Carne asada fries are pretty good! Fries came out crispy, meat was tender and delicious. Really good execution. Only thing that would have made it better would be some guac!

I'm not late to the party

I love the vibe here, it's casual mixed with good eats and craft cocktails. It wasn't overly crowded on a weekday happy hour, we snagged a table indoors for a group of 7. We were here to show our So Cal hospitality for our dear friend, Dawne, who was visiting from the Sunshine State of Florida. I had the Disco Inferno Mezcal cocktail made with lime juice, agave and chili salt rim. We indulged on tacos, quesadillas and chips with guacamole and salsa. Order at the bar, you'll be given a number for the staff to find you to deliver food to your table. The food came in a reasonable time, it was tasty and good portions for sharing. There are TVs for watching sports, a pool table and an enclosed patio area (enter the patio from the bar area, cannot gain access from the outside). Street parking with meters (pay with coins or an app). Sincerely, Rosemary

Happy hour on a Wednesday was super chill. The menu easily highlights the HH prices which I appreciate since a lot of places hide it Parking: street parking - residential parking Staff: super friendly and talkative. Great community. Seating: you can sit inside which is kinda dark but once you get used to it, you can see the details on the location. It's super cool! Lots of details and fixtures which gives the place character. There is outside seating too which looks like you are behind bars which is fun Drinks: you have beers on tap, but I tried the margarita and Moscow mule. Both were classic and wasn't watered down Food: yummy nachos and pretzels!

The HighLow Bar used to be stables - lol however we are the ponies now. The bar is horizontally positioned across this lair and the room is pretty to accommodate a large sudden birthday or holiday gather or a spot to hit up before and definitely after the Tam O'Shanters within spitting distance. HighLow appears to sport a Karaoke room in the back with smooth jazz band for a small QR code cost amplifies into the main dining area areas where you can have your seltzer, water and lemon if you're doing dry af January or a very strong well crafted cocktail whether you're high or your low this is a space for you and it definitely gives that necessary anchor point to your Los Feliz or Eagle Rock evening that's that's kind, inclusive and warm welcoming.

So if you are arriving or leaving the TAM and you see this little bar sign sticking out across the street, go, because it's awesome. Cool bartender, great drinks and fabulous history. This place used to be the horse stables for the TAM. Check out the pics, including the picture completely made out of butterfly's...

Met some friends here for happy hour after work. The place was empty at 5pm on a Monday. No windows, dimly lit, high tables, booths and bar stools. Several items on the list for happy hour, We ordered margaritas all around and bought the entire HH menu. Some of my favorites are the guacamole, chicken quesadillas and tacos. I had a great time hanging out with friends here.

Pink drink - not sure of the name since my friend ordered for me - she asked the female bartender for the sweetest drink with vodka

I went to this bar last night for a friend's birthday gathering and it was a fun vibe! I just got a drink - I'm not sure what it was called but it tasted like a pink starburst. My friend asked the female bartender for the sweetest drink with vodka and this is what we got! Picture included. It was pretty good as I'm not a big drinker and didn't taste too strong in my opinion. This is something I would order again. My friend got the nachos - didn't get a picture but the table shared it and it was really good! I believe it was the carnitas nachos and it was both nachos and fries (double check though because I also didn't order this). I would definitely get this again if I went back tho! Service was pretty quick and they were nice. We had a huge group of people who were already inside. When we entered there was a gentleman who checked our IDs. He opened the door for us which was sweet of him. I personally didn't have much interaction with the workers, but my friend did accidentally break a glass and they were quick to spring into action and clean it up so props to them for excellent service and thank you. Ambiance was great too. It was dark, but fun vibes. Karaoke and pool table were good to have! Overall, a great experience and I would definitely visit again if I'm in the area! Great for friends for a night out.

A chill bar with great drinks and really good bar food. It has a nice vibe for a night out, but parking can be hard to find.

Rustic decor and comfy leather booths.

Why limit happy to an hour, especially when you're with good friends. Thankfully, Happy Hour is daily at The High Low (Mon - Fri 4 - 7 pm, Sat & Sun 1 - 5 pm). It was a rough week and I was mentally and emotionally drained, so I was grateful to meet the beautiful Bender sisters here for cocktails and conversations. I used to come here when it was The Griffin but haven't had a chance to come back since it's been under new ownership. It looked like I remembered - brick lined walls, lofty ceilings, and rustic wood accents. I was glad that the enclosed firepit was still there since it was part of the charm. There's also a pool table, an outside patio with TVs, Karaoke (Tues, Fri & Sunday), and live music on Mondays. We got a table next to the firepit and ordered from the bar. The bartender was friendly & engaging and he made a mean margarita ($9 during HH). We were vibing to the music. The playlist was fantastic, and the company was priceless. Just what I needed. *Metered street parking or residential side streets.

Guacamole and chips
Te-see B.

