SpareRoom – Hollywood

On our lists of the best cocktail bars, activities and arcades & games in Los Angeles.

Two vintage bowling lanes with hand-kept scoreboards sit at the center of this lounge on the second floor of the Hollywood Roosevelt, tucked behind a bar stocked with a dozen or so cocktails and shelves of board games. Leather booths and bookcases fill the rest of the room, and a hidden photo booth sits somewhere among them. It opens most nights but stays closed Sunday and Tuesday, and reserving a lane ahead of time beats showing up and hoping one is free.
