Buying Liquor in LA

[Metro_Lounge]

CHI Metro Lounge is not the LAX lounge. I am sure each has their own regulations.

CHI Metro lounge is also not a Club Acela.

I know that. Thank you. I also can't find any rule on the Amtrak website against drinking private stock in a Metropolitan Lounge.

That's because they're not online.

The LA metropolitan Lounge is in Los Angeles Union Station. When MTA bought it a couple of years ago, they reverted the name to LAUS.

I would imagine if you are low profile about it and are not rip-roaring stool hugging drunk you can nip off a few in the Lounge

Putting your drink in an insulated stainless travel mug is the best way to drink alcohol in public.

I think that it's a reasonable response to Amtrak's problems. Of course, I do ride the Empire Builder.

I spent some time on google maps street view and found the liquor store we went to.

Won Won Mini Market

700 North Broadway

(213) 626-0588

It is a 0.4 mile walk from the front door of the station at the corner of Ord & Broadway. Just up the street from Philippe's!
