Old books and typewriters line the shelves of this cool Los Angeles bar. The library feel gives it a very unique atmosphere. The crowd is on the younger side, and the drinks are on the stronger side. Come for a great weekend of sophisticated cocktails and good music with a hip crowd.

  • Chill amongst walls of books with themed drinks like "The Sun Also Rises" or the rye/ sage/ berry/ lemon "A Moveable Feast" and discover if drunken novel writing was indeed your true calling.

  • Typical douche LA crowd most nights. Which is a shame as most of the employees are great people.
