What People Are Saying
from Google"Such a cool dive. Best greyhound anywhere. Great ambiance and place to have a conversation over drinks."
"dive bar vibes. not a bad thing but atmosphere was definitely different from shiru next door which is more my speed so i felt a bit out of place. i wanted to get out of there as quickly as possible. because it was a bit overstimulating. the grapefruit drink was good (and pulpy). $10 drink in n out wasn’t bad but i could have skipped it. i see the appeal but it just wasn’t for me."
"Spent my 42nd birthday here by my self. The atmosphere is amazing. The walls are covered from floor to ceiling in knick knacks that will keep your eyes searching the walls for a long time. The Bartender (Shy) was AMAZING. Kind, sweet and patient. Thanks for a fun birthday!"
"Go for the greyhounds and stay for the funky vibe. Great stop before/after the Fox Theater"
"Consistently one of my favorite bars in Oakland. I’m a tequila kinda gal but I always drink greyhounds when I’m here (as is tradition)."
