I ordered the bacon cheeseburger (no mayo) and sub with truffle fries (extra $3). This is an Oakland airport restaurant close to gate 26. I came in and sat. You seat yourself which is great bc I picked a beautiful view on the window bar. See picture. I started to download the bar code for their menu when the waitress came by and asked if I prefer a menu. I gladly said yes, I am not a fan of the bar code menu. She took my order and it came pretty quick. Stopped by a few times to make sure I was ok. I really appreciate it. I gave it a four because of the small tray provided, it got messy and was hard to keep my food within the small tray along with fries. The truffle fries were good, they just added crumble pieces of cheese which made it hard to grab on fries. The food and service were great. Food was super tasty aside no mayonnaise. Pricing is high but it's the airport. Also saw an extra $2.75 fee as well added. My total with $5 dollar tip came out to $35. read more

Flew out of Oakland International Airport a few weeks back and had a little time to spare before take off. Draft House seemed like a good spot as it was close to my gate. I took a seat at the bar and was welcomed immediately and directed to the QR code to place my order. I ended up ordering an Old Fashioned through the bartender as the app said it was sold out. The drink was well-made, generous with the bourbon, and filled almost to the top of the glass. The guy next to me ordered chicken strips and fries and the smell tempted me to order a side of truffle fries! For the price, I expected a bit more fries but they were good. Overall, a decent spot for a quick drink and snack before flying. read more

Of course this place was in the airport. I was early and hungry. Sat at bar and received the best service while waiting for my other travel buddies. The bartender was fun and funny with great recommendations. The place was average in noise and just a bar in the airport nothing spectacular. Now, my burger was the bomb and those fries I loved also. But that Margarita for Maragalisa was freaking amazing. read more

Flight was significantly delayed, so I decided to have dinner at the Draft House. It was cool that they have QR codes at the table to order and pay from your phone. They have a bunch of TVs with sports playing. The vibe felt like a fun sports bar. Unfortunately, the food was subpar. Food and drinks came out very fast, but that was really the only positive. I asked my server for sweetener for my iced tea three times and never got it. The Mediterranean salad looked so unappetizing when it arrived. It ended up being ok, but still utterly disappointing. Someone next to me ordered a flatbread pizza, which looked decent. I would not go here again as I've gotten better food in order at the counter spots at this airport. read more

Stopped by for a quick meal before my flight and it was a good experience. Seating is pretty available and customer service was friendly. I like the convenience of ordering by scanning a QR code. I opted to order a chicken tender value meal and upgraded to a salad. The value meal also includes a soda. The portions were on the smaller side, but the food came out pretty quickly. The garden salad was pretty mediocre, and didn't seem super fresh. Overall, an average and convenient meal for the airport. Not sure I would stop by for another meal, but it's one of the dine-in options here. read more

I've been coming here since the opening in 2022 and have enjoyed each visit. Winner of the International Bar Award for Airports in 2023, Oakland Draft House has a variety of beers, mainly from Sierra Nevada Brewing but also serves wines, cocktails and food. The views of the Bay are an excellent element to enjoy here. There is. bar seating and dining tables available. The servers are fairly fast even during peak time hours. Try a burger and beer. My favorites are the Oak Burger and Torpedo IPA. read more

Fiery wings were really good. Usually I think extra crispy wings to be like bumpy and crumbly like chinese fried wings or wingstop. But this one was like smooth fried. Still nice crunch and the flavor was reminiscent of bacon. Celery was also diff than I used to. More bendy and stringy but still felt fresh idk Baby Carrots were not like round pills like Im used to also diff. Were cut and peeled from big carrots. Also good. Extra One of the few places that stayed open late 8:15pm expensive meal but tasty, is it worth? Id say so sure there were no fries but just a lil more expensive than wingstop and some quality wings. 4/5 read more

Same great service! Super fast. Yummy fries. Jorge was very friendly and accommodating!

