Y'All Come Back Saloon Cocktail Bar • $
5321 Hopyard Rd, Pleasanton

“It’s very rare I leave a review for a bar. If ever. But this one is well deserved.

I was staying up the street and had a long couple days, so wanted a chill place to have a drink.

I stumbled upon a fantastic local watering hole, where you can tell the same folks come here, and for good reason. Good ambience, a few bar games, a digital jukebox, reasonable drink prices… but the service is where this place really hooked me.

(Forgive the spelling) Saren was my bartender and made me feel at home. As a career bartender, I can be somewhat hyper-critical of service from a fellow tender. She not only takes the time to talk to you individually, but immediately turns on the fast-paced service when the bar inevitably picks up when the place across the street lets out from an event.

I recommend this bar to anyone whether a group or individuals. There’s enough to do, people to talk to, and the service is second to none. I’ll be sure to book my next stay in the Bay close to here on purpose moving forward.“

Trust me, all the other ones are way over priced even for their “happy hour” prices. I only come here for drinks so I can’t review the food. I highly recommend the golden state margarita and the ambikas grove! Ps happy hour is from 4-6. You’re welcome “

“This was our first visit, and overall, we had a lovely experience. The pasta and pizzas were absolutely delicious, though the bottoms were slightly over-charred when flipped over.

Our server was friendly and attentive — took great care of us and returned in a timely manner to offer an additional drink, which we really appreciated.

One area for improvement would be the initial hospitality — the host came across as rather cold and unwelcoming, which slightly detracted from the otherwise pleasant ambiance.

We especially enjoyed the outdoor seating area at the back — it’s a charming, spacious, quiet, and comfortable setting. Adding some shade would significantly enhance the comfort and make it an ideal spot for a more private and relaxing dining experience.“

“First time going there in person to sit and enjoy the dinner after few years of picking up my order. The food and drinks came as per our choice and extremely fresh. The service and food was exceptional. Went there with my teenage son who's a picky eater and another friend who's the same..both of them were amazed with the flavors and decided that this is their number one choice in Fremont from now on.“
