The 44 best bars and drinks in Livermore

The inside is kinda small, but the bar and staff are 10/10. We got a white negroni and mule and this is by FAR the best mule I've ever had. Damn I wish I lived closer I want to explore the rest of the menu. Just look at the liquor selection! Please visit this place for me. Grab that mule. Show me a better one, I dare you.

This is one of my favorite places! It is cozy, clean, and always decorated well. The service is always fast and the bartenders are AMAZING!! On the weekend, they have a DJ who plays a wide variety of music to get you dancing! Last night, I just tried their new holiday drink "Snowflake" ❄ It is light, refreshing, and the spices remind you of a cozy Christmas in a cup! Definitely by far my favorite drink next to the Paloma!!! 🤙🌺

Here's another great place that I think deserves high ratings for a lot of reasons! This place is a nice little "speakeasy" type spot right in the thick of downtown... but once you're inside, doesn't feel like it's in the middle of downtown, which i like. Great Location. Great Beers. Great Whiskey/Scotches. Good staff. Hard to go wrong. Looking forward to my next visit.

Cool spot. The rest of this street has lines for seating, this place is somehow mostly empty. Solid beer list mostly consisting of a handful of CA breweries. Bartender was super friendly.

Great spot for whiskey. On Wednesday they have a special for half off any pour priced under 25$. This is great for trying better whiskies without breaking the bank. Be aware, they do not serve food. You can bring in outside food to enjoy.

Excellent beer selection and nice indoor and outdoor ambiance

I have been here few times but my last visit was awesome! They have recently remodeled and it has really nice finishes from floors to ceiling. They rotate beers everyday so you can get your favorites often and they have really great beers on Tap all the times. I was there for Happy hour $2 off was great. They play a lot of live bands so i will be coming back often!

I was looking for good drinks and dessert to end my night- they did not disappoint. The chilly night was no issue with their fire heated tables. Delicious sweets and even better drinks. Everyone was so friendly and they were happy to provide recommendations

We had a great time at Last Word. It was a Wednesday night and it was quiet and we had the most attentive waiter, Camila! The Brussels sprouts and pear and fig salad with goat cheese were delicious!

The former owners divorced, so the chef is now upstairs at Aviation. The new Spanish tapas focus is uneven, some very well executed and others bland and unfocused. The fries are still great. Still among the best cocktails in Livermore but not absolutely top tier like before. Service is not quick but the speakeasy feel means you are probably here with people you want to spend plenty of time with. I hope things tighten up to their former glory. Previously: If you were taken blindfolded into the dim, Edison-bulb interior of Last Word, you could be forgiven for thinking you were in one of the many craft cocktail bars of San Francisco. The cocktail menu is constantly changing (thank goodness they can still make previous favorites like the Cowboy Cosmo) and there is something interesting for everybody, unless what you really want is a cheap drink. Glassware and ice are impeccable. I'm always pleased with the food, which typically feature comfort food given just enough of a twist to make it distinctive. The burger, in particular, is elevated far above fast food, with a loose grind, delicate golden-brown bun, and topped with house-pickled onions and blue cheese. The menu, overall, is much tastier than it needs to be given the quality of the cocktails. It's not cheap, and the service is slow by most standards, especially as they get full, but the product on offer is meant to be savored.

The Last Word is an amazing place to eat the most delicious food and sip on fantastic drinks! The owner is so very kind and attentive. The staff is wonderful and efficient, our favorite server Carly always takes amazing care of us! Can't find a better place in Livermore!

They did a last minute, (one week notice) , catering for a party for us. They did fantastic!! Food was awesome and many compliments from guests. Will definitely use them again.

Came here a couple weeks ago for my birthday for some drinks. Wow...the drinks are so delicious, have very pretty presentation and the service was awesome; Mari took care of us and she was great! It has a really cool vibe and I will definitely return. Highly recommend their take on the French martini (they make theirs with tequila and blackberries) 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Me and some friends got reservations for the RnB Brunch. Our server Carly was great, and the food/drinks were good. The environment and the themed brunch was a lot of fun. A single negative- was due to asking a server, maybe the owner, if he could take our picture he rolled his eyes, then when questioned "oh can you not do that?" He responded "I'm trying to run a business," regardless he took the picture. The negative attitude towards a customer definitely isn't a way to run a business =4/5.

