326

This place is closed for renovations (closing it during summer it’s not the best idea). This place has been here for a long time, good if you need a place to stop by for a drink or get one with your dinner.
The bartender is a character. You need your sense of humor to deal with him. But there are other decent people working. The beer selection could be better, I wasn’t happy when they stopped carrying the Fat Tire beer on draft. $ 6 for a beer, $ 4 during HH (M-​F, 3pm-​6pm). Decent area, great to hang out. Hopefully it will re-​open and it’ll be better. Better space, better service, better beer selection (I’m an amber beer type of girl, OK?).

There’s so many fun places to find food at the Farmers Market, but this is the place we go to grab a pitcher of beer to drink with our dinner. Even when it’s busy, it doesn’t seem to take long to get our beer. And I like the ambiance around this bar as well — it’s more central than the Market’s other bar, and just has a more intimate feel. Glad 326 is there, especially when we’re eating next door at Loteria! Enjoy!

The best service, knowledgable about beer. The pitcher I ordered was spilling over it was so full and no foam! Then we enjoyed some tennis and a great crowd!

I never thought I would have an experience that was so bad it prompted me to give a really Unilocal review — but without exaggeration, I had THE WORST experience at 326 last night that I have ever had in my over a decade of going out to bars (and 5+ of those were spent as a bartender and server as well).
My boyfriend and I ordered a round of beers to go with our quick dinner we were sharing at the bar after an early movie. A little before 9pm we had both finished our beers (how do I know it was exactly 9pm you ask? — A. we were checking the time to make sure we would still leave within the 4-​hour Grove movie validation window and B. we got sucked into American ninja Warrior which was on TV and had decided to stay for the next episode which was about to start).
By 9:20 the bartender hadn’t been over to us once despite the fact that we had been sitting there for 20 minutes with empty pint glasses. In fact, he hadn’t even looked over in our direction because we had found it pretty impossible to catch his attention to order our next round. So… We started doing what anyone else would do, we started saying «excuse me,» to get his attention. Once, no reaction, twice, no reaction. I started to wonder if he heard us. So I said it again… nothing, not even a glance in our direction. My boyfriend said it. I said it. Finally we got a reaction — the bartender yelled at us. That’s right, YELLED. AT. US.
Oh really? Because he hadn’t given us any indication for the past 20 minutes that he had heard or seen us. He could have just acknowledged us calmly the first time I tried to get his attention (after I had already patiently waited 20 minutes for him to actually DO HIS JOB). But all that aside — I have never in all my years heard or seen someone in the service industry yell at a customer. He should be fired as far as I am concerned.
Obviously we got up and immediately left — and I can promise you I will NEVER be back to this place again. There are too many other places I can take my money and patronage in LA where I won’t have to fear being treated so poorly.

rad bar. simple but OUTDOORS. so much cool breeze, no sweating, no crowdedness.

horrible, horrible service. I haven’t been here in a year because of law school, and I was excited to take my boyfriend before doing some shopping. i wouldn’t say the service was top notch in the past, but the bartenders were friendly enough.
wow, what a completely different experience this time around. my boyfriend and i went just before noon on a Tuesday, and there was a blonde woman tending the bar. She saw us taking a seat but didn’t greet us (rather looked annoyed).
instead of asking us if we were ready or if she could see our IDs… she had the dirtiest look on her face and the first words out of her mouth were — «just to let you guys know, when you guys come to a *bar*, you’re supposed to have your IDs ready.»
uhhhh…ok. i was a bit confused as to why she was talking to us like we just turned 21 or something, as if it was our first time at a bar (we are in our late 20s). if bartenders ever questioned our age, they would generally ask to see our IDs.
i was taken aback — it was SO clear that she didn’t want us there. maybe because we were dressed like street urchins, she probably thought we didn’t have any money. She was super friendly to the English (probably wealthy) patrons though.
further, after we paid our bill and got up to leave, she didn’t even say thank you or look at us. Turned her back towards us actually as she saw us getting ready to leave. It was such a bizarre experience. Felt like she was annoyed with us, because (1). she thought we didn’t have money; and (2). I am Asian and my boyfriend is an Italian foreigner.
Were we in LA? Was this 2014? In this day and age where businesses pride themselves on great customer service, I was really astounded by her prejudicial and condescending attitude. I wanted to call the manager of the bar to complain, but after reading the other reviews, I realized the manager doesn’t really care to stop this type of negative atmosphere by allowing her to continue in the manner that she does. Maybe this type of attitude is encouraged to keep minorities and «poor» people out.
Like another reviewer mentioned, don’t worry, we will never go back. You will have one less Asian girl and a foreign Italian guy sitting at your bar!

