FROM TIKI HAUNTS TO BREWERIES, COFFEE SHOPS AND WINE BARS, THESE ARE OUR FAVORITE PLACES TO GET A DRINK IN THE 818
YASARA GUNAWARDENA For The Times
THE VALLEY MIGHT be the best region for drinking in Los Angeles. And we don't just mean booze. Sprawling across dozens of neighborhoods, the San Fernando Valley is home to the state's first materia, a Middle Eastern cafe brewing sand coffee and a dedicated margarita bar from an award-winning beverage team, with plenty of neighborhood dives in between. A hub for film studios and its stars, the Valley has long attracted L.A.'s most ambitiously themed haunts, including tiki destinations and a barrel-shaped bar turned historic-cultural monument that recalls the city's postwar fascination with programmatic architecture. You can pair mariscos with nonalcoholic micheladas in Sylmar, tuck into an eclectic Jewishand Japanese-inspired bar in Studio City masquerading as a restaurant (or is it vice versa?), stock up on coffee beans from the Valley's only woman-owned roastery in Tarzana or sip wine in a lush setting where you can shop for plants at the same time. Here are 24 of our favorite places to drink in the Valley:
