"Located between a Bottega Louie that nobody asked for and the botox swapmeet that is Pump, Mother Lode is a Weho classic, and the oldest surviving gay bar in the neighborhood. The crowd generally skews older and is far more laid-back and unaffected than its better-known neighbors. That said, this place can get wild any night of the week. Known for their mixed drinks that are just cups full of well tequila, Mother Lode is easily your fastest drunk in town. They also have billiards if you’re still able to hold a pool stick correctly." - brant cox
