Tips from locals
Local bar and local institution. Has been here for decades. Pretty much all local Altadenans of every stripe. Also comfortable for gay patrons. Bar and basic food service. Hang with the locals.
Funky local dive bar with great patio overlooking the LA basin. They sometimes host small concerts (or they just happen impromptu if the right folks are around ...).
Very mellow dive bar. Definitely only locals. Outside patio for safe covid drinking.
Very old school and sometimes a bit ruthless and toothless. Great for a stiff drink and people watching. Some weekend mornings there is an amazing fella that makes a homemade bloody mary like no other.
