I am actually very, very surprised that I haven't written up Copa d'Oro before now. It seems like we have been going there forever! It truly is one of my favorite drinking spots in L.A. Not only do they have superb cocktails, but they have happy hour Tuesday - Saturday from 5:30 - 8pm. I love that it's till 8pm! And Mondays it goes alllllll night!!
Copa's happy hour menu offers 12 different hand-crafted cocktails for just $5. Yes, that's right!!! JUST $5!!! Most of the cocktails are from Prohibition times such as a Clover Club, Dark and Stormy, or my fave, a Whiskey Sour.
Whiskey Sour $5
Bourbon, Lemon Juice, Egg White
Clover Club $5
Gin, Lemon Juice, Raspberry Syrup, Egg White
Moscow Mule $5
Vodka, Lime Juice, Ginger Beer
Gold Rush $5
Bourbon, Honey, Lemon Juice
Here's the full happy hour cocktail menu:
But if you aren't a cocktail lover, Copa also offers selected beers for $4 and $5 house wine.
When they first started happy hour, they didn't offer discounted food but they do now! Yay! You can get selected paninis for $6 and dips for &7.
So if you love hand-crafted cocktails, this is the place to go!!

I was wondering when you would get around to reviewing them! :o)
ReplyDeleteIn any case, I'm glad you did. Copa has always had a special place in my heart (awwww) since it was the 1st Bar to introduce me to truly exceptional cocktails. Of all the bars in and around LA, if Copa were to shut down operations, I'd miss them the most.
Thanks for blogging them!
Cheers.
I know! It took forever! lol
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for all the nice comments you leave, Memo. Very much appreciated!! :)
You are very welcome, Vixen. But really, it is YOU that deserves the thanking. Your blog is very enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteSince becoming a reader/follower/subscriber (or whatever you wanna call it), I've been exposed to a few new bars and restaurants for Happy Hour. With a couple of exceptions, I've agreed with most of your takes on the places you've reviewed. Your commentary is concise and entertaining. Your photographs only help seal the deal for me. No doubt, you have a fun blog to visit. Keep up the good work, Vix! I hope you don't mind me abbreviating your name. =)
Btw How's that App of yours coming along? Droid? iPhone? Both? I look forward to it. Good day to you! =)
Aw, thanks Memo. :D And yes, "Vix" is fine. Many ppl use it.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, we are working on the app and it'll be done hopefully by March and will be for both iPhone and Androids. I'm very excited!! I'll keep you posted!