Super hearty and delicious breakfast! I got the breakfast burger, essentially a hamburger plus a whole serving of scrambled eggs, bacon and cheese. Came with a big dish of tater tots! This was two meals in one and I won't need to eat for the rest of the day! Reasonably priced, considering we are at the airport. Loved having a nice table for laptop work plus a delicious meal before departure today. Order on the QR code, need a credit card for that. Service was prompt and friendly. Could do without the overhead music as it's loud enough, but ok. I'd eat here again. read more

This restaurant was convenient at the end of the concourse and this was our choice after viewing three or four other menus along the concourse here. This menu spoke to us. Our food came.

Jorge did an amazing job today as he waited on us. We aren't really good with The QR menu so he took our order manually, a real sweetheart!

I was on my way to a flight and I ordered chicken wings and then I ordered a 9 ounce glass of white Chardonnay that equal $45. I'm like my God so that's why I stopped because I'm not spending $56 in a airport put the chicken wings had sauce on it, but I was not given napkins. I had to ask for him. I was not giving water I had to ask for that is two women in a man walking across the bar they making sure everybody's get help. I get a credit for that, but I had to ask for my stuff for $45.

Came here for dinner before a short flight. We have been to their takeaway spot right next door and had a good experience. Also, who can say no to Sierra Nevada beer on tap? We ordered a grilled chicken sandwich and the Korean chicken Mac and cheese. I also had a Wild lil thing sour beer. The chicken sandwich was good but pretty standard. The Korean chicken Mac and cheese was interesting. The chicken was crispy but the "Korean" sauce was tangy and spicy. The max and cheese was definitely the star. Come here for a quick eat and good beer. Service was ok (some items forgotten from our order and had to remind the staff). You seat yourself and when we arrived it was pretty packed. TVs in the area and open seating with good lighting. read more

This is the main sit-down restaurant in OAK Terminal 1. Its like a sports bar with a bunch of flatscreens and barstool seating plus some tables around the perimeter. Note they have no high chairs for the little ones. The menu and payment is all done by QR code, so be extra careful you don't accidentally pay twice with too many clicks on ApplePay. No worries, the restaurant will refund you if this happens. The food is AOK. Fries were crispy and came in cute little metal fryer baskets. Cheeseburger was really dry, but cutting up the meat and dousing with ketchup was key to getting our 3yo to eat it. French dip was solid, as was the fried chicken burger. read more

Sit wherever, but FYI you need to order and pay using the QR code on the table sticker. If you insist, they will bring you a paper menu and take your order at the table. Unfortunately they were out of the soft pretzel which sounded great. I should have read the reviews before I ordered and just ordered a burger. But no, I ordered the pulled pork Mac n cheese with bacon. Bacon was burnt and the burnt taste permeated the pulled pork rendering it inedible. Tried to eat Mac and cheese from the bottom. Why is the Mac n cheese watery? Did the cheese sauce break via microwave? Wine is served by small or large, but no mention of ounces. $20 for a "large" The best part about this restaurant is the view, if you can get a window seat. I moved to the window the second a spot opened up. I felt bad for my server because she obviously can't control how the food comes out. When I mentioned about the burnt bacon I saw she was taking a practically uneaten pulled pork Mac back to the kitchen. So two unhappy people. I didn't ask for a refund or a redo because I did eat some of the Mac. I definitely enjoyed my "large" wine - I'm going to guess 8 oz - and the view. read more

Quick stop here before flight back home! Located in Terminal 2. Sit wherever is open and order from QR menu. Food arrived fast! Hostess was attentive. Nice view of the water. Ordered the Korean chicken Mac and cheese with side of truffle fries. Mac and cheese was yummy, packed with a good amount of heat. Super cheesy and creamy, yes! Fries went well to balance the heat of the chicken. My brother ordered the Korean chicken. The side of pickled cucumbers had a perfect acid punch. Also ordered glass of red wine which went nicely with the meal. Clean atmosphere and friendly staff. Menu had a good selection of eats. Would definitely come here again for a quick stop. Thank you Oakland Draft! read more

Overpriced reheated gas station food. Might be worse than gas station food when you're paying 20 dollars for chicken strips.

