This place is always great but I have been a major fan of their chicken tenders since I saw some Joe eating them. I have never had anything else from here but I know everything is great from here. No complaints. Always clean. I hear good things about their pizza later at night. When you come here visiting your team practicing or to see the Kings, have a bite at the cove. read more

King's Cove - Sports Bars Near Me - El Segundo, California

It was either a burger or a cheese steak sandwich. Either way, I was determined to get one of 'em here. Located inside the LA Kings practice center. As another fellow Yelper mentioned, it's easy to find: get up the stairs, go through the doors and walk all the way to the end and tadah! The cheese steak won out. I added a tortilla soup as well as a small fountain drink. Turned around and watched players do their thing on the rink. I'm not at all an ice hockey fan, but it was cool watching some pros play/practice. (TBH, I had to Google the logo to find out what team was there because it certainly wasn't the Kings. Ended up being the St. Louis Blues.) Everything was made to order so there was a bit of a wait. It wasn't too bad, though, and I was back at my workplace in no time. TORTILLA SOUP: Flavor was what my taste buds were craving for. I like that they placed the cheese on the bottom before pouring the hot soup over it to give it a chance to melt. Seasoning was perfect. The only downside?! The cup was only filled halfway through. :( CHEESE STRAK SANDWICH: Boy, where do I start. Let's just say it was a let down. The bread was soft and fluffy and held all the fillings perfectly. That part was good. But the meat and veggie fillings, however we're incredibly under seasoned. They all lacked flavor. The fries were undercooked. Needless to say, I wasn't really a fan. FOOD: 2. Extra star for the tortilla soup. Sammich and fries were not good... SERVICE: 3.5. Friendly staff. Very little interaction but service with a smile. VALUE: 1. $23 pre tip for less than mediocre food. PARKING: Private lot. Didn't have any issues during the lunch rush. OVERALL: 2.25. I might come back despite the disappointment. I'm thinking maybe the cheese steak isn't their best item. Perhaps I'll try the burger next time... read more

Was a recommendation by hotel I was staying at since it was basically in the next parking lot. Was looking for some really good food to eat but didn't quite get that. The bad: I ordered honey BBQ Wings and curly fries with an apple cider beer. The wings were really hard and over cooked ( or seemed old as if they were possibly sitting under a heat lamp) the sauce was good though. Curly fries and beer were great. I spoke with the Manager about my experience with the wings and could tell he wasn't happy with my complaint since the wings are like his number 1 seller and he sales them by the 100's per our conversation. Paying $34 for 10 wings, order of curly fries and 1 beer I would at least like to enjoy and be able to eat all of the food I paid for. If I can to base my rating on my experience with the Manager alone I would have given a 1 star for my experience. He did offer to make me some replacement wings in lemon pepper ( wings were fresh and juicy and great to eat) hence my 3 star. As far as the space and atmosphere really not bad considering it's inside the Toyota center for LA Kings. Decent sports bar with plenty of seating and tv's to watch the games. You can also over look people playing ice hockey and ice skating down on the ice ring. Would I recommend this place or give it another shot? I Don't Know. Maybe if I had a better experience with the manager I probably would. Just because you sale wings by the 100's doesn't mean I didn't get a bad batch. Me having an extensive customer service background that wasn't a nice experience After typing all this I decided to go with a 2 star. You be the judge just make sure that if you have an issue with any food item don't mention it to the manager like he said sooooo many people buys his wings and can't understand why I didnt like my first batch of wings. Improvement in customer interaction or maybe that's how it is on the west coast read more

King's Cove - Honey Barbecue Wings - Sports Bars Near Me - El Segundo, California

Kings Cove is fantastic! The food, service, atmosphere is excellent!!! Our entire family loves spending time together there in between hockey practices/games. The menu is varied, and provides options for everyone. TV screens all around with sports and entertainment. This is really our favorite restaurant right now. read more

I have nothing but good things to say about King's Cove. I basically just stumbled upon this place while I was looking for somewhere to watch football. King's Cove is sandwiched between two amateur hockey rinks and on the weekends there are constant game and tournaments. This provides for a great atmosphere and plenty of scenery at the in-house bar. The wings are great, the fries are great and they have that good ranch. The beer is ice cold. Plenty of TVs to watch whatever you're into. Definitely going to make this place a regular in the rotation. read more

I'm seeing quite a few reviews here about people going out of their way to visit this place. If you're reading this before you visit, that's not really what it's for. This is the in-house cafeteria/bar at an ice skating facility. It's not a standalone pub or restaurant. So, if you're dropping by for a free skate session, or if you have a kid enrolled in one of the hockey or skating classes, it's perfectly convenient to grab a bite afterwards without having to go somewhere else. Otherwise, skip. With that being said, the food here is actually quite good, but it's a bit more expensive than you'd expect - again, it's the in-house cafeteria/bar at an ice skating facility, and it ought to be priced that way. read more

