Sometimes you don’t really want to head out to a nightclub or a lounge, and want to keep things on a more simple and moderate scale. That’s why we’ve all been blessed with bars and pubs. Not only are these great places for us to grab a bite and a pint, but they’re also the perfect venues for good pre-partying. Now there’s a new joint in town and by the looks of it, could turn into a city favorite.
Located on Hollywood Blvd., Essex Public House is finally having their soft-opening tonight, so expect there to be a packed house. The style of this place is more east coast, resembling a watering hole you’d frequent on the Lower East Side, but it is located in the heart of Hollywood. The beer list comes in at 60, with some impressive names on it, and the comfort food features everything from Figs in a Blanket to Banana-Bacon Fritters.
