Akbar

In celebration of the inaugural of our nation’s 44th President, The World Dive Bar Tour this week visits Akbar — Los Angeles’s best dive with a scary, muslim-sounding name. Join us in celebration, or, if you’re one of those rare Hollywood Republicans, you can stop by and embrace the downfall of our civilization in this den of liberal debauchery, where "Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell" was long-ago abolished in favor of a highly gay-friendly dance floor.

And Republicans, if dancing isn’t your thing, the separate bar area is a great place to drown your sorrows on drinks that balance Bush Recession® prices with an elitist flair, including a Wednesday special of $4 Cosmopolitans. Or, take up smoking on the sidewalk of Sunset Blvd, because with Socialized Health Care on the way, you might as well take steps to ensure you’re getting the most out of those increased taxes.

As usual, the casual debauchery starts around 9PM and gets really interesting by 10:00. Come for one drink, or stay for one too many. Bring anyone and everyone, and join us for a great time in the middle of the week. If you arrive early or late, look for the people having a damn good time (it’ll be us), or start having a damn good time on your own (we’ll find you).

Carpe Drink’em!