My favorite place in the Farmers Market. Perfect for meeting a group of friends or spending the afternoon people watching. Wine selection is okay with champagne singles, but the selection of beer is really the attraction. By the bottle or by the draught they have something for everyone.
I tend to like the IPAs, however, on a hot summer day the Famers Market Ale is my favorite. Pair this visit with the Loteria Mexican food stall next door and you have the possibility of a «California Power Lunch.»

Super nice Bartender! This is a really great place to get drinks with fellow assistants! Good atmosphere to talk!

This is great pit-​stop, or better yet, a chill hangout on a lazy day. It’s a place with plenty of regulars, and you might even spot a Hollywood star. William Petersen (Grissom in CSI) was standing behind me and watching the game on the TV in the bar :)
They only serve wine and beer, and that’s good enough.
They have roughly two dozens of beer, in which half are on tap and the rest bottled.
Bartenders friendly, and you have plenty of food options next to the bar. The bar is basically centrally located in the Farmer’s market.
Salut!

You wont be disappointed if you try out 326 in the Farmer’s Market. Surrounded by yummy eateries, this little bar has some great beers on tap– especially the Farmers Market Honey Blonde! Try it out on a Friday evening when they have free concerts in the Market!

My one and only trip to LA was made even better spending a few hot afternoons with friends and regulars of 326 in the Farmer’s Market. We enjoyed pitcher after pitcher of local beers and talked the days away under the patio umbrellas. People walked to and fro enjoying their stroll through the beautiful labyrinth of stalls and vendors. Wisps of seductive and tasty scents breezed by now and again, teasing our senses. The service was friendly and comforting at the bar. The prices were standard and worth every penny.
I truly enjoyed the few days we spent catching up with old friends and making new ones at the bar! I can’t wait to get back to LA and have a few drinks at 326!

«I will never come back I really didn’t appreciate the way the bartender treated me, she is a rude and not nicely with non regulars customers»

Beer was fine, good selection and happy hour. Place could have been lots of fun were it not for a generally angry bartender who acted annoyed at most everyone. She kept picking at her ear, blowing her nose, and rubbing ointment on her shoulder, then serving without hand-​washing.

A pitcher will cost around $ 18…casual place in the farmer market… good selection

The nice thing about the Farmers Market is they have lots of different types of food all in one place so when we can’t decide what to have for dinner, we’ll take the short trip over and just eat a little here and a little bit there.
The not so nice thing about the Farmers Market is that during the summer and holiday season, its crowded as hell and full of tourists.
The only thing in the world that can make food better and crowded touristy spots bearable is beer and wine. And 326 has both, at fair prices. And thats why if I stop by the Farmers Market during the summertime, 326 is the first place I go… and if you hate people as much as I do, I suggest you do the same.

Very cool little casual hang! Nothing fancy, but something cool and hip about being in the Farmers Market, surrounded by all kinds of food and restaurants, and as the night goes on… other places are closing up all around 326, and you’re made to feel as if you are staying up late and closing the place… like a VIP at a private, closed party.
Monday-​Friday, happy hour is from 5pm-​7pm (so, actually 2 hours are happy…), and they have daily wine and draft specials. Prices are fair, with about 10 draft beers at $ 5 – 8 per pint, and a dozen or so wine options. The service is fair, as there was just 1 bartender to service a large amount of people. But, since it’s quite laid back, no stress was had. When the seats at the bar were all taken, a couple of seats opened up just behind, and it was great yet casual to just sit and enjoy a fine brew.
I was there with a buddy of mine (hey Tim!), and surrounded by bigger groups (a birthday?), as well as people coming in from a movie as Tim and I were… and others were people dressed up a bit, likely on dates to looking to elongate the night out.
It’s a nice little retreat from the Disney-​ish feeling of The Grove (not that there’s anything wrong with that!).

326 has a good beer selection and limited wine choices, but the ambience of the Farmer’s Market and the great, friendly bar tenders far outway the selection. Great casual vibe.

Favorite bar in LA. Low key, good prices, and the bartenders are awesome people. If you get the drunchies,(drunk munchies) there’s so much good food around there as well. Highly recommended.

Hate This Bar! Won’t ever come back!
The bar is filthy, I saw a roach crawling behind the counter. The bar tender got annoyed because I was taking photos with my iPhone and started getting irate. This place sucks ass and the service sucks ass as well.
Id give it 0 stars if I could.

Honestly, what could be better than a sports bar right smack in the middle of the Farmer’s Market? I mean this is a prime people watching spot! The pitchers are in the $ 19 range and you really get your money’s worth. You could always grab lunch, shop, eat macaroons, or watch a game all while drinking your ice cold beer in the glorious LA sun. Okay I’m done swooning, but this is really the perfect way to spend a lazy Saturday.
The only reason I give it 4 stars is because they do have a very limited beer selection and it’s usually packed with not a lot of tables.
