Intimate haunt attached to classic deli, hosts rock bands
"Kibitz Room is not where you start the night. It’s where you end it after getting dropped off in front of Canter’s Deli at 1:15am and realize you might have one more drink left in you. Attached to the all-night Fairfax deli, this classic, grungy dive promises cheap beer, bartenders who don’t care about you, and some weird dude plucking an electric guitar in the corner who probably headlined Whiskey A-Go-Go earlier that night. The short ten-yard walk to a pastrami sandwich afterward is the cherry on top. " - brant cox, sylvio martins
"The Kibitz Room is not a restaurant, but excluding it from this neighborhood guide would be like not inviting your oldest friend to your wedding (oof). This tiny cocktail lounge attached to Canter’s on Fairfax is not where you start your night—it’s where you go after a great night, one that you don’t want to be over yet. Drinks are cheap, the crowd is always interesting, and there will probably be a middle-aged garage band playing in the corner. And in case you missed what we said: It’s attached to Canter’s, a perfectly mediocre (equally iconic) Jewish deli that’s open 24 hours. " - brant cox, sylvio martins
"Historically, the cocktail lounge attached to Los Angeles landmark Canter’s Deli on Fairfax is where one ends the night. That’s the way it’s been here since it opened in 1961. And everyone who’s anyone has performed on its tiny stage including Joni Mitchell, Guns N’ Roses, and Lenny Kravitz. Grab a beer and Reuben, chat up some locals, and stick around for an impromptu jam session." - Eater Staff, Rebecca Roland
"Behind that mysterious door on the far side of Canter’s is the Kibitz Room - a fun, dark bar with strong, very inexpensive drinks, particularly at Happy Hour. The Deal: $1 off beer, $2 off liquor, food specials. When: Daily 4-7pm." - brett keating
