29 Best Bars near Sylmar

“We are a family from Ukraine and we explored the surroundings of LA and found this bar, which is over 107 years old. Here we tried the most delicious burgers ?, juicy wings, tasty fries, and amazing draft beer. Thank you very much for the warm welcome!“

“A very nice and cozy place located in Sylmar. Food was well seasoned and the server was friendly and welcoming. Parking is a bit small but there's street parking as well. The only thing I didn't enjoy as much were the beans, they were slightly under cooked and bland, the rice and asada burrito were really good. Pancakes were moist and fluffy as they should. Carne asada taco was also really good however if you don't like it spicy ask for salsa on the side. Overall a nice welcoming restaurant.“

“I was very skeptical first. I decided to give it a shot as a substitution for alcohol. And I gotta say, it blew my mind. Erica shared tons of information about Kava and the effects. After drinking the recommended drinks, she was NOT wrong! It’s delicious and highly recommend anyone to try it! Definitely see myself coming back!“

“The drinks are amazing!!!!“

“Love, love, love! This place has the cutest vibe and great stuff! The charcuterie boards are so good! I’ve tried the cold brew as well very good! This time we decided to get rosé. They have a great wine selection and their staff are so sweet! Would definitely recommend!!!“

“Pretty much the only bar I went to before the quarantine, and I am thankful they have created a socially distanced patio so I can start going back.“

“What a great find this place was, I have been looking for a genuine British place and this is it, so relaxing and friendly. A little bit of home. 🇬🇧“

“Really cool atmosphere. Love all the vegan options. Wish there were more pool tables but the space is pokey. Only disappointment was the ‘pretzel’ appetiser was just Pretzilla pretzel buns and some sauce…

Dietary restrictions: Almost everything can be made or is vegan.“

“It's a small dolphins bar. Glad we came, My boyfriend is a huge dolphins and heat fan. Everyone who came cheered on the dolphins and they won the game. Seats were filled and packed with dolphin fans! It was great. I found one seat at the bar and the owner Tony was really nice. Got me a beer right away and my friends came we enjoyed a pizza from Lucifers from down the st and enjoyed the night.

Parking: Parking is on the street. And you can find any spot nearby. It's not a far walk. Or behind the bar too..

Wheelchair accessibility: It is wheel chair accessible. Wide wall ways when entering the bar“

“I did not get to order any drinks while we were there but we had a great time regardless! The atmosphere was super welcoming and fun, the game selection was nice with all the vintage arcade games you could think of, staff was nice, and bathrooms were clean and easily accessible. The games were about $1-$2 a play and they had ATMs and change machines that were all operating well. Would come again!“

“Great selection of all kinds of spirits, I noticed some of the best bourbons and whiskeys around as well. This place is reasonably priced as well, has a pool table (and change machine next to it for quarters) as well as an out door patio with picnic table seating“

“Ive been hanging out here for over 25 years.. Great place, Great bartenders and Atmosphere.“

“1st time at The Local. We enjoyed tasty food, reasonable prices, and great staff. The Dodger game was on and Francisco made sure everything was running smooth. We will be back (enjoyed sliders and fries)“

“Been twice now. I have almost 2 decades experience in the bar industry. It's food was limited but pretty good, which is why I went back. The drinks are on the pricey side. Experienced 1 good bartender, a guy. Another decent bartender, female. 1 bartender I would just walk out if they were working, a female. Neither time was busy or anything really there to bring people in, n art class one night. NFL football another night, and the football game was on only 1 a small TV in the corner away from the bar. This bar has much more potential, but it's ok. There's a lot I would do different.“

“Most Definitely a good time and had been most supportive. I apologize if I was A BIT new at learning ... appreciate you guys! It's all at ONCE. All heavy on my mind and physically challenged. For Free States FFS- Mona Li5E LA dust2 and aztec2 ZE TE ETEZ“

“I stopped here to watch the Dodgers World Series game 1. This is the local dive bar, the crowd was loud but the Dodgers had a walkoff home run so I was expecting some noise. Pool table was old school, only a quarter to play with a chalkboard of who’s next. I had a fun evening and the lady behind the bar bought me a beer, how often does that ever happen. A five star evening for me!“

“It's a small place, just simple and relaxed. Service was rapid and friendly. If you are a pool player, there is a table in the back where you will most likely find no shortage of players and challengers. I'll definitely be back soon.“

“*Unexpected Gem - My New Go-To Spot!*

I'll admit, I didn't expect to fall in love with El Potro Bar. At first glance, I thought it might not be my vibe, but boy was I wrong! This hidden gem has become my regular haunt, and for good reason.

The real stars of the show are bartenders Alejandra and Raquel. They're two of the kindest, most attentive, skilled and attractive bartenders I've encountered in ages. Their warm smiles, quick wit, and expertly crafted drinks make every visit a delight.

Sure, the atmosphere might be laid-back and slow-paced, but that's exactly what I've grown to appreciate. No pretentiousness, just genuine hospitality and a cozy ambiance that makes me feel right at home.

Alejandra and Raquel know their stuff, always willing to offer recommendations or whip up something special. Their passion shines through in every pour, and it's infectious.

Don't let the slow pace fool you - El Potro Bar has become my favorite spot to unwind, catch up with friends, or simply enjoy a perfectly chilled beer.

*Recommendations:* Come on Thursday and Ask Alejandra for a bucket of cold beers!

*Will I return?* Absolutely, and with friends in tow!“

“Love the family treatment and my beers are always cold and tasty!“

“Jessica made THE BEST Bloody Mary. We were in a rush but just wanted a quick drink. She got us in and out and I swear, that drink was life changing. It was a sign that my trip was gonna be fun and it was. Jessica was super friendly and knew how to manage everyone at the bar.“
