You can come in and order at the bar or snag a seat and order through Toast and they'll bring everything to you. Love getting the Caesar salad, hummus and pita, and shishito peppers. The pizzas are decent but nothing special. Love getting a hazy here, usually the "Pulp" or a sour like the Fog Ripper. Service is pretty good when they're not swamped.

Jr's recommendations are always spot on and he knows what I like so every visit is an adventure in what's going to be next on the list to try.

If you want to see what's new each week you can see him live on Instagram and you'll see and hear all about each one as he opens then, tries them, and explains the flavors, finishes and nuances of the beers. Glad they are in Castro Valley.

Very well thought out with what they carry. Lotto tickets and alcohol - thats probably top reasons to visit - convenience - its such a drag to walk into a grocery store sometimes.

This general area has a few places to bar hop - Funky Monkey, Stein, Dirty Bird and The Bistro - going to some or all of the above on any given evening makes for good fun. Smaller bands are great to discover here. It makes for a very lively atmosphere. Hayward goes above and beyond with community events and closing down B street regularly. There are two pizza places nearby - I prefer Susie Qs - its very upscale for Hayward. OOops, I'm sorry - that wasn't meant to be some backhanded compliment about the city. From what I know the owner of this place is actively involved in the city of Hayward and I like that. All the more reason to support this establishment. Downtown Hayward can be very fun - its not the worst place to live - just get out and make the best of it.

This place had a low-key vibe that gave off connection and good times with friends! The menu was definitely American style although they had some stuff that could be considered Spanish or Italian as well, I ordered shrimp, scampi, my friend ordered a nice juicy burger and some fries! I wanna say it was the aïoli burger, but I can't remember! Their cocktails are lovely as well and make mocktails too. Definitely recommend.
