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.

Oh what a fun, thrilling finish we had to our weekly quiz at The Famous on Brand in Glendale! Two terrific teams - Good Luck, Everybody! and The Bad News Barristers - went neck-and-neck through the first five rounds, and were tied at 51 points going into Round Six!

But in the pressure packed sixth round, the momentum seemed to shift to the Barristers, when they executed the successful double while the Good Luck Gang also answered all questions correctly, but timidly opted not to double. The score stood at 71 Barristers / 61 Luckers as we entered the crucial seventh and final round.

And that where the worm turned, and Good Luck received some. Can you guess what happened next? Of course you can! The Lucky charms doubled successfully, for a final score of 81, while the Barristers registered a 9, to finish at 80, just one point behind!

Phew! That was exciting! See ya next week, friends.
