"A tiny watering hole in Culver City, Old Man Bar specialized in one thing: Whiskey. Bourbon, specifically - they’ve got a fantastic list of hard-to-find (and occasionally very expensive) bottles, and some of the best Boulevardiers and Old Fashioneds in town. But rather than being stuffy, this is a a cool, dark space, filled with taxidermied animal heads, a fireplace, and a fun crowd that makes you think this could just as easily be a VFW in Maine. It’s attached to Hatchet Hall, one of the best restaurants in the area, so we recommend some getting some dinner beforehand, too." - brant cox, brett keating
