NIGHTLIFE: COFFEE HOUSES Frommer
Bourgeois Pig

With its positively gothic aversion to natural lighting (the only street-front window is covered with a blood-red tint), this dark cavern has more of a bar atmosphere than the usual coffeehouse. In fact, Bourgeois Pig is to Starbucks what Marilyn Manson is to Celine Dion. This veteran, located on a hot business strip at the Hollywood/Los Feliz border, is a favorite among youths and showbiz drones, who enjoy losing themselves on couches tucked into shadowed corners, shooting a game of pool, or perusing something from the terrific newsstand next door.

5931 Franklin Ave.Phone: 323/962-6366.
