No food available and no beers on tap working at 6pm on a Thursday. Not sure why they were even open.

Updated Review (6 Years Later):
Six years ago, I gave this place 5 stars , it used to be my favorite spot. Unfortunately, after the recent ownership change, it’s turned into a cheap, third-class lounge that’s completely lost its original vibe. They destroyed the beautiful back bar and replaced it with one of the ugliest designs imaginable. I’m genuinely sad to see how they ruined such a great atmosphere. “And horrible musics “

— Old Review:
I rarely give 5 stars to bars or clubs, but this was my favorite place. Andreas was the coolest person I’ve ever met here — thank you for your wonderful hospitality and service.

All good vibes, except the smell on Bollywood nights. Continental should implement a strict anti-stink policy so if the patrons smell bad, they either have to wear the cologne (provided by bar) at the entrance, or they have to leave. The dance floor becomes unbearable with all the strong pungent sweaty smell 🤢

Old fashion was the perfect drank to sip . Bar tender did great with that one.

Drinks were beautiful and delicious, Kerry really took care of the group and checked in regularly, vibe was relaxed then more pumped. Great space and there's even a private area upstairs and a patio in the back. Will be back!

One of the worst bar ever. They're not only professional also rude enough.

No food menus. Everyone and everything else great!

Banning all Bay Area sports attire is certainly a choice. Enjoy your empty bar. Please move back to Dallas or Seattle, owner.

Despite ownerships reply, Bay Area sports specifically were banned. Non Bay Area was fine (?!). Confirmed by man at the entrance.

Attire for a bar is fine - but this policy is prejudicial and, well, just plain dumb.

I recently did a full evening buyout of the Continental for a corporate happy hour event. We had an incredible experience working with Vee and the team. From start to finish, they were super easy to work with, ensuring a seamless planning process. They provided a wide range of branding opportunities, allowing us to fully customize the experience to match our event theme. They even collaborated with us to create fun, themed cocktails that were a perfect fit for our event. Their attention to detail and commitment to making our vision a reality truly set them apart.

Special shoutout to the amazing taco cart vendor they brought in - delicious food that our guests absolutely loved!

If you're looking for a vendor that’s organized, creative, and genuinely invested in your event’s success, I highly recommend The Continental Bar Lounge & Patio.

Not super busy early in the night, which makes it an ideal place for someone fress off an opening shift looking to decompress. The music is fire and the ambiance is great. There is plenty of seating for a spot that wants to cater to the clubing crowd. The servers are wonderful and friendly. Drinks are priced averagely, and they are strong to boot. You can easily fit a wheelchair through the door and I to the bathrooms.
