The Hangar Inn

Very delicious philly cheese steak sandwich
the potato chips are so crispy but they were very saturated with oil but crispy somehow, confusing

My favorite establishment on the weekends for breakfast. The 2 dudes who run it in the morning know how to cook and provide excellent service!
Also, I recommend the philly cheese steak omelet!

3 street tacos for 6 $. How can you go wrong!!! Delicious, fun hole in the wall!!! Love coming here for Saturday brunch/​lunch. Servers are fantastic and don’t rush you out, deff a great group of workers! Pool, tv’s, beer– not missing a thing! Super friendly atmosphere, great place to go and kick back with friends and family.

Food is ok. Enjoyed onion rings, but not my burger. Jalapeño poppers and popcorn shrimp also not good. Enjoyed the shuffle board and large beer selection!

Tip: NO hard alcohol, so if beer and wine is your fancy, you’re in the right place.
FOOD: Great grill with many options. The Chiefs are super nice too. I’d say slightly better than regular bar food, but stick to the hamburgers as they are the best things on the menu.
I’ve only tried the chicken sandwich (a little dry but can custom order to make it tasty) and the carne asada fries (a little too greasy and meh, but I’m spoiled coming from living in San Diego…). Still, Friends swear by their grilled juicy cooked to perfection burgers and so does my girl. Can’t go wrong with that.
For Sports: 11 TVs, ONE is bound to have toe team. Ask if not, they’ll be happy to change. Just make sure it’s DODGERS.
UPDATE: there’s often some friendly local tension if you got the locals putting money in the juke box so make sure you ask if you want a game on. And know that if you get your game, you may not get audio. I had some issues with getting them to play the Dodgers during the plays offs (2015). The staff is super nice, but majority rules when it comes to games or juke box.
I love the more seasoned «older» staff that works here. They are attentive and know how to keep your mug filled.
Note if ya want to shoot pool, There is only one table. But it’s not always used so jump in!!!

Friendly people and good food too!
I always order their cheese fries and buffalo chicken wings. Good prices and they’re super generous with ranch and etc. The cook is this 20-​something man with tattoos… he’s really chill and nice. Makes good food!
There’s booths/​tables to sit at if you don’t want to be at the bar.
Pool tables, shuffleboard and other games to keep you entertained.
Only drawback is the bathroom is pretty small and cramped, but it was clean when I used it. I just can’t imagine being Lebron and fitting in that thing.
Otherwise, coming back to this laid back and friendly place. Don’t expect a slick club atmosphere, but it’s a great place to relax with friends and watch tv on the numerous TV’s around the place.

Updating my review — still 5 stars! The Hangar has a nice selection and good pricing on beer, and the food is SO GOOD!!! They have the best breakfast in the South Bay! I would recommend the chorizo & egg burrito and the breakfast sandwich, but everything is really good. Lunch too! Their burgers are awesome!
They have TVs all over the place for whatever games are on, and the staff is really friendly.
The only thing is — this is a BEER BAR. They don’t serve hard alcohol or wine. But if you don’t drink beer, you should still go for the food and get a soda and watch some football.

This place came highly recommended. And we had a great end to a great night here a couple of weeks back. My grilled cheese w/​tomato, onion was very tasty, as was my date’s cheese burger. Beck’s non alcoholic hit the spot for me. Very charming and very cozy atmosphere. If it happened to be pouring rain outside this is a place I would like to be. A wood burning fireplace would fit right in. Likewise if it was stinking hot this would be an oasis, No frills… just the way I like it. Lot’s of TV’s and memorabilia to keep you looking around. The hangar is one large room, like a hangar. Friendly bartender and cook. The grill sits side by side with the bar — definitely grandfathered in that set up. If only they showed a bit of cricket or Aussie Rules I would happily plant myself here all afternoon.

This is a great dive bar in Manhattan Beach. Reasonable prices and good bar food. A throwback to the good old days before the South Bay got overpriced.

Bad Ass Ol Skool bar that has kicked up their game so they STAY in the game…
Check this place out!
If you don’t agree…
Time to look in the mirror…

With the beginning of another football season it is time to update my review of the Hanger. I live about 7 blocks away and this is where I come to watch my usually not on the local tv football game. Everything is the same as last year with the addition of some nice coupons for buy one get one free that were mailed to my house.
Staff is always super friendly particularly Evelyn who usually works Sunday. They are very good at coordinating seating for the various games that are on– very important to me. I also love the beer specials!

