About Grunions Sports Bar & Grill

Grunions Sports Bar & Grill is a South Bay local landmark. It’s been a local’s favorite spot to watch any major (and even minor) sporting event while eating the best pub food around. It all started in 1974 when Grunions Sports Bar & Grill opened its doors in Manhattan Beach, CA. The mission then, as it is today, was to provide a place where people can go and enjoy great food and drinks while cheering on their favorite sports teams, in a comfortable (and family friendly) environment where everyone is treated like a regular even if it’s their first visit. Whether you live in the area or just visiting, we have what you are looking for…guaranteed!

What a fun night of Halloween-esque! From images of ghosts, to a Monster-themed round, a horror genre filmmaker, and finally ending with Stephen King novels - we covered it all! While Team Plutonium had a near-perfect game last week, they struggled to place in the top 3 this week. Diggle Bicks came from behind to secure 3rd place, while Quiztopher Walken played a solid game to steadily keep them in 2nd place. But there was no matching Daddy who Doubled their points early on in the game, and got a good jump on the Guess Who? round. Congrats to our winners and thanks to everyone for coming out - big kudos to QW for keeping me entertained with Back to the Future II trivia while I packed up my gear. Much appreciated!

We had a fun night of SILENT Trivia despite a Dodger's loss in Game 1 of the World Series. While the Dodger's didn't walk away as winners, Team Plutonium sure did! They did so well, in fact, that they were only 1 answer away from having a completely perfect gaming - Doubling of points included! Hopefully we can see that perfect game come to fruition soon... Kudos to Quiztopher Walken for a solid night of trivia and ending in 2nd place. But the real fun of the night was determining 3rd place as multiple teams were neck and neck. Ultimately it would come down to Round 7 where Rif Rafn would win by just a couple points - congrats! I look forward to normal trivia next week, see you all there.

October typically means two things: Halloween and playoff baseball! We got our fill of both tonight as we went to silent trivia during the Dodger game, but the non-baseball folk seemed to really enjoy our spooky bonus round. The challenge was to take the letters from "Happy Halloween" and rearrange them in any way possible to make a new sentence. A tough challenge, for sure, but a few teams rose to the occasion. Both "Play a new hole", "Whale hole", "Yellow PP haha", and "Owl pee ahn yeh lap" were fine entries, but congrats to team We're Fine for their winning entry of "Naw, ho, leap!"
