if you want to do an oakland beer crawl, i did this last weekend for my bday and it was tons of fun.
Linden St Brewery. need to make an apt, but it's hella informal and they're really great there. only make 2 beers, but they're really, really good. http://www.lindenbeer.com/Beer Revolution http://www.beer-revolution.com/ (similar to City Beer on folsom, pretty great)Heinold's First & Last Chance (in jack london) http://www.heinoldsfirstandlastchance.com/. weird, shack like, tilted barThe Trappist http://www.thetrappist.com/. tons of amazing belgian style beers.
for food in the area, there's a vegan soul food place next door to beer rev or chop house or bocanova. all good places

i wish it would just fucking rain so I don't have to wash my car. this mist is mingling with all the filth and making my automobile a thing to recoil from.

I'm down w/a FAP at LAC but I'll have to see my bartenders at 500 or Benders or Attic at some time or they'll kill me serve me weak drinks in future.

Hi sf; I am looking for a kind of 90s sexy bar with perhaps a large aquarium and looks like itd be in a sexy erotic thriller lifeti$e movie with eric roberts or something. A downtempo soundtrack would be amazing too. Does anywhere in SF fit the bill?

nowhere I've been, except maybe the bar at Bimbo's, which I don't think is always open.
― akm, Monday, 9 August 2010 16:44 (thirteen years ago) link
def Bimbo's

Almost certainly. Although I think that whatsisname had a thing there when I was there. The guy that lost to Newsom who liked Pavement

incidentally what the hell was that crazy ass swank restaurant bar that used to be on like, commercial near north beach? it closed at least eight years ago, maybe longer.

matt gonzales who then ran with Nader. he's a nice enough guy. I think SF is ungovernable like the rest of california.

Suck it, losers. Makes your Metreon like like a fucking sandcastle
akm, i live at 34th and Tele. so oakland.. it is genuinely sunny here (after noon) about 90% of the time. no joke. Emeryville sucks shit, it is too near the water to have good weather, I think. also, it is a faketown.

the 500 club might be the most hated bar in my life. fuck those bartenders, fuck the jocks at the bar for calling me names.

yeah, but i wear cut-off t shirts most days. around 6 i put on a sweatshirt. and around 9, a jacket.
the Cyprus Club is what I was trying to remember.

My experiences at the 500 have been pretty civilized.

It has to be mentioned every time the 500 club is brought up, doesn't it?
― Tolaca Luke (admrl), Monday, 9 August 2010 19:28 (thirteen years ago) link
That place makes me think of Sparks. And heartburn
xp it does!
― Fig On A Plate Cart (Alex in SF), Monday, 9 August 2010 19:28 (thirteen years ago) link
Every single time I've been to 500 it was because some other place was too crowded.

Thanks for some of the restaurant ideas listed--My son and I made it to Taqueria Cancun in the Mission, and to Muraccis(Japanese Katsu curry) in the financial district. Both were yummy.

was in san francisco for an hour last friday (ate at hanoi vietnamese place on 19th & taraval) and for a few hours tuesday night (ate at kyoto sushi on van ness & sutter, drank at mcteague's saloon (lame) and then later in the SFO rental car return garage). also, floating on the russian was the nicest ever, plus some people brought boxer doggies in their canoe and the boxer doggies were wearing shoes so they was high-steppin'
