    I love this place. Yes go there if you love Christmas but also the service is great, music fun, and good selection of beers and cocktails (plus takeaway pizza from next door) - full of locals too

    I have spent many an hour with Frances and Sara in Lala's going back to the 1970's....love and miss that place since I now live in Tennessee.

    Austin: It's little dive bar that's both trapped in the 70's AND it's Christmas all year. Beware of elves dropping from the ceiling. You've been warned. -IFC Viewer

    Wouldn’t serve me based on one other person that was in our group earlier. Bar manager doesn’t need to be a jerk about it.

    Don't go if you don't smoke. Every goddamn person in there smokes, despite the "no smoking" sign.

    Go there. Often. With friends. It is decorated like Christmas year round. Oh, and it is closed on Sundays and Mondays.
