The Best Dive Bars In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Walking into HMS Bounty, the classic, nautical-themed dive in Ktown, on a weekday afternoon is a feast for the senses. The place feels like you stepped into steerage on an aging cruise ship: there are musty leather booths, “Careless Whisper” quietly playing over the intercom, and scattered tables filled with old dudes sipping well tequila from a shot glass. In other words, it’s an absolute dreamscape and the kind of place where you could hang out for hours and have no one—besides the bartender, of course—attempt to make eye contact with you." - brant cox
