Manhattan Beach, Los Angeles · bar
A salty, surfside dive that’s been anchored to the Manhattan Beach Pier since 1922. And somehow perfected the art of being both familiar and endlessly fun. Locals and surfers sidle in for cheap beers, buffalo wings, and killer views of the sunset over the pier, all courtesy of bartenders who know your name (and probably your order). Bonus: the trucker hats behind the bar are not just souvenirs. They’re a local cult classic, collectible, and a legit way to prove you’ve earned your stripes in this beach town.