Another "happy, happy, joy, joy," happy hour hang out! Great vibe inside while sipping your cocktail and noshing on a few crispy fries:). Plenty of seats at the bar and lots of tables for larger groups. Bartenders mix a great margarita and are very friendly. Prices are reasonable. They have trivia & karaoke during the week. Check the website for exact day/times. *Plenty of street parking.

Dubbed the "Cheers of Atwater Village," Club Tee-Gee has been a staple in the community since 1946…read more The new owners remodeled it in 2017 and it's quite nice - retro décor, plush leather booths, & open-air windows. The vibe is chill & relaxed and there's a suitable selection of tunes on the jukebox. The adjacent Peacock lounge is equally charming and hosts stand-up comedy shows on Thursday nights and DJs on the weekends. (Conan O'Brien did a surprise gig here a few weeks ago.) The back patio is spacious with an outside bar & picnic style seating. I haven't been here in years. In fact, it was before the remodel. A recent trip to the Atwater Farmer's Market inspired me to come back. It was a Thursday evening and JJ was behind the bar. She was absolutely delightful! We had a great conversation while I sipped on the Happy Hour Spicy Margarita. During my visit, several locals stopped in for a drink and to say "Hi" to JJ. This is a great spot to get together with friends. I'll be back soon. *Metered parking or residential.

Now, I love SpongeBob just as much as the next person, however... they randomly threw it on the giant TV and it lit up the whole room. It totally changed the vibe and made everything weirdly bright for no reason. But besides that, I really liked how dark and chill the place was. Their drinks were great, the bartenders were okay, but one of them was a little standoffish.. nothing crazy though. It is what it is.

Why such a long hiatus? The tap list over the last months just hasn't had anything I've wanted to drink. It's been a lot of repeats of things I've had over and over or beers that just aren't appealing -- or, in many cases, both. The Glendale Tap used to have a fairly good turnover of new brews, but lately, it seems to be in a rut. Imports are pretty much never to be seen -- like everywhere else, sadly. Even out-of-state beers are rare. And on my most recent visit, at least half of the tap list was tapped out. IPAs and sours take up so much of the list -- stouts in the cooler months -- while styles like bitters, milds, (non-India) pale ales, brown ales, bocks, amber lagers, smoked beers, etc., get little to no space on the tap list. I still love the atmosphere of the Glendale Tap, and the bartenders there are the best. Prices are fair, and there's always something at least decent to drink. But I miss those fulsome tap lists with a variety of beer styles from far and wide. More and more, the Glendale Tap is becoming too much like every other beer bar. I know L.A. beer drinkers are extremely parochial with very limited tastes (basically IPA, IPA, IPA, and IPA, with some super sours thrown in), but I would hope the Glendale Tap could return to just a smidgen of its former excellence. Until then, I probably will be visiting biannually instead of bimonthly.

We sent it back to the kitchen, and I'm thankful that they were more than willing to cook it longer. It was much better when it came back. Pretty cozy decor inside with fun lore of the tables that Walt Disney would sit at depending on the occassion of dining. Staff is friendly and service is good, just the food falls a bit short for me for the price.

Highly recommend! Classic Glendale establishment!…read more The Famous has been under new ownership, a lovely woman, who has great new ideas for the bar. Lots of themed nights and engaging activities to really bring the community together. I love the creative and fun cocktails. Lots of asian themes but also traditional tiki drinks. Unfortunately parking may be a bit tough (you'll need to walk) - either street parking (paid in front), free street parking in the residential, or parking at the mall

