Honestly, I love this local spot so much. Great drinks, amazing happy hour & friendly staff. What else do you need? The hibiscus margarita & the sangria have been my regulars as of late, but excited to explore the menu more on future visits! Ambiance is cozy & location allows for plenty of before or after activities; after happy hour we caught a movie at the Grand Lake Theater (literally just a few steps away!)--made for a perfect date night.

Perfect for drinks on a Sunday on Grand Avenue.

Always a pleasure coming here! Everyone is really chill and the vibes are always immaculate! The only bar I know to hold game nights on Wednesdays as well! You can go in for a nice beer or cocktail and play Mario or smash. I always tell my best mates of this spot.

Super strong drinks. Came here on a rainy day.

Nice place to just hang out and relax. The girl behind the bar wasn't the most knowledgeable when it came to cocktails (put the bitters that were supposed to go into my old fashioned into my husband's girly drink haha... instant new cocktail creation), but she did her best and was friendly and funny. The place was quite empty when we stopped by on a weekday around 7, but filled fast and the crowd was generally nice. Music very 80s/90s, right up our alley.

Sorry but NO. Almost always very slow and Djs are out, this place is BORING. Go if you have absolutely no other option and it's close to you.

I was looking to taste some peanut butter whiskey,but I got one even better. VAN Goghs PB and and whiskey was amazing mixed with cranberry juice. The bartender lady was awesome! I visited Oakland a few weeks ago to see my old college friend and she was able to make new memories for us!

Came here on a weeknight around 10pm and the place had maybe 8 people. Bartender never acknowledged we came in and after about 20 min of watching a couple guys play video games on one of the tvs we left. No comment on the drink as we never got any service. Interesting offers were made to us by other guests at the bathroom. If you are into that this might be a place to try. Might have been an off night. Likely will not return as there are a lot of cool bars in this area.

I've lived in Oakland a long time! This place used to be the Club Manhattan and The Lucky Lounge now the Libertine!
Really good cocktails and they have a spacious parklette outside for outdoor seating! It's on the same area as a bunch of good restaurants and other bars so you can bop around the block too.

Lovely little seaside bar with a sunset view and an unbeatable beer collection on tap.

The music is such a great mix! Spacious, clean place! The drinks were so-so, usually not strong enough but not too bad. Bartender was kind, and hard working! Would come back.

Thanks Ronnie for a mellow and good time. Watermelon is... complicated, thanks though

First time here The music drew us in We walked in and we were carded lol The bar/venue is clean and nicely decorated for Xmas The bartender and bouncer/bar back man were very friendly and accommodating People were at the bar watching the Warrior game There are a few TVs in side The crowd was chill no bad vibes Everyone was friendly This was not a planned visit but it was a good one Street parking only Credit cards accepted
