FAMOUS OAKLAND BAR with dangerously good Greyhounds… Set yourself a limit or you’ll regret it.

Oakland institution famous for their fresh squeezed greyhounds.

A legend. Walls drenched in freaky oddities, nautical items and collectabilia, transforming the space into an actualized entity. Fresh squeezed greyhounds and live jazz.

Favorite bar downtown Oakland...if I could have decorated it, I would have...ecclectic, pet friendly and go there for fresh cocktails made with fresh grapefruit...

It's an institution and it's fun! Our state's governor, Jerry Brown, used to stop in for a night cap when he was Oakland's mayor.