Mostly Sierra Nevada brand ales and beers, noticed on the menu the IBU on their "Sunny" beer was way off. Ordered a flatbread, could have cooked the dough crust better, but was tasty and filling. No padding on any of the chairs, so if you have a bad back you may want to fine somewhere else just sit. read more

This isn't airport food. If you're stuck at the airport and have time for a meal give them a try. The pulled pork sandwich and the bacon cheeseburger are amazing. And there is a nice beer selection as you'd expect from a draft house. The entrees are nearly $20/each and the beers are about $10. But at least it is really good food. read more

Oh my where do I start. Stopped in for a quick bite before our flight. Had two rounds of drinks where they upsell the double shot. I had the bacon burger and he had the chicken strips. Total check $71 plus $10 tip. Then I paid the tab and she came back saying I owed $12. How does this happen? She said my bank only paid partial. How does my bank only pay a partial bill. Something didn't feel right. They went back and forth and voided my last bill. It felt criminal like what are y'all doing with my credit card. I don't even remember if the food was good. read more

Food came out fairly quickly for airport food. I got a chicken sandwich and a side salad. I liked the honey mustard dressing for the salad. The onion in the salad was pretty strong. (Sorry to the person sitting next to me on the flight). The chicken sandwich was ok. Liked the bun -- think it was brioche. The server was very friendly and talkative to most Of the customers at the bar. The restaurant looks out in water, it might be the Pacific. Overall the place seems like a casual vibe. The prices are higher that non airport food, but that is to be expected. read more

The view was great and that was all. I am not a fan of ordering my meal on my phone and not engaging with staff. There was no option to add sides or make comments. It also had us pay ahead of time, including a tip before services provided. The staff was not engaged with the customers. The food was very bland and lacked flavor. I wished I would have gone to subway instead. Although I do not expect much from airport food, I do expect great customer service. read more

We visited the Oakland Draft House while waiting for our flight to board. You seat yourself and order/pay via a QR Code that is located on the table. We ordered a beer, lemonade, grilled chicken sandwich and Korean BBQ Chicken. Our beer and food arrived all together but it took us waving down our server to get my lemonade. We made the mistake of ordering a batch of fries late and after 30 minutes of waiting we had to wave someone down again to get the item. The food was fine and the ambiance was nice. I would recommend if you come here to order everything at once and make sure before the waiter leaves your table that you have everything you need. If you want a recommendation from me the to go portion of this restaurant (we tried it on our last visit) had a good menu and better service. read more

Just go to Subway. If you're unlucky enough to end up here, don't order the $20 chicken tenders if you have kids. Just get two orders of the value tenders to save yourself $6 on a side order of fries for the same thing as the $20 tender meal (breakdown below). Chicken tenders meal: 4 tenders, fries, sauce ($20) Value tender meal: 2 tenders, fries, sauce ($10) Side order of fries: $6 The difference between the two meals above makes no sense. The burger is the equivalent of elementary school burgers with vegetables and the chicken tenders are literally Tyson frozen chicken tenders. The QR code you use for the menu and for payment will allow you to keep an open tab. However if the tab is open without any orders for 40+ minutes, they grant themselves a 20% gratuity whether they provided any real service to you or not. I would not recommend tipping; the "servers" are essentially expo (food runners) and bussers. The "servers" don't talk at all like a traditional server would treat you at a brick and mortar restaurant, therefore you are tipping/interacting with someone that you is working an iPad to order for you. On the flip side, if you don't tip don't expect your drink to be refilled or anything (obviously). Overall, the food is equivalent to school lunch with a $20 price tag per item and the crazy expectation to tip for absolutely nothing other than keeping the company from paying a livable wage. 10/10 would not come back. read more

Surprised that this place was rated so low. I had some time to kill before a flight and needed whatever the combination lunch/dinner meal is called so I came here and had a meal salad and a beer by the window overlooking the bay. It was way less crowded than the Pyramid outpost, and the view was spectacular. The food was ready in minutes (which, for an airport, is worth a lot of points). read more

