The Loaded Hog

Not a bad place to grab a game of pool. It’s pretty much your local biker bar.

I came here right before they closed and wow I never felt, so uncomfortable coming here haha. This was a straight up dive bar. A whole lot of bikers. I came here with a co-​worker in our suites after work and boy I thought we were going to get beat up, but this place was cool though. Roomy in the inside and hard core music playing in the background. Bartenders were nice and drinks were on the cheap side. Too bad they closed to make room for that sports store, but I wished I came here a lot before they closed.

SO this is it for The Loaded Hog!!! been here every time I am in town and it is to bad that they want to put DICKS sporting goods here and also take out the Cine’Arts next door.
Had some real good times here, tailgated with the crew at our RAIDERS game a year or so ago, lingerie nights and just having shot with the bartenders. will be there tonight to say goodbye!!! going to be fun

DIVE BAR DIVINITY
If you haven’t been to this bar you have less than a week to get here and enjoy the experience. Their last day is the 27^th. Even though we don’t frequent this place, I’ve been here many times. Even worked one night selling raffle tickets (hehe) many years ago.
Tucked away in the Shopping Center by the Dome, they won’t survive the new plaza ownership and it seems they too will be demolished to make room for dicks. Dick’s Sporting Goods, that is. It’s hard to say goodbye to fun places like this but I guarantee the good bye party will be worth attending. We’ll probably try to show up sometime Saturday and see what’s going on.
Farewells are best done in person — so make an appearance!

We went in there to have a quick drink before catching «Django Unchained» and I was very happy with the discovery. Never been to the bar, the movie theatre or that particular area of Pleasant Hill really… but I will be returning. The bartendress was welcoming, poured a nice big helping of Wild Turkey and created a fancy mixed drink for me lady called the «Jackie O», even gave her the excess on the side like it was a milkshake. We shall return. I like the local bars where the bartenders and the locals are warm as opposed to the «this is our place» kind of vibe.

All the bartenders are super cool here. It’s a laid back place with a pool table and a good selection of tunes. On any occasion you will find the down to earth owners hanging out with the crowd. My favorite place in P Hill to chill!

So excited that my favorite bartender (Ms. Fanucchi) has re-​surfaced at The Loaded Hog. I have been in The Loaded Hog before and had not done a review because it frankly did not dawn on me… but now that I know she is there a couple of nights a week… game on!
The Loaded Hog is definitely gives you the vibe of the «locals hangout» but you don’t have to be a local to enjoy yourself. And you also don’t have to gussy yourself up to have a beer, strike up a conversation or play some pool. The perfect spot to spend an evening out with friends after dinner (or a movie) or to make new friends. I am headed over there tonight!

I actually was really impressed with this place. A very chill atmosphere and the nicest female bartender ever. She is young and great to have drunken conversations with! the bar itself is chill, and there is a pool table and music box thingy.

I went to The Loaded Hog last night looking for a good neighborhood bar. What I found was the rudest barmaid I have ever seen. I pulled out my credit card to start a tab and was told, «Cash only, there’s a bank on the corner» and she walked away. I will never spend a nickel in this establishment, and I recommend you shouldn’t either.

Awesome and strange little dive bar. It’s very popular with locals and bikers. The bartenders are half the reason I go there. They are very spunky, friendly and cute. There is always some good rock and country playing on the juke box. It’s a little hit and miss when it comes to whether there are lots of people there or not.

Loaded Hog.
Perfect name!
There’s some drunk oinkers in here. Suburban biker bar of nicotine addicted ex-​meth heads nestled next to the movie theaters.
If you wondered if Pleasant Hill had any trailer trash, start your survey here. More people are outside smoking at any given time than inside drinking.
Juke box and pay pool table available.

The Loaded Hog is a Dive Bar among Dive Bars. The only thing really missing is a Taco Truck. It’s next to CineArts, and besides the movie house and marks a dividing line where the nearby ticky – tacky (and traffic impaired) stops. This place also reminds me of a Canadian friend’s advice (after walking into many Northern bars) that you might always want to keep your back to the wall when you come into places like this.
But this is Pleasant Hill and it’s a OK place once you muster the courage to walk through the door (and past the smokers). The Loaded Hog has a decent jukebox, a pool table, lots of colorful customers, and is a good place to relax with a beer either before or after the show.

I love this place — a lovely dive with an awesome jukebox, decent TVs, and next to a movie theater that shows movies that likely are improved with a drink or two!
People like Jessica P don’t get it — Its a dive bar. Sorry if it wasn’t the Walnut Creek yacht club — there might be an annoying old drunk or two in a biker bar attached to the independent movie theater. Don’t rack the place over the coals because you can’t handle a dive bar.

