    Salad
    Tina C.

    I tried their salad, steak frites, and the wings here. Everything was so delicious! The wings were super juicy and the sauce was perfectly balanced. The salad had fresh veggies and lots of protein on top. I loved the thick cuts of steak in the steak frites. I enjoyed eating outdoors in the fresh air and really enjoyed the outdoor seating option. My favorite thing I ordered from here were the wings.

    I recommend this place to 10/10 people! It is super fun and hip with delicious drinks, great food, and games! If any of you are fans of corn hole or bocce ball this hidden gem has it. The vibe and interior is refreshing and upbeat. The service is executed well with friendliness and efficiency.

    Nachos w Carne Asada
    Melody C.

    A Berkeley staple! Raleigh's is definitely a go-to spot in Berkeley both during the day and night. It's a nice spot to grab a tasty and affordable bite to eat. The portions are large! The nachos are an all-time tasty fav. The drink prices are a bit high but are definitely tasty and strong! There is both indoor and outdoor seating. The inside area can get busy to the point where it's difficult to move so I recommend eating outside. One of the outdoor patios is shared with the neighboring business, Mezzo's and is not 21+. The second patio is 21+ and features another bar, tables, TVs, bocce ball, and corn hole. The vibes are very reminiscent of a beer garden. The service is pretty good too! The bartenders are very nice and quick. If you order food, they'll give you a number and bring it out whenever it's ready. Even when it's busy, the servers don't seem to have trouble finding you. Raleigh's is the place to be on Taco Tuesdays. It's the first stop in the Berkeley area bar rotation. You'll find cheap tacos and margaritas (don't expect taco truck quality food though). Be sure to get there early in the evening because it gets packed!

    Spicy Cesar Wrap
    Sophie F.

    I decided to try out Raleigh's for lunch after seeing a video online raving about their spicy chicken Caesar wrap. The setting is very casual--you order at the bar, and they bring the food to your table. Overall, the food was just okay. We got the fries, which were pretty standard, but the chipotle sauce helped elevate them. My mom and sister ordered the Brussels sprouts and chicken wings; they really enjoyed the wings but weren't fans of the sprouts, which were undercooked. The chicken Caesar wrap was definitely the highlight--it had good flavor and lived up to the hype. Mid food and mid vibes. Probably won't be returning.

    Another burg shot

    Raleigh's Pub is such a sweet find. If you're a fan of Mezzo in Berkeley, you may know about this spot already since their backyard space is right next door..but if you're still reading this and looking for an outdoor spot to meet friends and enjoy the weather, a brew, and some yummy pub grub, this is for sure a fun one. Our group ordered a burger and fries, nachos, and brews..all incredibly solid. Juicy meat, crunchy fries, all the dipping sauces, and honestly..I'm always a fan of pub nachos and these were nicely executed. The interior is perfect to get cozy for a game or two, and there's also an even more cozy interior fire pit/spot to get warm. Lotsa foot traffic for CAL events and holidays, we somehow have been here the last few Paddy days (I think they still do green beer?). Regardless give it a go if you're in the mood to wind down or up. Fair pricing, fun food menu and people, and just a good time. There is a garage close-by we usually park in bc street parking is most likely a no-go, although we've been lucky a feeeew times!

    Happy hour $6 wine and sangria
    Nastaran A.

    Love a good happy hour and this place had $6 happy hour wine! That's right up my alley :) I got their sangria and it was delish. They have a really cute back patio area that's vibey with the plants, natural light, and also cute twinkle lights. I haven't tried their food, but I did get a sandwich at Mezzo which is connected next door and that good! Decent price for a large sando.

    Yum
    Hannah N.

    Cheap + yummy margs on Tuesday and fun taco Tuesday deals!! gets super crowded on taco Tuesday with colleges students but overall it's a fun time

    Oak town Brown and Mojito
    John B.

