Lara10月 23, 2014Enter through Cole's back door. Small space so come before 9 to get in without waiting. If you're looking for a light fresh drink, get the Elevensies. If something stronger, then try the Brown Derby.
Adrian Phillips10月 11, 2014In the back of Cole's, just open the door and put your name in for a table. Penicillin is my drink of choice. If you have to wait for a table just go to the Cole's bar and enjoy the excellent drinks.
Claudia Hernández3月 22, 2017First, get a sandwich (and a Moscow Mule, if it's gonna be that kind of night) at Cole's, then continue to the door in the back, and turn the knob. Come early -- seats are first come, first served.
C. P. Bisgaard6月 18, 2015The staff was great. You can choose to have the bartender make one for you ... which is always fun, and, in this case, it was delicious. Would be an amazing place to take a date.
Jennifer9月 3, 2014The best bar in Los Angeles. Go on a weekday, chat with the knowledgable staff, and enjoy a fantastic cocktail. I love anything with creme de violette - try something new!
Franco Caliz2月 11, 2015This might be the best bar in America. The drinks in the menu are fine. The bartenders choice is a better idea. I was introduced to new drinks that were great. Awesome ambiance too.- Daria Zlobina12月 23, 2014Loved this place! They've live music Sunday-Tuesday. Prices are reasonable, but the best thing is the ambiance and secret location: this speakeasy is in the back of Cole's bar.
Justin Ordoveza1月 3, 2015Love the craft cocktails here. It's a nice cozy space that's very dark. Be prepared to wait a while to get a table.
Los Angeles11月 5, 2013A speakeasy hidden inside Cole's, you're bound to find a drink right up your alley at The Varnish, where bartenders at this classic-driven cocktail bar will shake or stir your libation to your liking.
- Amber7月 8, 2017Classic craft cocktail aficionado Sasha Petraske launched one of Los Angeles' first sophisticated bars, now considered the godfather of L.A.'s craft cocktail movement.
Y9月 27, 2018Cozy speakeasy bar with friendly and knowledgeable mixologists. Nice added touch with live jazz performances.
naveen2月 23, 2011a very new york-like speakeasy feel in the back room here – you know, if you're feeling nostalgic for home. snag a table in one of the booths by the back wall and have them mix up your faves
Becherovka Voyager9月 4, 2013Enjoy live jazz as you're being transported back in time to prohibition days, with the classic drinks of LA's notorious mobsters or new additions to the menu, like the Bohemian favorite, Becherovka.
Tasting Table3月 24, 2016For a clandestine cocktail in a sultry secret hideaway, go to this speakeasy hidden inside Cole's. Enjoy live jazz and pretend you're back in prohibition days all night. 続きを見る
Tiago Lobao12月 13, 2014Imerge in the Speakeasy vibe, finding this hidden bar. You can always trust the bartenders choice on drinks for you. You're on a speakeasy, take the risk!
Matthew Gold2月 18, 2015Very loud, very crowded (small room in the back of Coles), but the cocktails are some of the best I've ever had. Bonus points if you come dressed in 1920s attire.
Angel1月 27, 2013Small, dark, and private. A few cast members from the show Homeland were sitting in the booth behind us! Took a while for the drinks to come, but everyone said they were very good and perfectly made.
Blanca Llarma3月 26, 2015this place is great they have the bets whiskey ever.. I enjoy coming here with friends and fellow co workers it is a great way to hang out
The Artificial11月 27, 2017My favorite speakeasy. Hidden in the back room of a well-known sandwich shop, the atmosphere and drinks are truly spectacular.
David Heiser11月 27, 2019Wasn’t blown away by the cocktails, and it was 1000 degrees inside the bar. Cool space to have a drink, though.
eric bornemann2月 17, 2019Wonderful cocktails in an intimate back room. Great “speakeasy” in downtown LA that feels very noir.
