Great atmosphere. If you like cheap canned beer, sticker bombs and shitty pool tables, and are stuck in this downtown LA neighborhood, this is probably your move.
I played with my band Skull Riot there. Great venue. Cool vibes. Cool people. Great sound. What else do you want. They even have some pinball machines.

Cool spot, but drinks are over priced and they don’t itemize your receipt, which is a terrible look when they charging what must be $18+tax for 2oz of mid shelf on the rocks.

Hidden inside another batlr that also hidden inside another bar.
Great place to see a show as the only way to know about this place or find it is to be a cool kid in the know.
💯 Worth catching a show here.

Cool place in DTLA. Nice little venue/bar, with an outdoor patio on the 2nd floor. Great place to see a band, and have a drink.

Nice place, lots of character. Went for one of their frequent theme nights but felt like the amount of actual space open for dancing left a lot to be desired. Gets cramped and hot on the 2nd floor pretty fast. Cocktails were expensive and weak. If I'm gonna pay $18 for a rum and coke it better taste like there's alcohol in it. If you're gonna go for one of their dance theme nights, pre game HARD

Good place, good pinball but bad drink prices. $8 for a small can of modello. $15 for a unbranded whisky and ginger. Prices aren't marked on the walls
This is a bar a really like coming back to. They've got pool, pacman, and pinball. However, the most recent time I went one of the female bartenders made a drink for my friend and then gave it to someone else. This would have been remedied if she had checked up on us again (we were still waiting by the bar) but she completely forgot about my friend and did not come back up.
Crazy space. The Slipper Clutch doesn't have any outdoor signage, the bar exists behind another space that you walk through to get to it. You can sort of see the interior sign from the street if you look. The guy bouncing the place next door seemed really used to answering the question of Where is the slipper clutch!
Inside there are like three or four bar areas with totally different vibes. The first area is more high class, fancy night bar. Through the door is another bar that's more punk rock, has arcade games and pool tables. It's kinda small but decent. They have a back patio too. The patio door was open all night so the place smelled of smoke from the outdoor smokers. If you keep going and go upstairs, you'll find the venue area with yet another bar. The music up there stays loud as heck so it kind of always sounds like a band is playing even when it's just the interstitial music. For the show I went to, bands didn't start playing until almost an hour and a half after the listed time, so definitely don't come early if you're just coming to rock. Tickets were cash only at the door, but it was only $7 - prices we ain't seen in decades! The music space itself is pretty decent, the stage is kinda small but it gets the job done. The room is pretty spacious and there was plenty of room for a bunch of people but also room to get away from the wild ones if you needed. There's also a very tiny upstairs patio (more like a ledge) but good to get some air. Pretty decent overall experience. I don't think they had food there but I didn't really look. Didn't see anybody eating anything tho! There are only two tables, outside on the patio. Otherwise it's bar or standing. Definitely not wheelchair accessible.
Awesome dive bar
