JP’s Bar & Grill could be coming to 10th and Wilshire

By Kerry Slater

A popular Santa Monica sports bar that shuttered during the pandemic may soon be relaunching. 

As reported by Toddrickallen, JP’s Sports Bar & Grill may be resurrected at 925 Wilshire Boulevard Suite C, just a block from its longtime former spot at the corner of Wilshire and 11th. 

A conditional use notice posted on the window of the location – formerly a tile store – doesn’t provide a business name, but Toddrickallen writes that it lists the proposed project as, an “ABC license 47 bar and restaurant for the onsite service and consumption of food and alcohol”. The applicant is listed as Bonus Eventus LLC. Toddrickallen reported that a little digging showed that Bonus Eventus is the parent company of JP’s Bar and Grill. 

We have reached out to the applicant for further information and this article will be updated once more details become available.
