Definitively hidden in plain sight, but if you spot it or hear about it (say... from Yelp), you should stop and have some libations. I wouldn't use the term dive bar here because it's more classy and well put together to be the traditional visage of 'dive bar'; despite being hidden in plain site. Also, the menu is vastly different than any dive bar. The place has a great vibe, vintage-modern classic theme, great lighting scheme, nice patio space, and just has a great hangout vibe. The service I've received has been impeccable. ** CASH ONLY is really my only knock on it. I've never carried much cash since the advent of plastic pay and the world is increasingly cashless. So, your experience will be limited by the cash available in your pocket. read more

Nice intimate place to grab a quick drink. They don't offer food, but you can walk next door to the Tavern and bring your items over. read more

The Blue Room - Mezcalita - Lounges Near Me - Burbank, California

I've been coming to The Blue Room since I reached legal drinking age, and it's always been a fun, reliable neighborhood bar. Over 20 years later, I still make it a point to stop in with friends whenever I'm in town. It has now become a tradition that after the LA RIMS holiday party, our group heads down the hill from Castaway to The Blue Room. The cash-only bar is always festively decorated, and the bartenders are fast and friendly. The music is enjoyable without being too loud, making it easy to have conversations. The Blue Room serves drinks only--no food--so plan accordingly. If you're looking for darts or a pool table, you won't find them here, but the atmosphere and consistent quality more than make up for it. For smokers, there's an outdoor patio available. read more

I really enjoyed this place. Great vibe, our bartender i believe his name was John was funny and attentive. Met a friend for our first date here, because the tavern next door was super crowded. This worked out better because we were able to talk and get to know each other. They have tv's, jukebox and dartboard. CASH ONLY, but they have an ATM machine on site. Decent prices. Will definitely return. read more

I came here as a part of my friend's birthday bar crawl and the vibes were immaculate! There are big booth for larger groups, smaller tables, and an outside patio. It was pretty crowded when we went but the bartenders were attentive and made sure everyone was taken care of. The bartender who helped us was really friendly and talkative and we had a great time chatting with him! The bar is cash only but they do have an ATM in case you forget. Everything is reasonably priced and nice and strong. I tried an AMF because my friend ordered me one and it was exactly what I expected from an AMF--strong, sweet, and gnarly enough to mess me up. I had a great time and would love to come back! read more

What a great experience! My friends and I, really enjoyed the ambiance and drinks. The bartenders were very attentive and receptive to our requests. The lounge area was my favorite part of the place. I will most definitely be returning to this place! read more

I've been wanting to come to this place for years. But somehow I just never got around to it. I finally made it out this past Saturday. This place has everything I love in a bar ! Cozy booths, touch tunes "jukebox", friendly staff and great drinks. It was beautifully decorated for the holidays. Twinkly colorful lights everywhere. Whoever is in charge of decorations to do fantastic job! Note: This bar is CASH ONLY. If you don't have cash, don't worry. There is an ATM . But I advise to come with cash so that you don't have to pay the extra atm fee . You're also allowed to bring in outside food which I think is very convenient. The parking lot is small. We parked across the street at The habit and just walked over. No biggie. read more

Came here on a Thursday night and it was moderately busy. I like how cozy the booths and tables were. It's a small place, but we didn't have trouble getting a table. The drinks were very affordable, and the service was great. Parking is also easy since they have a small lot. Restrooms were tiny but clean at least. Cash only. They have ATMs inside. read more

Drinks were really weak and on top of that they had fruit flies in them. Pretty sure both our drinks had flies. I only dug the one out of mine. Seems like a cool place but just dirty. I would consider drinking something bottled if you come here. The bartender did come check on us a few times while sitting at the booth so the service is good but we left after finding the flies in our drinks. read more

The Blue Room - my lemon drop - Lounges Near Me - Burbank, California

They should call this place The Aqua Room. It's a cool ivy covered building with actual parking and some neat vintage furniture inside. But that is where it ends. The cocktails they advertise on the sign are lackluster. The music is trite. The patrons are D-list all the way. I'm not sure what ownership is aiming for, but it's either got to be a dive or a snazzy cocktail joint with actual great cocktails and a waitstaff that actually takes showers. Like it is today - it's a relic on life support. Aqua is a shade of blue, I know. But aqua seats and pleather is a little much. Makes me want to puke up my poorly made cocktail. read more

This is a little secret place in Burbank called The Blue Room. Little cozy bar. You can bring in food and no drinks. The service is fabulous.

Fantastic celebration goin' on tonight: it's the keyboardist Herman Jackson's birthday. What a turnout of patrons, friends and fellow musicians. Tonight's vocals and instrumentation was at another level. You could feel the electricity vibing in the air: mesmerizing, soul stirring, introspective, jubilant. Herman and his band were a tremendous musical vortex tonight: jazz classics, bossa nova, R&B. Dayuuum it was sho' am good tonight. read more

CLASSIC BLUE ROOM. The perfect place to go for live music on a Tuesday. I look forward to coming here to shake up the monotonous routine of Monday-Thursday living. Whenever I am in the mood for socializing and enjoying libations on a Tuesday I always come to Blue Room. There is couch seating which is comfortable but you have to come at the right time. CASH ONLY. The bartenders are dope and the drinks are reasonably priced. If you're in the mood for a classic dive bar you can do no better. If you're in the mood for something a bit lively, you get that here as well. It's usually always filled with down to earth people. read more

Cash Only!! Great spot for evening or late-night drinks. Impeccable service by the staff. Chill ambience and plenty of seating available.

