50 Best Bars near Rodeo

“Very beautiful atmosphere lovely people! Pool table for tournaments and fun, cards as well. Serves wine and beer, smoking outside with seating, also bar cat comes around here and there and I think it's the best. Will most definitely come more often! I give this place five stars.“

“Totally worth the drive to fish and see Barbara when they open for lunch.. Barbara is totally awesome. Cash only don't worry. There is ATM in the back. Large food and alcohol selection. We had no problems finding a seat on a Saturday afternoon. Plenty of amazing outside seating looking at the lake. Side note my friend comes here occasionally and fishes on the straight. He took me here today and we almost caught a Sturgeon together.“

“Super chill place that’s cozy and serves amazing nibbles and wine without being pretentious or exclusive. Can’t speak to mingling possibilities (whether you’ll go home with someone new) but it is a hangout stand-out, with stellar service. My new fav place north of Gourmet Ghetto“

“My wife and I went there for the first time for dinner and we ate in the main dining room which is only 3 tables! It was dark and moody with excellent jazzy Christmas music. Our server, Denzel, was the right amount of attentive, the food was super tasty and well prepared. We will be back. We want to definitely try the weekend brunch.“

“I love this bar,! it’s a classic dive bar with decor of top notch classic musicians hanging on walls. The atmosphere is comfortable and the bartenders are so attentive and know their stuff (drinks) what’s really cool is they introduce an eclectic stream of good live music groups. The owners are also top notch friendly classic woman who look amazing!“

“This was my first time dining there. Definitely not my last. First class atmosphere, Customer Service and food. I see other items on the menu I want to try. And the best part is the locale. I only live 2.5 miles away from a top notch dining venue on the water. Fantastic!!“

“I didn't have any food, so I went here on a Friday night to meet a friend. I had never been to cricket before and now I wanna go back. This bar Toots is a big part of why I wanna go back, it's an amazingly cool dive bar with a back room stage for live music. Last night when I went it was a punk rock band and they were really good. The crowd as you might imagine was colorful and surprisingly diverse. The bar keep was friendly and on it so my drink was never empty, they had a really good porter on tap and it was always filled completely to the rim where you have to sip the top down just to pick it up. I wish I had stayed longer to see how the scene goes, my feeling is it's a great place to hangout on a Friday night, and if you happen to get bored there's like another bar a block or so away you can go between. I saw several small groups of peeps just hanging out together up n down the main drag. Parking might be an issue so either go early or Uber. I loved it!“

“First time going in and the place is bigger than it looks outside. The bartenders are super nice and welcoming. Mostly locals that frequents the place. Seems everyone know each other. Very laid back with outdoor area for pingpong or card games to dominoes and 5 dice, wow! Inside is a jukebox, a dart board game. Over by the corner they have video games. 1 pinball and 1 bowling game. If your not interested with the games they provide, I can almost garantee that someone there will find you and engage in a long but good conversation. The walls and ceiling is draped with one dollar bills all over inside. Interesting to see and count. I'd say there's about 2356 dollars in one dollar bills but not up for the taking.“

“Nu-Rays is a town icon with history. It's the kind of bar locals visit frequently and share stories at great prices on beverages! If you're looking for low lights, friendly bar tenders, and great prices this is your kind of bar. 🥃🍺🍸🍹

Parking: First come first served metered street parking and a few lots with meters.“

“Food and service was great! Loved the bar service and our drinks were so good. However, we overheard the long haired male employee, I think his name was West, speaking negatively about a group of people sitting on the couch throughout the night. He seemed to be upset about where they were sitting. Kinda ruined our vibe but we had a good time and we'll be back.“

“It was a great positive experience and true local hidden gem! Come say hi to the owner Ann, tell her I sent you.“

“Hi from Kristiansand,Norway. My sister Elynn took me there a few years ago and every time I come to visit it's a must to go see Moe and some of the friends there that I have gotten to know. Was there February 2025. Greets from Norway.“

“Never found a place with better people running it“

“What is there to say? This place is the best: drink quality, the fun atmosphere, pricing, the variety, and awesome bartending!We've had every type of drink and it's always been knocked out of the park!"A must try" if you're in the area.Tip your bartenders! ?“

“great place to hang out and play pool.“

“This is a relaxing place to enjoy stimulating conversation and a great cocktail after work. The atmosphere is inviting and plus the bartenders are friendly and make excellent drinks.“

“I don't really like bars for the most part, but this place has a great music scene!

