Cool little spot next door to the Largo easy to miss if the door is closed but the address is accurate and easy to find. Inside it feels like an old bar not sure if there was historically a bar there in this building or if they intentionally designed it to be vintage. The wood all looked old and worn as if it had been there for decades. Decided to look it up and apparently this bar is the original location of the Coronet bar so it is truly old been there since 1950s. They operate it like a speakeasy but only in the sense there's no signage and when the door is closed you wouldn't even know it's there. Found a seat at the bar and ordered a fun beverage which was made expertly and quickly. read more

Creative and tasty drinks! Can get very crowded but people are respectful and make room for each other.

Regular cocktail bar, not huge. Drinks are not watered down, taste fine. Nothing exquisite either, great service tho. Bartenders are friendly. If you happen to be in area, it's not bad for a drink or two. read more

I used to love this bar and have been coming here for many many years (10+) but my experience tonight was horrible and I will not be supporting this bar anymore. You have lost a long time customer. We were out celebrating my friend's birthday (3 girls, one of which is clearly pregnant). We sat at the bar and tried to get a table but were beat to it. Eventually one of the women who beat us to the table told us they were leaving, and she asked us if we would like to take the table, so we did. We were enjoying our drinks at the table for several minutes before a very rude waiter came up to us and said he needed the table to seat someone else and proceeded to put a "reserved" sign on the table while we were already sitting there. I proceeded to tell him this is ridiculous as we have been sitting here and lost our previous seats. He said "yeah, too bad, then you can leave." This is extremely unprofessional as we had already been sitting for several minutes and had just ordered more drinks. In what world is it considered ok to take a customers seat, that was not previously reserved, to sit another customer. When he seated the other party, they could barely even fit in the booth and I'm sure they were uncomfortable. The waiter was extremely rude and had no remorse. Not to mention the bar tender took forever to take our order and the bar wasn't even busy, I have seen it much more packed in the past. Shame on The Roger Room. Now I see why so many of my friends stopped coming here. Do better. read more

The Roger Room is one of my all time favorite bars. Phenomenal bartenders, classy atmosphere, pleasant crowd, great music. They have the best espresso martini I have ever had (Black Dahlia). Their twist on a screwdriver (Spring Street) is also amazing. It gets busy but there is a reason why! read more

One of my favorite lil bars in LA. I first visited after a comedy show next door and I've been obsessed ever since! To me it has a NYC vibe which I love. The bartenders are nice and the martinis are 10/10! Every person I bring here loves it, highly recommend! read more

What a little spot! Perfect place to grab a cocktail before going out. The lighting is perfect. We went right when they open at 7:00 pm, and it was humming, but not overly busy. We got the Thug and Japanese Maple. Both were really good. You sit at a spot, and order at the bar. The staff is great. Professional, and they make good drinks. Bonus- the "hello kitty" on my Japanese Maple. We will be back! read more

This place is gross. Decided to go here on a random night and it was grungy. Smelled like beer/vomit inside, stuffy and stale air. Sticky and unkept. They must have great drinks or cheap drinks as it was bustling in there. Ended up leaving as it wasn't the vibe we were looking for. Bartenders seemed friendly and efficient. read more

Cocktails are really good. Liked the Spiced Mule and Japanese Whiskey. Service is a bit slow because they're busy. It's loud & groups love to come here. Be careful where you park. There's homeless right around the corner. read more

What a classy joint! A little hard to find at first but once you walk through those doors, you feel transported into a true speakeasy era bar. The bartenders were very skilled as many have mentioned. I enjoyed one of the best Last Words by far. 10/10. read more

