About Hyperion Public - Studio City

Good people, Good food, Good Drinks, Good times!

Community Pub. By the People. For the People.

| In 2012, three dads, Akida Mashaka, John Speaks affectionately known to everyone simply as "Speaks", and Paddy Aubrey, met at their children’s preschool and had the idea to create a local neighborhood bar/restaurant concept that catered to local communities, with a fashionable yet relaxing ambiance, where you could go with your family, enjoy a refreshing weekend brunch, have parties, host events, meet up for lunch, catch the game, or simply hang out late night over drinks with friends.

The idea is to provide a friendly neighborhood pub with quality food and drinks that caters to everyone in the immediate and surrounding communities, hence the word "Public" in our name. Our motto "By the People, For the People" is indicative of our community pub concept.

We provide friendly service offering local farm-to-table seasonal contemporary American comfort cuisine with light and healthy options, paired with craft and local beers, quality wines, and specialty and classic cocktails. We offer weekend brunch, lunch, happy hour, dinner, and late night ambiance. |

Tonight was our penultimate game at the Hyperion Public here in Studio City, but what a game it was. We had returning teams and a few new faces squaring off for drinks and glory.

Teams had no trouble identifying most Winnie the Pooh characters during the picture round but couldn't identify their Heffalumps and Woozles so no double or nothings were played.

In a "Me" themed third round which shocking lacked a single question about me, we saw Saved By The Well get them all right and use a double to give themselves a nice lead over the other teams

Tonight's Guess Who round had teams try to deduce who a rich and philanthropic man who excelled at karate was. While some got it early on, it took one team until the two-point clue to figure out Bruce Wayne aka Batman was the answer we needed and deserved.

I was shook at how well teams did during tonight's drinking round which had them guess how many punny Drag Queen names from a list were actual RuPaul's Drag Race contestants. Two teams knew their queens and both got all 10 right. While the other teams sashayed away, we moved onto a drinking round tiebreaker between Slap the Bag and Ribmeat. Each team had to make up their own punny drag queen name for the prize. Slap The Bag snatched the crown in the end and was able to untuck backstage with some free drinks.

Like something unstoppable, Saved by the Well could not be stopped and won the night with 63 points! Congrats to all out teams and I hope to see you back here in two weeks on the 14th for our final trivia at Hyperion Public.
