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.

Well now, THAT was exciting!

We gathered, as is our custom, to engage in our weekly competition of trivia expertise once again at The Famous on Brand in Glendale. Ans while we've come to accept the fact that the quizzers who populate this event are a truly competitive, adept and knowledgeable crew, last night's session was one for the books!

Why is that, you might ask? Because when the dust settled, we had a three-way tie at the top of the scoreboard! That's right, Fartin' Sheen, Still No Woodford and You're a Quizzard, Harry all finished regulation play with identical scores of 67 points!

And while a near-impossible tie-breaking question produced the final result indicated in our scoreboard, all three teams are champions in this humble quizmaster's book! Congratulations, teams! See ya next week.
