The Village Idiot

Los Angeles carries 50 pub listings on this page, but the count alone won't tell you who picks up the phone. Of those, 42 list a phone number and 40 list a website, so most entries give you a way to actually reach the place before you drive over. Zips like 90012, 90036, 90045, 90046, and 91311 each hold two listings, a reminder that coverage bunches up in a handful of neighborhoods while others show just one. None of these listings are marked verified, and paid placements are labeled Sponsored when a business pays for one, though none appear on this Los Angeles page right now, so what you're scrolling is plain directory order.

If you run one of these pubs and notice your number or site missing, you can claim the listing and add what's there. Filling in that gap matters most in a thinner zip, where one missing phone number is the difference between a customer calling ahead and driving past. Use this page as a starting point, not a ranking, and call two or three spots before you settle on where to grab a pint tonight.
