Moon Boots

Before

Long walk · 0.5 mi · 10 min walk; 2 min ride - Hollywood

Open on the same stretch of the Boulevard since 1919, with red-jacketed waiters and bartenders who mix the martini in a small shaker and leave the rest of it beside you in a carafe on ice. The counter and the bar take walk-ins. Sand dabs and the chopped salad are what people who eat here order.

After

0.1 mi · 1 min walk - Hollywood

A narrow black bar on Cahuenga that opens at 8pm and shuts at 2am, seven days. Loud rock, no food, no daylight. The speakeasy origin story attached to it is lore rather than anything documented. Cards carry a surcharge.
