Oldfield's Liquor Room - Los Angeles

Great place, great vibes, great drinks, and affordable. Close enough to downtown Culver that it makes for a good night cap after a delicious dinner. One of the best bars around!

Maybe because I have too many first dates here, but I don't love Oldfields. It's a neighborhood spot, but somehow every time I've been, the vibe doesn't add up. Cocktails are just good, not much invention. It has never been alive when I come (although you can imagine that first dates are on weekdays). I HATE THE BOOTH, it is unhappy low, and as a short woman I feel like a child sitting next to an adult man in a chair. Okay, start. Not with me, I'm sorry, Oldfield.

Looks like a shack outside, looks nice inside. The drinks are absolutely deplorable. We ordered two vodka tonics and they were by far the worst I have ever had in my adult life.

An intimate mainstay for a nice drink with friends or a Hinge date. It's a proper cocktail bar with a few beers on tap, decent bottle selection and a smattering of wine options. The decor is a throwback, classy and takes you away from the hustle and bustle of LA. During the week there are some jazz bands and a DJ on Sundays I think.

I visited for the first time on 23 Jan. My (the) server Robin was as lovely as a robin. The cocktail that I ordered was exceptional in presentation as well as concoction. Had I not been driving I could have imbibed several. This place has it down with a safe and comfortable vibe. All that and a bag of chips!
