Oldest Dive in LA - Frolic Room, Los Angeles, CA
There isn't a lot of original in Hollywood. Sure they celebrate the throwback, with films like L.A. Confidential and others, which actually show a directors version of what actually happened there years before, but real, authentic Hollywood? Nah. It really doesn't exist anymore.
Well, that's what we thought anyway rolling into town. Turns out though, that on Hollywood Boulivard there's more real about five blocks East of Highland that all of the stuff they try to force down your throat at the Kodak Theatre.
I'm talking about the Frolic Room, a throwback to at least 1930 when the connected Theater, the Panteges, was built. The bar, officially made a bar in 1934 (as far as we know) started life as a hospitality lounge for the theater next door, and therefore seen its share of Hollywood stars, sleeze, crime and tragedy. Enough to make it a Hollywood Landmark like its next-door neighbor..but because it's a bar and not a location for casting-couch calls that hasn't happened yet.
Its also the last bar on all of Hollywood Boulevard; the rest have been turned into dance clubs and Gaps.
So if you're in the area and you want a beer, a shot and some authentic Hollywood throwback, go by the Frolic Room.

LA Chapter - A Los Angeles Bar with New York Flair
In this episode of Across the Bar, we head to LA Chapter in Los Angeles's Ace Hotel to catch up with mixologist Dan Sabo. The hotel is a standout in the Downtown L.A. area for a few reasons, but ultimately, the space lends a New York sensibility, giving the neighborhood a different point of view. And it certainly shows in the cocktails. Watch the full episode, as Dan mixes some of his favorite drinks for us, including a Silver Line Fizz, a Tijuana Bible, and the Ace’s take on an Old-Fashioned, dubbed The Ghostlight.
