The Bar

Welcome drinks afforded from our stay at the Fairmont last June 2024. We wished that we had tried it sooner so that we could've come back as paying customers. The custom drinks were unique but still connected to the location and hotel identity. We were also serve complimentary nibbles that matched our drinks. The plating and presentation was elegantly displayed. Bar service were manned by two accommodating and friendly ladies who were very helpful to our questions. The bar is connected to an adjacent al fresco area and the interior lounge section of the hotel, providing ample private or social spaces. A nice touch was the live dj during the afternoon which had a great playlist matching the bright and beautiful interiors of the opulent area.

This is a really neat bar area located within the Fairmont Century Plaza. The room is very large, open, and beautiful. There was a crowd every night of our stay, and most nights had live music. This is a great, classy spot for a date night or a drink after work.

Nice and relaxing atmosphere to listen to the beautiful piano while enjoying carefully prepared cocktail.

Toby and Sonia are the absolute best ever!!!! This bar is elite and so much fun HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Gooooo here :)

Chicest bar in LA! The modern setting with timeless elegance is the perfect spot to grab a cocktail. Plus if it's holiday - go to the Swiss Chalets, they are absolutely incredible. Can't wait to go back.

One of the best hotel bars I have ever been to: buffalo wings were awesome, staff is very efficent and professional, atmoshere is great and location specific

Outstanding night! Yeah to Eddie, Sonya and Anjelica!!

The Bar Benfiddich pop-up was an incredible experience, blending tradition and innovation in a way that only Tokyo's cocktail scene can. Suntory's spirit lineup--Toki Whisky, Maker's Bourbon, Hakushu Single Malt, El Tesoro Tequila, and Amaras Mezcal--created the perfect foundation for an unforgettable evening. Having Hiroyasu Kayama, the owner of Bar Benfiddich in Tokyo, as the lead bartender and guest of honor made it even more special. His approach to mixology is unlike anything else--part farmer, part ingredient curator, with a deep philosophical connection to his craft. Watching him and his team work with such precision and passion was mesmerizing. You could feel the excitement in the room, with fans eagerly savoring each creation. It was one of those rare nights where every detail came together perfectly--a true celebration of Japanese mixology at its finest

Here for an event at the outdoor patio of the bar. Bar patio is nice, with heat lamps and fire top tables. The bar inside is also beautiful. Because it is pride month & a pride choral event, there is a lot of neat pride decor. Service is great & a great place to get drinks.

The Bar at Century Plaza is one of those timeless gems! The space is beautiful and comfortable. The staff is super friendly and helpful. A classic spot for cocktails and nibbles.

I recently went to The Bar at Century Plaza with friends after hearing about their Swiss Chalet Dining Experience. The "experience" was horrid. Despite the decor looking like a Hobby Lobby shopping window, the overall experience left much to be desired. After waiting for over an hour, the food finally arrived, but was undercooked and room temperature. After requesting a replacement, the second dish was sub-par at best. For a $100+ prix fixe menu, the quality was embarrassing. This was not just a waste of money but also a waste of time. Though in great company, I truly wish I could take back those 2.5 hours and $160+ (including valet) and have spent that elsewhere. My holiday dinner will be memorable for all the wrong reasons.