(Drank 03/28/26 SA @ 6:00pm): How famous was this bar in Glendale?…read more After a late-afternoon film at the nearby AMC The Americana At Brand 18, my friend and I walked around a bit and eventually found ourselves at The Famous Bar. With the seemingly ever-changing landscape along Brand Blvd. in downtown Glendale, this establishment has been around since 2012 (which I believe was the first and only time I came here). Primarily known for its inventive craft cocktails and a killer whiskey selection, it was a nice place to sneak away into before or after your main event... or, maybe this could be the place to spend an entire evening. Would this bar famously make an impression on me to remember to return in the future!? PURCHASE(S) Fremont Brewing Dark Star Double Oatmeal Imperial Stout Beer 8.00% ABV 16floz Draft ($6.00 HH; Reg. $9.00): Dark brown color, coffee oatmeal roasty aroma, medium body, chocolate coffee oatmeal roasty toasty flavor, mouthfeel smooth finish, and coffee oatmeal roasty toasty aftertaste. This was a really tasty brew and my favorite of the two! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=ad_C9YTJYF9lVr2FOEQLkg 12" Margherita Pizza ($20.00 HH; Reg. $26.00): A simple pizza with a somewhat thin crust that was kind of cardboardy, the flavor was rather pedestrian with chewy mozzarella although the basil was fragrant and fresh. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=kdkvUttCLmMOAGQ1nyp5tg Figueroa Mountain Brewing Co. Danish Red Amber Lager Beer 5.50% ABV 16floz Draft ($5.00 HH; Reg. $8.00): Dark amber red color, malty allspice aroma, low body, malty sweet flavor, clean smooth finish, and malty sweet aftertaste. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=QQjsTWce5Lstcxj5PowrYw Steak Fries ($7.00 HH; Reg. $9.00): This was an impulse buy as something to pair with my second beer. A decent portion-sized snack, each spud stick was hot, steaming, and thick and came with a side of ketchup. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=GVoy0nzxFUL6rHWaxNdG7Q SERVICE We were warmly greeted by a sole young woman behind the bar who handed us a menu and directed us to sit anywhere. After a few minutes of reviewing the menu, we each placed our order at the bar, our drinks were delivered quickly while the food took mere minutes to arrive at the table. We had to approach the bar each time we ordered something, but any empty glasses and plates were collected at the table. Once we closed out our tabs, we were thanked for coming as we headed out into the night. Everything was chill and easy - thank you! PARKING (Varied; FREE this instance): I parked in the nearby original Glendale Galleria parking structure and simply walked over first to The Americana then to this place. Otherwise, there was limited parking along the main drag of Brand Blvd. and other surrounding side streets, the nearby Glendale Galleria II parking structure, The Americana parking structure that offered validation, numerous public transportation options, and rideshares - 'nuff said! ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A dark cavernous speakeasy-like place with open space, various tables and couches strewn about, and a large long somewhat decorative bar with an impressive whiskey selection displayed behind it. I appreciated the exposed brick walls which gave it that old-time feel with a few framed pictures hung on them. Minimal natural lighting came through the front doors and windows while minimal electric ceiling lights filled in rest. There was at least one projection TV where we watched the Dodgers game while music played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=SomLKsk1KVcemeOCHGOZfg ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL It was nice to slip into The Famous Bar for the first time in over a decade, and if I found myself spending time in downtown Glendale again, I'd consider another visit. Sadly, I try to avoid the highly congested area as much as possible. I loved the fact that they had a daily happy hour (4pm-7pm) and late-night SU-TH happy hours (10:30pm-close), so there was always a deal to be found. The drinks were the main reason you came, while the food was just an add-on. The prices were elevated, but you had a good menu selection of libations (nice local craft beer list) to choose from. The customer service was easy, friendly, and straightforward. I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $42.00 BEFORE any discounts/tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 4.0 STARS

My coworker's pick for a Friday evening, wasn't too busy and I'm not sure why?…read more A classic sports bar setup with a small outdoor patio, the space and service felt familiar. The people here were nice and had a corky humour to them. Our table got two sausage platters, frickles, lemon pepper wings, and a pretzel. There is usually an expectation for American bar food before you enter the establishment, and they all lived up to the hype. The textures were amazing, fried food was crispy on the outside, soft and juicy on the inside. Sausages had a bite to them and tender in the middle. Flavour profiles here were smoky, punchy, sweet, and vinegary. The lettuce mix under the sausages was a nice touch too. This fed four perfectly. Great variety of beer too! Loved the additions of a rice lager and a sour. A great spot for hanging out with friends, snacking, and snacking... and snacking till you realise that was dinner!

What a friendly local bar and a great place to catch sports. I watched one of the World Cup…read moresemi-final games here and it was the perfect destination. Hungary didn't make it to the World Cup this year so that was a bit of a bummer, considering my fam is from the old country. However, my second all-time fave, France, was still in the semi-finals. You see, I grew up watching Zinedine Zidane and to me, the World Cup brings back childhood memories and family bonding time. The menu items took me back in time. Much to my surprise, I noticed that there was a Hungarian kielbasa & a Debreziner sausage listed on their $10 lunch deal. I was shocked that I had the opportunity to debate over which one to pick. DEBREZINER sausage (in German) or for us Hungarians, is better known as "Debreceni Virsli" and made in the region where my dad's side of the fam grew up. It's often served cut up on the sides and has a richer color. For me, it's a bit juicier and there's more paprika in there. It's more along the lines of chorizo, if that's what your flavorbuds prefer. It's made with sweet and hot paprika, garlic, pepper, and marjoram. If my dad had been with me that day, he'd opt for the Debreziner. After deliberating for a bit, I decided to go with the HUNGARIAN KIELBASA and decked it out with grilled onions, sauerkraut, and jalapeños (very hot, stated the menu). The jalapeños rivaled the outside 100+ degree temperature. Thankfully, the cool AC made me forget it was one sweltering summer's day. Also, the Hibiscus Cider was crisp and made my experience and the lackluster game worth my time out. I loved how easy the ordering went-just tap the menu on the iPad and voila, you got the whole spiel. Service was quick and felt welcoming like I was at home in someone's living room with tons of TVs all around. Sadly, France didn't show up to play in the game until the last 5 mins or so. Spain obvi deserved the win and yes, this year's cup for their fancy footwork. The vibe was great and the crowd around me were locals on a first name basis with the staff. With awesome cider and food as tasty as I had growing up at home, I think I'll make it a goal to be on a first name basis around here during the NHL & NFL season.