Great old school bar, dive bar to be specific. Listening to Come and Get Your Love by Redbone, doesn't get much better than that!

came here last second after work with some of my friends to celebrate my birthday went next-door for food and that place was just as good. I like the no-frills about this place and everyone seems to be pretty cool and friendly. Highly recommend this place if you were looking for something chill for a big group read more

Beautiful spot with an old school vibe. Drinks were delicious too and prices were decent for LA. Great Job read more

First off it's a cash bar only with barely any visible signs stating so. Secondly, they take your order, make the drinks, and then tell you it's cash only just so you can use one of their multiple shadyATM's in the back. Yeah I'm good with not doing that. It's 2025 and if you're running a cash only bar you need to be more upfront and clear to patrons. I've been to bars all over the LA area that were dive bars. And this one was by far the shadiest I've been to. Can't recommend avoiding this place enough. Also, the decor isn't charming. It's dated and weird plus, the bathrooms were awful. Looked like the bar stole its design directly from a Miami Vice film set. read more

Dirty bar. Not the place you want to be. Not welcoming and the decorations are very underwhelming. Bartender was rude. When we walked in, everyone looked at us as if we were not welcome. Was quiet and no vibe. Drinks tasted sour and was cleaned with a dirty rag. We left after 1 drink read more

Cool vibe. Bartender was awesome. We visited from Sacramento and just found a random place for a drink. Glad we found this one!!

I love finding hidden, moody bars with a good liquor selection inside of industrial meat freezers. read more

Such a cool place, great music, perfect ambiance, decent prices, the bartender was real nice and this place is such a vibe! A total gem that I want to gatekeep forever but just can't!! It's so cool here! Went for a bday drink and we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly, it is small- but hey totally worth waiting for a booth or chair to hang in for a bit :) I'd recommend 10/10. read more

A cozy bar, with very reasonable prices, good music and an old school atmosphere. They have live music on Tuesdays. Cash only. Check it out. Cheers! read more

Step back in time to the groovy early 60's while sipping a classic cocktail. You'll hear Sinatra and Co. swingin' it on the jukebox as you relax on the puffy blue leather lounge furniture. Of course I had to get a Martini. It was great. Pretty classy & casual with just the right touch of divey-ness. read more

The Blue Room is a meeting place, that is half way point between a friend and my home, so we decided to meet here. With its small interior, blue neon lights, stiff drinks, jukebox and a few TVs with sports playing ...it was a decent dive bar to grab a cocktail and girl talk. Noise level is minimal. My friend and I could actually hear each other talk here. Ever been to that kind of bar?!? Anyhow... Small, free parking lot, decent small restroom and not overly crowded... No food served here, my friend ordered food from next door and they delivered. I'd pop in here again for a drink or two. Stay safe and healthy (mind, body and soul) Yelping out there :) read more

If you're looking for your new favorite dive bar in Burbank, look no further! Love the ambiance of this place, it's super retro and has been featured in many movies (look it up!). They have a TouchTunes jukebox, so you can play all of your favorite songs and darts if you get bored. There's also an outdoor patio in the back. You can bring your drink and have a smoke, too! If you're planning on stopping by, keep your credit cards at home because it's cash only! read more

Cash only! There's an ATM inside in case you need it. We stopped by here to kill some time before we had to fly out. Great spot to chill inside where it's laid back and has AC. Restrooms were a bit of a tight space but it makes sense considering that this this dive bar is from the 1940s. Plenty of spots to sit but the tables and chairs can also be a bit of a tight space as well. There's a jukebox for music and a TV you can watch sports on. Drinks were fairly priced and strong enough to give a slight buzz before we headed out to the airport. Bartender was very friendly and told my husband some history of the the bar. They have live music during the weeknights, which is pretty cool. Stevie Wonder had performed here last year and this bar has been used in a few movies too. There is a parking lot in the back so two different entrances to get inside. It's worth checking out if you love dive bars. We'd come back again. read more

Est. 1947- Come here with respect or don't come here at all I say! This is old school before the school. Definitely one of the coolest bar vibes around. It's all about the booze and the booths. No food, cash only and some of the best priced drinks in town. Tony and Glen hold down the bar with expertise in this family owned neighborhood gem. If you haven't had a drink at The Blue Room, then you haven't really experienced bar culture. read more

I was accompanying my friend and only got a water but the bartender (in the pic) made sure to come by and refill my water multiple times. He even brought us pretzels I'm so used to being ignored when I'm not buying drinks so this definitely won me over lol thank u!! The ambience was chill and you can tell everyone was minding their own business and having a good time with friends :) the crowd is a bit older but in this case I preferred that haha since I was able to catch up and have a nice conversation with my friend! It's a nice sit down spot for sure they also have an atm in the back! read more
