Convivial gay sports bar with TVs, trivia, patio & bar food
"Most people head to Weho’s Santa Monica Blvd. with the full intention of bar-hopping all day, but if you’re looking for a steady jumping-off point, go to Hi Tops. The high-school-themed space is big and open, with a sunny front patio ideal for standing around and waiting for that cute person to make the first move. The craft cocktails are also quite good, so instead of your usual $17 vodka soda, go for the mezcal-heavy Magic Hour, or The Claw, which is made with gin and cardamom bitters." - brant cox
"This Weho sports bar never met a pun it didn’t love (the sign outside reads “Cold pitchers, hot catchers,”) but there’s much more happening here. The crowd is lively, the drink specials are generous, and with plenty of TVs and a full kitchen, it’s the kind of place anyone can watch a game." - kat hong, james montgomery
"You probably know Rockwell more for their burlesque shows than their food, but that shouldn’t stop you from going by for Happy Hour or brunch on the patio. They’ve got two levels of outdoor seating for you and your quarantine buddies to grab a table, order some cocktails, and split a BBQ chicken flatbread." - brett keating
"We respect any bar that pulls off a punny name, and Hi Tops has that going for it. This popular SF transplant is still pretty new by West Hollywood standards, and for that reason alone, it’s crowded. The high-school-themed space is big and open, which is ideal for people to stand around and look at each other until somebody makes the first move. Tuesday night trivia is very popular, and some people are here to watch sports unironically. That said, the most surprising aspect of this place is its excellent craft cocktails. Go for the mezcal-heavy Magic Hour, or The Claw, made with gin and cardamom bitters." - brant cox
