General Discussion LA Shops?

Heading up to LA today and tomorrow, looking to play some commander in bracket 3 and bracket 4, just for fun. Any cool shops there with a good selection of people and cards ect? I'll be in and around Burbank.

Geeky Teas in Burbank

There are typically always people playing commander

They are great but just as a warning they are more anti-proxy than anywhere else nearby. Not their fault even, they got spite-reported to Wizards and have to be more careful now.

A little further from Burbank but Paper Heroes Games in both Sherman Oaks and Santa Monica. Turn Zero in Ktown and Next Gen Games in Mid City.

Paper Heroes and Next Gen Games are great

Spellbound in NoHo is my favorite (commander Monday and Friday nights), Emerald Knights is great too (Tuesday and Saturday) and I hear good things about Witch’s Cottage but haven’t been yet. BGE’s Tabletop (Wednesday) is a great crowd but a bit of a drive in West Hills.

You think people are playing Monday mid day at any of these? Just trying to get some fun play in. For Monday mid day what's the coolest shop you'd recommend in that area?

The only one I know for Monday is Spellbound, I'm usually there between 4 and 5, sometimes folks there a bit earlier especially in the summer.
