Cold Shoulder Bar

One of the best craft cocktail bars in L.A! Unique setting, friendly and experienced bartenders, and exquisite cocktails.

This a a very cool bar. It is located inside of the Blue Collar as a "Speak Easy", complete with secret door. Once inside, everything on the walls is upside-down. It reminded me of falling into the hold that Alice did in Alice in Wonderland. The cocktail menu is full of interesting drink and the round up of liquor choices is also quite extensive. Cocktails will run you $20 - $25 but are really good. All garnishes are edible but they do also have chips and salsa for $6.

My favorite bar for date nights. Great atmosphere, tasty drinks and the service is timely considering how much attention goes into every detail. I'll be back :)

This is the speak easy section of Blue Collar. There's a secret door in Blue Collar that leads inside, but also they sometimes have the front door open. The interior of Cold Shoulder is very interesting; everything is upside down. It's low lighting which is great. It's a cute date spot. The drinks were really good! The prices are a tad high, but comprable to other bars in LA.

My friends and I came here for a drink one night. It's a "speakeasy" bar attached to Blue Collar, but pretty sure you can sometimes access it directly from the street. Very cool interior, everything is upside down and there are fake paintings of all the presidents plastered on the wall (also upside down). Large cocktail menu but not an overwhelming number of options, and everything is broken down by the liquor of choice. I ended up choosing a drink, I think something called an Italian Margarita. I wish I remember what was in it but it was nutty as described, and had a unique rim of sesame seeds on the glass which I loved. Really unique cocktail and it seems like all of them are that way! Hefty cocktail price but not too much of a surprise since you're at a cool speakeasy in LA.Also - LOVE the music in here. Think fun feel-good music that you know all the words to.

Delicious drinks and a fun spot, but drinks are v expensive, so it's fun to take visitors for 1 or 2 cocktails, but unfortunately won't be my regular neighborhood hangout. But you should pop in and check it out at least once!

Cool speakeasy with unique decoration (everything is upside down)! Some seats are right under or close to speakers playing music, so my friend and I switched tables to get as far away from the speaker as possible.Plenty of cool cocktail options in their menu! I'll be back!

Cold Shoulder Bar is a great spot to check out! Definitely not your everyday bar, but it's a great beginning or end of the night spot with friends who can appreciate an inventive cocktail.The ambiance is very fun - immediately after entering the bar you are transported to an upside down world. There's plenty to look at on the walls and the ceilings! Also, note that the door to get into the speakeasy is a sliding door. I struggled for a few seconds before the bartender at Blue Collar mimed to me to pull it to the left. As for drinks, I went for the Bugs Bunny which is one of their regular cocktails at $20. I wanted something unique and it definitely accomplished that. But a $20 cocktail with.... New Amsterdam Vodka?? Sheesh. And I'm sorry but the celery garnish was literally a limp piece of dirty celery which was kinda icky if you ask me. It definitely bended and did not snap hahaAll in all, cocktails are certainly tasty and fun and different, but nothing absolutely mind boggling.

This bar is awesome. Yes, the cocktails are on the expensive side, but they are excellently crafted and well worth it. The staff is so nice and the music is always fantastic. Love this place!!!

Front door wide open - not very "speakeasy". We were the only two customers (around 9pm on a Monday); bartender didn't acknowledge us and at some point there were three staff behind the bar (barback, bartender from the other side) chatting, on their phones, etc.We were told to order at the bar.....Drinks were just okay and $25 a pop.....not planning to return based on service, lack of sophistication, craft and price.
