The Roger Room

"The Roger Room is hidden off to the side of the Largo in Weho, but it's not really a secret. This retro-themed cocktail spot gets packed after 9pm, and it's rowdy in the best way possible. Comedians and their entourage squeeze into red leather booths as vested bartenders make elaborate drinks with stenciled designs and stylish garnishes. There's an entire absinthe menu if you care to partake, but we can't help but find that gimmicky (no one here is hallucinating green fairies). The Flim Flam is our drink of choice, with dry gin, a bitter punch from Cynar, and a sweet Luxardo cherry." - brant cox, sylvio martins

"Across the street from Fumi is Roger Room. It’s a speakeasy-style (but not annoying) spot inside the Largo, where you’ll find a date-night-appropriate (but not boring) atmosphere and some of the best cocktails in West Hollywood. This is one of our favorite bars in LA." - jess basser sanders, amy clark, brant cox

"If you’ve ever seen a show at The Largo on La Cienega, you’ve probably wandered around and found a somewhat hidden bar off to the side and immediately decided you loved it. That’s Roger Room and the good news is you don’t have to have a ticket to the Largo to drink there. The space is small and dark, and on weeknights, it's filled with a crowd of mostly comedians who just want to be left alone like you. On weeknights, things start getting rowdy at around 9pm. Whether that has to do with the fact that there’s an entire absinthe section on the menu, we will never know. " - brant cox

"Perhaps because it’s hidden under a tiny neon sign next to The Largo theater on La Cienega, The Roger Room tends to get lost in the mix. The place isn’t big, but the big crowd inside is mostly comprised of people who know how to drink and comedians waiting to go on at The Largo (read: also people who know how to drink). Get the Spiced Mule or the absinthe-infused Green Fairy, sit and talk to bartenders who actually know how to engage in conversation, and realize you’ll probably never drink anywhere else again." - brant cox, brett keating

"When on La Cienega Boulevard in West Hollywood and desiring a drink without the fussiness of dress codes and velvet ropes — come here. A dark circus-themed bar with craft cocktails that go down way too easily, the Roger Room is the ideal venue for hanging out with the crew or drinking solo." - Caroline Pardilla
