  I love this place. About a 5 minute walk from my front door, and the most comfortable vibe I've found in the neighborhood. Don't expect to hear the Black Eyed Peas or Lady Gaga here-- I heard a little Radiohead, a little Aphex Twin and lots of other stuff that was a welcome change from lots of places in the area. Cozy, dark atmosphere; friendly, chic bartenders (at least when I was there)... It did have a bit of a European vibe, and lots of interesting artist types. I had been going to Whiskey Tango for my night cap, but this is my new first choice.

  You want three things from the perfect bar. 1.) You must be able to smoke inside. 2.) Your fellow drinkers should be fun, interesting, approachable, and represent all neighborhoods and backgrounds. 3.) They've gotta have a lot of beer — like, over 100 varieties. In Hollywood, there's only one place that does all this right: PRL Euro Café. No matter what time you show up during business hours, from 5 p.m. to 2 a.m., you'll be pleased. During happy hour, from 5 to 7, you get two-for-one drinks. We're not talking just domestic Rocky Mountain swill, either. Think Old Speckled Hen, Belzebuth, and other tasty treats from far-off lands. Pop by in the evening and the long, narrow space is shoulder-to-shoulder with other Euro-brew aficionados. It's an easy environment for mingling since you all share a love of good beer and a loathing for shitty domestic draft. On the weekend, walk into (and stumble out of) underground art shows and drum 'n' bass DJ sets — all with a lit cigarette in hand. PRL might be heaven on Earth. It's definitely the perfect bar.
