OPENAIRE
At Openaire, two Michelin star Chef Josiah Citrin works with the best of California’s ingredients from land and sea. After two decades spent in the Los Angeles fine dining world, Openaire is an accessible take on his award-winning, California-driven sensibilities. Presented in shareable formats, embracing each season, and celebrating the melting pot that is LA: Openaire is an oasis of green in the heart of Koreatown.

LOBBY BAR
Just the classics – with a Koreatown twist. Lobby Bar is a gathering spot for locals and travelers alike, and an unpretentious hang that keeps the good stuff simple. With a desert-island-lineup of cocktails by celebrated barman (aka Sydell’s James Beard award-winning VP of Food & Beverage) Leo Robitschek, each drink veers off course – in the very best way – with nods to surrounding K-Town, Angeleno inspirations, and chill retro vibes.

ALFRED
But first, coffee… with beloved LA-based caffeine purveyors Alfred serving coffee, their signature matcha, and easy food to take away in the lobby. Stay a while, why don’t you?

BREAK ROOM 86
Having grown up in K-town in the 80s, brothers Mark and Jonnie Houston have created a time warp of a bar that takes guests back a few decades, complete with live performances, guest DJs, karaoke suites (yes – karaoke suites), a dance floor, nostalgia-inducing cocktails, and boozy push-pops.

KISS KISS BANG BANG
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is a deco-disco dreamscape brought to you by the Houston Brothers. This is their third concept at the LINE LA – sliding up alongside the ‘80s-soaked nostalgia machine Break Room 86 and the exclusive suite experience, The Speek. The brothers are creating an homage to the glitz and glam of the disco era, combined with a Gatsby-esque decadence of the roaring 20s.

This Fun Pop-Up Bar Is Serving a Punchbowl Cocktail Called "Hey Bae"
We've all heard of pop-up shops and probably have made it to a couple featuring your favorite brands. But what about a pop-up cocktail club? The LINE in LA's Koreatown, thought just that when they launched their new bar program not too long ago. They called in the Happy Hour Agency to design and produce the experience after meeting them at another pop-up a couple years back. Situated at The LINE's lobby bar, the menu has fun drinks like "The Hey Bae" that's served in a punch bowl. We caught up with The LINE about the new experience and how they are providing "a platform for our community to express themselves creatively."

See How The LINE Hotel is Bringing Together Creatives with Their "Dinner With Strangers" Series
Known for being a place of community + gathering, The LINE Hotel welcomes travelers and neighbors alike to their “haven for creative expression” in Koreatown, Los Angeles. This summer, The LINE hosted a dinner series, aptly named “Dinner with Strangers,” that gathered influencers from all corners of the creative industry to share a meal and conversation. The goal: to bring big thinkers together to dine and ideate on what makes a space great. The “Dinner with Strangers” series not only encouraged strangers to become friends, but also enabled a dialogue for the hotel’s team to learn more about how influencers view communal spaces, including hotels and restaurants, what qualities make a gathering space great and also what features make someone want to stay in one venue over another. The diners agreed, ambiance and emotional connection play a big role in deciding on where to stay and play. Photography by Gia Trimble

Pool Party Product Launch With the Ban.do Babes at The Line Hotel
When one of the coolest, serious-about-fun, girl-led, bad-a** brands in LA approaches you to help them find the most perfect poolside to host their summer product launch soiree, well, if you're us, you roll up yo sleeves and set to one heckuva hot venue search for a "rosé all day".kinda spot.  We'd been fans of the indomintable Jen Gotch and the Ban.do #girlgang for some time, so when the opportunity came about to work together, we knew that hotline bling could only mean one thing.... FUN, and lots of it (ok, ok and lots of neon and pool floats). We knew we needed to find the ultimate location that would show off not only the new Outdoor FUN line of products we'd been dreaming of, posting about and well coveting in a maaaaaajor way for all of our poolside par-TAYs, but the inherent spirit of design and forward-thinking so prevalent in the Ban.do brand. When you NEED a floral day planner, neon bendy straws, rainbow unicorn pool float and an "I Heart Pina Coladas" ring, you know you're onto something special.  If all the world is a stage, then certainly the venue is the massively important opening act. A hop, skip and a quick cannonball from the heart of Tinseltown in Koreatown we fell in perfect step with the The Line Hotel,  where an unmistakable sense of "cool" and "fun" emanates from it's mid-century bones and it's pedigree reflects the heartbeat of the vibrant city it stands prominently and proudly in the middle of. Perfect.
