What happened after Bar Rescue?
Pineapple Hill Grill in Tustin, California -- operating under the fuller name Pineapple Hill Saloon & Grill -- was featured on Bar Rescue (Paramount Network) in the Season 7 episode "Fear and Molding on Pineapple Hill," which aired June 14, 2020. The bar was located at 654 E. First Street, Suite 3418, in Old Town Tustin; Google's own place record for the business did not return a street address, so this entry uses the address confirmed through the bar's Yelp and directory listings instead.
The specific findings and on-air changes from the Bar Rescue visit were not available in the sourced material reviewed for this entry. What is documented is that the business later changed its name. A Facebook business page tied to the same First Street address operates under the name Renz Social House, indicating the bar was rebranded at some point after its television appearance; no dated announcement of the rename itself was found in the sources reviewed.
More recently, a Yelp listing still carrying the original name, Pineapple Hill Saloon & Grill, at 654 E. First Street, was updated in June 2026 and marks the business permanently closed. A public Facebook group post separately asked whether the location had closed, reflecting some customer uncertainty about its status; that post is not independently dated in the material reviewed and is treated here only as a secondary, weak signal alongside the Yelp closure marker.
No news coverage, government record, or ownership statement describing the closure's cause or exact date was found. It is not established from available sources whether Renz Social House and Pineapple Hill Saloon & Grill operated as the same entity through to the June 2026 closure, or whether a further change occurred in between. Old Town Tustin's First Street corridor includes a mix of restaurants and nightlife venues near the city's historic core, and the address that once housed the Bar Rescue location does not currently show an active listing under either name in the sources checked.
