Pattern Bar

Pattern Bar, (100 W 9th St., Los Angeles, 90015; 213.627.7774) is a new spot in Downtown’s Fashion District. It seems the new trend are airy, open patios to sip cocktails and this bar is just that. Decorated with black-and-white pillars, this spot is perfect for sandwiches or some arepas-Venezuelan corn cakes, topped with anything from chicken to braised pork and sea salt. For dinner, munch on plates of olives, plantains and sweet-corn crepes and sip on Gaultiers (rum, watermelon, agave and lemon) and McQueens (gin, elderflower, passion fruit).
