    This was a fun bar to stop by to watch the Penn State football game and play pool. We ordered a pitcher of Death & Taxes black beer to share which was delicious. It wasn't busy during the time we went but would be a good place to just hang out and grab few beers with friends.

    Bud Light! Ice cold.

    Coldest Bud Lights in Oakland! Service is always on point, food excellent, and the crowd even better.

    Our drinks and the tequila hibiscus shot for a cause.  It was yummy.

    Didn't have the food here but I hear others liking them. The ambience is wonderful. Brings me back from old times when we used to come here. The service is awesome as well. We have rediscovered one of our favorite bartenders from another establishment that are working here now. The billiard community here is also a treat to be around. Respectful people around and we always have a good time coming here.

    Street parking Cash Only ATM inside AMI digital juke Pool tables They have Direct TV packages for different sports so if you're looking for a certain game-- you would likely find it here. I was told they had vegan food but I didn't think I would want bar food so I ate beforehand. We went for College Basketball and the bartender was accommodating when we were figuring out where to sit to watch the game and when asked to turn up some volume.. They've got several TVs so different games can be watched.. The place has a divey vibe with regular bar prices.. I overheard someone tell another they had good food. There were restrooms in the back-- one for men and one for women. I'd come back and catch more games there.. drinks were good and maybe next time I'll look into food options..

    Adorable local bar and grill. Stumbled upon this nugget while driving home, and was craving American burgers and some beers. People here felt very connected and friendly, service was good. Ordered their special burger and drinks. Burgers was huge and juicy; one of the better cheeseburgers I've tasted in a while. Fries are amazing, and what can I say? Good vibes all around!

    An old Raider fan landed in Contra Costa 25 years ago. Of course Raider games are not televised here. Not many places to watch Raiders games. Today I decided to try visiting an Oakland sports bar to watch the game. George & Walts was the closest to the tunnel so I gave it a shot. The area feels like Berkeley. Street parking is somewhat available. Free on Sunday. There is a heat wave currently. It's hot inside. Summer is almost over; but replace the ceiling fans. They had multiple games on. No sound. The place is well used. The staff and patrons I spoke with were pleasant people. Had a couple hazy drafts and watched the Raiders loose. 49er fans were not too rude. The 510 fan smoking his cigar right outside the open window made the hot atmosphere a little more unpleasant. I'll be back when it's not so hot to watch a game.

Many beer and mixed drink options but Unfortunately, the food really missed the mark. I ordered chicken tenders and fries, and both were disappointing. The chicken tenders were very dry and lacked flavor, definitely not what I was expecting. I'd give them a 2/5 at best. What really upset me was the fries. I paid an extra $2 to upgrade to the garlic Yeti fries, but they came out as plain fries. I asked for it to be fixed, and when they brought them back, it was just Parmesan sprinkled on top no garlic at all. If I'm paying extra, I expect it to be made correctly. Customer service was just okay. Staff was polite, but when my order was wrong and I asked for it to be fixed, it still came back incorrect. Not much effort to make it right, especially after paying extra for an upgrade.

As it turned out, he's a regular and wanted to have the party here. Question answered. When my brother and I arrived at the venue, the staff was setting up the food, which was served buffet style. They were very friendly and welcoming. The interior had an old school, neighborhood bar feel. It totally reminded me of the TV show "Cheers". The buffet spread was incredible. Except for the whole roast pig, everything was made in house. The baked salmon, roast sirloin of beef, prime rib beef stew, ribs, and chicken were all cooked nicely and delicious. During the middle of the party, one of the owners busted out the karaoke machine and the party went from good to great! A wonderful time was had by everyone. Great friends, chill vibe, and delicious food. What else do you need for a great party? IMHO, Grand Oaks did a great job. I look forward to come back and try their other dishes. 5 stars. BONUS MATERIAL: - Street parking only. - A certain Bay Area celeb hangs out here. I saw her that day.
