I stopped in to see a friend. Quaint location with fresh hand made drinks to order. Corey was a great bartender. Made bloody Mary's, with fresh ingredients. If u live in the area this place is a total recommend. I'll go back again when in the area. I don't think they have food. But I saw there is a pizza place coming in next door, NY style pizza can't wait to try it. This is a nice spot to have a great drink.

I wouldn’t call it a full blown dive bar but it’s close. Chill atmosphere. Drinks are strong in a good way. Everyone is super friendly. Price are solid too. Would recommend.

I came here today during a layover because it's within walking distance to a BART station. It turned out to be a fantastic pub with a friendly bartender and fellow patrons. The atmosphere was relaxing and welcoming. I meant to leave a tip but only realized the bartender gave me the full change when I had left. Sorry about this!
