"Hollywood is a neighborhood where bars seem to survive only if they have a heavy-handed theme or awkward celebrity promotion on Instagram. The Woods is an outlier. On the ground floor of a fantastically shady strip mall on La Brea, this tiny spot is everything you want in a neighborhood dive bar - zero lines, affordable drinks, and a laid-back crowd that showed up with nothing to prove. Come at the right time (after midnight) and the small open space in the back becomes the dance floor of your dreams." - Brant Cox
