DTLA, Los Angeles · bar
The Escondite feels like DTLA’s best-kept secret: a moody, antler-lit dive saloon slinging craft beers, sneaky cocktails, and a burger menu where maple-bacon doughnut buns aren’t even the weirdest option. A hidden patio overlooks Skid Row, live R&B leads into rugged local rock, and a pinball machine stands guard for post-patio game breaks. Open ‘til 2 am nightly, with no cover and live bands at 10pm, it’s worth braving the area to enjoy a rare-to-find beer and a basket of spuds.
Happy hour runs Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun, 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM.
