Solid vibes. Passed by here and said “woah this place looks cool.” And a man sitting outside said, “come on by”. Come back to find him again, seems he’s the manager or owner possibly?
We fully enjoyed our experience. Sat at the bar and got to see all the drinks being made and made conversation with the friendly bartender. They have a wide variety of cocktails and mocktails which we tried out and the ahi tuna sliders.
The only minuscule drawback was the acoustics of the place. I think it would’ve really made it a true 5/5 on ambience if there was a bit more noise dampening ceiling and wall structures.

What a discovery! Came here for the first time yesterday and had the best of first impressions. To kick things off I ordered a Scotch Old Fashioned with Laphroaig which was not only made with care and craftsmanship but had the added touch of a block of ice embossed with the letter T. This was followed up with the Brussels sprouts which were the best I've had in a long time. They had that roasted crispy crunch on the outside but a juicy sweet center with a honey sambal vinaigrette, incredible. Lastly, I've heard rave reviews of their bacon fettuccine with chicken and sausage. Savory and bountiful, this did not disappoint. Lastly, hats off to the service who were so professional, personable and humorous. Can't wait to get back.

Food taste very good, had better pattay, portions were kind of small and pricey. The place needs some improvements. Ok for lunch.

Didn’t eat here just went for a drink with Ed after the KISS show in Oakland. Good drinks, has potential to have good food. Limited bar menu only though.
Eric is an outstanding bartender at Town Tavern. He’s creative, attentive, and clearly knows his craft. I asked for something custom, and he came up with a cocktail that was perfectly balanced and unique. His attention to detail and ability to tailor drinks to your taste really set him apart. If you’re looking for great drinks and excellent service, he’s the one to go to. Highly recommend.

When the staff's enjoyment at work is palpable, you know you've found a good spot. The good times didn't stop at the extremely pleasant service. It was hard to decide what to order because everything sounded so good. The Cajun fettuccine sounded great, but I couldn't find a picture on Google (not a problem anymore 😘). I took a risk and ordered site unseen, and was very happily rewarded. The dish is a thick portion of deliciousness!!! The perfect amount of proteins, chicken/sausage/bacon, were brought to life with a very mild spice and perfect noodles. The bartender wisely told me that there would be leftovers if not splitting the dish. I treated myself to crazy town good leftovers for a late breakfast.
In short, highly recommend you dine or drink here, and when you do, I believe you will be delighted by the staff, overall atmosphere, and the Cajun fettuccine if you liked this review.

The environment is great and staff is pleasent. Their expertise as a craft cocktail bar comes through in revolving specials, and exciting spirits demonstrations brought to you by brand reps.
Try the food, the french fries taste like the first time you've had McDon's.
Great little bar in the center of alameda. Very friendly staff. Good menu selection, bar food that is. Reasonable prices. Cash only however so make sure you bring greenbacks with you. Centrally located.

Clean simple modern vibe. Bathrooms are clean/nice. We ordered drinks. Couple minutes later we ordered food. The food came after about 15 minutes before we got our drinks… Makes ZERO sense the place wasn’t that busy. Then when they did bring our drinks, she said “I got five drinks here for you”. I said there’s only four of us ??♂️ The sliders were super yummy. The nachos were pretty good and the brussels sprouts were really good too.
