Sure, we’ve already got the Magic Castle, but if you don’t know a member and your taste in bar food skews Thai—Luv2Eat Thai Bistro is behind the delicious menu here—then you’re going to need a trip to Black Rabbit Rose, a magic-themed bar in Hollywood. The well-appointed interiors and excellent curation of vibes, drinks and food comes courtesy of Houston Hospitality, the group behind La Descarga, Harvard & Stone, No Vacancy and Downtown’s Level 8. The bar features tableside sleight of hand and surprises at every turn, as well as an additional magic-leaning variety show in the bar’s own theatre. Think: Victorian splendor (leather booths, red curtains, fancy dress) and Houdini-esque theatrics, even when it comes to the cocktails. Unlike the duo’s other spot on this list, there’s no rotating bed to lead you in; just look for the sign of a rabbit at the corner of Hollywood Boulevard and Hudson Avenue, walk beneath the nondescript awning and you’re there.
