33 Taps, Ryan Floyd’s family-owned and queer-owned neighborhood sports bar with locations in Silver Lake and Culver City, is expanding to Downtown Los Angeles on game day, Sunday, Feb. 11. Located within Moxy & AC Hotel Downtown, it will be the brand’s largest location to date with a 5,000-square-foot sports bar, 3,000-square-foot game room, and outdoor seating.
On grand opening day, all 50 of the 75-inch television screens will display the football final, including a three-sided jumbotron that runs the length and width of the bar offering views from any vantage point. 33 Taps will close out the football season with specialty cocktails dedicated to the final two teams, food and beverage packages, and giveaways to local sports games and events.
The centralized full bar will pull from a custom-built draft system that supplies its extensive beer list and daily hand-batched and kegged cocktails. The game room, a new addition to the 33 Taps experience, will house a second full-service bar paired with 15 sports-themed games including retro arcade and pinball machines, along with shuffleboard, boxing, basketball hoops, foosball, Mario Kart and more.
