What happened after Mystery Diners?
55 Degree Wine Shop and Link-n-Hops Restaurant, a combined wine shop and restaurant-bar in the Atwater Village area of Los Angeles, appeared on Mystery Diners season 8, episode 1, "Employee Discount," which aired 2014-10-13. Mystery Diners is a series in which an owner concerned about a service or staff problem allows hidden cameras and undercover diners into the business, then reviews the footage with the host for a coaching session on fixes. According to Wikipedia's article on the series, citing its sources, the investigations are arranged in advance and scripted for television rather than being spontaneous.
The business's current site, linknhops.com, describes the venue at the same address, 3111 Glendale Blvd in Atwater Village, as "Sports Bar In Los Angeles | Link N Hops," with posted hours for all seven days and an online-ordering link, but the site makes no reference to the wine-shop half of the original combined name. In September 2026 the site listed current hours and food and beer menus under the Link N Hops name alone. This research did not find a dated source specifying when or whether the wine-shop concept formally ended.
