Bigfoot Lodge

"Some people say Bigfoot Lodge’s woodsy theme is cheesy, and to them we say not cheesy enough. We live in the land of January pool days, so we’ll take all the lumberjack vibes we can get. Big Foot is always a good time thanks to its great cocktail list, unpretentious crowd, and room to get a little rowdy. Plus, if you’re competitive, brilliant, or have a lovely voice, you should know they host karaoke on Mondays and trivia on Wednesdays. " - arden shore, sylvio martins, brant cox

"Sometimes you want to drink in Los Angeles, but also feel like you’re maybe in Yosemite. Welcome to Bigfoot Lodge. The Eastside staple certainly doesn’t hide from its own novelty, and we’re completely OK with that. The old-school cocktails are the way to go at this wilderness lodge-themed bar, or you can let the night really kick into high gear with one of the (actually) excellent “Bartender Shots.” See you in the morning." - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren, kat hong, brett keating

"Step into the wonderfully quirky Bigfoot Lodge and it feels like you’ve been transported to Yosemite or Yellowstone – this is how you do a themed bar. Their signature décor feels right, from the mason jar lamps, trunk tables, taxidermy lined walls and a Smokey the Bear. They have a stellar happy hour from 5 to 9, and have some fun, boozy karaoke and trivia nights, as well as some sets by local and cover bands. It’s the perfect neighborhood bar to let loose with friends." - Brains on Fire

"Some people say Bigfoot Lodge’s woodsy theme is cheesy, and to them we say not cheesy enough. We live in the land of pool days in January and forest fire warnings for the majority of the year, so give us those Yukon vibes all you want. Big Foot is always a good time thanks to its great cocktail list, an unpretentious crowd, and room to get a little rowdy." - brant cox, brett keating

"If you’ve heard a lot about “aprés-ski” (which basically translates to getting drunk in a ski lodge), but you have no idea how to ski or where the closest snow is, look no further than Bigfoot Lodge. This bar in Atwater goes heavy on the mountain bar theme, and pulls it off. On weekend nights at Bigfoot, you’ll find a whole bunch of people ready to mix it up with some dancing and very well-made cocktails." - brant cox, brett keating
