Nestled on Melrose, Snake Pit is a cozy dive where cheap drinks, friendly bartenders, and a jukebox set the stage for a laid-back night of fun.
"A pop-up run by the people behind Severance Wine Bar in Weho, Drunk On Pie has a variety of savory and sweet holiday pies, including beef Wellington, lobster bisque pie, and traditional apple. They’ll also serve Christmas-y batch cocktails like house-made sherry eggnog, holiday Old Fashioned with nutmeg and walnut bitters, and a Christmas mule with cranberry-ginger syrup. Pre-order online, pick-up available at Severance or Brite Spot in Echo Park." - brett keating
"West Hollywood has a bar for almost any kind of night out. That said, it struggles mightily when it comes to low-key dives where you can always find a seat. Enter Snake Pit, the neighborhood bar on Melrose that’s remarkable mostly for being unremarkable. This is the kind of place where you show up halfway through the night for a quick drink, then end up staying for three hours because you made five new friends. The drinks are cheap, the bartenders will actually talk to you, and their jukebox is one of our favorites in the neighborhood." - brant cox
