Golden Age Cinema & Classic Bars in Los Angeles
Los Angeles invented the movie palace, the Hollywood cocktail, and the mythology of a city that runs on celluloid and ice — and if you know where to look, you can still find all three intact. This guide pairs the great surviving golden age cinemas with the bars and lounges that existed alongside them, from Tarantino's Vista Theatre in Los Feliz and the Netflix-restored Egyptian to the speakeasy jazz bar in a downtown alley and the 1919 booth where Bogart used to drink.
10 places: TCL Chinese Theatre — The Original Movie Palace, The Egyptian Theatre — Netflix's Restored 1922 Gem, El Capitan Theatre — Disney's Hollywood Showplace, Vista Theatre — Tarantino's Los Feliz Cinema, El Rey Theatre — The Wilshire Art Deco Jewel, Musso & Frank Grill — Hollywood's Oldest Bar, The Dresden Room — Live Jazz in Los Feliz Since 1954, The Varnish — Downtown Speakeasy Jazz Bar

The Ultimate Tiki Bar Crawl Through Los Angeles
Los Angeles didn't just borrow tiki culture — it invented it. Don the Beachcomber opened in Hollywood in 1934 and lit a fuse that turned mid-century California into ground zero for rum-soaked escapism, carved idols, and flaming punch bowls. From the oldest surviving tiki bar in America to secret reservation-only lairs hidden inside bowling alleys and hot dog stands, this Gen X-approved crawl maps every worthy temple of tropical kitsch still standing across the LA basin — because some things from the '50s and '60s are absolutely worth preserving.
8 places: Tiki-Ti, Tonga Hut, The Lucky Tiki, Tiki No, Lucky Tiki Highland Park, Purple Orchid, Secret Island Tiki Restaurant and Lounge, Tiki Kai

Let It Out: The Best Places to Cry in Brooklyn
look, sometimes you just need to cry, and the question is where. not your apartment (your roommates will ask if you're okay), not the subway (though respect to everyone who has cried on the L train), not a coffee shop (the ambient indie folk playlist will somehow make it worse). brooklyn has a specific geography for emotional processing that new york doesn't talk about enough — waterfront piers where the wind gives you a reason to have wet eyes, a 478-acre victorian cemetery where nobody is surprised you're sad, a botanic garden where crying next to the cherry blossoms is basically fine art, and a boardwalk at the end of the earth on a cold tuesday in november where you can be as loud as you want because the ocean doesn't care. this guide is not a joke — these are genuinely the best places in brooklyn to feel something, let it move through you, and come out the other side.
9 places: The Green-Wood Cemetery, Brooklyn Botanic Garden — Japanese Hill-and-Pond Garden, Brooklyn Bridge Park — Pier 1, North End, Prospect Park Boathouse — The Lullwater, WNYC Transmitter Park — Greenpoint Waterfront, Louis Valentino Jr. Park & Pier — Red Hook's Hidden End of the Earth, Jane's Carousel — When You Need Something Gentle, Coney Island Boardwalk — Off Season, On Purpose