I used to love this place, until last night & I will not be returning. The way we were treated by the bartenders was disgusting. My boyfriend and I were in the mood to have a couple drinks out and about. As a long time resident of the neighborhood, I suggested Roger room. I was excited to share this cool spot with my boyfriend, him having moved here within the year to setup his practice. There wasn't the usual person at the door checking IDs, however upon entering, we made our way to the bar. The first bartender working on the left with a man bun, screams through the bar quite embarrassingly, "ID'S GUYS", now granted we are both 35. I also don't understand why that needed to be announced through the bar when our bartender (who was not the person that announced us) could have quite literally just checked our IDs upon sitting down. We sat down, I ordered a martini, my boyfriend his NA cocktail as he was driving and doesn't often drink. My bf worked as a bartender during grad school and enjoying watching the cocktails be made, as they were quite a bit more crafty than what he was used to back in the Midwest. Our bartender looked at my boyfriend and said, "you ok man?". To which he responded yes, as he was. Mind you his behavior was normal so I'm not sure what the bartender was getting at. Typically, I use the purse hooks, however was unable to as they were occupied by the couples either side us when we got there, so for that reason, my bag (which was on the smaller side), was on the counter in front of me. The man next to me, ordered a martini at some point, and the bartender who was standing in front of me reached over with the filled martini (instead of delivering it by moving closer or in front of the man) and spilled it all over my $3000 denim bag. Fabrication for context- it's not a material that alcohol can just be wiped off of, as it seeps in to the denim. I'm a pretty reasonable person, and I didn't react really any sort of way, I get it, it's on the bar. However, instead of apologizing, the bartender shrugged his shoulders and said "you're kinda in the line of fire." Still not letting this get to us, my boyfriend and I continued our conversations and laughs. A bit later, another cocktail being made (for another party) involved some sort of stencil, which turned out really cool. My boyfriend said "woah, awesome!" To which the bartender then said, "you sure you're ok man, you need some water?" He responded he was just enjoying watching the cocktails being made. After we both finished our drinks, he got the check, tipped 20% despite the treatment and we left. We would have stayed for another round or two, had our service not been so rude and off putting, but I will HAPPILY take our business elsewhere. We did just that, and went down the road to Scarlett (new restaurant with full bar) which was stunning with a great vibe. The service was friendly and welcoming, with delicious. read more

This is such a cool bar, I stopped by for the first time before a show at Largo and you might miss it if you don't pay attention! Usually the line getting into Largo cuts in front of the entrance to the Roger Room so once you squeeze by and walk through the open door, you're in a pretty neat space! There were two bartenders working this night, super cool guys and offered good suggestions. I went with the Japanese Maple and El Gordo, both unique and bold drinks with subtle sweetness on the Maple and more tang on the Gordo. And they know how to pour, you can actually taste the alcohol along with the other flavor combinations so you know the bartenders know their stuff. read more

Amazing cocktails and amazing ambience. The bartenders here know to make a drink. The only challenges are, finding a table can be difficult, which is a byproduct of the great drinks and parking. It's street parking or valet, and this part of the neighborhood is usually busy. Good news is there is a norms in walking distance for post libation recovery. read more

The Roger Room - Gin Martini - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Cruised in here for a late night cocktail when we were in the area. I have a soft spot for speakeasies, and the interior is certainly retro and clubby, but the entrance is just like any other bar/club. Cocktails are interesting with lots of creativity if you want to go that way, as well as options for the more conventional cocktails. It is far to distant for me to make this a regular haunt, but it is a fun, somewhat offbeat option if you are in the area. read more

I took a chance reaching out to this bar for our engagement photoshoot, even though I had never been there before--just heard nothing but amazing things. From the start, management was absolutely immaculate. The general manager was beyond sweet, so generous, and made the entire experience effortless and welcoming. The environment itself is insanely cool--from the artwork and paintings, to the moody lighting, to the bar setup... every detail is a vibe. Our photos came out better than I could've imagined, and I'm so grateful we chose this spot. If you're ever in the LA area, this place is a must-visit. Trust me--you will NOT be disappointed. read more

Jazzy speakeasy. Cocktails are good and they have a little bit of everything. A bit of a tight space but it adds to it all. Service is good. Love how they decorate for the holidays. It's a cute spot to bring someone who is visiting. If you want seating, be ready to get there on the early side or be willing to wait another group out. Personally, I think this place is best for small groups (1-4 people) read more

Friendly and knowledgeable bartenders you can trust to craft a balanced cocktail. The atmosphere is refreshing, slightly grunge, order at the bar and no cover. Parking is right out front on the street and is usually readily available. I recommend sitting at the bar for the best experience. Admittedly, we've been here twice before when they've been randomly closed for the evening or it's been unbelievably packed, making us decide to go elsewhere. So, it's a good idea to have a backup plan just in case. read more

