Bar None

My question is, are you patch friendly or are you a bar that bans patched mc clubs? If you are patch friendly, I’ll add you to my list of «patch friendly bars» for motorcycle clubs to be able to go for drinks. Or do you belong on my «bars to ban» list?

So… If you don’t know about this this place, good

So I just moved to town and the first order of business was figuring out my neighborhood watering hole. Found this little joint tucked behind Safeway. If you didn’t specifically look it up, you wouldn’t know it was here. I was worried my über driver might not be able to locate it. anyways, its your standard issue bar, no kitchen but they do have hot dogs and chips. Ive never seen it especially crowded but have noticed on sunday, theres more people than on like Thursday or friday. maybe its cuz of football. The shots the pour are enormous. theyre damn near like a rocks glass full off booze. a cazadores and bud light set me back like $ 9. so basically for $ 30 you can walk out feeling yourself. nice little jukebox, no live music making my ears hurt,. This place is the truth.

Small bar hidden away in Pinole. Affordable drinks but the services left much to be desired. Certainly is a dive bar. Pool is nice but requires a long wait. Certainly draws the Pinole crowd.

Small bar hidden on the far end next to safeway.
Came here while ago and actually enjoyed the vibe. Good mix drinks and good music! This bar has 2 pool tables, just be careful cause police so drive around.

Really nice neighborhood bar. Community feel. Strong, cheap drinks. Bartender Bonnie is friendly and awesome.
A little hard to find. It’s behind and to the left of Safeway, in a hidden strip mall. Happy to have spent an evening here!

I love this place. It’s like another home to me. Great people. Awesome bar tenders and a sweet dj make for a great night !!

So my brother in law took me here after dinner recently and for a dive we had a good time there. The bartender was nice and we strick up a conversation with a woman sitting next to us. Everyone in the place was friendly. I think the jukebox was loaded with mostly country music but that was ok with us. If you are looking for a place to chill with some of the locals it’s worth giving a shot.

It’s a dive? Yes
It’s a bar? Yes
Pool tables? Yes
Small? Yes
Cheap drinks? Ridiculously Cheap
Its a dive bar, very small, you don’t go in there with all your girlfrans type bar. But really to grab a few friends, have a couple drinks and venture off. They have their locals and really if you’re nice to them they won’t cause no trouble. The prices are ridiculously cheap so that’s a good reason to come back. And on a side note it could be a hard place to find.

It’s a tiny dive.
I think if you bring your own crowd with you you’ll be ok. But it’s so small that if it’s just you and another person then you be at the mercy of whatever else is going on there that night.
There was Karaōke the night we stopped by… our crowd was younger and «ethnic» so as I looked around and took it all in I realized that if it wasn’t for us the place would be pretty much empty except for a few pickled regulars and alot less ‘diversity’.
The bartender was sweet.

The folks that gave place a bad review MUST have attitudes. I dropped in about a month ago for live music and found everyone to be super friendly. The owner often has bar-​b-​ques & live music. I have never seen trouble or attitudes here, just friendly people. I don’t even drink but have soda or coffee when I go and have a great time. It will even be better when they finally move across the lot and have 2 – 3 times as much room…

This place is OK.
It is a country bar, for sure, but they have some juke box diversity as well.
The drinks are resonably priced and I argue that they have the nicest pools tables in the El Sobrante /​Pinole area.
Some of the locals are real friendly too.

I can make myself comfortable in a pretty seedy joint, but just cant quite in this dive. Wow this place sucks. It’s a tiny bar but does have pool. It’s across a parking lot from China Delights, so I’ve ordered food to go, and then walked over for a drink to kill some time, a few times. Just cant bring myself to do it anymore though. Everyone is so unfriendly and just seems to be waiting for you to leave so they can pick back up where they left off.
