Atwater Village

If you’re an eastsider, Atwater Village is where you move if you want to feel a little bit grown up, but aren’t quite ready to be Eagle Rock grown up. Once no more than poppy fields, this lesser known, little-brother neighborhood is on the rise. Compete with other “creatives” to get a “I can’t believe we actually got it” house before Forbes gets word about all the cool stuff happening here and ruins everything. But seriously, this place is as diverse as it is welcoming. Quiet, tree-lined streets? Check. Surplus of locals-heavy happy hours and vibrant weekend energy? Yep. New bars, cafes and interesting shops opening on the regs? All the time. That elusive ‘community feel’? In spades. It's the perfect LA neighborhood for discovery...and also brunch.

Around since 1946, Club Tee Gee is maybe the best way to end a raucous evening in Atwater. This neighborhood pillar has a front door plaque proclaiming it’s “The Cheers of Atwater Village” and it’s hard to argue. It’s the right kind of throw back, with green leather booths and vintage memorabilia with some Sinatra on the jukebox and a plethora of regulars. Get lost with some friends here because you’ll feel no need to leave for hours…in part because the prices do not feel anywhere near LA. Soon enough everyone will know your name, unless you start whining about the lack of finely crafted microbrews or try to pay with a card. Just be cool, relax and bring some cash. It’s old school.
