Romantic notions of finding my own personal Romeo may have propelled me into The Well, but the cheap, potent cocktails have summoned me back again and again. I love stopping by during the daily 5-9 p.m. happy hour when well drinks, house wines and delightful martinis are only $4. Ever so often, I’ll even splurge and order one of the specialty cocktails – like the $5 mango martini. With so many nearby establishments shamelessly charging $12 for cocktail, I look forward to spending less than ten bucks for two tasty drinks.
I’m also a fan of The Well’s ambiance: it’s chill, it’s relaxed, it’s modestly hip. In fact, reminds me of a cross between a cozy lounge and a down-to-earth dive bar, with dim lighting, sleek black booths and intimate hide-ways. This windowless, square-shaped bar is a welcomed relief to the surrounding saturation of overpriced, cookie-cutter, touristy traps that clutter the blocks of Tinseltown.
I’ve seen The Well in the afternoon, just before the crowds filter in and I’ve seen it when it’s been packed on Friday nights. I’ve seen love connections made here and really hot men in flannel shirts. But, the real question at hand is…will I see you there soon? Hope so!
