L.A. Times Concierge: Help me plan a family day out that won't bore my teen boys!
"I don't have kids yet, but every time my siblings visit me from Las Vegas, I'm reminded of how difficult it is to keep teenagers entertained (and off their phones). But it sounds like your boys have some cool interests. We've put together a few mini itineraries in different neighborhoods. You won't be able to cover them all in one day, so choose your own adventure."
"The shop, with its black-and-white tile floors, murals and neon lighting, is full of comic books, graphic novels and collectibles," Times entertainment and features editor Brittany Levine Beckman tells me. "There are also pinball machines and arcade games, which may be as fun for you as they are for your kids." Next door is sister shop And Destroy, which offers coffee and inventive beverages (the November menu includes a cornbread matcha concoction and sweet potato latte), and hosts a board game day on Sundays."
Families in Pasadena with teenage boys can discover Los Angeles through neighborhood-focused mini itineraries anchored by food and interactive experiences. Glassell Park features Revenge Of, a comic shop with black-and-white tile floors, murals, neon lighting, comic books, graphic novels, collectibles, pinball machines and arcade games. Adjacent And Destroy offers inventive coffee beverages and a board game day on Sundays. Bub and Grandma's diner nearby is known for a standout tuna sandwich but draws weekend crowds. Multiple neighborhoods offer distinct combinations of art, food and hands-on entertainment suited to keeping teens engaged and off their phones.
