Great baked goods, lunch and breakfast menu, and Intelligentsia coffee on offer. Free wifi but the place can fill up quick on weekends. Always worth the short walk down for their pastries.

Drinks & Nightlife

Great DJ nights and fancy cocktails. This place can be a crowded scene on the weekends but a chill lounge on the weekdays. Careful: cocktails are no joke!

Unpretentious Hollywood lounge with ample space and privacy. Lively enough for a good time but not so lively you can't have a good chat with the person you came with. Great for a pregame drink before a show at the Palladium.
