"This cocktail bar in Oakland was set to open last March, but pandemic-related reasons led them to push back the date. And after about a year of just takeout and outdoor dining on their parklet and back patio, they finally got to open their bright, high-ceilinged interior in May. Kick back with excellent cocktails and something from their brief (but still fantastic) menu of things like grilled cheeses, a little gem salad, and a snack plate with sourdough crostini and pickles, and enjoy it all while listening to great music in the warm, inviting space. Don’t leave without a slice of their carrot cake, which is some of the best we’ve had ever - it’s made fresh daily by owner Blake Cole’s mother." - julia chen 1, lani conway
