Cocktails in Historic Places™

Friday, October 16 
Cole’s
118 E 6th Street (cross street Main)
Downtown Los Angeles, CA
 
 Los Angeles' history echoes at Cole's, originator of the French Dip, housed since 1908 in the hollow of the Pacific Electric building, once the nucleus of the Pacific Electric railway network. At its peak, 100,000 Angelenos passed through the downtown hub daily, many of them stopping to sample the restaurant's famed French Dips and cold pints.
 
Cole's, Los Angeles' oldest public house, evokes the spirit of saloons that dotted the west in the early 1900's. Original glass lighting, Penny tile floors, historic photos, and the welcoming 40-foot mahogany bar were preserved in the recent $1,600,000 year long restoration of the cherished LA landmark.
 
Come straight from work or slip into something more Deco - - either way, plan to join us for no-host cocktails on October 16th for an evening with like-minded people. Cocktails in Historic Places™ is open to members and non-members alike and reservations are not required.
If you decide to stay for dinner, you will enjoy the savory aroma of sliced-by-hand to-order French Dips au Jus or perhaps indulge in a fresh slice of house made seasonal pie.

 
Parking:  There is metered street parking in the area, pay lots on Spring near 5th and others within walking distance of the restaurant.  Click here for directions and public transportation routes.