Great patio. Sometimes there is live music which can be really fun. They have a large selection of beers from California, although oddly none from Livermore during our most recent visit or from what many would consider the best breweries in the Bay Area. Seems like they have more selections from newer breweries and the quality is inconsistent. Sometimes you find a great beer, sometimes you’re disappointed. Not sure why they don’t serve Altamont, which is local and quite popular. Maybe it’s a cost thing. On the flip side, it’s fun trying new things. We find the bar staff to be unsmiling and aloof, although not rude. We continue to come back because of the patio and low key vibe. But a friendlier staff would get us to stay longer each visit.

Great place to drink craft beers. Beertenders are nice and let you sample. Tap list is extensive and always changing. Nice variety. Most are $9 for a full pour, but size varies on abv. They also have cans available as well that you can drink there or take to go. They have TVs all around and also some board games. They don't serve food but you can bring your own. Open seating with both indoor and outdoor options. There's a variety of couches, tall tables, normal tables, etc. Bathrooms located outside around the corner. Large shared parking lot that can get filled during busy weekends. Highly recommend for craft beer enthusiasts

They have a long list of beers. 25 and more. The patio is nice. A good spot to relax. There is a big parking lot next to it.

So many beers on tap! Was flipping awesome service too!!! I will be back again and again to try their rotating taps! Server had the perfect recommendations for what I was wanting! Will be back every chance I get!

My favorite place to go for beers in Livermore. They always have events happening, as well as live music on the weekends. Their beer selection is constantly changing, so be sure to check their Instagram page for updates. They often have fun events going on, so be sure to check out their Instagram page to stay up to date.

Tap 25 is the hottest and trendiest beer bar in the entire East Bay — maybe even all of Northern California. Which is saying a lot because I live in San Francisco. The vibes are impeccable and they truly have the best selection of draft & canned beers on rotation. There’s something for everyone! Just ask the bartenders and they will 100% take care of you. There’s plenty of indoor and outdoor seating which is great for any size group. If you’re a WFH person (like me) looking for a change of scenery, it’s the perfect daytime work atmosphere. But it also transitions perfectly into evening — definitely put Tap 25 on the top of your list for pre-going out drinks and / or birthday special event gatherings. It’s super rare to find a place that works so well for both — I cannot recommend this place enough!

A Plenty of beers Highly recommended

The fish and chips were good, but too much grease for my taste. I should have ordered a salad. The onion rings were great and a generous serving. The new collaboration beer Livermoron was great

They have the largest beer can collection on display in the US. Ordered the wings and hummus trio. Bummed they don't have hard liquor. Had the berry cider, and it was good, just not really my thing usually. The wings and hummus were good. The server did a great job. The restrooms were clean.

The staff/service were good and the seating options both inside and outside were nice. The interior has a cool vibe and most outdoor seating has shade. The food was just okay. The fish was overcooked and the veganentrees had fresh ingredients, they just lacked a much needed dressing/sauce.

Great place to have some beers and American food. It’s in livermore downtown with plenty of public parking available. It’s huge place and lots of seating area. They have great beers on tap. Some of the seasonal one were amazing. The food was as usual but I loved the chicken nachos as chicken was charcoal grilled. They have nice desserts though.

Th The food was satisfactory, with a particularly impressive atmosphere and exceptional service. We ordered nachos, which were quite salty due to the sauce, and the jalapeños were not pickled. However, the garlic fries were enjoyable. In terms of beverages, the restaurant boasts an excellent selection of beers, although the cocktail options are limited. I tried their frozen margarita, which was quite good. Overall, it is a pleasant venue to socialize with friends, primarily for its ambiance, rather than the food or drinks.

Delicious Pub food! Extensive beer and wine selections. There is plenty of comfortable bar seating along with indoor outdoor seating in the front and out back. The service is always prompt and friendly.

9.3 When in Livermore this is the go to spot, great food, excellent service and nice vibes. Try the pretzels and dip, my favorite.

