Go through time and drink at this historic place right next to Jack London's cabin. Tbh it's tiny inside so you will likely be outside like us. However the inside feels like a ship with the slant. You'll love the shack with brewskees. It's pretty good. I would say 7.5/10
Tried to go to this bar, but they’re close at nine
Why go anywhere else.
Racist and abusive staff that shouts at customers for no apparent reason. Avoid at all costs

The bartender/owner turned out to be very impolite from the time we entered the bar, even getting extremely racist by the time we left. He was insulting me and my friends (mosty europeans) and cursing us outside after the bar closed for no discernible reason. Very sad for a guy who clearly masters his craft, the historical significance of the bar, and its cool vibes.

Nice little spot with great history. Some folks did not appear to like the rules, but they also could go somewhere else.

A great find! Unique, very small bar. Lots to take in. No food, Jerky available. Outdoor seats available also. No children - even outside.

Every visit to Oakland should include a stop at Heinold’s. Enjoy the sun on their patio or get historic and drink in the bar proper. Their beer menu has improved since my last visit.

Super cool spot with a great story. Bar tenders all know how to make great classic cocktails. Nice spacious patio provides addition space to the small interior of the bar room. Highly recommend stopping by for an old-fashioned and a unique experience.

It is a place that I did not know before starting my trip to San Francisco. After reading about that place, we took the car and went to visit it. Once they have visited it, they will want to return considering the number of years it has been in operation.
