We came in around 10 for a few quiet ones and were greeted by the most dismissive, obnoxious and rude bartender ever. Every single round of 5 drinks was greeted by a grunt, if we were lucky, or silence. At the end of the night we paid our bill and there was an automatic 20% tip. Horrible. Do not go here.

The well what more can be said? open 4pm till 2am 7 days a week. The drinks are strong and there is a very welcoming vibe. It can be dead one minute and hopin the next...you never know. They also serve pretty good food. Busiest times are on palladium show days...just go.

It's usually on the slower side when my friends & I go, but that's what I love about it! Perfect place to grab a pint & have a conversation ????

Intimit and dark Hollywood bar with a long history in LA loure. Visited during happy hour and had a great experience with both food and drink. We had the loaded potatoes, spicy wings, chicken tacos, and fries. All were top notch, though the wings were not as spicy as billed. Decor was updated during COVID, so modern touches and comforts await patrons. The sound system is full and surrounding, spread out so there isn't a need to have loud and quiet spots that would interfere with your typical conversation level.

The Well, is a cool spot to have a drink and if you're need of a quick bit. It's across the street from the Hollywood palladium. So if you need to get your drink on and fill your tummy, I would recommend the Well!

This place is awesome! I was looking for a place to host my birthday at after Covid ruined having one last year. After getting jerked around at other potential venues I remembered that a lady friend who is very hard to impress had mentioned this is her favorite bar in LA so I went in to ask if it was a possibility. Flash forward, Vincent the owner turned out to be the coolest most welcoming guy and set me up with the best birthday party I’ve ever had: He set us up in their private area in the back that spills out into the main bar so you get the best of both worlds and he had the bartender make some special drinks to serve just for my party, themed after my personality and printed on a picture of me from social media. My friends loved it and we had the best time!
The bar is really classy and inviting, the ladies in our group particularly liked the vibe and I’m pretty sure two of my friends who met there that night fell in love and I think the classy atmosphere where the friendly bartenders are super welcoming and treat you like a king only facilitated the magic. The food is great and well priced, the drinks are great, and it’s very obvious to me that Vincent takes pride in every aspect of this place because every little detail is immaculate and the staff is well chosen, friendly, and attentive unlike many LA bars.
Like my friend who suggested this place, I now agree that, yes, this is my favorite bar in LA. It would be a good spot to take a date or an an old friend from out of town, or to finish up the night after a crazier place because you can actually have a conversation here and enjoy yourself rather than scream.
It’s more classy and low key than the other bars in the area while still being fun and the clientele reflects that vibe. The fist thing you notice is everyone is smiling and happy. You can’t go wrong.

SUNDAY HAPPY HOUR 50% off wine bottles that are $70 and up! don't gotta tell me twice!
this place was SUPER spacious inside and really nice. was not expecting it at all but was PLEASANTLY surprised. after having a late lunch at M.Y. China we made our way over to Press club for drinks.
The Well is not cheap, but it is worth the ambiance and service. Service was on point, and beer choices were decent as well. two bottles of wine and several glasses of beer later i was a happy camper. Would DEFINITELY come back next time I stay in Union Square :)

Low-key, good food, good drinks, good service, nice people. I’ve gone here here for happy hour twice. It’s definitely “the well,” very dim-lit low key, combo vibes between homey and posh, with a mix of sports-bar-like people and professionals and regular Hollywood peeps. The bar food actually yum yum, bartenders very nice, and drinks are also yum yum!!! Worth a check out. Again, when I’ve gone during happy hour it hasn’t been absolutely poppin’ but that’s what I was looking for.