This place is OK. Don't let the 3-stars I gave fool you. It isn't bad but it isn't amazing where you drive out of your way to try. It's a bar. The only bar within the Toyota Performance Center where the LA Kings practice, USC Keck office, and hockey and ice skating lessons are at. They do not allow outside food so when you're in there, you have them or some vending machines. Staff will tell you to order from them and you are not allow to bring food. First, finding it. It's on the second floor towards the North-West corner next to the pro shop (behind the bar). It's a walk up counter to order. You pick it up there too. Then you take your order wherever you're going. The other option is go into the bar area and order a drink and food there. The order they usually have is typical American pub food. Fries, pizza, sandwiches, pasta, burger, etc. It isn't bad but also not extraordinary, so it's okay (hence the 3 star, which means ok). Condiments are available but you have to ask (pandemic precautions). The staff behind the counter are nice and friendly. read more

Delicious and v cool! Walkable from my office, it's where the Kings practice and the veggie burger is AMAZING! As are the curly fries, and you get a TON! I'm so excited about the convenience and ambiance of this spot- super chill- I could hang here solo or with friends for lunch. Perhaps after work for a drink as well! Can't wait to try the breakfast too! :-) read more

We were just in LA for the night and needed a place to get dinner so after looking a bit online decided the menu looked okay and we could get a beer here. We had no idea this was the Kings training center and when our driver dropped us off we felt a little bit like trespassers. We kind of skulked inside and then saw the bar and headed that direction. Service is not great, but very friendly. Food is only so-so as well, but it was decent enough. Felt a little weird to be served in to-go boxes, but I guess that's just what they do here. It wasn't busy and there were some hockey players practicing, so I'm assuming the boxes are because people get food and go all around with it, so it makes sense. I can imagine that it's pretty cool to come have a beer and watch practice. They also have some cool sports stuff and facts all around, which was interesting. Can't say I see this as just a neighborhood bar, but def if you're into the Kings it would be cool. read more

I'm actually impressed with the spot. They had the tent set up outside the of the venue. I can only imagine how things would be if things were inside but because of coviid they needed to do what they needed to do to attract business. The staff was pretty good or attentive real clear on the menus no issues there they had a couple of TVs outside so about 15 to 20 people sitting at tables can enjoy the games I had the buffalo tenders and it were very good very plentiful portions were a lot I definitely would go again to hang out at the king's cove to eat drink watch a game watch some ice hockey and enjoy the festivities Grade: B read more

We do not have a professional ice hockey team in Hawaii, but we do have an ice skating rink. That's why this bar inside of the Toyota Sports Center - where the LA Kings practice - is very intriguing. .. I had just arrived at LAX. Yuri and I were looking for a late night place for a snack. King's Cove stays open until 1am and it's one of my bookmarked places, so... let's go! I believe that I learned about this venue from one of Rob A.'s check ins. (I do look once in a while at where my friends are going.) Rob had a great review that encouraged me to check this place out. However, I wouldn't go here alone since this is really a guy's type of place... I'm so lucky that Yuri has a sense of adventure and trusts me! It doesn't seem like there would be any place to eat between two ice skating rinks - yes, the Toyota Sports Center is rather large. Just walk through, past the locker room, Customer Service office, and trophy case. .. after you park in the free and convenient parking lot right in front! When you find the little bar surrounded by a short divider, look for the entrance on the right and have a seat. Service by Bridget is friendly and helpful! Yuri and I sat at the bar instead of the tables so we could watch the many televisions with sports and music videos! The Late Night menu seems reasonable and adequate! We got the Combination Platter for $7. The French Fries and Nachos (colorful, crisp tortilla chips topped with melted cheese) were not bad. The Buffalo Bites (boneless chicken nuggets instead of chicken wings) were too spicy for me - even with the ranch dressing. Beers came out to $5 each because we got $1 off since it was Happy Hour. I liked the fruity hard Cidre! I'd come back again! It was about 15 minutes away from the airport, so, if you pick me up, I'll take you to King's Cove - if you want to go! They even start breakfast starting at 8am here! It looks like fun! Maybe we'll get to watch the Kings practice or see people taking skating lessons! read more