    Great food, good, to the point service. Don't get me wrong the service here is great, but it's a pub grub type of place and they serve you without bugging you. Everything here is tasty with burgers, sandwiches, sliders , salads and more, including a wide brew selection. If you're around UC Berkeley, try this and avoid the touristy dives. This one's for real.

    Nachos
    Tiffany R.

    Nestled in the heart of Berkeley on Telegraph Raleigh's is a great option for lunch, dinner or happy hour. Great good great and cocktail selection. Outside and indoor dining. This you can choose the ambience. Great food options for all palettes

    Beer garden
    Guillermo R.

    Sold 3 stars but I added an extra for nostalgia. I remember when this pub opened, was sad when it burned and happy with its resurrection. If you're looking for a fun spot with a great outdoor beer garden this is your spot. Great local beer selection, decent pub food. I am a sucker for nachos and they do them well. Skip the wine stick to beer. GO BEARS!

    I pissed myself at raleighs. And im really wet. I am 27 years old. Beers were really good. Buddy got the lavender cumbuchy and it was fye

    Lemon pepper wings
    Ralph L.

    Don't get the lemon pepper they salt them to the max !!! The only reason they get a five star is for the amount of chicken wings. They're lucky I wasn't picky about it being too salty because it was crazy salty however nextime I'll just try something else

    Anna H.

    Ambiance: There is inside and door seating both are built very comfortably and warm. The outside seating is super aesthetic, especially at night as they have string lights hung up. There is a lot of seating options so regardless of your party size you will definitely find a table there. Service: the service was super nice and it seems like they also celebrate 21st birthdays very well as we saw a group of girls celebrating their 21st birthday and they were allowed to be on top of the bar table for their first drink as per their request, which I'm sure made it memorable for them. Food: the chicken wings were super crispy and the sauce was heaven! It tasted like sweet and sour sauce and dipping it with the ranch was just the perfect combination. I would definitely recommend this place

    Can I smoke in the outdoor patio in the back?

    No.

    Can I go with a friend for dinner who isn't 21?

    They only start going 21+ past a certain point in the night like a lot of bar/grill places. IIRC it's around 8PM, but you can probably give them a call to ask too!

    Once known for good beer selection and entertainment, it is still all that but also with solid pub…read morefood. The entertainment and community feel of the place is the #1 highlight. Open mic night gives young people a voice. Older musicians act as unofficial mentors - the best advice from one was to 'make me feel something!!' I love the art scene - and to me there is a special intersection of utility (maybe articulating an important message - or building a useful couch) --- and the beauty of that piece. How you put it together, how it looks and most importantly how it makes you feel when you sink into the couch or words. I have a lot of opinions and a lot to say. These days you really can't complain much - in the world you are a nag and in church you are labeled a legalist. The secret is if you say those things in a beautiful way or tip toe around a subject asking questions and letting the audience come up with their own conclusions. The young people today I have lots of sympathy for. The 50 year olds could get away with earning $50k/yr - the 40 year olds could get away with earning $100k/yr but the 20 and 30 year olds in the bay area with 2 kids need to earn $200k in their household to make ends meet. Gentrification is the enemy - those who are 'rich.' Lets blame the boomers. Maybe there are some other 'enemies' of the unaffordable nature of the bay area. A witch hunt aiming at tech workers or the unhoused or maybe today AI robots. My brother pays $4000/month for babysitting. I think his house tax is another $1000/month and we aren't even talking about the mortgage yet.... In San Francisco a family of 4 can qualify for free babysitting if they earn $178,300 or less per year. Maybe you can't call this the poverty level - but you qualify for everything including housing assistance. I'm sorry no beautiful poetry for you today. No lit slam. No soup for you!! I will continue building my couches - you take the stage!!

