Happy Rabbit is a hopping good time.
This local neighborhood bar & lounge has quite a lot with a front and back patio, comfy couches, bar seating, pool table/billiards, darts, jukebox and more.
The bartenders are friendly and cool.
Extensive signature cocktails. Cool mocktails.
Craft beer as well as imported and domestic.
Solid wine options (with a great Wine Wednesday special) and of course your classic non-alcoholic essentials (soda, juice, etc.)
They have a great digital jukebox, but typically have a great variety of music playing.
Happy Rabbit pulls out a few cool themed nights from it's hat including poker nights, karaoke nights, trivia night and sporting events (ufc, baseball, basketball, you name it) often.
The flat screens are abundant and you can enjoy whatever is playing for just about every angle of the bar, including their huge projector.
Surrounded by cool art and well placed mild minimalist decor.
Happy Hour is daily from 4pm to 8pm, with a late night happy hour or extended special with the purchase of food via outdoor vendors like Burger Bash - Smash Burgers or $5 Margarita Mondays (until 9pm).
The bar itself doesn't carry food, but they partner up with local businesses via food trucks, carts, pop-ups and stands weekly. It's nice to see this space thrive (formerly Elevate Bar) in a big way, especially being my just around the corner cocktail bar.
Bathrooms are clean as can be.
Patio has patio games, plus some seating.
Parking is easy on the street and local residential area as well as in back through the alley that you can access from Magnolia Blvd or Weddington Street from Van Nuys Blvd.

Read moreHad an amazing time at this bar on Friday night! The vibes were super relaxed and chill—perfect for unwinding with friends. Thomas, the bartender, was incredibly friendly and helpful. We were curious about the dart machine inside, and he let us know we could play for free out back. When we stepped outside, we found tons of fun games to enjoy!
The drinks were not only delicious but also came with hilarious names. I had the F@king Like Rabbits* (which was a riot to order), and my boyfriend got a mocktail—the Easter Bunny. Both were beautifully presented, as you can see from the photos!
Overall, this place is a gem. Great drinks, great atmosphere, and great people. Highly recommend for a fun night out with...
