Lala is a vinyl listening bar down a staircase beneath the restaurant June on Keefer Street, and 'vinyl listening bar' is carrying a lot of meaning in that sentence. It has been called one of the most significant new listening rooms in Canada, which becomes obvious the moment you see the curves, warm golden glow and retro speakers arranged around the room. Rotating DJs spin records seven nights a week, and the hi-fi is tuned to fill the space without drowning out your conversation, which is the small and brilliant detail that separates an actual listening bar from one that is just loud. The cocktails are genuinely good. A few of June's dishes make the trip downstairs. On weekends it stays open until 2am. Order a nightcap, let someone else pick the music, and sink into the booth.
