Tonight my friend and I visited Vinne's Bar in Concord, and our experience with security was deeply…read moreupsetting. During the security screening, our bags were searched and we were patted down, which we understand may be standard procedure. However, the security guard went far beyond what we considered appropriate by squeezing our breasts during the pat-down. We immediately objected and made it clear that we were uncomfortable and felt violated. The guard identified himself as "Natty Martinez" (although we are not sure whether that was his real name). After the incident, we watched other patrons entering the bar and did not observe anyone else being subjected to the same level of physical contact. That left us feeling as though we had been singled out and treated differently. No one should expect to be touched in such an invasive manner simply for entering a bar. Security screenings can be conducted professionally and respectfully. This experience was humiliating, unnecessary, and completely ruined our evening. I hope management takes this complaint seriously, reviews any available security footage, and ensures that all security staff are properly trained on appropriate search procedures and respectful treatment of customers.

Club 1220 is such a magical venue! Loved celebrating Pride with friends over the weekend here, and…read morefrequenting this spot over the years with friends as well. The community is amazing, and it's always such a blast. Pro-tip, there's a cash cover at the door but a 711 literally steps away just in case you're like me and never carry cash :) There's a parking lot adjacent. Quick service, friendly staff, plenty of seating in case you don't want to hit the dance floor or want a sip break, and themed events/nights/cocktails. From my knowledge not a foodie spot at this time. Def the kinda spot to grab dinner in downtown Walnut Creek before and hit up post-meal.

The only negative was the bartender rudely and incorrectly gave me the wrong drink twice. I asked for a Michelob ultra, got a modelo and then when I let them know I wanted a Michelob she said "no you said modelo" and then proceeded to hand me a bud light.....

I went to the Bayview Eagles performance space, adjacent to the bar for a fabulous Cajun/Zydeco…read moreperformance by a new friend of mine, Andrew Carriere and his group of extremely talented musicians. He comes from a storied Louisiana family of Cajun and Zydeco musicians. He is versatile, sings, plays the triangle, the harmonica and the washboard. and in my little experience of watching him play with various groups, he lets everyone shine. His band's music was made for dancing and I have two left or right feet. The regular fans know what they are coming for - to dance. One of these days I'll earn without upsetting a partner. But then someone has to pay the price for teaching a newbie. A great place to visit for affordable beer and some wine. If Andre performs there, I'll be prepped to dance :)

Spoontonic is such a hidden gem! I moved to Walnut Creek a couple years ago and a neighbor said…read morethere was a bar I could walk to in 5 minutes so of course I was gonna check it out. I'm glad I did! I forget the bartenders name but she's great! Very attentive even in a full bar, very few times has she ever not really paid attention to us. Better than other bars on the same street *cough*.. Pros: Quick cheap drinks, cool dark comfy underground vibe, pretty good amount of seating, easy parking/Uber pickup and drop off. Cons: Small venue so it has the potential to be crammed Friday/Saturday nights. No drinks outside. Only activity is darts. I noticed the type of crowd is all over the place. Sometimes it's an older crowd and other times its a younger crowd. Sometimes it's mixed.

She seemed drunk/tipsy. I am Central American and Portuguese. She was beyond insulting I can see why this place has only 10 people in it on a Friday night. She scares women away by being nasty and rude , and she's not hot enough to keep a male crowd. Music was decent, ambiance was fitting.

Disclaimer: I was already slightly acquainted with Nathan through the very large swing dance…read morecommunity (of which I was a part for many many years) before we took him on for private swing dance/ lindy lessons. We had taken a couple of his group classes before at the Savannah Jazz Club, where my friend, Catrine Ljunggren, runs a regular Wednesday night dance event. Nathan is awesome. He's a great dancer and teacher, and was very patient with us as we went through our sessions prior to the wedding. He has a great eye for examining movement and demonstrating what could be done better or differently; and even drew up lists of moves for us to aid our rather shaky memories.... I highly recommend taking his group classes, or hiring him for private lessons if you wish to swing dance at your wedding. His rates are very reasonable, and he has ample room in his home for a couple so you don't have to pay for additional studio space.
