Laurel Tavern - Universal City

Frequent here on a weekly basis and it's all due to the drinks, food, and ambience. What a vibe of a place. Food wise, uufff the grilled cheese, wings, and turkey club are mint mint choices. A drink and a half would be the margarita with tequila ocho. Masterpiece. The crowd is always legit. Get out to this place, you'll love it!

I had only shared a drink with a friend here, as we arrived and found all the tables inside reserved for other parties. On a Tuesday evening too! I was disappointed there was no table service and a line to order food/drinks at the bar. Maybe it was extra busy because it’s holiday season, so I’m willing to give it another try. But the parking is miserable and there are easier places to grab a drink and good food.

Great outdoor patio (was their parking lot pre-pandemic) that was beautifully decorated for the holidays. A great place for our 50 person event and we didn’t even take up half the space. Best of all was Corey, who handled everything. He was kind, courteous, thoughtful and gave terrific service all the way around.

Great patio atmosphere. You need to order your own food at the bar and it gets delivered to you. They have a great variety of drinks.

Cool place. Pretty cozy, had a nice outdoor area as well. The drinks are good, the food is great. I also forgot my credit card there and they kept it for me. Good people, chill vibes. There is valet and street parking. As with most parking in LA, it can get a little wild.
