This former mansion has been turned into a bar ! you can have a quiet drink in the backyard, play pool or enjoy the music in the patio/green house. I recommend to go there early (8-8;30) otherwise, the line can be pretty long

Sightseeing

It is the best view of LA . I would recommend to arrive before the sunset to see the city before and after dark with all the lights. you can also see the Hollywood sign during the day. you will have to park on the side of the road like everybody and walk a bit. Otherwise, take the shuttle at the greek theater The observatory is free, so you can wander around. they let you watch the sky through telescope..... I love it.
