Hidden in the Hotel Normandie, this moody cocktail lounge serves up impressive drinks in a stylish enclave—perfect for a chic night out.
"Imagine a dark, cramped, and moody bar scene in a brick-walled room. Well-dressed people sip boulevardiers and discuss experimental theater. No, you aren’t on the Lower East Side or Canal Saint-Martin, you’re at Normandie Club in Koreatown. It’s an excellent first stop before a night out in Ktown, or a great nightcap destination after a dinner date for gin gimlets with black plums and late-night booth canoodling. " - brant cox, sylvio martins
"When: Mon-Sun, 6-8pm The Deal: $12 House Cocktails; $7 Bartender’s Choice Imagine a dark, cramped, and moody scene. Picture well-dressed people drinking boulevardiers and discussing experimental theater. No, you aren’t on the Lower East Side or Canal Saint-Martin, you’re at The Normandie Club, one of our favorite cocktail bars in Koreatown. It’s a great first stop before a big night out or for a weeknight 50/50 martini in a sexy little booth. " - nikko duren, garrett snyder, brant cox
"Trying to decide which place in Ktown you want to grab a drink at is not an easy task. But when it comes to capping off a solid date night, you can depend on Normandie Club. The dark, lively bar can get a little crowded on the weekends, but you’re always able to find a quiet table in the back (and a strong cocktail from the bar) to keep the good times rolling." - jess basser sanders, amy clark, brant cox
"For a solid all-around cocktail bar, head to the Normandie Club at the Normandie Hotel where bartenders prepare classic cocktails and pour high-quality spirits in a dimly lit and uniquely fun space." - Rebecca Roland
"If it weren’t for the lack of winter jackets and self-loathing, you’d swear you were in New York. But you’re not. You’re at one of our favorite cocktail bars in the neighborhood. The Normandie Club is dark, kinda cramped, and full of well-dressed people drinking Old Fashioneds. It’s an excellent first stop before a night out in K-town, or where you head after a great dinner date for some strong drinks and possible extracurriculars in a back booth." - brant cox, sylvio martins
