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.

Baby, it may be cold outside, but things were hot, hot, HOT inside The Famous on Brand in Glendale this week, where a lucky collection of 13 teams engaged in a rousing and raucous session of King Trivia.

Oh yes! The Divas were dancing, the Blanches were blanching and the Jeopardy crew were drinking - as is their wont - on their way to another first place finish.

"We rule! We rule the world!" declared Jeopardy member Doug upon hearing their winning final score. But not so fast, Doug! If you really wanna rule the trivia world, you must compete and succeed at the Tournament of Champions, where the best of the best gather to put their intellectual acumen to the ultimate test.

The ten-thousand dollar (that's right! I said $10,000!!) TOC will be held on January 25th, and tickets are on sale now. Doug will be there, certainly. You can be, too! Spectators are welcome. Especially if you heckle Doug and his teammates Matty, Mike, Rory and Stephanie.

Trust me on this: they'd heckle you, if they could. Oh yeah. They're hecklers of the most heckling sort. So have at it! Give 'em heck! See ya next week.
