The Edmon

Step inside The Edmon and you’re immediately transported to another era. Nestled in the lobby of the Hollywood Historic Hotel, this stunning art deco space channels serious Great Gatsby vibes with its dramatic architecture and sophisticated atmosphere. It’s the kind of place where you half expect to see flappers dancing in the corner, but instead you’ll find a beautiful bar serving up expertly crafted cocktails to a stylish Hollywood crowd.

The food here plays a supporting role to the impressive drink menu, but that doesn’t mean you should skip eating entirely. The burger is the standout dish—a solid, satisfying option that pairs perfectly with whatever cocktail catches your eye. The rose gimlet is particularly worth ordering, a refreshing choice that complements the elegant surroundings. While the kitchen won’t necessarily redefine your culinary expectations, it delivers exactly what you need to make an evening of drinking more enjoyable.

The Edmon fills a gap that Hollywood desperately needed—a genuinely beautiful bar in an area that can feel overrun with tourist traps and chain establishments. Whether you’re looking to impress a date, catch up with parents visiting from out of town, or simply enjoy a civilized evening out, this spot delivers on atmosphere in spades. The space itself feels like the main attraction, with the drinks and food serving as worthy companions.

For those seeking a refined drinking experience in Hollywood without the pretension, The Edmon hits the mark. It’s the kind of place where ordering a cocktail and a burger feels like the perfect evening, no additional plans required.
