"Your typical college hangout in the heart of Westwood. A sports and grill bar with a colorful dive bar vibe, it's a nice place to catch a game, cheap brews, and hang out with friends over fries and wings. There are TV screens everywhere, so you'll have a good view over the score as you play shuffleboard with your friends and strangers (new friends) alike." - Grace Duong
"Your older brother who’s married with two kids is in town and his only requirement is a restaurant with chicken fingers. They’re obviously staying in Santa Monica, so just make it easy and head to Barney’s Beanery on the Promenade. Everybody will find something they like on the massive menu, and once conversation moves solely to weather-related topics, Barney’s impressive beer stock will get you through the rest." - brant cox
"Like their Weho location, Barney’s Beanery in Westwood is open for outdoor sports watching. They’ve got everything we love about the Weho location - craft beer, nachos, and tons of TV screens." - brett keating
"If you’ve ever watched a sporting event at a bar in LA County, there’s a 50/50 chance that bar was a Barney’s Beanery. With locations from Redondo Beach to Pasadena, their big, boisterous sports bars are everywhere, and definitely get wild on NFL Sundays. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation
"It’s true that Barney’s is a sports bar with multiple locations throughout the city. But the reason we like them so much is that they’ve mastered everything that’s great about sports bars - a huge tap list, tons of good fried food, and roughly 12,000 TVs around the place. The Barney’s in Westwood is particularly great because of their near-constant Happy Hours and other deals on drinks. They’ve also got one of the best trivia nights in LA, Wednesdays at 9pm, where there’s a large contingent of UCLA professors to compete against, and $4 PBRs to make your inevitable defeat that much more palatable." - brett keating
