Get to The Point!

Ease your stay-at-home boredom and hunger with great things happening at The Point in El Segundo.

At this time of necessary isolation and business closings, many of us are missing our favorite retail and dining establishments. We are taking care of ourselves and our community by staying at home, but frankly it’s getting a little … old!

And that’s where The Point in El Segundo steps in. This local shopping and dining destination has been a favorite locale for South Bay families since opening in 2015 at the corner of Rosecrans Avenue and Sepulveda Boulevard. While they look forward to welcoming customers back for a unique shopping, dining and meeting experience when they can safely do so, some of the stores and restaurants are making options available now—amidst the statewide stay-at-home order that took effect March 19.

While restaurants can’t currently serve customers in their dining areas, several eateries at The Point are offering menu items and extras for pickup or delivery. When you place your order, you’re helping a local business stay open and continue to pay their team members. But picking up a delicious meal to take home to the family also means one less dinner dilemma for you in the kitchen! Check out what these restaurants have to offer, and be sure to call them for updated hours of business.

The health and wellness of the community and of team members is a top priority for The Point. In addition to diligently monitor- ing updates surrounding COVID-19 and strictly adhering to recommended guide- lines from federal, state and local authorities, the shopping center’s individual stores are doing their part to help their neighbors during this pandemic.

For instance, the Kendra Scott team is helping support those on the front lines by sewing masks to distribute to local hospitals and clinics. And for every burger purchased, Hopdoddy Burger Bar donates one burger to health care professionals who are working diligently to care for all of us. Not in the mood for a burger yourself? They also have a button on their website where you can donate a burger to show your support.