Happy to give a great review! Reservations were fast and easy. Location is perfect and parking near by was free. Downtown Livermore is always lovely, but especially on a Saturday night. The seating feels private and is comfortable. The staff was organized, friendly and great at providing a high quality experience. This was our first time and Julia was more than happy to explain everything to us. Food came out quickly and the drinks were well made! Lots of options keep the menu really satisfying for everyone. I know we'll be back and I am glad it went so well! A fun food experience and a really yummy meal! I highly recommend for your next outing or celebration!

Highly recommend! The service is quick and friendly, the food is delicious with plenty of variety in flavors, and the atmosphere is great for families or friends alike! Visited on a monday evening. We arrived at 8:35 and there was no wait! Unfortunately, they stopped serving entrees at 8:45 and would only allow us to order appetizers if we sat on the bar side of the restaurant. Which was a nicer atmosphere, so it worked out! The chicken sliders are a must, as are the waffle fries. Loved the Italian Fontina and the traditional Swiss chalet. The fudge brownie chocolate was amazing, and one portion was enough for three of us. All the portions are very generous! Definitely a must stop in the livermore downtown!

Top-notch service and delicious food more tapas style food in the bar area versus the dining room area. Dining room area is great for a date night with wonderful conversations. Special moments there also spent with my children as they love the chocolate milk in a martini glass drizzled with chocolate! Special treat. Definitely need a picture of that next time we go. Enjoy!

came here 2 times and so far so great! the waitress we had one time was super nice! her name was layla i’m pretty sure but anyways she was super nice. and i love how you just pay like $16 for the cheese or chocolate fondue and you get unlimited toppings (like the side it comes w, the bread and stuff)

There's nothing simple about Simply Fondue. This place is amazing. My wife and I went there for a birthday dinner. The restaurant was packed, however the atmosphere was fun and not overwhelming. Our waiter "Austin" was hands down one of the best waiters we've ever had. He took his time to explain the menu and all the options we had available to us. Even though the restaurant was full and his section was busy he was still able to be very intensive and that says a lot about his character and this restaurant. The food was amazing. The choices of meats are plentiful. The drinks were amazing. Plenty of free parking near the restaurant. Can't wait till I go back...

Awesome experience They were really busy for a Wednesday evening, but everyone was amazing. We just went into the bar for appetizers but really wanted to sit at a table instead of the bar. My husband had gone to the hostess to ask if it was OK for us to sit at one of the tables at the same time I was asking the bartender Melissa who was also the manager tonight. They were both so accommodating. The hostess Leila was also bussing tables. She came over right away and cleaned the table which was dirty, brought us silverware and menus. The reason this was a big deal is because usually the tables are reserved for those ordering fondue as they have the cook top and fondue pots set up. Despite the fact that they had staffed down because Wednesday is usually slow, everyone was pleasant, attentive, and gave great customer service. We have always enjoyed Simply Fondue, but in these days of higher prices for everything and often not such great service, it was a breath of fresh air to have such a great experience and it's nice to know there are still people around that take their job seriously and want to provide great customer service. We will not only be back but will pass on to everyone we know how wonderful our experience was.

I had a great experience at Simply Fondue in Livermore tonight with my partner for date night! The atmosphere is cozy and perfect for a date night or special occasion—it feels like a fun little escape. The menu has a lot of variety, and the fondue itself was delicious, especially the cheese and dessert courses. It’s interactive and makes dining feel more like an experience than just a meal. Service was friendly and attentive, and the pacing between courses was just right. My only critique is that it can feel a little dark if you’re tucked in the back of the room, but overall it’s worth it for the unique experience and quality food. I’d definitely come back for another evening out!

