Description:
WESTWOOD. The focal point of this elegant New American restaurant is its 12-foot white sandstone bar, topped with teak wood; behind the bar, an ice-blue backlight illuminates a wood screen, producing a bamboo pattern. This statement of minimal, clean design is echoed throughout the restaurant's interior, as well as on the pleasant stone patio, which absorbs overflow from the relatively small bar. The singles scene is very much alive, so grab a flute of champagne or a minty mojito and get mingling. While there's no late night menu at the bar, nearby Whiskey Blue serves appetizers until last call at 1:30am. |

BEL AIR. With its inviting fireplace, cozy environs, and baby grand piano, the bar at the Hotel Bel-Air is definitely not for heavy partiers.

Whether you're dining at the Bel-Air or not, the lounge is always a terrific place to frequent for aperitifs or for after-dinner drinks. Live piano music played nightly helps create just the right atmosphere, too. |

Description:
BEVERLY HILLS. Try as you might, it's nearly impossible to name any place in Beverly Hills that packs in as many dealmakers and power brokers as the Polo Lounge. The bar is actually a piece of Hollywood history thanks to its roster of past and present patrons. Treat yourself to a martini or any other drink from the full list of cocktails, beers, and wines – you'll most likely leave with just as many memories of the atmosphere as of the drinks. Service is impeccable even if you're not a star. |

Description:
WEST HOLLYWOOD. Retaining its original touch of Gothic decor, this hotspot of gay and lesbian (and increasingly, straight) nightlife has evolved to include three distinct bars, a hip lounge, and several coveted outdoor cabanas. A relaxed coffeehouse and restaurant by day, The Abbey effortlessly transforms into a lively nightspot in the evenings. Elaborate and decadent martinis are the libation of choice, and the selection ranges from chocolate raspberry to caramel apple. Fortunately, there's plenty of great food to accompany your drink – grilled barbecue teriyaki salmon and penne with apple chicken sausage are favorite choices. |

Description:
WEST HOLLYWOOD. While La Boheme as a restaurant is known for its elaborate chandeliers, roaring fireplace, lengthy drapes, and touches of Gothic decor, it's also a terrific place to have drinks. Bar Tosca delivers a range of specialty cocktails, which patrons enjoy there or take to the outdoor patio. Romantic and quiet, the candlelit venue is perfect for a drink à deux or a peaceful cocktail in solitude. Plus, this alternative to the heavily-decorated interior offers privacy from passers-by thanks to an encircling stone wall. If you choose not to indulge in the dining room's Californian and French fare, know that the bar serves burgers, sandwiches, and appetizers. |

Description:
HOLLYWOOD. Providing an antidote to LA's glut of overly swanky cocktail bars, The Bar is refreshingly low-key and, consequently, attracts a mixed clientele who come for rock tunes and strong mixed drinks. Most weeknights, DJs spin a mix, so grab a seat and enjoy the tunes. As the evening gets later, the crowd is increasingly well-dressed, so show up on the early side for a more casual vibe. A thoughtful perk for women: convenient purse hooks underneath the bar. Note: The bar is marked only with its address on an awning. |
