There is no guilty pleasure more enjoyable than reality TV. It gives us a chance to escape our lives for 30 - 45 minutes and be thankful that we aren’t being filmed 24/7. Most of the time I’m trying to figure out what parts of reality TV are scripted, or what drama has been fabricated, but my favorite thing to do is look up the restaurants and venues that these reality tv shows use for their nights out and dramatic meetups!
After a good Vanderpump Rules binge - a show that has had their fair share of drama between restaurant co-workers - I decided that I’ve been visiting LA all wrong and need to hang out where the cast hangs out (in hopes to maybe run into one of them!) And while I know that they do love to spend time in their Vanderpump locations, like Sur and Pump - the cast also ventures out to have their drama extended to other LA establishments.
So while drinks are being thrown in faces, and you’ve ever wondered if the drinks are even good - here are 10 venues on EventUp that the Vanderpump cast has visited over the seasons, and that you should check out!