What an awesome atmosphere and experience, topped off with excellent food. The menu is diverse and interesting and we couldn't help but order about half of it. The crudo was incredible and I am still thinking about pairing strawberries and fish. The duck was incredible and every dessert was absolutely out of this world. I believe they mentioned the menu changes often so I'm already looking forward to a new experience next time

We had a phenomenal experience at Range Life this Friday. My partner and I went for our 8 year anniversary. The atmosphere was very pleasant, not too loud or quiet. The food was excellent; we had several snacks and appetizers along with our entrees. All were delicious, and several had interesting flavor combinations. Above all, the service was incredible. My partner, who is not that interested in fine dining experiences, said "I wish we could give them 6/5 stars for service." They seated us promptly, timed our plating almost perfectly, and checked in several times. In addition, they wished us happy anniversary upon arrival, provided a complementary toast, and the menus had " happy anniversary" printed at the top. It was so special, and we really appreciated these touches. Overall, a great experience, and we look forward to returning!

one of the best restaurants in the area. the menu is always rotating and has limited options but everything is chef curated so bound to be good. the non alcoholic drinks are little overpriced but good. our server was a bit too enthusiastic to the point where we could tell it was fake and made us uncomfortable but was friendly. the salad was 10/10 w the roasted eggplant and the dessert was also very good and low in sugar perfect for us. the chicken could’ve been less salty but still prepared really well. the vibes in the restaurant were really good and employees seemed to get along really well.

This place is always absolutely amazing the food is always so fresh and delicious made of organic ingredients from local farms and markets. The wine beer and cocktails are also refreshing and delightful. Staff and servers are so friendly and knowledgeable also very welcoming, they never make you feel like they have the power to judge you and sit you know a crappy spot. We have been here a handful of times, busy, a little quiet and crazy insane no space because the food as mentioned is great. You can come here if you’re able to make reservations and you’ll love it every time.

Our 2nd time for dinner here. I had the flank steak prime grade. Flavorful! Red wine reduced with a variety of mushroons. Minced! So did not stand out for me. But Yukon mash was very rich. Sliced tomatoes made it more runny. Definitely, needed some roasted vegetables like asparagus. To get a bit of variety crunch on the dish. Did not use the herbed butter. Too rich!!!! The other chicken was pan roasted. And finished with light sautéed veggies broth and white beans. It was okay. No parking accessible for physically impaired. Definitely you will need reservations to get a table. Other table option was outside dinning on plastic table and chairs. Bar seating available for no reservation. We walked in on an early Thursday night. Fully booked for regular tables.

The food was so awesome! They have a slightly different menu all the time depending on what is available locally which makes it so good! Service here was wonderful! Our server, Laura, described the options so well it made us want to try all the snacks and appetizers. And oh boy! were they freaking good!!! They even helped us celebrate my birthday and our anniversary! I wish I could give six stars!!!! Will be back soon!!!!!!

Cute little place in Livermore with serves farm to table. The food is absolutely amazing complemented with the ambience.

My favorite movie venue! Love going with friends, getting a popcorn and Froze (frozen rose), then heading to find a good movie watching spot on a comfy couch with a table. This place has a great vibe and character!

The theatre has a retro vibe. I have been here couple of times. It gives a unique experience. Apart from regular seating it has a few rows of sofa like comfortable seats with a small table in front to keep your snacks, soda, beer while watching your movie. The food you get there are most likely frozen ones which are reheated. Popcorn shrimp is one of them. Their popcorn is fine as well. I am not a fan of their food. This is definitely a great spot to chill and watch a movie with your partner or friends while sipping a beer.

My favorite theater in the tri-valley! The Vine has a warm and cozy atmosphere and wonderful employees. It is a pre-multiplex theater, has only 2 screens, and no assigned seating, but that is all part of its charm. My husband and I go frequently and have never had a bad experience. I love the bistro tables and couches in the theater. The bathrooms are always pristine, and the crowds of moviegoers tend to have a happy/good energy. Thursday nights are classics nights and have played films like Casablanca, Back to the Future, North by Northwest, Grease, White Christmas, and more. I highly recommend for any movie going experience: alone, on a date, with friends/ family and/or with kids (my daughter always gets a thrill at the old-fashioned marquee).

Wonderful old style theater. Friendly, family run. Food & drink order brought to you. Regular seats have more support than soft loveseats.

Love the atmosphere, love the couches, just like sitting in your own home but with that great dolby sound!!! I would adore a few nontraditional food choices- flatbread and tacos, Chips/salsa/guacamole would be great*

Yesterday I came here to pick up some popcorn to take to my grandparents house and sometimes I come here to see some classic movies or a regular movie and the atmosphere is really good and the staff is friendly so if you haven’t been to this movie theater before I would highly recommend Stopping by and checking them out and they are also on Uber eats so check them out

There's a nice atmosphere, with comfy couches and a few beer and wine options. A fantastic place to watch a movie with that special someone or solo.