We popped into the Roger room on our way back from dinner because we were really wanting to go to a speakeasy. This place is very easy to find no trouble at all it's very small it was incredibly packed standing room only. Very difficult to get the attention of the bartender to get a drink , once we got his attention. His attitude was very stiff and basically quickly made our cocktail and shoved it in front of us. We asked for an extra jalapeño in the cocktail and he said "you don't need it. " We both laughed and thought is this an LA thing!!! The drinks we're tasty. But we would never come back to this particular speakeasy... not a cool vibe.... read more

I've been to Roger Room multiple times over the years and have always had a fabulous experience. The drinks are divine, the bartenders are conscientious, the space is chic and inviting. Honestly, what's not to love? It does tend to get pretty busy, so going early is your best bet if you want to snag a booth. But that's a small price to pay for such a fun night out! On my most recent visit I got The Black Dahlia (their version of an espresso martini) and it was rich and delicious. Definitely one of my favorite spots in LA! read more

Great service. Sat down fast. Drinks were fine. Only negative was the smell as soon as you entered the place.

Oh my god. Finally!. A real speakeasy feel with no sign just a green door. Very nice and fun service with amazing drinks. And no TV with sports - Love that!. A must stop!. read more

Dark bar with a vast menu of drinks. Came here after EP&LP to get away from the scene-iness, and this was a very different environment. There's indoor and outdoor seating (smoking allowed). There is one restroom stall available for women and it's a pretty small space, but it also makes it easier to make bathroom friends. They even have absinthe here. There are waiters that come around to take orders. The vibe is more of a sit down space. read more

I came here with a friend and we each got an espresso martini, which was delicious. The bartender was very sweet and friendly as well. I'm not a fan of dark speakeasy type places, so I would not have come here had my friend not wanted to come. That said, I had a great time and would def come back again. read more

Love their matcha martini. Love the vibe and ambiance, favorite place to go to while waiting to eat at sushi fumi

Was a little concerned about finding the entrance and parking, but I was easily able to find street parking and the door was open. I loved walking through the heavy red curtains and being transported into another time. The decor inside is engaging to look at and I loved that they already have Christmas decorations up. I ordered an espresso martini and it had a great balance of flavor and wasn't too thin. I was pleasantly surprised! I also ordered the old sport, which was served me in a Santa mug, which I greatly appreciated. The servers were attentive and helpful. I've gone by myself and wasn't in a super talkative mood, and I appreciated that they engaged with me, but did not encroach on my alone time. Would definitely love to go back! read more

The space is cute and the bartenders are attentive. I'll give it that much. But they axed their sole affordable gluten-free option (a hard kombucha), while keeping several canned beers. When I asked, there are no plans to replace it. One of the bartenders suggested this decision may have been to support cocktail sales. If so, I really think that logic is flawed. It doesn't disincentivize beer drinkers at all, and making hard liquor the only gluten-free option doesn't seem wise. But who knows - maybe the $25 cocktail is having a moment right now, and I'm just not clued in. read more

Made a reservation here for a Thursday night at 9. Easy to find as someone on the street as us if we were looking for the bar and pointed to the black door. When we arrived, no one seemed to be checking anyone in so we grabbed a table. It was a little cold and the bartender pointed us to a table where the AC wasn't blowing directly on you. The bartender went over the menu, answered our questions and then we didn't see him again to take our drink order. Or we did see him, behind the bar working and chatting. So we went up to the bar to order from there- which I recommend. They get busy. So don't expect table service. All of the cocktails were delicious. The people that worked there were very personable. Fun drink names and decor. Pretty cool place. read more

Really nice place however the drinks were not up to par. Two stars for how nice the place is but the drinks were a letdown. I dont mind paying for an expensive drink as long as its good but that was not the case here. Tried 3 different drinks and all were less than savory. Its unfortunate since the bartender was nice and the place is cool. Maybe it was a new bartender? In any case they should be trained to make drinks as this did not seem to be the case here. read more
