Downtown LA’s Here And Now serves seriously impressive cocktails, and they’re just as good when you get them to-go. At the top of the list, for us, is the 2:1 Martini. This gin martini goes a bit heavy on the vermouth - which may be an acquired taste - but theirs is made in-house, and we find that it balances out the gin very nicely. Order online.

Downtown LA’s cocktail spot Here & Now recently opened a back patio with covered seating and live music on weekends. They also have been serving to-go cocktails since March, so whether you’re in person or ordering to-go, you’ll get some bar snacks and a whole bunch of great drinks.

Not just a neighborhood bar in the Arts District, Here and Now also does brunch on the weekend. Complete with live music and dishes like vegan Benedict, and pancakes made with ricotta and blueberry, this is a great choice for when you’re Downtown and want something... immediately.

Deal: $20 bottomless mandarin mimosas, made with prosecco, oranges, and thyme. Weekends, 11am-4pm.