This bar is pretty ridiculous! It’s a local dive bar next to the old Dome theater (now Cine Arts) in a strip mall. It’s dark and dingy. There’s an odd mix of people here that are definitely regulars. I’ve been here twice, but years apart; however, it didn’t seem much different.
There’s a decent amount of floor space, but few places to sit. It’s okay; I don’t think this place gets crowded, ever. There’s a pool table and a stripper pole. I actually saw the stripper pole come into use when this old biker guy with long white hair (definitely a regular), went to the jukebox, put on his jam and took to the pole! His jam of choice? Classical music! He whipped his hair around, spun around, and worked that pole to the crescendo. He was in his own world and loving life! My friends had a fantastic time enjoying his performance. My friend even filmed it! I think it exists on youtube somewhere!
This bar is fun for some laughs or perhaps some woes. I feel like it’s the type of bar where regulars stop in for a drink before/​after work. The first time I went here, the bartender was super nice and barrel of fun. I think her name was Amber, but I don’t think she works there anymore. The second time I went there, years later, the bartender wasn’t as friendly and the atmosphere seemed a little more aggravated than jovial.

This place is cool. Perfect for a beer with a friend, or a quick game of pool. I remember going to the movies with my uncle back in the day he used to make us go in the back to play arcade games while he had a couple pops before taking us into the movie theater next door, hilarious. Anyways, this place is cool. It needs more people and friendlier bartenders. The tall blonde with glasses was nice when we walked in, the other one that replaced her was mute, whatever, we were there for the drinks and pool. The jukebox was stuck on 107.7 the bone for all I knew, or some old dude just really liked Bob Segar, and Steve Miller Band. This place could be really cool with the right people. They had several flat screen tv’s which would be cool to watch a game or two on.

Holy Awful. I gave them one star (ok, you can’t give 0) because I was stupid enough to go inside. I called my boyfriend to tell him about my experience and before I could get past «You know that weird bar by the Dome theaters…» He cut me off with «Why the hell would you go there?!»
Why indeed.
2 girlfriends and myself decided after a particularly troublesome viewing at the movies nearby, that we could use a drink. Enter the quite conveinently located Loaded Hog. Walking through the door is like walking into a weird ass backward, local bar at which outsiders are not welcome. Too bad we didn’t realize this until after we had ordered. We walked up to the bar and this man sitting there just stared — then motioned for us to stand there to order. Thanks, I think? The bartender asks for ID’s. We produce them and she pours my drink. I put my card on the bar. She curtly says” There’s an ATM over there, (to my girlfriend) what do you want?” While waiting for a final tab so we don’t all have to pay the ATM fee, we were pretty much harassed by one of the usuals.
Normally a little bar harassment from a drunk guy (did I mention it was 2pm?) is not a huge deal, but this guy was hammered. He kept saying that we would get nothing until we showed him our ID’s because he was a bouncer. Cool dude, I already showed it to the bartender and she’s the one with the alcohol so kick rocks. Makes sense why neither of the bartenders said anything, as one of them playfully grabbed his ear and frenched him over the bar. Yuck.
We got our drinks, got our total and put a $ 20 on the bar — then waited. And waited. After a solid 5 minutes and both bartenders looking at my and ignoring me, I took my $ 20 and got a small table as far away as possible. We decided to DOWN our drinks and get the hell out of there before they locked the doors and took us into some weird, Texas Chainsaw situation. It was awful. Finally the bartender came to collect her dues and we pounded our drinks. As we left, I checked over my shoulder to make sure we didn’t leave anything and every person in the bar was staring — girls: «get the hell out and don’t come back, these are our nasty drunk crackhead dudes» /​guys: «get the hell back here and don’t ever leave… not that we’ll let you leave anyway»
I stubbed my toe on a crackrock on the way out too.
Boooooooo. But maybe you can use one of their nasty ass sweatshirts with a hog that has stubbley testicles on it!
*Shrugs*

my friends: there’s a bar in this plaza? me: yep. I like how I’ve always passed up this bar as a kid wondering what goes on there? haha. My friends & I wanted to watch a movie & before the movie started, we came here. Nice bartenders, cheap, small, interesting people that wear cow boy hats & place dice. But harmless.

I have only been here in the afternoon not late night. Its nice and quiet and you can sit at the bar watch some TV. talk to the bartender, just chill.
Their juke box is the new fangled ITunes like one and had almost every song that you could think of. The only song I couldn’t find was a Velvet Underground song, but other than that I got to pick some nice tunes.
I’m not a bar fan usually but we really like coming here in the day time to have a nice drink.
We even saw two older ladies come in and have some shots before they went and saw a movie next door. I think I saw my future in them.
Oh, and I’m pissed I have yet to see the stripper pole. Someone needs to point it out next time.

We had a blast in here on Saturday night!
A beautiful bartender kept the drinks flowing there were a couple friendly folks sitting around the bar and the music was blaring — i love nickelback!
I *think* this is a biker bar of sorts — i’m just not sure if its club specific.
Its a great place to come unwind and wet your whistle!
Extra star for the stripper pole, bitches!

Looking for a place where Alice in Chains and Danzig are jukebox staples? Do you like a bar where drinks are poured stiff, where wanna be tough guys with popped collars are NOT?
Look no further, this bar is for you.
