A Sports Bar That Eschews Cliches With a Signature Coffee Cocktail, on-point Wine List, and a Blt With Garlic Aioli and Avocado, Brack Shop Tavern Is Your Downtown Haunt

Your everyday neighborhood eatery but better, Brack Shop Tavern is reinventing the classic sports bar in Downtown Los Angeles. Each drink on the cocktail menu is a twist on a classic, like the Tequila Sunrise with spicy passion fruit and hibiscus.

Or, try a beer on nitro, which uses nitrous gas to pump the beer instead of the typical CO2, giving the brew a round, rich mouthfeel, says Adam Weisblatt, CEO of the team behind Brack Shop Tavern, Last Word Hospitality.

To give the bar its cozy vibe, designer Ricki Kline transformed the space with darkened brick walls, warm lighting, and giant booths for groups up to 10, so the whole gang can meet to watch the game or split appetizers ranging from fried chicken sliders to queso.

With the straightforward goal of building a true neighborhood spot with an elevated food and drink menu, Adam Weisblatt says Brack Shop Tavern is just what 7th Street needs to bring people together—and they plan to stick around for many years to come.
