For a dive bar, Backstage brings a lot to the plate! Customers can enjoy darts, pool table and even a vintage Pac-Man arcade game (the kind where you can sit down to play and have somewhere to rest your drink!) The juke-box provides a wonderfully ecelctic soundtrack to any evening, with styles ranging from old-school rock to new-school rock. As Backstage is also a karaoke bar, the music selection is always fresh! This also makes Backstage a great place for people watching. I find that the most intriguing and unique part of Backstage is the firepit. I've never known a Los Angeles dive bar to have such an interesting feature, and as Los Angeles cools down for winter it will surely be the coveted spot to have drinks after work. The friendly and efficient staff serve very reasonably priced drinks and, beleive me, you will find no wimpy drinks here!
Pros: inexpensive, good parking, crowded
