50 Best Bars near San Ramon

“Outstanding tasty and unusual Indian Fare. The vegetarian dishes were exceptional (except cauliflower, which was average). Service was wonderful and Jacob was particularly helpful. Amongst the best Indian we have had in the east bay. Slightly noisy“

“We love Primavera! I had the Salmon Dill entree and shared a Caesar salad with my husband. Plenty of salad for two. My husband had the Veal special, he said it was good. Very busy on a Friday night but we had reservations. Our server was very attentive. Good place for dine in or takeout.“

“We love these crowd... hands down they got my five starts“

“The seats are super comfortable recliners, and you can order food and drinks from the comfort of your seats when watching the movie.“

“Great place to meet and grab a drink 🍸“

“This is a five star review from someone who doesn’t even like beer. The bartenders here are either very good at what they do or performing some kind of sorcery, but somehow they always manage to find something that I enjoy!

The beer selection on tap and in the fridge is super broad, really high quality, and constantly changing; the atmosphere is laid back; you can bring your own food in; and dogs are allowed! Their regular trivia nights and other events are always a good time as well.

Best taproom in the east bay🍻“

“We went to an outdoor music and it was great. The workers were very nice. The company was great. I also met new people.“

“Always a great time!! Selena is the best in the Bay and DjJoe and Hector Play the best Jams!!!!“

“Great spot. Trivia Night on Wednesday’s are a must.“

“A perfect spot in Dublin for a casual hangout with friends or family. The place offers a great selection of beers worth trying, creating a relaxed and friendly vibe. The only drawback is the limited food options, but you’re welcome to bring your own, which adds to the laid-back experience. Overall, it’s a fun and comfortable place to unwind and enjoy your weekend. Highly recommended for anyone looking to relax and socialize.“

“Great place. Formerly known as the IRON HORSE.“

“I discovered this great gem of a bar during the final Hayward B street block party of the season! The owner was very friendly & the bar tender was amazing! She was working so hard because it was super busy. I ordered the Lemon Pepper Chicken wings & they were the best I'd ever had. YUM!! They took awhile to come but as I said they were super busy at the time, but they were well worth the wait. Come on down to Blue Crown Bar & Bistro!!“

“Don't drink, so I ordered a diet Soda. The bartender warned me that he didn't know who's diet it was but that it wasn't that good. He was being nice to what ever it was I had. Disgusting,Horrible diet soda. Everything else was great. Except a Niners glass....Probably because of my Seahawks Shirt.“

“It’s a small place but that is what I really liked. Great service and cozy atmosphere. The beer quality was great and I got a chance to try a variety of beers before getting one I liked the best. Just the experience I was looking for. Highly recommended. You must try it.“

“Best sports bar in downtown Pleasanton! Upscale bar food and great beers on tap. Staff and owners are amazing! My favorite local hangout!!!“

“line dancing lessins & DJ w/ Rhonda“

“This is my favorite bar in the Bay Area. Love the chill vibes, and love the drinks even more. Lightweights beware, some of the cocktails are sneaky strong...

My only nitpick is that good parking options are limited- there are metered street spaces across the street, otherwise the nearest Walnut Creek garage is a five minute walk away. Avoid the neighboring garages as those cost an arm and a leg.“

“Great food friendly staffs nice variety menu“

“Good beer. Good food. Friendly staff. They can get a bit slow when busy, but overall we had a good experience. Way more outdoor seating than indoor so it’s a pretty laid back vibe if you have your kids. The Confused Therapist is even more dangerous than the original with a smoother finish. Be careful.“

“This place was awesome !!“

“Everybody is just hanging out having a good time! No drama!“

“Is a great lounge to bring your crew and your friends to have a great time with amazing bartenders and Live DJs playing all your favorite music !!“

“Awesome diverse crowd of real people my cheers where everyone knows my name and their always glad I came last week the king of carloans Mike Fraga sold as many cars from Sharades as kblx great sports and great pool players recommended to everyone“

“We meet our sister in law in Pleasanton often and found this spot right kn the Main Street. Great cocktails, make specifically to my tastes, their Beet Salad and Fish tacos were delicious and the chicken sandwich was flavorful. Had a lovely lunch and will for sure come again.“

“Amazing whiskey selection and great food!“

“10/10 one of the best experience we've had! Personal cocktail making class for the two of us. Charlie was so kind and had such a great way with us. We got a charcuterie board in the middle of our class which really added to the experience. We would really recommend this to everyone. Top experience“

“Lit lit lit. The food was delicious. The music was perfect for the occasion. Seriously, Dj Clo Money is the best!I gave the service a 4 because when we went to the Leo party there was only one bar tender, so the service was a bit delayed. We also ordered hookah. I would’ve appreciated more attentive service.“

“Easy chill vibe.

4 pool tables (1.00 / 4 quarters) per play) Taco truck outside

When ordering straight or mixed drinks, they pour heavy.

California cider 7.00 (tap), double honey Tennessee whiskey 14.00

Karaoke in-between to darts and a single pinball machine.

Older crowd, mid 30s up.

Monday night Feb 10.

