The actual Southern California locations where
the 2007 movie
"Superbad" was filmed.








The most memorable moment in "Superbad" is, no doubt, the scene in the liquor store.

Nerdy high school student 'Fogell' (Christopher Mintz-Plasse), goes into "TJ's Liquor", and
attempts to buy $100 worth of alcohol, sporting a fake ID with a single name: "McLOVIN".




In the middle of his attempt, the store is robbed, and "McLovin" is punched out by the robber.

Two cops (Bill Hader & Seth Rogen) arrive on the scene, get a bang out of the fake name,
and take the kid on a wild tour of the city in their squad car.

These liquor store robbery scenes were filmed at "7 Days Food Store",
in a small strip mall at
1700 Victory Blvd, in Glendale, CA.

         

The strip mall is located at the west/northwest corner of Victory Blvd and Western Ave, just
north of the Los Angeles Zoo and just east of the L.A. Equestrian Center (both in Griffith Park).

The parking lot of that same small strip mall is also where 'Seth' (Jonah Hill) gets hit by a car,
driven by a creepy guy named 'Francis' (
Joe Lo Truglio) who then drives Seth &
Evan' (
Michael Cera) to a dangerous house party. That scene was shot in the narrow
parking lot along Victory Blvd, in front of the liquor store, near a yellow locksmith kiosk.








But before that infamous liquor store scene, Seth, convinced that the fake
"McLovin" ID will never work, first tries to steal the booze himself from a supermarket -
but he chickens out after he imagines being murdered by the store's security guard.

Those
supermarket scenes were filmed a former Von's market, now called
"
Jon's Market", at 1717 W Glenoaks Blvd, in Glendale
, CA.

( That's at the northwest corner of Glenoaks & Western Ave,
only one mile northeast of the
liquor store. )
