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.

We had a packed house of both old friends and enthusiastic newcomers this week at The Famous on Brand in Glendale. Last week's winners, The Blanches, came out of the gate hot with successful doubles in the first two rounds, but finished up in third in the face of stiff competition.

That competition came from frequent top-three finishers Because Jeopardy Won't Let Us Drink (70) in 2nd and Bad News Barristers, who brought in reinforcements to finish at the top of the heap with a robust 80 points!

8 is Enough won the drinking round with their excellent knowledge of music, which seemed appropriate since they came in to celebrate the birthday of team member Lizzie, who turned 21 (or some number greater than 21) this week, and has the hangover this morning to prove it!

LOTS of new faces at The Famous this week, and we are delighted to make your acquaintance. Let's do it again next week!
