A cocktail night in West Hollywood

A proper drink between dinner and dessert.

10 spots · Jump to the list

These are bars you go to for the drinks themselves — a considered menu, careful technique, a bartender who can make you something that isn't on it. They sit best in the middle of a night: after dinner, before dessert, or as the nightcap. Restaurants with a strong bar are on the restaurant lists instead.

This guide ranks 10 cocktail bars in West Hollywood. Editors' picks come first, then the rest by rating, and the plans below build a whole evening around the best of them.