Open Air Publishing4月 16, 2012Our favorite rum based cocktail is the "Detroit Daisy" (rum, lime juice, grenadine with mint). Make it at home with the book "Speakeasy Cocktails" created for iPads.
@JaumePrimero11月 7, 2012The Varnish was named the best cocktail bar in the US at this year's Tales of the Cocktail (the Oscars equivalent of the mixology world). Just go!
Order the Old Fashioned, which is the best anywhere. Fun fact: Bartender Eric Alperin taught Ryan Gosling how to make one for film Crazy Stupid Love.
Jeremiah Chua6月 6, 2015Their whiskey drinks are made very well. I enjoyed their old-fashioned and Manhattan cocktails.
Bravo12月 2, 2010Cedd Moses owns a number of bars downtown. The best one, The Doheny, you can’t go to because it’s private. This one is among of the best of the rest. -Mark Peel, Top Chef- Buzz Andersen3月 28, 2012New York style cocktails in downtown LA, from the people behind Gotham's Milk & Honey. The drinks lean toward perfect executions of simple classics.
Edward K5月 12, 2015No cellphone reception here! Make sure to contact all the people you're meeting up with outside, before stepping into this speakeasy 1920's time machine.
Food & Wine4月 20, 2011A collaboration between cocktail heroes Sasha Petraske and Eric Alperin, the Varnish is accessible only through a secret door at the newly renovated Cole's, downtown L.A.'s century-old public house.
Esquire2月 1, 2011Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. The cocktails are flawless, and all of them are consumed right-side up. Order a Remember the Maine, with rye and Cherry Heering.
Open Air Publishing4月 24, 2012Try the "Detroit Daisy" (rum, lime juice, grenadine with mint). Make it at home with the book "Speakeasy Cocktails" created for iPads.
Anik Joshi2月 1, 2018The vibe is just breathtaking and when you open the door you feel like you're being taken back in time.
Stephen Smythe11月 7, 2015Sneak by the hordes in Coles to the unmarked door in the back for a drink wonderland. Just let the bartender close for you.
Jane Chu6月 8, 2012This always makes everyone's list, but the drinks really are that good here and you can ask the mixologist to make whatever they want too.
Gilt City1月 26, 2011A Master Cognac class on 2/5 finds Eric Alperin divulging his secrets: in addition to getting the sidecar and vieux carré down pat, you’ll mix up a cognac Manhattan and original Varnish masterpiece.
Luiz Centenaro8月 6, 2014Daniel makes the best old fashioned ever. You will feel like Don Draper here.
Justin Luk11月 11, 2011When you've got visitors and you really want to make them jealous of your city, knock on the door at the back of Cole's. They'll be amazed, and you'll look like a bad ass.- DAN COX8月 23, 2011No need for a menu. Just relax, leave your ordering in the hands of the staff (who will do a much better job than you ever could!) and allow them to make your evening perfection.
Christine Tran2月 15, 2011Seriously one of the best bars I've been to. Amazing cocktails made with the freshest ingredients. Try the Eastside martini made with cucumber and gin
- Enjoy. You're currently in the Best American Cocktail Bar via 2012 Spirited Awards from Tales of the Cocktail.
Elle Cameron10月 19, 2013This place is amazing! Bartenders choice is a great way to go!! All their drinks are delicious
- Allegra Tepper6月 16, 2014Grab a french dip at Cole's, then come here! If you like citrus+chocolate, ask for a Twentieth Century.
DowntownLA.com5月 9, 2011This cozy Downtown bar hosts live jazz piano each Monday night -- so cure your case of the Mondays with a retreat to a hidden urban oasis. 続きを見る- Karen S12月 4, 2010Varnish is small speakeasy style bar at the backside of Cole's restaurant. The silver metal stirring straw/spoon is definitely a signature of The Varnish. Checkout the Bartender's choice.
Mucho Comida™10月 28, 2012I think they're going with the 'hot bartenders on the weekend' concept. (they still make good cocktails though...so no complaints). Enjoy.
