About Crybaby

Crybaby is a lively restaurant and event space known for its diverse entertainment, including DJs and performers from the Bay Area and beyond. The venue hosts themed nights like "Drake Night" and "R&B Night," offering a vibrant atmosphere. It features a full bar, a smoking section outside, and an upstairs area with a view of the dance floor. The security is usually kind but stern, helping guests feel safe. The balcony and back patio provide relaxing spots to chill. Customers appreciate the good prices on drinks and the chance to support a local, black/asian owned business. However, some find the space limited during dance nights, with only a small area open for dancing, which can be disappointing. It’s recommended to pregame before visiting, as false advertising about drink specials on Instagram has been reported, leading to some frustration. Overall, Crybaby remains a popular spot for those looking for good music, fun nights, and a lively environment, but visitors should check their website or Instagram for updates on music genres and specials before coming.
