Know something we don't?
Bar 107 is the kind of place where your friends call you -- late at night, while they're drunk -- because they don’t want you to miss “the best night ever.” You pull yourself out of bed and head down to the Skid Row-adjacent bar, where things start to get a little screwy. Step through the keyhole-shaped door into a historic bar with pressed-tin ceilings, blood-red walls (dotted with plenty of kitsch and taxidermy) and black-and-white checkerboard linoleum on the floor. Follow a narrow pathway past the old-school wooden bar, the elevated dance floor and the black-and-white photo booth. Turn left down a dark hallway, which leads to the smoky outdoor patio, where you will most likely find your friends sitting in a candle-lit circular booth working on one too many tall cans of Pabst Blue Ribbon.
