    Immediately thrown back into time as soon as you pass through the doors. High ceilings makes you feel comfortable, lots of drinks to choose from, kale & sprouts dip is a-okay, and portions are plenty!

    Breakfast here is absolutely amazing! The place was an early 20th century bank and the beauty of it really is eye opening when you walk in. Service was friendly and food was exceptional. 10 out of 10.

    The Mac n cheese is one of the best I've tasted. I had IPA short rib, pulled pork and chorizo added to the Mac. The meats were great with the gouda, manchego and mozzarella cheeses.

    service here was friendly and affable. I had the salmon bowl, which was unique and nicely arranged. The salmon was tasty and tender. It was a lot of sauce but it did not overpower or drown the dish.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. I had my birthday Brunch there in January. I love the beautiful atmosphere and delicious food. Great deal on bottomless mimosas. Try their Federal Chicken Sandwhich. MMMmm

    Their speakeasy is just amazing. Live jazz and delicious drinks (old fashioned pictured) is the reason I'm here every Friday

    Favorite spot on Pine for great local craft beer selection, creative cocktails, and inventive cuisine; Perhaps everything tastes better at whimsical setting inside luxurious old bank.

    Here for soft launch. Great beer selection. Stunning interior dating back to 1916. Will be great to see the full bar and basement when it opens in early May. Welcome to LBC Federal Bar!

    Feel like you're living in The Great Gatsby for dinner! (The flashy, fun parts of Gatsby, not the dark, murder-y, intense-critique-of-capitalism parts of Gatbsy.)

    The bloody Mary's are made from scratch with quality ingredients. Always an event happening. A great place that dwarf's the Federal in North Hollywood

    Sweet potato tots are like candy. Try one of the beer floats. Love how Federal Bar perserved the interior. Location was used for brunch scene in Dinner with The Schmucks movie.

    Great food and a beautiful building. Try to get into the Speakeasy downstairs and beware that the wait staff is a little slow on attending to their tables.

    Cool ambiance. Old bank turned bar. Good place to enjoy a cocktail or one of many beers on draught. Personally, I recommend 'ace of spades'

    Beautiful gastro (?) grill, expensive, trendy, I had the seafood & penne pasta dish and was underwhelmed. Everyone else in my party appeared to be loving their food, so I made a dubious choice.

    They have regular tater tots but off the menu. And most servers don't know that. But if they can make maple-glazed tots, they can bring out regular ones. Don't take no for an answer on this one!

    Weird space, but decent list of local craft beers and you can find it not too crowded.

    Food is good but be prepared to wait a long time for your food and your server to come back and check on you.
