coming back!
Ktown's got speakeasy-style drinking (R Bar , anyone?). Lock & Key now has food service (that's rumored to be pretty good), so that puts it at the top of the list for us. Read more
Good vibe. Sort of small due to the location and because it gets pretty packed in here. If you're anything like me and need your space in a crowded club, a table may be a good investment.
love the speak easy vibe and extensive cocktail menu . bonus: you can order food from The Original Ramen Burger !
Super cool vibe, great music , awesome entrance, and love the open backyard . Drinks are slow to make though.
Fun dance spot with pretty good DJs and fun Sunday school day parties on Sundays but a bit disorganized as far as the line goes.
One of the best places to go out in LA. At least, once you're inside. Everyone is here to get down, drink and enjoy the 90's beats 😎
Wasn't excited about the required bottle service or $250 punch bowl purchase on Sunday at 5pm for outside tables ... But nice ambience and good drinks. Hostess was very "L.A.". Great low key spot
Make sure you get there early because the line gets ridiculous around 11pm on Thurs-Sat. Drinks are around $17-20, so pricey . But the music is good (hip hop , r&b)
Lock & Key isn't as great of a drinking spot anymore since The Line hotel opened up. Dress code is strictly enforced. Collared shirts and dress shoes for guys.
Amazing speakeasy bar with great drinks and staff ! Love the ambience as well !
Door men are douchebags on the weekends but this a great spot for middle of the week date nights .
Great food & unique speakeasy ! Put your dancing shoes on and get your liver ready -classy😉
Food, atmosphere and price were great!
Good luck finding the door. Once you actually do get inside, it's worth it. Really nice spot!
The doorknob to the far right will lead you into the bar (not telling you the exact one though...)
DJ spins some good jams . Drinks are fantastic. Never too crowded ... yet
Sunday's are the best. A fun speakeasy but definitely not my favorite one.
If you don't feel like guessing where the door is out of the bazillion doorknobs in the entry way, ask the door guy for help.
Ladies, wear shoes you aren't afraid to be standing around in. There aren't many seats outside . Also, don't do what I did (wear stiletto heels) because the planks outside will trap your heels.
There are no waiters per se, you have to order food with the bartenders , the guys in apron will be the ones who just bring food from the kitchen to your spot.
If you don't know what to drink ...ask the bartender to make u one..
The wings and the pb & j fried sandwhich are a must!!
Cool entrance. Well crafted cocktails , not so cool crowd.
Very fun. Great moscow mules .
Go through the front door... and then figure out which doorknob to turn to ACTUALLY get in.
Dress code is bizarre: they'll freak out if you wear a hat but allow cargo shorts ?
Busy late night crowd, good seems good, drinks are good, parking is tough
Bartenders are very knowledgeable and make great drinks here
cool concept, nice atmosphere, and chill weekday vibe. The booze seems watered down though.
Get Lust and Strawberry Mule was fantastic here!
If you like tequila and spice, order the Santa Fe cocktail
Really nice ambiance. Have fun finding the doorknob !
As long as you're not looking to every actually get anything to drink, you should be fine.
Great music , great drinks,great people
The coolest part of the bar is getting into it.
Fezziwig cocktail 👌🏻🍸
Find the right door knob
Try old money if you enjoy scotch
Its only jammin if DJ LADY SHA is on the ones & twos!!
Men need to wear pants and button up shirts or no entry
Ruben is awesome!
Men's bathroom is the one down the hall.
Good luck with all the knobs!
Never have I ever waited 45min in the cold to gain access to a bar .
Tries too hard.
Don't even bother. Bartender asked to pay before giving me my drinks. On a Tuesday night no less. Also took 20 minutes to get my $15 drinks.
The door guy is a cutie
Today's journey into time is Break Room 86. Loving the 80s music and distinct cocktails. There's karaoke and video games to play 👾🎤 a place you will definitely come back to! - Joel Colin
Love the ambiance and decor. Be sure to make a reservation at least 2 weeks in advance for a table (free) on the weekends or you'll wait over an hour to get in. - Lindsey Mancuso
Great atmosphere, DJ was playing all the good stuff. Place is small and gets hot quick. Don't carry more than you have to. - Danita C.
Good late night taco! Marinated pork is especially yummy - Julia Park
The cronut with nuttella and banana is the great one. Another cronut with peanut butter is yummy too. - Yuddy Hendranata
Three things. 낙지볶음 (spicy octopus noodles) 누룽지탕 (burnt rice soup) 요구르트소주 (yogurt soju). Yes. - Suzy Ryoo