I came to support a friend at the jam, Ceasar Myles and the Dreaded Truth reggae band came from the SF peninsula, and the next thing you know we had a Saturday night gig.

Now they want us back...

So much for staying out of bars.

The family atmosphere on the Tuesday night jams is amazing, I really can't say anything bad about the place.

As a musician, getting a consistent warm welcome and a plate of food is over the top for me.

I have never been treated so well at a club gig, it's like being the headliner at a festival, such nice people there!“

“Lama Bar in El Cerrito is a gem! Exceptional service, great DJ vibes, and a cozy patio – it’s the perfect spot to unwind. Plus, the added bonus of billiards adds to the fun. Big thanks for the wonderful service; it’s definitely the go-to place for hanging out with friends!“

“Reading these reviews, the good ones, bring back wonderful memories of the past. I was there most Friday afternoon/evenings from 90 to 93 when stationed at CSTSC Mare Island as an instructor. Great to see this place still in business. Great people then and apparently now.“

“Heck ya!! What a fabulous dining experience! It’s a cozy restaurant in downtown Martinez. Definitely recommend making reservation as this place can be super packed esp. during live music hours. Everything we ordered, from their daily specials, to locally sourced ingredients give you a farm to table kind of dining venture. The house cocktails are refreshing-ly good. If you have a sweet tooth, their in-house desserts to finish off your meal-perfect amount of sweetness! Can’t wait to be back for more!“

“A small but friendly place, respectful and friendly security, it is a very good place to meet with a small group of friends, especially for the advantage of being so close and spending time having a drink, dancing, chatting, in short, a fun night without have to go far“

“Fun place Ces ces is dope“

“Wide variety of Peruvian treats especially fried plantains and pisco chilcanos“

“Nice place to hang out and watch some live music. Was there to play the club with my band Midnight Sinfini. The sound system wasn't high tech so the sound could have been better but was a really fun place to play a show. I would consider playing here again.“

“The food is delicious I’ve had almost everything on the menu in the past year that they’ve been open. Two of my favorites are the chicken sandwich & the deep fried Oreo dessert. The staff are all so friendly & welcoming. The bartenders make the best cocktails & are always coming up with new yummy drinks to try. The location has an amazing outdoor patio perfect for the beautiful martinez weather along the creek.
Highly remind you giving it a try.“

“Spectacular !! Super fun. Great food. Bend over backwards to make sure your happy service. Love this place. Just not quite sure what to call it. Baxter’s - The Speakeasy - or The Office. Whatever they’re calling themselves, they’re great.Try the scallops . . . and the bread pudding.“

“Saved the night on a last minute reservation for homecoming. I called and they were super friendly and quickly set up for the group. Everything went so smoothly, the kids loved the food and environment! Waitress was the best. thank you!!!!“

Patrons friendly as well make you feel at home! Not to mention the drinks have better prices than any bar in town

Parking: There’s always parking and if there’s not can always park in the street !“

“Food was really good. The sliders, tacos, salad, ahi bowl, and drinks were all delicious. Even the Brussel sprouts were great.
The service was pretty slow. It was a Tuesday night, and there were a max of 10 tables with people. There’s no reason it should take 20min for a drink.“

“I love this pizza spot. Food, cocktails and atmosphere are all great.

The crust on their pizza really sets them apart. It is a corn meal crust and gives a great crunch.

I recommend coming here for date night or as a casual catch-up with friends. They also have a wonderful lunch and happy hour menu.“

“Amazing place. Amazing people. I was staying in the area and wanted to go to a good local bar. Everyone I met there were friendly and chatty. The bartenders were awesome to. I had a really great time here and I hope to stay in the area again soon to go back, if you’re in a motel close. Check this place out!“
