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

A big night full of strong team performances this week at The Famous on Brand in Glendale. A robust contingent of registered King Trivia regulars posted scores in the 60's and 70's, with an especially impressive 106-point performance by the formidable trio Because Jeopardy Won't Let Us Drink to win the game.

By the way, guys. We contacted the Jeopardy folks about your team name, and they told us you didn't get ejected for drinking. Nooooo! You got kicked out for making fun of Alex Trebeck's moustache and asking silly questions like, "Where's Vanna?!"

Speaking of formidable trios, kudos to The Blanches, who finished in second with a 76-point performance that could have been even bigger if they hadn't gotten stung on the third and fourth rounds. Well done, ladies.

And speaking of getting stung on the double, Stung on the Double rounded out our top three winner's circle with a good score of 74.

Come for the ambiance, stay for the trivia, we'll be back with more quiz fun next week. See ya then!
