Standing directly across the street from the grand Hollywood & Highland complex, this grungy, neighborhood dive bar is the antithesis of the new vision city planners have for the legendary Hollywood Boulevard strip. The dingy, hole-in-the-wall is more trashy than trendy, but its patrons don't come here for the ambience. It's all about the pitchers of PBR and the "Roadhouse" behavior that draws the wayward barfly here. The wise-cracking bartender, stiff cocktails, classic rock-filled jukebox, darts and pinball games will keep you busy, while the rowdy barroom banter will keep you alert.
