For over 35 years, seven days a week, 365 days a year, this family-owned mini-mall bar has opened at 6 a.m., doing good biz, even early, with film crews, graveyard shifters and sleepless in Silver Lake-rs looking for a lowkey hole to crawl in.

great for east coasters missing home: dark, $5 drinks, a bartender who knows your name, amazing juke box , strong mixer-for-color-only drinks
Sunday night karaoke . Probably the best in the city . The people are awesome. All great and unique in their own way. And not the typical music selection. These people have good taste.
Def a dive bar , but they've got stiff , reasonably priced drinks, good music , and it's air conditioned . Make sure to bring cash, though.
One of L.A.'s quintessential dive bars (several are in this vicinity), the Drawing Room is a great place to get a night started...or draw it to a close.
Sometimes they have free hotdogs & food there. Always good people - cheapest bottle pbr in Los Feliz.
Some of the cheapest drinks in the hood. Stellar Sunday night karaoke too
Just blocks south of here David Wark Griffith filmed The Birth of a Nation. It was premiered in Los Angeles on February 8, 1915 and is one of the most successful and controversial movies of its time.
Diviest dive I've been to in a while. Not bad. Not bad at all. You'll probably meet some interesting characters.
Good times! Sit in the back left near bathroom . It is comfy ..
Cash only dive bar . ATM in the back
Classic dive bar .
Unlike half of L.A., it doesn’t matter what you look like at this bar . Maybe that’s why the drinks are so cheap , yet so strong. Go to? Whiskey soda , although, not sure how much soda you’ll taste.
The red stripe tastes likes its been sitting in the sun for 3 weeks, other than that its a sweet bar !
5 plays on the best juke box for $1!
A charming dive with stiff drinks.
