LOS ANGELES HISTORIC BARS & RESTAURANTS - YET TO EXPLORE

 

Places I have yet to explore.  This is completely raw information. I have not been to these places (or it has been so long I don't remember anything about them). My research indicates they are established 1970 or earlier.  Some of these places are probably already gone. I may have placed them in the wrong city. So they are unknown to me and I can give you no recommendation good or bad as of yet.  You are responsible to find out if they are open, what they are like and if the area and specific place is safe (especially the bars). I'm posting this solely in the desire to get the information out as fast as possible and in hopes people will write me and let me know what places still exist, which are gone, and which are worth checking out (PLEASE!!!). Some places I took pictures but the place was closed and I couldn't wait.  My soldiers - you have your marching orders!
