Came to Blue Rabbit Bar based on a friend's recommendation. My initial impression was that it's a more intimate bar, limited seating, and also limited parking lot (heads-up!). We had 12 people in our party, and this place is definitely more suitable for parties of 1-4. The bartender came up to our tables to take our orders, which was nice! We had some small bites, and I had the Love & Other Demons cocktail. I'll be honest, I didn't enjoy the drink. It has carrot shrub, and that's all I was able to taste. Besides that, everyone else seemed to enjoy their drinks! I would be open to giving them another try when im in the area again! read more

Blue Rabbit Bar - Mexican Near Me - San Pablo, California

New bar in San Pablo! Now, I don't really drink, but my friend was in town and I haven't seen her in 3 years so we all decided to meet up here! The food menu and pictures on Yelp look really good! We only stayed for a bit, so we just got one drink and the queso fundido, which was pretty good! Because it was still light outside even though it was like 8pm already, the inside wasn't as dim as the photos on Yelp. Small seating, so we decided to go to another bar after so we could all sit together with our group. Small parking lot; there's street parking. I would probably come back to try the food menu and order take out lol. Service was good; they came to our table to take our drink orders. read more

My husband and I recently moved to the area and were looking for cool spots to get a drink and some food! Yelp recommended this place so we gave it a try and I'm so glad we did! The service was amazing. The bar tender made sure we were okay and recommended us drinks. The drinks were delicious! I got a beef empanada that was tasty and a good size. The place is very chill and low key. They play good music. Definitely coming back! read more

I was simply looking for a spot to grab a quick drink, and I'm so glad I stumbled upon this hidden gem. Cozy, intimate, and with an impressive selection of tequilas, it instantly felt like the kind of place you want to linger. The bartender, Nick, was not only kind but incredibly knowledgeable--he gave us thoughtful recommendations for both drinks and food that hit the mark perfectly. On top of that, he made the experience even better with a genuinely pleasant conversation. If you ever find yourself in the area--whether you happen to drive by or are scrolling through reviews like this one--do yourself a favor and stop in. You'll leave thrilled with the experience, just like I did. read more

I kept seeing this place pop up as a local bar and I'm glad I stopped by. Shibuh our bartender made sure we had a great time and crafted our drinks to perfection! One of the best espresso martinis I've had and he made me a wonderful surprise drink with me just telling him what I like and don't like!!! The ambiance was perfect for a Saturday date night and overall a really great bar for the San Pablo and Richmond area. Thank you Shibuh for showing us a great time. read more

I discovered this bar pretty recently and love it! Great vibes, spacious spot, and the food and drink options are great. They have an all day happy hour menu I believe on Sundays. Price points are great and the tostada is MASSIVE. Bartender was super nice and helpful in recommending dishes. Great experience here! Definitely going back! read more

Came here with my girls a couple of nights back and really enjoyed the intimate vibes, dark yet cool lights, and chill space the bar has. The last time I was here was when the location was a Thai restaurant I used to go to often; they completely changed the entire look of the place and really put a brand to it as a bar. Service was pretty solid -- the employee was attentive and checked up on us whenever he could. We ordered drinks and my friends ordered food for all of us to share: - Tiki Mamacita (5/5): I got this cocktail and loved the fruity tartness of it. It wasn't too strong but it definitely got the job done. - Espresso-tini (3.5/5): My friend got this drink and I was able to try it. It was tasty but the alcohol was overpowering the taste of espresso for me. - Bone Marrow (3/5): Bone marrow is usually a heavy hitter for me, but the ones we were served were too salty (and I'd recommend having some small pieces of bread with it). - Queso Fundido (4/5): I enjoyed this a lot! The chips along with the cheesy dip made a good complement to us drinking. - Aguachile (3.5/5): Yummy and paired well with some chips! - Cucumber Salad (3/5): It was good, but would have been a lot better if the cucumber wasn't the bitter kind. Overall pretty cool spot with affordable eats and tasty drinks. I'm looking forward to coming back again and trying out some of the other cocktails! read more

Blue Rabbit Bar - Mexican Near Me - San Pablo, California

We enjoyed our time at this bar, trying several different drinks and bites to eat. The atmosphere was simple and inviting with dining tables and bar seating available (including multiple outlets and hooks for purses), plenty of tequila on the shelves, blue lighting of course, and quite a few hidden bunnies to be found. Service was friendly and attentive, and the waits for our food and drinks were reasonable, considering there were only a few people inside on a Monday evening. We had the rabbit margarita, ultima palabra, sol sangra, beef empanada, native tostada with asada, and street taco with fried cauliflower. All of these items were delicious. The drinks were made well and had a good amount of alcohol. My fave was the rabbit margarita. The empanada filling was made up of tasty shredded beef and melted cheese, no other ingredients besides garnish on top and the mild sauce that came on the side. The crunchy fry bread of the native tostada was stacked with toppings, full of flavor, even if a bit salty. The street taco was good too, we finished every last bite. We asked for hot sauce, and the staff explained that they had a salsa which turned out to be a pickled chili pepper and onion mix, it was quite good. read more

