If you need a late night meal, Cafe 101 is a cool diner and open until 3am. Just a classic diner.
Also the MiniBar is in the same building (as part of a hotel).

If you want a good cocktail couple blocks away at a unique bar, this spot can be great. Cozy. Late 30's look.

It's a bit hidden, but a 10-15 minute walk away and offers a very cool lounge atmosphere. And good cocktails. One of my favorites in the city.

A lively bar, although not for everyone (can get bro-y). But really close and can be fun. Has tv's to watch a game also.
Can get a quick rotisserie chicken.

Neighborhoods
Downtown LA has changed drastically over the past 10 years and has become a vibrant place to visit. Tons of bars and restaurants to explore.
While you may encounter quite a few homeless people on the streets, I've never experienced it to be an issue, and most areas have a lot of foot traffic these days and is safe. Otherwise use your best judgement, and it's immediately obvious when you find yourself in the wrong area and need to turn back.
It's also very easy to get with the metro from the Hollywood / Western station.
If you'd like to explore more of the history as well, I fully recommend the walking tours offered by the LA Conservancy. They can be surprisingly interesting. https://www.laconservancy.org/tours

It's relatively close, but a fun area to check out. Tons of small bars and shops along Sunset Boulevard. A bit East from Hollywood.
