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 wound up the year with a rousing session of trivia at The Famous in Glendale this week. We made some new friends; had a few laughs; learned a few things. In other words, it was another terrific gathering of King Trivia fans and friends.

Thank you all for your continuing support for all things trivial. We'll be back next year (next week!) with fresh questions, fresh handouts, fresh music and even more fun, fun, fun!

Happy New Year, friends! See you all in 2018!!

"Gentle Sweaters" - isn't that a lovely name? It conjures up images of a soft, warm, loving embrace, right? RIGHT!?

Nope! Not OUR Gentle Sweaters. Oh no! Our Gentle Sweaters came in hard and cold and ruthless as they swept aside all competition to take first place this week at The Famous on Brand in Glendale.

Oh you Sweaters! We're soooo proud of you! Yes, The Drinking Androids put up a fight, and frequent top-three finisher Yer a Quizard Harry was right there with 'em, but it was the Sweaters' night to shine, and they wouldn't be stopped!

See y'all next week.