I came here for a birthday celebration and I have to say that the drinks were very very good. It's a nice cool spot and when I came in here, I was looking forward to having a couple of drinks and a meal. However, the food wasn't so great. First, we got the Chicharrones with guacamole. The guacamole tasted good, but there wasn't enough. It came in a cute little Belgium fry contraption and if it had a dip that was one thing, however, this guacamole was a bit chunky and I had to use a spoon to put it onto my out my chicharrón. Also, the guy next to us was eating this and it smelled really bad. So I don't know how fresh they were but something was wrong with that. Next, I ordered the queso fundido. Unfortunately, it was a bean dip with chips. Have they told me that I would not have been as disappointed as I was. But I was very disappointed. So I didn't have a lot of food so I never ordered my second drink. But my drink was good And I really liked it. My husband ordered the Michelada and he liked that as well. But our plan was to go next-door and get some pupusa, however, they were closing and we didn't get to eat. I will go there again for a drink. I will not get any food from them because it just wasn't good.. The ambience is cool and they have a really good vibe. I love the smooth, cool lighting inside. I really loved the tables where we sat. And it is definitely a neighborhood place. The people who came in stayed for a while and enjoyed themselves. But I know that if I go there for a drink That I will have to eat something somewhere else before I come in. I understand that this guy has some other food places and they are pretty well and I'm confident that they'll have their food game. But for now there's nothing in there I wanna eat. I do want to leave with one piece of advice and that is that if you're gonna say that you have a queso fundido it actually needs to have queso in it and if it doesn't, you need to tell people. Because we have expectations and when they aren't met, that is very disappointing! read more

Very cool little place in an unassuming mini mall. They have a beautiful shelf of bottles, and a solid menu of both drinks and food. Service was friendly and low key. I got the Oaxacan Old Fashioned, a variation on the traditional drink with mezcal instead of bourbon and mole bitters instead of the usual, and it was very good and a little spicy in a nicely pleasant way. To go with it, I ordered the habanero crème brûlée, which was well made and a generous serving (5-inch dish, about half an inch thick). You could easily split this across 2-4 people, because it can be spicy af (any individual nibble might just take you down). Really a fun dessert. I don't want to say something like "this is the coolest bar in San Pablo", because that ain't saying much. It's just a straight up cool bar. read more

Blue Rabbit Bar - Habanero crème brûlée, Oaxacan Old Fashioned - Mexican Near Me - San Pablo, California

Amazing new addition to Richmond/San Pablo!! Very cool ambiance and friendly service as soon as you open that red door. The food and drinks did not disappoint! Every cocktail we tried was so delicious and you could taste the alcohol, not too strong. Loved the Esmeralda (sweet), the Sol Sangra (flavorful with a twist), and Tiki Mamacita (a fun sweet margarita). Basically any drink we ordered made us happier and happier lol. Food was delicious and great portions! Enjoyed the nachos (perfectly loaded), beef empanadas with a yummy spicy sauce, queso fundido, and crème brûlée with a twist (spicy AF), and churros (warm and sweet with caramel and chocolate sauce) for dessert. Life is good at Blue Rabbit Bar! Oh there's also outside barstool seating ready for overflow or if you a cool outdoor experience while you vibe. Bathroom is clean and spacious in the back of the bar. Parking is limited, it's right in the middle of the plaza so come early or expect to look for street parking. read more

First time I've ever wanted to gate keep because boy is this a hidden gem! This is the second time I've been influenced to come out to Richmond/San Pablo for a new spot, but unlike another spot this place met and exceeded expectations. So glad there's a lounge with good eats in the area. Spot is in an unassuming plaza with a small parking lot, but in the middle of the week twas no issue. Came to catch up with an old friend and we both left pleasantly surprised, starting with seating. They have a window bar with stools literally outside which made me think this could be a dog friendly out there but not certain. Anyway we chose to eat inside and ordered food and drinks. Everything was delicious ... the queso fundido, the tomatillo soup, the slushies... I'd reorder all of them but truth be told I probably won't just to taste what else is good. Will definitely be back and can't wait! read more

