BNG Hospitality announced the grand opening of their newest venue, Cork & Batter. Rooted in the heart of Inglewood’s entertainment and sports district, the dining destination is located across from The Hollywood Park and Casino. The three-level build is walking distance to SoFi Stadium and directly in front of the Intuit Dome that will serve as the future home of the Clippers. Only a few miles from LAX, Cork & Batter is connected to the newly built Sonder Lum Hotel.
Cork & Batter is part of a collection of venues helmed by BNG Hospitality. BNG is set to expand Cork & Batter locations to San Diego’s Seaport Village, Boston, and Simi Valley markets.
Cork & Batter is a 10,000 sq ft, three-level restaurant designed by Franklin Studios. Their design objective was to soften the space by playing into modern architecture with an inviting mid-century aesthetic, and by defining unique experiences on each of the three floors.
Cork& Batter will serve breakfast, lunch, dinner, and late-night bites. The menu will have a variety of options for meat eaters, seafood lovers, and vegetarians – sandwiches, salads, flatbreads, and entrees like Atlantic Salmon, Aztec Steak Pizza, and Vegan Primavera Pasta. The menu will also include favorites like crispy wings, nachos, and cheesesteak sliders, all the while paying homage to the roots of Los Angeles with street tacos.
The bar program will be led by Devon Espinosa, whose background includes Sawyer and The Church Key. He now joins the Cork & Batter team in creating exclusive drinks including, “Side Piece” made with vodka, Pear, Lime, Cucumber – Almond Espuma, or “Nose Bleed Section” – Mezcal, Blood Orange, Lemon, San Pelegrino, Aranciata Rosa. There will also be a dedicated margarita menu featuring strawberry, classic, mango, tamarind, watermelon, Dodger Blue, and other flavors served on a “margarita tree” and fifteen beers on tap.
The Cork & Batter is located at 3900 West Century Boulevard, Inglewood, California 90303 and is open every day, 9:00 am-10:00 pm Sunday to Thursday and 9:00 am – 12:00 am on Fridays and Saturdays. Extended hours during special events (concerts, sports games, etc.).
