As someone who works in the restaurant industry, this is hands-down my favorite place to unwind! Michael here is everything you want in a night out—charming, flirtatious, and full of personality. On top of being ridiculously handsome, he’s also incredibly talented at what he does, pouring drinks with style and making everyone feel like the center of attention. His tattoos? Absolute bonus—they add to his irresistible vibe. This place wouldn’t be the same without him. If you’re looking for a spot with great drinks and even better company, this is the place to be.

Come for the vibes and maybe try the photobooth, stay for Michael, the coolest and sweetest goth baddie to ever slang dranks. He’s so attentive and friendly, you won’t even notice that it’s last call and Megadeth is blasting from the speakers. Absolutely brings the vibes every time.

Michael is the only reason I visit this bar. He’s the best bartender in Oakland imo and this place is lucky to have him. Do yourself a favor and go see his professional, undeniable charm in action. Great backyard too!

I really want to like this place, but every time I go there, they make me feel like they're doing me a favor by letting me spend my "cash only" on their products. It's hard to recommend for an average bar-goer unless you already have a stool with your name on it or like the feeling of a cliche record skipping and grizzly bikers turning to look at you scene when you arrive at a highway roadhouse.

My best friend and I are visiting Oakland from Portland and we were recommended to check this bar out from a mutual friend who used to live here. As a bartender who frequents dives i immediately felt at home the second I walked in. Drinks were very reasonably priced, solid amount of seats at the bar, huge back patio and a pool table. Michael the bartender who took care of us was a sweetheart and both nights we stopped in had a banging playlist. I will definitely stop back in anytime I’m rolling thru Oakland.
