About The Famous Bar

The Famous craft cocktail lounge is located in Glendale's historic Huntley-Evans building, directly across the street from the Americana at Brand. It follows an eclectic and rich pedigree of establishments that have called this building home in the last century, most notably the early Glendale landmark, The Famous Department Store. The Famous, true to its heritage, embraces the classic art of fine craft cocktail creation, invented in the United States in 1856, using bitters, juices, syrups, and infusions, prepared in-house using fresh ingredients from local markets and growers. Cocktails served at The Famous are identical to those served nearly 100 years ago when the building was constructed.

QUIZ RECAP

Imagine a trivia night wherein your team is augmented by dozens of happy, informal "contributors." That was pretty much the situation this week at The Famous in Glendale.

The bar has a sister location, underground and just a few steps away on Brand Blvd. called The Moose Den. (note: it is every bit as cool as The Famous - check out their awesome comedy shows on selected Sunday nights.)

Well, the Moose was hosting a private event this week, so their usual patrons came upstairs and filled The Famous to near capacity just as Thursday Night Trivia was getting underway.

These newcomers, unfamiliar with our game though they may have been, quickly became enthusiastic "contributors" to many of our teams. They were undaunted by the fact that many of their suggested answers were incorrect, and their presence did nothing to deter Because Jeopardy Won't Let Us Drink from once again finishing in the top spot.

The Barellers and Yer a Quizard Harry rounded out our top three, but everyone was a winner this week, as the trivia quiz was imbued with a definite party vibe.

See ya next week!