Its been a long time since I've walked out of restaurant. And I don't think I've ever left a one star review for restaurant. But I was very disappointed in the process and the morning crew. There was a sign at the front that said seat yourself so I did. And I am waiting for service because it appeared to be a sit down restaurant. I didn't realize you needed to scan a QR code until after I went to the bar and asked "Do I order from you first" then they mentioned the QR Code. So I scan the QR code at 9:50am to order breakfast because it said on the menu up front that breakfast can be ordered up to 10:00am. I follow the prompts and it's 9:58am when I'm done then the app says "current menu no longer available". So I go to try to get some help, the first person says "I'm not your server you want me to get your server" but the tone seemed so dismissive. Then the person who was actually supposed be my server acted like she was too busy to come over so I went back to the bar and asked "Are you my server" and she's like yeah and then I explained to her what happened and that is was not 10am yet. She explained the app cuts it off. So I asked can I order it from you directly and she said no. Management needs to figure this out because customer service was pretty non-existent. I went to Southie two places down though it wasn't a sit down and had a five star experience. read more

Good food for the airport, and convenient while you're waiting - but be prepared for airport prices.

Glad to have a nice sit down restaurant at the end of terminal 2. Can't go wrong with lots of Sierra Nevada choices. My burger and salad presented great. My server Madeleen was very helpful and professional. read more

Oakland Draft House - Nice presentation. - Wine Bars Near Me - Oakland, California

We stopped here for a quick dinner before our flight. We seated ourselves, scanned the QR code at our table, and placed our order and paid virtually. We were in and out in 20 minutes! California chicken-this sandwich was simple and okay. A basic grilled chicken with avocado was a good choice before our flight but not memorable. This came with fries. We also ordered some chicken tenders and a side salad. These were okay-not remarkable but fine. All of our food was good quality but not seasoned. Here is where the 2 stars come from: For a restaurant that is centered around beer...we would have loved to try some of their beer, but the beer was simply too expensive. You could get a pint of beer for half of the price at a local brewery. Save your money! The food also was too expensive for the quantity AND the quality we got. While the food was clean, it was the bare minimum. It was the definition of acceptable, but not more. The serving size of everything but the chicken tenders was too small, so we were overcharged. I think it's good to have both virtual and non virtual menu options. If you are short on power in an airport or lack wifi access, you likely can't eat here. I can imagine it is hard to run a restaurant in an airport, and I want to be understanding that everyones got flights to catch. With that being said, I don't think it is fair that they charge the same-and at times HIGHER-prices as many smaller businesses who put their heart and soul into their food and brew. They either need more creativity into their menu, or readjustment of their prices, preferably both. They have room to improve and I hope they step it up. Otherwise I think that they should be replaced with a restaurant who makes the effort. Walking back to our gate, it was tough seeing all the other places we could have eaten instead of here :( read more

If you're in the Oakland airport and waiting for your flight and are hungry for something that is perfectly fine, then the Oakland Draft House will be perfectly serviceable. Unlike many, I like the QR menu, since you'll get your food quickly, and my server was professional and friendly and quick. The ambiance is, I mean, well, it's the Oakland airport.

I got the Oak burger specifically because it had ghost pepper cheese on it. It was something I had been wanting to try on a burger. When my burger arrived the server let me know that it didn't have ghost pepper cheese as they had quit using it. I wish the server told me that when I ordered it! This was a $19.99 burger. It a dry patty with very little beefy taste. My wife got the California chicken sandwich. She said it was tasteless. I tried it and agreed with her. The avocado spread was bland and the chicken didn't have much flavor unless you got some of sriracha mayo on it. The french fries were barely warm on both orders. We order a side of Bavarian pretzels. For some reason they didn't arrive till 15 minutes after our sandwiches. The server kept checking on them and we finally had to get them to go. They were the best thing we had. I realize it is a new place in the airport. I hate giving bad reviews unless they are necessary to warn other yelpers. Hopefully it will improve over time read more

On a girls trip we wanted to have some drinks plus mimosas! Once we order our food next door same restaurant just one is to go and one to dine in. If you order at dash house you cannot use there seating but if you want drinks you can sit at the bar so thats what we did. My friends started settling in to the bar and once my friend order a drink then the bartender said " you guys are taking up all my bar seating are you guys going to order drink" with an attitude and proceeded to walk away after i told her I want a mimosa. This was employee Shell. And when we tried to walk to the table a lady shouted "you cant sit there only order in here" in-front of the few customers. That was embarrassing! Food: was not it!