Why is it called King's Cove? Well it's not because some royal windbag from ancient times decided to open a short order greasy grub hobbit shire in the middle of the Toyota Sports Center. No, this fine little establishment is tucked away high above the ice rinks where the Los Angeles Kings practice. The food's not bad and they serve breakfast. Get a bite to eat while watching people skate and/or practice and if you're lucky, the Kings might be down there going at it. The food is very similar to what you might find in your favorite bowling alley snack bar. Hey, there are bowling alleys that serve some tasty morsels. Plenty of parking and to find the place you have to actually enter the Sports Center. Walk on in and you're all set. read more

First time eating here. Took me a little bit of time to find it as it is located inside of ice hockey recreational facility., The Nachos were excellent, and I would order again and again. The buffalo bites, on the other had, were nothing special. I suspect I can pick up a pack from the frozen section at Costco and get about the same quality. The atmosphere is cool. I can watch a dozen or more screens showing games, or watch any of the games going live in the arenas. There was also figure skating while I was there. I'd probably go back again next time I travel to LA. read more

If you are a hockey parent like yours truly, you are grateful that there is a place like Kings Cove where you spend a good amount of time. My kids have played other sports such as soccer, baseball, roller hockey...all are good and find but you know what they all lack? A full bar and bar food that is served warm and help when you're in the middle of that long day of "getting it all done" and you just need a freaking turkey burger already or a glass of wine, or a pitcher of beer or.... :) The food is yummy. Try the curly fries with ranch or the buffalo bites. Or the pizza. The only thing I didn't love is the kale salad. If you are a Kings fan, they are often practicing here, they will have morning skate when they are here for home games. Sometimes you will also see their visiting team, so if you are anything but a Kings fan (which I can't even fathom!) then there you go. Enjoy! read more

It's a bar/restaurant you go to because it's the only choice you have if you're at the Toyota Sports Center. The food and drinks are mediocre. As a parent who is here every weekend for my child's ice skating, I'm stuck and so the location is convenient. If there were other restaurants or if this restaurant was outside, I would never patronize it for its food and drinks. Nonetheless, I'm here for hours every weekend so I usually grab a bite for my child and myself. Overall the food stands between 2-3 stars because it's take it or leave it quality. They usually have one really nice guy taking the orders and bar tending, he clearly busts his butt off. Today I had the misfortune of placing an order with some other guy who I had never seen before. He was the most disrespectful, arrogant person you can come across. On top of it he was hostile and literally aggressive. From cutting me off as I placed an order for my child to literally rolling his eyes and walking off in the middle of an order. It turns out, he is the son of the owners of the Kings Cove, it figures. If their son is any indication of the type of family owned facility this is, it's really unfortunate they got a spot at the Toyota center because, as I read in an article, their connection with management. There really is no need to be so rude to a regular or anyone, especially when you own it! They are lucky they are the only available restaurant with inherited clients(mostly parents stuck there) who have no other readily available choices. I can't visualize anyone coming in specifically for their food or the service by their spoiled kid who owns and runs it. To the owners of the Kings Cove, you said you have to give good service, does your kid know that too? Not worth ever stopping in if you're not stuck there for hours. read more

Food is actually pretty good, my favorite being the Santa Fe chicken sandwich. Ambiance is great for families and the service from most of the employees is great. read more

This is a cool place to eat drink and watch hockey games live!! It was so much fun. Nice staff. Food is delicious I can't wait to go back.

This is a hidden gem that I knew nothing about. I we came here because we saw a picture of the nachos, and we were not disappointed. I have been to the Toyota Sports Center on two different occasions and never stopped to eat here. Unfortunately, I wish I would have tried this place a long time ago. We also had the chicken tenders and curly fries, which were very good in my opinion! Overall, I really enjoyed the atmosphere and it is a great place to watch the games that are playing that day. I plan on coming back for happy hour and their weekly specials that I saw on the menu. The bartender that helped us was extremely sweet as well! I will be telling my friends about our new happy hour spot! read more

Situated within the Toyota Sports Center this little Cafe serves up some really good food. Today we had a BLT, Pancakes, Oatmeal and Pumpkin Spice Lattes. Food was surprisingly on point, Latte's meh. How can you go wrong eating above the Kings Rink? Bustling with activity from the little gremlins playing Hockey, the place still manages to allow a peaceful meal. Parking can be a bit hectic, and ADA access seems to be available. All said, a very unique and enjoyable place to get a good meal. read more

