"Even after a closure, ownership change, and minor facelift, the storied Silverlake Lounge remains a social hub for the neighborhood, one that’s a giant stew of every Silver Lake archetype. You’ll see influencers hogging the photo booth, club kids in tabis, goths, screenwriters who smell like vintage leather, and 22-year-old bassists chainsmoking in the back patio. Whatever your type is, chances are at least one person at this iconic music venue and bar matches your aura. And remember: this is a dive, so come to dance a little, drink beer or a basic cocktail, and flirt with strangers." - brant cox, nikko duren, sylvio martins
