Library Bar

On our list of the best cocktail bars in Los Angeles.

Shelves of books line the walls at this Downtown bar, paired with leather couches, dark wood and a neon-lit bar that plays against the study-like room around it. Cocktails carry literary names like the Adventures of Blackberry Finn, and the kitchen runs pub food, a bacon cheddar burger, house fries, a buffalo cauliflower plate, into the late evening. Thursday through Saturday nights bring a DJ, with no cover charge.
