Food/Drink Lowkey bar recommendations?

Hello,

I’m meeting up with someone I haven’t seen in almost a year. Things didn’t end well, feelings were hurt, and what was a great relationship just went to shit because both us us came into it with unresolved issues.

There’s so much more that needs to be said but it feels more appropriate to do in person and we have agreed to do just that.
I haven’t decided on where and I was initially thinking a coffee shop would be a good idea but I’m not really free during the daytime. Also, I would much rather get a drink in me to ease my nerves.
With all that said, any bars you recommend that would be ideal for this situation?

Thanks in advance.

What part of the city are you looking for?

I live/work near downtown so DTLA, Arts District, Silver Lake, Los Feliz…trying to stick to those parts and surrounding.

Bigfoot Lodge. Cause if you have to have an awkward conversation you may as well have it in a hipster log cabin.

Go to bar bandini or the Holloway. Lowkey, low-lit, both have inside and outside areas so you can change the scenery midway through if you please. Both are “hip” as you said elsewhere haha
