Opinions de Idle Hour North Hollywood
Idle Hour feels like it slipped straight out of the 1930s — a little barrel-shaped hideaway that could’ve been a secret stop for pilots (with the Bulldog Cafe in the back!), writers, or studio types between adventures. Inside, it’s low light, polished wood, and cocktails that are taken seriously: cold, strong, and perfectly balanced. Our server Jessica was a delight — attentive, charming, and made the whole night feel effortless. There’s a quiet elegance here, a sense that anything could happen before the night’s over, with no Neville Sinclair’s in sight. Rating: 10 Lady Luck’s out of 5-
Mark was extremely helpful when another venue fell through for my birthday celebration. He very kindly reserved the back room (which happens to be shaped like a bulldog) for my friends and I. The signature cocktails were delicious (try the De La Tierra) and the food was great. Can't say enough good things about them, they went above and beyond without me even asking. Highly recommend
Chad<3 We had an event at idle hour and Chad was what made the event go so smoothly and perfect. If I could give him more than 5 stars I would. He was nothing short of perfect, thank you Chad and rest of staff for such an amazing night <3 :)
Have you ever wanted to eat brunch inside a giant barrel? Do you enjoy eating eggs and day drinking under the watchful scrutiny of an enormous bulldog who is smoking a pipe but somehow still managed to look absolutely SCANDALIZED about your life choices? Do your life choices include Bottomless Drag Brunch with Lauren Banall? Well, them have I got the place for you? As the decor and website will be quick to inform you, Idle Hour is a relic of the early Los Angeles car culture of the post-war era, and is worth the trip for the novelty alone. The staff and management are delightfully friendly and welcoming. There is a patio space in both the front (sunny, no bulldog) and in back (shady, bulldog). If you go there for Drag Brunch, like we did, (highly recommend) you'll get to enjoy the back patio. In truth, my memory of the food is overshadowed by the entertainment, because it's hard to focus on both the subtleties of eggs shakshuka when trying to enthusiastically fling one dollar bills at equally enthusiastic purveyors of fabulousness, but I recall enjoying it. Also enjoyed a Drunken Elephant Theory, which is a cocktail involving coffee and a skewered luxardo cherry. My companion had a spicy margarita, which was also good but doesn't pair well with a drunken elephant. The entertainment was, unsurprisingly, the star of the show. Four fabulous lip syncing and dancing queens of drag in multiple wonderful lewks, with comfortable levels of audience engagement, even for someone like me who mostly just prefers to smile and clap along like Snow White with her forest friends. Bucket list item accomplished. Would go again, would recommend to a friend. My only criticism would be the sound level and acoustics: music would have been painfully loud without earplugs. Partly, this is a factor of the building itself being all hard surfaces: even once the music was done and I'd taken the earplugs out it was difficult to hear my companion directly across from me due to echoes from other tables. So, if you're sensitive to noise or have sound processing issues, plan to bring and wear earplugs for better enjoyment.
We came here as a birthday after party and it was perfect! We hung out in the back patio, especially the big dog room and had our own little party. Drinks were good, staff were supportive and helpful in a nice, large space. Parking was not the best but I would definitely return next time I go out in Burbank area.
Brunch was very good and the food yummy. I was a bit disappointed that I ordered the Wafflicious and no one told me they were out of bananas. My order was served without telling me so I had to ask. I noticed that they added blueberries so I wasn't too upset. I had terrific service from Anya. She was handling the bar and food orders and she was really on top of things. We got quick service and she still smiled throughout the whole time we were there. Ordered a couple of cocktails for us. Party of 4. We had a Berry Jam Cider, a Flower Girl, a House light lager and a SoCal Special. All were refreshing. Parking on street so not easy. Brunch cannot be ordered by QR code on table. Only at bar.
cute space with a history that is unique and embraced. see the giant dog statue in the patio (which is pretty big) that use to be an ice cream shop. they have big variety of beers.
The only reason atmosphere was a 4 was because as much as I enjoyed eating outside in the back with the beautiful scenery and setup, there were mosquitoes patrolling and I am a walking target. I was on high alert while enjoying my drink, food and company. It's the hazard of eating outdoors during the summer evening. Other than this pesky issue, everything was amazing 👏
I am a frequent guest at idle hour and consistently appreciate the amazing atmosphere and exceptional service provided by all of the staff/team. The team delivers a wonderful experience each visit, which is why I love to continue to return. During my most recent visit, I noticed a recurring issue with the beer quality. Each of the four different beers I ordered were warm and overly foamy. On the other hand the cocktails that we had were great. Given how amazing the service and environment are, idle hour is great. Addressing the beer temperature and quality would make this venue fully deserving of a five-star rating.
Service 5/5 our server was very sweet and kept checking on us. Ambiance 5/5 super fun vibe, love the out back/ out side and the random pipe smoking dog. Food 2-5 based on other reviews I wanted it to be better than bar food but it’s straight up have something to eat while you are drinking. Idle burger- dry and lacked flavor / seasoning Cheesesteak- please change the name. This is not a cheesesteak - this is a dry steak sandwich that has barely any cheese on it with a lot of dry bread. Fish tacos- fine Portobello steak fries- taste like dirt weird texture. Flatbread- is pizza from high school cafeteria Pretzel was the best- although was it really a homeboy pretzel? It’s not served with the amount of cheese sauce show in the photo and it’s not cheese sauce it’s like rotel dip. Now the worst part is how you order and pay for food on your phone …. So even if you want an appetizer or decide you want more sooner or later it’s all through your phone and a tip is asked for each time. We had 3 phones and each different levels of difficulty in submitting orders. It’s is fun and cute and I would possibly come back it’s just somewhere I know what to expect now. Parking is difficult.
do not come here for food unless it is absolutely necessary and i'm talking a life or death scenario been here a few times for a quick meal and safe to say that the food is terrible and you will be better off making frozen fish sticks at home (i suspect fish and chips is actually just gordon's frozen fish) anyway, food aside drinks are fantastic here. love that they have a buddy system and my must order is the PB and J
My brother accidentally left his card at the bar on a recent Saturday night, called the next day, and was told it wasn't there. He then went there personally to double check again and it turns out they did have it and gave it back. Shortly after, he saw a charge made for TikTok shop on his statement which he didn't make. DO NOT trust the bartenders with your cards, they will take advantage if an opportunity arises.
