Love coming here for pool. Jonny the bartender, had amazing talks with him. This is an amazing bar, love coming here.
Came on a Thursday. Had an amazing experience. Bartenders name was Jonny. Loved the vibe happy I came here!
This was a fun bar to stop by to watch the Penn State football game and play pool. We ordered a pitcher of Death & Taxes black beer to share which was delicious. It wasn't busy during the time we went but would be a good place to just hang out and grab few beers with friends.
An old Raider fan landed in Contra Costa 25 years ago. Of course Raider games are not televised here. Not many places to watch Raiders games. Today I decided to try visiting an Oakland sports bar to watch the game. George & Walts was the closest to the tunnel so I gave it a shot. The area feels like Berkeley. Street parking is somewhat available. Free on Sunday. There is a heat wave currently. It's hot inside. Summer is almost over; but replace the ceiling fans. They had multiple games on. No sound. The place is well used. The staff and patrons I spoke with were pleasant people. Had a couple hazy drafts and watched the Raiders loose. 49er fans were not too rude. The 510 fan smoking his cigar right outside the open window made the hot atmosphere a little more unpleasant. I'll be back when it's not so hot to watch a game.
Everything the drinks, personnel, food atmosphere, pool tables. I love how everyone interacts with each other.