Such a cool little find! We ordered Chiliquiles, I got carnitas, my friend got steak, they were both bomb. The homemade chili verde sauce was a hit and everything was cooked perfectly. Great place to grab breakfast and a beer if so inclined!

Great bar for pool, shuffle board, and darts. Their pool table is nice and it’s blue!
Anibal (Edwardo) is great! And the bartenders are super sweet and all treat everyone like family :)
Also they have like 30 beers to choose from.

4 stars for what it is. So what is it? A dive bar… And a very good one. Great food, pool table, shuffle board, friendly service. Just don’t come here expecting more or you’ll be disappointed like my friends. Along with the dive bar feel, it also had the old building with no AC, ceiling fans at full speed, old furniture, old people (except the awesome waitresses). Plenty of TV’s though to watch a game. I may come back to kick it with the boys, but that’s about it.

Holy dive! Possibly the dive of all dives.
This place is definitely interesting and you have to accept what you’re about to walk into. With that in mind, I loved it. Reminded me of something classic back home, with cold beer and good food.
I had wings, mozz sticks and a western burger with all being amazing. The cook was busting his ass behind the bar. The service was consistent too.
If I’m back in Manhattan Beach, definitely going to stop by again.

The PLACE IS HARD TO SPOT as the large sign is located between a small street and a smoke shop, also there is no sign on the place storefront that is visible but otherwise use a keen eye to see it.
No worries though as soon as you arrive TWO FRIENDLY OLDER WOMEN work in this location and they treat you like a grandma’s boy, asking you questions about what you would like to eat or drink, and they seem to love the drinking crowd quite a bit. Also they joke with you throughout your conversation with them so they are a pleasure to be friendly to as well.
The COOK is a young man who is FRIENDLY and down to earth, he will take your order comfortably, not pushy at all if anything the exact opposite. The carne asada (steak) was great on a bed of fries with mozzeralla/​cheddar cheese! Yum! Also the food is cheap around $ 5 – 10. Beer was reasonable around $ 7 a pitcher for lots of well-​known tap beer, such as DOS XX, PABST, BLUE MOON etc.
FOOD: $ 5 — $ 10
A garden salad with chicken is only $ 7!
CONCLUSION, nice place to relax with friends as it has a pool tables, plenty of SPORTS ON TV, and BOOTHS for your friends to relax in, both a diner/​dive bar feel!
Thanks again to the friendly moms that work there!

I love this place. Its so low key! Every time I come here I get super excited. The loaded fries and cheese steak w/​fried egg on top is the BOMB! I love fine dining and small cafes but this is definitely a place the locals come. If you are ever in the neighborhood please stop by!!!

Been back a few times now so here is an update.
The food is delicious all of it.
I lowered my rating a star for a few issues,
The service needs work. I have been in for both lunch and dinner during the week and weekends.
The servers/​bartenders rarely greet or acknowledge you when you sit down. A quick Hi I will be right with you lets people know…
1. I am aware your are in existence
2. I will be right there.
If you sit at the tables its always questionable are the bartenders coming to our table or are we to ordering at the bar.
It seems they are mostly taking care of the locals hanging out at the way end of the bar. When they are not chatting down at the end they have their faces in their phones. Rarely are they looking around for customers who would like another drink, some food, or our check. Most of the time in order to get service I have to flag them down to get some marginal service. When you do get some service they are friendly some more than others.
I will be back, since its near my laundromat, however a little more attention to the entire room from the bartenders would be a great improvement because the food coming out of here is good.
Also what is with the plastic utensils do you guys not care about the trash you are creating? Silverware is cheap at the restaurant supply places.

For a local bar the Hanger is great, good company very cheerful atmosphere plenty of TV ’ s for all the sports you need and the burgers are awesome I have yet to have a bad one. can’t go wrong with good food and drinks. Close enough for me to walk so you’d think I’d come more often I need to work on that, because like I said before this is a great little bar, shuffle board, pool table and every now and then you can catch a live band.

Been here a couple of times and the vibe is comfortable, kick-​back, and simply relaxing. The music can be somewhat loud, so don’t come here if you need to have a serious discussion. It’s a great place to grab a cold beer and enjoy some dive bar treats with some close friends. Plenty of TVs and one pool table. Also, the kitchen is behind the bar. What a dive, but it works. I recently tried the jalapeño cheese fries and a pint of Lagunitas IPA. It all worked. The fries were tasty, cheesy along with hints of spiciness. Yummy! The IPA was cold, but for whatever reason the glass wasn’t chilled — not a bother to me. They have a decent selection of beers on tap including blue moon, lagunitas, and some others.