Visiting the area for personal reasons, looking for an Irish Coffee and friendly crowd. I found it here! Fresh Irish Coffee for me and a full bar for any and everyone else. Three medium sized rooms and outdoor seating area too! Didn’t try any food but Oven Baked Pizza is available. Made a few new acquaintances, watched a few patrons play Pool and the Bar Tender Ted was attentive and cool! Had a little 4 pound non-yapping Chihuahua with me too …

Solid local dive bar with great service. Live music on weekends.

I rated it higher since I'm not really a bar guy. This is probably the dive bar you want to go to. Still, not my favorite place to be. Mostly because I like quieter places. But a bunch of my friends go here so I end up here every once in a while. Could be worse.

It's been a while since I've been But this is my favorite bar ever. Mariana is the best and Penne is the cutest. Great prices and atmosphere. I've made many friends here and I met my fiancé here, so this place holds a special place in my heart.

Good service, small dive bar, outside patio where you can drink and smoke if thats your thing.

Awesome local dive bar. Great drinks that are not overpriced. Friendly bartenders. A small kitchen to make pizzas and other snacks. Plenty of TVs for all the Sunday DirecTV NFL games. Highly recommended

Definitely a dive bar. Cheap prices. Have had some fun in this bar but also seen some drama. There's a lot of testosterone and chest puffing in this place. There's also some feisty bartenders which can be amusing but you also need to stay on their good side.

Bar tender acts like she is on crack with neck twitches and when you tell her your drink she doesn’t hear you from 1 foot away. Also prices went up crazy from 5 bucks a drink. Trash trash trash.

Third time coming here in the past year. First two times bartender was the rudest I have ever encountered. I let it slide because it was a busy night so maybe she just never “seen us”. This last Saturday my husband and I stopped in for a drink before our dinner reservations. Only about 10 others inside and we were able to sit at the bar. She sat talking to others at the far end for 15 minutes then came and served others next to us. Never saying a word to us. Finally, I heard her ask us how our day was doing, or so we thought she was, so I replied it’s going great how are you. She glared at me and I realized she was asking the two guys who walked in and were standing behind us and asked what would they like to have! She never even acknowledged that we were sitting there! She seemed to be struggling a little with her speech if you know what I mean so maybe that’s why. We got up and walked out. Never again though! The owners of this place needs to really consider if this bartender is good for their business.

I love this place, best place for a game of pool with friends and drinks. I have noticed that Gabi hasnt been in, she's one of the best bartenders, she took all my drink orders and made that place feel more welcoming with an awsome vibe.. Our friends and I will have to find a new place to hang out till we see Gabi return, hopefully soon.... I'd do a 5 star, but without Gabi, the vibe just doesn't feel the same anymore. we've noticed

Warning!!!! DO NOT COME HERE! First time at this bar and the bar tender was such a “see you next Tuesday”. We walked in, nice gentlemen at the bar offered their seat for us and as we were trying to arrange the seats she goes “do you all have to seat here???”. We didn’t make a big deal out of it but then as she tried to take our orders she dismissed me as she said “oh! She’s texting”. She clearly had an issue from the moment we walked in. Too bad as we like to tip and we tip well… her loss 🤷🏻‍♀️

I have been a resident of my beautiful Livermore for over 20 years. This is normally one of my go to’s. However, the last few times I’ve been so excited and brought my friends, I immediately regretted it. The female bartender with blonde/blue hair is atrocious! We will never go back. I tell all my friends and everyone I know from the wineries and breweries to never go to the V&E. Don’t waste your time and/or money when there are so many other places that are hella better and not aggressively abusive.

Always have a good experience here. A go to for me for a cheap drink and a good conversation with a bartender. They recently upgraded the pool table as well so it’s nice to have a good one in town

I was here last year, and it still to this bothers me that when I paid to play songs on the juke box thing they played their own trap music over it. When I asked about it and wanted a refund, they said they had no control over it. I also was in here once at closing, and some guy tried to fight me and my pops because I bumped into him while he was playing pool. It's a dive bar, and unfortunately, the only place in town you can use is the bathroom due to no public bathrooms downtown.