UFC and games on the screens.“

“Had a great time. Other bars were closing at 9pm on a Sunday and these guys were open until 2. I've been going here for years and have never had a bad experience. Tucked away in a parking lot off of the main street. Turn down sos drive and left into the parking lot halfway down the hill, and you'll find it.“

“Si buscas una experiencia auténtica de la cocina mexicana, no puedes dejar de visitar **Cielito** en Denville, California. Este restaurante se destaca por ofrecer una variedad de platillos mexicanos elaborados con ingredientes de la más alta calidad. Además, el servicio es excepcional, lo que hace que cada visita sea especial. Y no olvides probar su selección de bebidas, ¡son simplemente deliciosas! Sin duda, un lugar que vale la pena conocer. ¡Espero que lo disfruten!“

“I had a takeout pizza from this restaurant last night first of all the customer service was absolutely excellent. The person that answered the phone had a really pleasant customer focused manner , nothing was too much trouble and he was so polite. The pizza was absolutely amazing , I hate anything that is too heavy and it was so light and lovely , the ingredients tasted extremely fresh , I would 100% recommend this place based upon my first experience and I will be back thanks so much 🥰“

“This place was the single redeeming thing in the area. I got stuck in this commercial cesspool for four and a half hours and wandered around for 3 of them trying to find decent food worth the price or some store that wasn't marked up for garbage. No dice. Finally found this place tucked away, so thankful. Had a couple drinks and chatted with old locals. Definitely support this place. In general I'll be avoiding the area but if I ever find myself there again I'll definitely go in for a drink and to get a brake from the depressing retail area outside.“

“The steak salad was amazing! Drinks were delicious, live music, great service. Stayed for the line dancing class at 9pm and that was a blast. My first time there and I loved it.“

“I live in the area and usually come out on average once a month. There are lots of different types of shows, my favorite being the disco, 80s, and classic rock nights. There is a great taco truck that sells the most delicious steak and birria tacos ever. As a woman I always feel safe and comfortable here knowing there are plenty of security and workers always around to help if ever needed. I'll be celebrating my Birthday here in March and cannot wait! If you like live music, or live near by, definitely check it out!“

“Freshest seafood with great service.“

“Our new favorite Sushi place. Have been here a few times and never been disappointed. Service is excellent and in comparison to our previous regular which is nearby, we found this is to be less expensive, better tasting and generous portions. Definitely a must try if you want to deviate from your regular for a change.“

“Very Nice Hazy IPA ! Good fish Tacos. Wonderful salad.“

“Excelente lugar, la comida deliciosa 100% recomendado.“

“Best tonkatsu ramen you’ll find in the Tri-Valley!“

“Yummy food, good service and nice atmosphere.“

“I ordered ahead and I got the stuffed pepperoni and mushroom. Very quick and easy process to order online. The pizza was amazing as usual. Better than any pizza in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island. The service was quick, friendly and courteous. It's been a long time and I don't think the prices have changed much.“

“We had an event after a memorial service at Sidetrack and can’t say enough good things. Todd and everyone that helped us were amazing. The food (big kudos on the cauliflower), the atmosphere and service was incredible. We were in the Angela Patio on a rainy night and the patio was cozy with the heaters and the perfect place to have a special event. Thank you Todd.. everyone was so kind and you all took such great care of our family! I would recommend you to everyone.“

“This spot in Danville has good music that keeps the place moving without trying too hard. The crowd feels like real people who are there to enjoy the night rather than show off. Drinks are reasonably priced, so it is easy to settle in and stay for a while. The atmosphere is relaxed and a little noisy in a fun way, with bands that make the room feel alive. It is the kind of place where you can have a simple night out, listen to solid music, talk to friendly folks, and feel comfortable from the moment you walk in.“

“Wonderful dinner experience with wonderful friends“

“Grew up nearby, The Roundup is the oldest bar I remember, could be the oldest bar in Lafayette, or one of at least. Great to see family and friends at this fine establishment“

“Randomly stumbled upon Chai Thai Noodle in Hayward and I am so glad we did. From the very first bite, we were completely blown away by how authentic and incredibly flavorful every single entrée was. You can truly taste the care, quality, and tradition in the food — nothing felt rushed or generic.

We’re still talking about how good the meal was and already planning our next visit because there are so many dishes we want to try. On top of the amazing food, the service was exceptional — friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, which made the entire experience even better.

This place is a hidden gem and easily one of the best Thai meals we’ve had in the area. Highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic, comforting, and delicious Thai food. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Came through to Pleasanton to visit my German cousin and we stumbled across this nice little Austrian restaurant. He hadn’t been to downtown in a while and this was a nice surprise for him as he didn’t know this place existed. The inside was nicely decorated and was a good looking bar. The seating was a little bit crammed as there were a lot of small tables inside. The food was on point and really hit home. I especially liked the spicy bratwurst as it was a lot spicier than I was expecting for a European style sausage. It was a pleasant surprise. What was strange to us was both servers available did not seem to comprehend what we were ordering each time. We pronounced the food and beer names as they would be in German and they had no clue what we were referring to until we pointed. One even asked us if we were sure the restaurant had the item we requested even though we were literally reading off the menu. It seems like the staff could use some additional refresher training. Other than that, it was a cool spot for some Austrian/German food and drinks. We’ll be sure to visit again.“

“Absolutely LOVE Fat Maddie’s, which is why we’re here a couple times a month. Happy Hour is extra amazing with great food and drinks on their HH menu. Thank you to Damien and the rest of the top notch staff!“
