Speakeasy

2930 Bristol Street, Costa Mesa

Deliberately run-down

This is a super tiny, super well-done spooky establishment.

The drinks are really nice, and I always deeply appreciate a genuinely small speakeasy.

It's not easy to find, but if you hunt around the LAB Anti-Mall on the west side for A111, you'll find it. It's dark, and looks like a small garden.

There's a small, neon yellow sign that says 'this is a bar' in cursive above the entrance. I didn't see it at first.

On the inside, there are maybe 5 or seats total. Everything is dressed up like you live in the world of the Adams Family.

In the Halloween season, I can't imagine a better spot to bring a small group of friends, but I'm sure it's packed around that time, so prepare accordingly.

Highly recommend, go check it out. :)