    Starry Plough....Oh wow! This is really a cool scene…read more There's a different event seven nights a week. Today the day after July 4 celebration is sort of an Irish music session in the place is packed at 5:45 PM! Great musicians and a fun atmosphere, but it seems like the same continuous song plays between breaks with a slight adjustment of the melody. Sort of a hypnotic repetitive groove, not so unlike "ON THE CORNER" by Miles Davis but not really, ha ha! OK kids, please plug that into your little machine and have a listen. Feel that groove in "BLACK SATIN" The Starry Plough is a full service restaurant, pub and nightclub that has been a staple of the East Bay scene since 1973. With deep roots as an Irish Revolutionary watering hole, the history of protest runs as deep today as it did when they opened five decades ago. And they have really good food and a great tap beer list. Also, the very best bartenders and staff throughout! I just had a half order of the handcut french fries and they really are top-notch man, they're served with different condiments that you can help yourself to. I chose the Sriracha sauce and ketchup. I couldn't find the horseradish tonight. I've been coming in here for several years and I really dig it. Very special people hang out here, kind of a hippie Berkeley vibe. I've had great long conversations and met very groovy folks. It's a great watering hole.

    WE LOCALS LOVE THIS PUB and Cameron has done so much for our community! This place is so unique and…read morehis collection of EVERYTHING is incredible. The food is great as well and he has NOT raised his prices by much over the years. Whereas most of the other restaurants in town and up and down the coast have raised prices, the portion sizes have gotten smaller and there are no longer any local discounts. Also remember that this is PUB food, so people shouldn't expect Michelin Star dishes. There are so many great dishes on the menu that I can't even quote them all (favorites of mine are the chili, onion ring tower, burgers/fries and the fish and chips. It is good down home family fun for all and he also has sports on all of the time on multiple tv's. This truly is a hidden gem and time capsule that has survived for decades and will probably keep going strong long after some of these high priced, fancy food places have gone out of business. This truly is the Disneyland of PUBS in the US. I highly recommend checking out this pub because you're gonna get a lot more than just food and drink!

    I remember taking the kids here when they were little and that was over 10 years ago…read more We came over from over the East Bay to beat the heat and brought our pup. When trying to decide where to get dinner on Main Street, we couldn't make a decision. My husband suggested Cameron's so we drove over. Dog Friendly: Lucked out with a spot in front of the patio! Lucked out with a table (anywhere) to sit with our dog. They offer water bowls and toys to play with while we're dining. My dog was able to chill for the most part (larger dogs make our rescue pup nervous) but he liked the couple behind us. Eclectic: It's a cool place with different dining areas. They were setting up for Karaoke (Friday/Saturday nights). There's so much to explore with all the knick knacks. The playlist in the dining room area was a wide range of music - I don't know how to explain it but you're listening to "It's a Small World" and then "Sweet Caroline!" You have to see it for yourself. The gender assigned restrooms are located in between the pinball machines. I literally walked outside and then walked back in when I finally found it and was embarrassed! Food: We split the special of the day - prime rib sandwich, but my husband was still hungry and we split a sampler platter. The food was what I expected - pub grub but it was worth it with the vibe. Drink: I usually don't drink but their cocktails were really good. I forgot what I had but it was the rum based drink. Overall, I hope I don't wait another 10 years to return - that was a great ending to our day trip to Half Moon Bay.

To start, they didn't have a single British beer on the menu. Guinness is Irish, not British, so that was already a letdown. On top of that, they were out of Scotch--pretty surprising for a pub. The service was friendly, and our server was very sweet and apologetic, but it was clear he had not been properly trained and didn't seem familiar with the menu. It took multiple trips to our table just to clarify that the clam chowder did not contain meatballs; the other soup of the day was meatball soup. Even then, the explanation we got was confusing. We also asked for our soup to come before the entrées, but everything arrived at the same time. As for the food, three of us ordered the fish and chips, and it was disappointing. The fries were cold and soggy, and the fish was soggy on the bottom where it sat on the fries. The fish itself seemed decent and tasted fine, but it was not prepared well. One person had the burger and had no complaints, and another had the shrimp scampi pasta, which looked good and seemed to be enjoyed. Overall, the experience just didn't live up to expectations.
