Twelve Mile Limit

A Mid-City neighborhood cocktail bar — excellent drinks at neighborhood prices, with a local crowd and industry regulars late at night. Order whatever sounds interesting; the craft cocktails punch above the prices. Come in the evening when the local crowd shows up, later for the industry favorites. The name nods to the distance from shore where Prohibition's laws didn't apply, a fitting bit of cocktail history. It is a great neighborhood spot — serious drinks without the serious markup, the sort of unpretentious local that the city's bartenders themselves treat as a home base.
