Alice, the Mad Hatter, the Queen of Hearts, and the Cheshire Cat statues bring Wonderland to life on a black-and-white checkered floor beside the bar at Los Angeles’ Alice in Wonderland-themed venue, immersing guests in a fantastical storybook atmosphere reminiscent of a theme park attraction.

Behind the nondescript storefront, with the upside down sign, is an unexpected delightful trip to The Rabbit Hole. Offering bright, crafty cocktails, the trippy tinsel town bar has been a surreal sensation since 2013.

Through the door and past the hedge maze a wildly weird wonder awaits.  Looking like a cross between a Tom Petty music video mixed with the classic 1951 Walt Disney Studios animated feature, the Rabbit Hole has everything a Lewis Carroll inspired nightclub needs.

“The Rabbit Hole” sign, with its playful upside-down white lettering on a blue background beneath a clear Los Angeles sky, welcomes guests to an Alice in Wonderland-themed bar—inviting visitors into a fantastical experience reminiscent of themed attractions and immersive entertainment venues.

A whimsical hedge maze with black-and-white checkered flooring guides guests toward a vibrant Alice in Wonderland-inspired lounge, evoking the imaginative nightlife experiences of Los Angeles.

Familiar faces from Carroll’s stories have taken up the role of barstools, stationed in front a well-stocked station for cool cocktails.  Oversized chairs, checkered flooring and Dali’-style décor elements glow in the black light illumination.

The White Rabbit, dressed in a vibrant red coat and classic glasses, stands on a checkered floor clutching his pocket watch—a playful tribute to Alice in Wonderland’s iconic bar scene as reimagined for the Los Angeles nightlife experience.

Two vibrant character statues dressed in bow ties and hats stand side by side inside the Wonderland-themed bar, surrounded by quirky decor and a checkerboard floor, bringing Alice’s magical world to life for guests in this immersive Los Angeles attraction.

Step into a wonderland-inspired lounge where a majestic purple throne commands attention on a black-and-white checkered floor, surrounded by oversized chess pieces—an enchanting LA hotspot that transports theme park and entertainment lovers straight into their favorite storybook adventure.

Vibrant red corridor with whimsical, tilted gold-framed mirrors, sparkling chandelier overhead, and a playful “Women” sign above the restroom door—evoking the fantastical charm of an Alice in Wonderland-inspired lounge you’d find at Universal Studios Hollywood.

The Cheshire Cat grins mischievously as it lounges atop a black chandelier glowing with red-orange lights, casting an otherworldly glow over the whimsical Alice in Wonderland-themed bar in Los Angeles.

Crazy cocktails add to the madness.  Concoctions like the Hooka, with souvenir glass, make sharing fun. However, shooters at Rabbit Hole appear to be drive behind that infamous “Drink me” note.  Many of these sophisticated shots are served in small potion bottles.  A bright, flashy drink menu is available on their website.

Rabbit Hole’s web presence is just about as surreal and trippy as the bar itself.  Practically an immersive experience on its own and quite dizzying at times, the site offers a “tour” of the bar that is more akin to sitting in spinning tea cup while looking around.  The entire site is wonderful homage to wonderland.  While visiting, be sure to click on the “??????” direction sign for a fiendishly fun surprise.

Located at 22105 Roscoe Blvd in West Hills, CA, Rabbit hole is open daily from 5pm until 2am.
