I've been coming here on and off for years with my two friends whenever they want to celebrate…read moresomething. Personally, this bar wouldn't make my top 50 list, but for some crazy reason they're loyal to it, so I show up for them. Recently, I've popped in a bit more and wow, the "changes." They finally made an Instagram, which got me excited for a second--maybe they were stepping it up. Nope. Just like everything else here, it's inconsistent. They post food specials, I come in ready to spend money, and... no food. Overheard it was a management issue. Shocking. Then there's the alcohol selection--or lack thereof. I'm not even a big drinker, and I have a better bar setup at home. Half the time they're out of basics, or waiting on the owner to maybe, someday, bring more. Call yourself a bar? More like BYOB and hope for the best. I'll give credit where it's due: I've met some cool people here, and they're the only thing keeping this place alive. But even they seem tired of the chaos. I heard this is the oldest bar in San Leandro, and honestly, I'm amazed it's still standing. Must be sheer luck or nostalgia, because it's definitely not management. Two stars because I don't hate the regulars--but let's be real, if this place wants to survive, it needs way more than an Instagram and a prayer.

We came on a Friday evening expecting a fun dance club to dance the night away, as the marketing…read morefor this place promised dancing at 10pm. Instead, there was a super lame comedy show with various incredibly lame misogynistic comedian-wannabes, including one who would not shut about about "B*tches in Los Angeles." Dude, why are you calling women b*tches? And we're in Oakland, we're not gonna care about Los Angeles and the culture there. Most people were just sitting around on their phones. We felt misled and scammed. We decided to bounce after about 20 minutes there, and will seek a refund. They take Venmo as payment, so gonna have to dispute through Venmo. It's kind of shady that they request Venmo payment, and not, ya know, credit card payment like any other vendor.

"Somewhere fun" was my response, and my partner delivered; a short while later we arrived at Turf Club. What a fun and lively place indeed! Everyone looked like they were having a great time, including the bar staff. Our bartender Tony was a breath of fresh air - friendly and unpretentious. He made us some yummy drinks and checked in on us regularly. It wasn't long before Tony and we were all belting out "Smells Like Teen Spirit" together - ah, the fast friendships that form over a bar top. We put on some other tunes on the jukebox as well, and had a blast. No kitchen, but they do have a vending machine with various snacks. Very nice, expansive patio in the back, and they have live music. Such a fun spot, and we will absolutely return.

We finished up our day in the Castro Valley/Hayward area with this place. Pictures looked like a…read morefun place so we gave it a try even though recent reviews are lacking. Andrea kept saying she wanted to go some place fun. Well this was it!!!! Upon walking in there is one of the longest wooden bars I've seen. We found a couple seats almost to the far end and ordered drinks from our bartender Tony. More about Tony later. The Touch Tunes digital jukebox was rocking the whole night from "Teen Spirit" to "Neon Moon" with the aforementioned bartender, Tony, singing away, and dancing as well as most of the other patrons. A little exploring past the bar is a huge room with several electronic dartboards and continuing further is a good size outdoor patio with another bar. This patio looks over a pretty good size stage and seating area. The band was packing up when we got there so not sure what they were playing. Inside at the bar is a huge screen displaying the stage. There where signs for hot dogs but I think they where out. They did have a vending machine for chips, M&M's and other assorted healthy bar snacks. So drinks were good and Tony kept checking to make sure we were ok as well as another bartender who brought out baskets of popcorn for everyone. We will be back to this place for sure!!!

The DJ was pretty good that night and he covered top music from 90's to today. Drinks were sooooo good!! We started off with just tequila and soda, but as the night got later I needed a little pick me up. I was initially going for an espresso martini, but I saw After Hours which consisted of Tequila Reposado, Espresso Liquor 43, Coconut and Milk Wash and ofc I had to get that... All I can say is WOW!! There were other drinks that looked really interesting too, but I wasn't trying to get too faded, so I'll have to come back and check them out. Service was very prompt and friendly despite it being pretty busy.

Not a lot of people were there, so it was a relaxing environment to talk to them in. We got so many drinks -- they're typical prices for bars, but I am very glad about my selection being drinks I thoroughly enjoyed. Jarrito Jam was my first one, it was delicious, but I honestly bought it to hold the little clay pot it came in. Nutty By Nature was my second drink. I enjoyed it, but it lacked the pistachio aspect of the flavorings. Orange Crush was my third drink and I loved it more than Nutty By Nature. My spouse got a Tiki Track and Tropicana and loved both of them a lot! I also loved my spouse's Tropicana drink and plan on getting it tonight when we go back to get my wallet I left there! Thank you to the people who picked up the phone today and helped me locate my wallet!
