Cafe Van Kleef knows what they do - greyhounds! - and they do it well. Very few options for beer/wine, but you're here for their famous greyhounds, and so is the rest of the crowd. Relaxed vibe inside, even when packed, and it's an eclectic collection on the walls that's fun to peruse.
Really light and cozy ambience for hanging with a group of friends. Definitely recommend the house special cocktail with Gin.
I hate spots that don’t have accurate hours. Travel far af to come to a spot that says open.
Disappointed!!! Was there last night and the female bartender was on a bad one. She got mad because we asked for our drink???!!! And proceeded to ask the bouncers to kick us out! She didn’t have anything nice to say…Super rude and discriminatory. The bouncers were even worse! Everyone around was as confused as we were…we couldn’t figure out what ticked her off! Sad disappointing experience! Do not recommend!!!
Fabulous dive bar in downtown Oakland, famous for its squeezed-fresh pink grapefruit Greyhounds. Indoor and outdoor seating. Live music.
Great place! The statue out front is the real mvp