I have been wanting to try this place since it opened. My husband and I finally made it in on a Saturday night. It was pretty full and continued to fill up while we were there. Definitely date night vibes. It look a while to get served since there was only one server. The server was nice and answered the questions we had and gave us some suggestions. The drinks are very good they do not skimp on the alcohol. The mezcal mango slushy shot was my favorite. The tiki mamacita was good too My husband enjoyed the Oaxacan old fashioned. We tried the chicken slider, queso fundido, street taco we enjoyed all of them but the portions are small, snacks not a meal unless you are ordering quite a few things. The llorona salsa is extra hot my husband loved it. Nice place to hang out we will definitely be back. That mezcal mango slushy is definitely calling me to go back. read more

Absolutely stoked there's a new bar in San Pablo! This spot has delicious drinks and food. I love their frozen cocktails, which are mango mezcal or tequila passionfruit. Delicious even in the winter! I also had some good bites here, the spicy salsa and chips and fundido hit the spot. This place is also a great date night spot with low lighting and chill vibes, or a good place to grab a quick drink while you wait for your laundry (there's a laundromat in the same complex.) please check it out! read more

I decided to venture out of my normal neighborhoods to check out this new bar. It's in this small corner area of shops, just look for the rabbit + leaves light. It's actually a blend of outdoor indoor because the whole front wall opens to the outside. We missed the happy hour but got the macario and aji Fuego cocktails which were pretty good. Churros came out warm and I actually liked the caramel sauce better than the chocolate sauce. Chips and salsa gives you 4 options of salsa to choose from. It's worth a visit if you're close by. read more

First and foremost this is a vibe of a place to go to if you live in the area. Limitations in parking and suspect people walking around in the parking lot. My wife and I went at about 8pm on 2/21/2025. To start I will say drinks: 9/10 ambiance: 9/10 EVERYTHING ELSE GOES DOWN HILL. Please look at the photos and video of my $17 Bone Marrow that I literally ate with two chips. It had no marrow whatsoever. But I'm not really one to complain about it rather bring it to attention to our waitress. She asked did I want to do a bone shooter (a tequila shot with the bone) and I told her I can't because this bone doesn't go all the way through and barely had anything in it. Her response: "Dang you got a bad bone"! And walked off. After this: Our waitress had her own date apparently. Her significant other sat next to us, and in front of everyone opened a bag with weed and gummies and asked her if she wanted one....she said yes! He ordered them a plate of tacos, once they arrived, she immediately sat or stood next to us and began to eat. Now I'm an understanding individual and everyone gets a break. But from a customer service perspective it would be nice to have your waitress tell you she is doing just that. Now my wife and I have the awkward moment of seeing who was going to take our next round of drinks. After sometime, one gentleman asked if we wanted something else and by that time we found it best to take our business elsewhere. In all I would come back to this place for drinks and socializing. I would never order food again, and I would avoid the waitress I had altogether. read more

I love that we finally have a nice bar in the area! The drinks were amazing. They're not tooooo strong and not tooooo sweet. We got the short rib ramen which was good with the udon noodles; the Aguachile was missing something but once we asked for a side of jalapeños it was better! The empanada and queso Fundido were also pretty tasty. Note: this is an agave bar so it's mostly tequila but they do have substitutions if that's not your cup of tea. The seating and parking is a bit limited so I suggest getting there a bit earlier or only come if you're willing to wait a bit. There is also street parking nearby. read more

Wow! Amazing service, drinks, and food!!! Bartender was very friendly and on top of it! We ordered the asada nachos, fried chicken slider, and shrimp tacos. Everything was so tasty! We also ordered a margarita (no sweet and sour in this drink!), an Esmeralda, and a Love and other Demons. Just delicious! We also got an IPA, which they rotate; today's was from Fieldworks (I assume they always buy locally), and that, too, was delicious! Oh, yeah, the music! Bartender was playing a 70's mix, and it really gave the place a great, positive vibe. We will definitely be returning read more

I went with my friend a few weeks ago and waited to get our drink orders in. As we waited, a group of about 5 people walked in and seemed to know well the server. He skipped us and went straight to them to take their order before us. Mind you, we have been 10mins in. The waiter didn't even acknowledge us. After about 20 mins, my friend and I decided to leave. Terrible service ignoring customers to attend their own friends. read more

A great new addition to the area! I was hesitant to try Blue Rabbit out as they're an agave bar with an extensive tequila list, but their cocktails are AMAZING. The flavor was there AND you can actually feel the alcohol after that first sip. Ravi and Umar were behind the bar and honestly made the experience very chill. We came an hour before closing so it was only me and my partner inside, but we didn't feel uncomfortable or awkward at all. We tried their churros which was great. We didn't get to try their food menu, but we'll definitely try next time. I would give their drinks a 10/10 and can't wait to bring friends back to experience this new bar. Definitely a must try and will be back again soon! read more
