Apotheke

What are your initial impressions of this bar?
Much like the New York City original, the L.A. outpost of Apotheke, a tucked-away Chinatown bar, exudes opulence and sexiness. The space includes an eclectic, globally themed outdoor oasis that—unlike the East Coast location—Angelenos can enjoy (almost) year-round.

Cool. So who’s there?
A stylish, sexy crowd that matches the setting.

What are they drinking? Take us through the drinks list.
The botanically infused cocktail menu is divided into sections: Aphrodisiacs, Euphoric Enhancers, Health & Beauty, and Stimulants. As Apotheke’s name implies, all of the drinks here are made with the sorcery and precision of an old-world pharmacist—just what the doctor ordered.

Any snack options to pair with our drinks?
The drinks are culinary creations in themselves. If you’re hungry, head to David Chang’s Majordomo across the way.

Did the staff do you right?
Bar staff are seasoned industry pros who have been carefully selected for this particularly service-driven bar.

Cool. So what would you recommend this place for?
Apotheke is ideal for date night or for a group hang on the patio.
