Parks & Nature
Griffith Park
4730 Crystal Springs DriveGreat for a hike and sightseeing!
This place really makes you fall in love with LA. The views are spectacular; you can see pretty much the entirety of LA from certain places along the trail, including the Hollywood sign and the famous Beverly Hills mountainside. Parking is limited, so it's better to take an Uber/Lyft.

Drinks & Nightlife
Happy Hour until 7pm with $4 drink specials. Food is not very expensive especially for LA and the bar has a fun vibe. Secret patio section off to the side of the restaurant. Its a little dark inside but very much fits the theme of an English pub. Big plus, it is walking distance!
