About The Slip Bar & Eatery

     At The Slip, we don't think food at a bar has to taste like bar food. In addition to delicious wings, pizza, burgers, and fries, we offer a Blue Zones certified menu with plenty of healthy and vegetarian choices.

 

        Watch the sun set over Redondo’s King Harbor and choose from over 60 hand-selected beers, plus wine and cocktails. The Slip is family-friendly and we have eight TVs so you can watch your favorite teams. We host an Open Mic every Wednesday and live music on the weekends.

 

        We’re located on the International Boardwalk of the Redondo Beach Pier right below the bike path, making us a perfect stop during a bike ride. Parking is also available in the lot at the apex of Harbor Drive and Pacific.

Tuesday trivia was one of the most poppin' nights I've seen thus far at The Slip! The Lakers and World Series were both on the TVs but I think the game we played was far more exciting.

The questions were GREAT this week and Round 5's "Silicon Valley" connection had almost everyone stumped! We had many groans from the peanut gallery when it was revealed to be Android OS names - everyone must have iPhones! Viva la Apple!

Many teams started out strong with successful doubles in rounds 1 and 2, but Round 3 was HARD and only one team managed to get all 6 sauces.

Speaking of sauces, BEHOLD! All of the various spellings of "Worcestershire" I received:

  • Worshchester
  • Worchestershire
  • Worsteshire
  • Worcestershire
  • Whorchester
  • Worchestershershire
  • Worcestshire

Only one team managed to spell it correctly, for the record - and that was BLT - shout out to you!

Apparently the teams needed to brush up on their Wimbledon & Prime Minister knowledge because Round 7 was a doozy! The tennis player names eluded nearly everyone, so the scores stayed neck and neck and we ended up having a tiebreaker for third place.

Mr. Poopybutthole and Bart Fell Down a Well both ended the evening with 57 points and they had to duel for third place. We set up an arena and gave both of them swords and shields to fight for their team's honor. In the end, Bart Fell Down a Well prevailed and snagged third.

Second place went to We Like to Come From Behind and, with only a two-point lead, Peter's Dinklage won the first place prize!

See you all next week fore more quizzin' and laughs.