Totally understaffed Sunday afternoon. Staff were working as fast as they could for hours, yes we were there for 2+ hours. Granted we had a group of 8, but to get a few sandwiches and drinks...2 hours. One server and one cook trying to take care of a decently full restaurant, place would have had much more business if they could have had more staff to keep up. Food could have been ok, would have been hotter and fresher if the poor staff had had proper support. Cute downtown.

The bar staff are good. The food is above par. It's pretty busy after 10 on a Fri or Saturday night but that's to be expected. The music is loud and they play several decades worth of hits. I don't have any complaints and really do appreciate what this bar is if your down town Livermore on a weekend , it's worth a shot.

I've only been there for lunch, but I go there at least once a week. They have a very succinct, yet nice menu. The place is very quiet and therefore allows people to talk. Ideal for a business lunch. Prices of the lunch menu are appropriate for the quality of the food that they deliver. Very satisfied!

This place is awful. Save your money! The $15 cheese plate had four pieces of the same frozen cheese, three slices of salami, five pieces of bread and two jar olives on a stick. $15!!!! The Cesar salad was dry and it took 40 minutes to get the food. Because some Dipshit was yelling at his partner on the deceivingly nice patio outside, we went inside and it was your basic TVs everywhere, loud bar. Gross, expensive rip off.

What kind of a barman intentionally ignores a guy trying to get his first drink of the evening at your not-particularly-busy bar for 20 minutes whilst serving other customers that obviously just walked up 30 seconds ago, then threatens to call security when you complain about it? Toby, that's who! Or was it Joey? Music was loud so can't be sure. Couldn't believe how rude and threatening this guy was to my poor friend who waited so politely for so long then got abuse for calling the guy out. Seriously, get some better bar staff.

Great place and the staff is the best... Out door area with fire pits. If you're gonna order food try to get Stephanie as your server!

Service was good. They had a very diverse menu. Lots of seating indoor and some outdoor. Located in nice downtown.

I was passing through and this place caught my eye. I was able to find parking so I knew it was a sign of good food to come! The first thing I will say it the service was out of this world. I asked my server for a drink and while he was explaining the menu it was brought out to me. I couldn’t believe it. The coleslaw was a very light vinegar based and it was fresh and crunchy. The sweet potatoes tater tots were absolutely amazing. The brisket was super super juicy and tender. The smoke in it was not over powering either. Now in my opinion the start of the show was the burnt ends pork belly! Wooweee!! Those were absolutely marvelous. It was a nice touch to have several different types of bbq sauce. They also had a beer/shot combo that looked great too. I passed on alcohol this time!! All people were very pleasant to be around.

I ended up coming her with my family to try out their meat. I got a brisket with loaded potato and corn bread and a sweet iced tea I would rate the brisket a good 6/10 My reasons for that is because when it came out it wasn’t very hot it was more on the cold side then warm. I ended up trying it without bbq and it had no kind of flavor or any kind of seasoning. The slices were kind of thin . Only came with a couple of slices. The loaded potatoes same thing with the seasoning not much . It wasn’t hot either it was barely warm. The cheese on it tasted pretty cheap but over all it was ok 6/10 The corn bread was definitely my least favorite hard from the outside tasted like if it was warmed up from yesterday . But good from the inside 5.5/10 Now my favorite was just the drink ….. the sweet Iced tea ! Definitely a 10/10 Service was good 5/5 And the atmosphere was also alright 4/5

