Rumor has it that 8210 Sunset was once Charlie Chaplin's home in the '20s and later a speakeasy. Fact has it that it was an apartment building until the '70s, which explains why Libertine has the feel of a house party. Conceived as an anti-club, it never has a list at the door or a cover charge. Rather, it's a laid-back, fun-for-all club that attracts a jeans-wearing crowd. All that's missing is a keg, but the inexpensive cocktails ($6 for drinks made with premium liquor) make up for that.

"Low Pretense on the Sunset Strip?"
By AdamMcK from Venice, June 1, 2009
Saturday night on the Strip isn't where you expect to find no cover, no attitude, reasonably priced drinks or the ability to maintain a conversatio...