King's Cove - Pancakes and Ice!!! - Sports Bars Near Me - El Segundo, California

I sometimes come here at lunch to skate and to catch a quick bite to eat. This little place is situated in the center of the Toyota Sports Center. If your lucky the Los Angeles Kings might be running practice on the NHL ice while you are there. Bridget is a sweetheart. She keeps the drinks flowing and gets the food out in a timely fashion. The veggie burger and nachos are my favorites here. Last night they ran out of the nachos and pretzels. I was really hungry after playing hockey so I had to settle with salsa and tortilla chips. The chips were nice and warm. They do have Stella Artois on tap so Bridget kept the pitchers coming. They also have a wine selection. It would be nice if they had some hard liquors (tequilas, whiskeys, bourbons and rums.) ------------------------------------------- Came here for dinner and some drinks. The buffalo chicken bites are really good. Spicy, messy and tasty. Plus a good protein to match with my Stella. Again Bridget and her team rock! Was able to watch my team impressively win too. read more

This is a great place to visit if you want to check out some hockey,. you might even get to see some King players. I have been here a few times and enjoyed a drink and them walked around. The prices are ok considering where you are. the place is clean and fun to stop in. The breakfasts are the best here. I have seen pizzas come out to. I did see a few salads go out. The service was fast and everything was cooked good. I had an egg sandwich and it was good! I got a coke and walked around after. I would recommend this place if your in the area to visit and take a look around... read more

Very good food & value! The owner & staff are terrific! Many beers on tap, lots of TV's for sports viewing, and you may even catch the L.A. Kings hockey team training!

Just decent bar food. Came during Sunday football. Apparently, there's no waiter or waitress? We had to physically leave our table to walk to the bar to place our order. Staff was friendly though. It can get a little annoying when people come in & out of the bar. Slam the door, which makes the entire bar area shake! Sheesh ! read more

Always something to see here. Decent food and a late night happy hour every night after 9. I went here when it was nearly empty. It felt a little isolated, but the bartender was down for good conversation and a little while into it, a huge late night game of "broom ball" erupted on the ice. I didn't even know that was a thing. This place delivers but definitely isn't a place to take a date who likes people more than hockey. read more

I wanna give this place 3 stars because I came here for lunch and they were closed but that's my fault k suppose. It's a decent eatery at a skate rink but dont expect fine dining or anything. Nonetheless my coworkers and I have been here for the happy hour once or twice. read more

Good place. Quality food for a sports bar in a hockey arena. Friendly bartender. Was staying at hotel next door so very convenient

Food is usually pretty good except on Sunday's.the cook is horrible. Today we ordered a bagel and an egg burrito. The eggs were burnt, the bagel was stale hard as a rock. I asked for a fresh bagel unheated. The cooked put the stale bagel in the microwave and reheated and attempted to serve to me again. Finally got another bagel and that one was stale also. Creamer for the coffee curdled in my coffee. Avoid on Sunday if u want to get a quality meal. read more

Chill atmosphere, good food, good prices, friendly staff, clean, sports on tv, hockey, hockey, hockey. Really what more can you ask for? It does get kinda cold because of the ice rinks; so dress warm. Came on a Sunday night and it wasn't too crowded. I'll def be back! read more

Our son plays for the La Jr Kings and trains at TSC almost every day Thank you King's Cove for being there for us every day Great food, great service awesome people. Try their home made soup, healthy salads, amazing pizzas, delicious fries ... Basically everything on the menu is great, we have eaten it all. It all depends on your mood because for a small quaint restaurant, the selection is huge. Not to forget their amazing coffee named New Frontier coffee . My husband's favorite. Try it and you will not be disappointed There is also a sports bar with endless amount of TVs. I do not drink while at the rink but lots of people come to this sports bar to watch games on TV or a life game on the ice. I can see that they are having a great time. TSC is a great place, come and check it out Christine C. read more

Odd little place that is actually located inside the Toyota Sports Center, which is the Los Angeles Kings Practice facility. Decent size menu, although they could really push it up a bit and do fantastic business. They have a nice selection of beers on tap, but it makes me wonder why they don't team up with El Segundo Brewery and offer a tasting night? Could really increase sales. Food was fairly decent, they make a nice chicken wing platter at decent price. My dinner companion had the burger, but suggested it needed a few improvements to make it great. But it's a fun place to hang out, you can watch the Kings practice, or kids teams play, or even watch the public skate. Also, on a hot day, it's a great place to cool off!! read more

Great beers on tap...friendly staff...the food is terrible. I am sure this place is terrific for parents with kids skating here, but not being a parent and just looking for a place to watch a game and have lunch and a beer...next time I'll just have the beers! read more

This is a sports bar within an athletic complex, so it's hard to compare to other sports bars. The food was decent but not great. They didn't have the SEC network, but they are more known for hockey, so it makes sense. This place is most likely heaven for parents. They can watch their kids play hockey while having a beer. Will take note for when I have kids! read more
