Snake Pit Alehouse Whiskey Bar & Kitchen

Upon my first trip to LA with my Bourbon conessieur husband, we found this sweet spot on Melrose. They had a very good selection of spirits and the bar keep, I believe his name was Logan, was very mindful and patient with us. We enjoyed the space very much and hope to come back and find long lost friends some day. My parents have the same Olympia beer antique behind their bar at my childhood home. ?????????????

This place was dope. Service was great and food was delicious. Highly recommend.

Cool local dive bar with good food but unfortunately has mid service, idk if it’s just me but the staff had an attitude both times I’ve been there. The calamari/ fries combo is my new go to, it’s super yummy!! I damn near stuffed my face, super delish. I also really loved their whiskey shot + beer deal it’s inexpensive and hits the spot every time. The service here was… weird but I’d come back.

Amazing divey feel, great liquor selection, craft and regular beers. Let's talk about staff, Alyssa. Amazing, observant, savvy and attentive. The whole show. I would come back just to hang with her (no offense to Brian). I will be back! (But may call ahead to make sure she's on) lol.

Locals only. Love the buffalo wings. Shrimp ceviche is shockingly fantastic. Great whiskey bar. Been going for years. Notice the ever changing outside wall paint.