I love Sauced. It’s such a great staple of BBQ in the Bay Area. Honey is from Texas, and this is the closest place we've found to TX BBQ. We came on a Saturday afternoon before St. Patrick's Day, so a lot of people were bar crawling. The inside was packed. It was a nice day, so we sat on the patio. A few people had their dogs with them on the patio. On this trip, we went off script and didn’t order BBQ. We always get the brussel sprouts. They add pork belly to them, making them super savory with a mild touch of sweetness (chef’s kiss). I love their bumpkins, so I had to get those too. Since the last time we were here, they updated their menu. They brought back the sweet potato casserole, which Honey loves. They also added the jambalaya, which was good as a side dish but not great. It was a large portion, so I see how they could offer it as a main. Honey said it was on the spicier side, but I didn’t feel it. Honey had the fried chicken sandwich. She got all the toppings on the side and added some of their BBQ sauce to make it her own. She said the chicken was good, and the flavor combination she created made it even better. The Big Sexy. This is not for the weak. It was packed with flavors but so delicious. The mac & cheese with pepper jack gives you that gooey cheese sensation, the Nashville chicken was a perfect blend of spice and crunch, and the bacon added a little smoky taste. The slaw cut through some of the savory flavors with a hint of sweetness. OMG, it was good. As soon as it got to the table, I had the server give me a to-go box for half. If I had eaten the whole thing, I would have been in a food coma for the rest of the day. Overall, Sauced is a great restaurant with something for everyone. I always recommend Sauced to anyone who wants BBQ.

This is a great place for beers and smoked meats. I love their brisket, tritip slider, and pork bacon burnt end, delicious taste with full smoked flavor. The service is also superb.

Good food ... A bit pricey. I feel they have the tables to close to each other and seem weird being right on the person next to you. But that said everything else was really good. I love the down town areas. Good vibes .

Went there for my 60th B-day. Was greeted by the staff as we walked in and to our table. Which I appreciated 👏 and it was our first time visiting.The waitress was very patient and friendly, also very helpful in deciding our main course. We went with the family feast which feeds 6-8 people.

Good BBQ food. Good selection of drinks to choose from. Nice atmosphere

Had a small birthday party on a Saturday evening. Food was excellent. Service was OUTSTANDING. Server smiled the entire time and was very attentive. My only complaint was that it was a little noisy, but you are in the middle of a bocce court; what can you expect? All restaurants are noisy anyway.

Never knew Italy was in “my backyard.” Great food, extensive local and international wine selection, fun cocktail menu, and indoor and outdoor bocce courts. Great party place for groups, both young, old, corporate, graduation parties, birthdays, to have fun. Came here as a girls night out, specifically a mommies night out. Friendly staff brought yummy food, made wine recommendations, explained bocce, how to play, and kept score, and finally took our group photo. All with a smile. Highly recommend this place for large groups. Only downside, finding parking space in the lot (Campo di Bocce is in a busy strip mall) can be tough during meal times.

I love this place. It is great for family visits. It is also great for events with a large A mounts of people with outdoor and indoor baci ball courts. The seating outside is heated. I really enjoyed that when I went there on Sunday for their brunch buffet. It happens between 1030 and 2 and I have anything there from cheese to shrimp to omelets to prime rib to deserts and everything in between. I definitely will go again my grandpa loves this place. It is in a nice quiet area with beautiful scenery.

The shrimp scampi was spicier than expected and the gelato was thicker than expected but overall the food was good and it is definitely a fun place to eat and hang out.

Great place for company parties! Perfect to go to in the summertime. Love the food and the bocce is fun too! It was my first time playing and the tutorial the staff gives you is very helpful. I would definitely go again.

Wonderful food. Amazing service. Great place to gather, eat, socialize, and play bocce! The staff were amazing at tending to our party of 22 and the food was fantastic from start to finish. It was an amazing overall experience.

The service level here is so high! Christine, our server, was so cool and really helped us understand how to play and kept the drinks flowing. The whole team kept us safe during this covid social distancing thing and we will be returning soon. We played for hours and it was suck a great way to get the kids out of the house. Thanks again Campo Di Bocce.

What an outstanding place for dinner. This will be my new primary go to place every time I visit Livermore. The staff is absolutely amazing, so friendly and smart and very informative about menu items and wine choices. I love their corkage that they don’t charge you if you buy and bring in Livermore wines. Overall, this place is absolutely fantastic.

Zephyr Grill & Bar is one of my favorite spots! I absolutely love their pasta so flavorful and comforting. The steaks are perfectly cooked every time, and the appetizers come in generous portions, great for sharing. Their cocktails are delicious too, well-balanced and creative. Great food, great drinks, and a cozy atmosphere. what more could you ask for?

This place is damn delicious! Best artichoke dip EVER... like legit artichoke, not a bowl of mayo with a few pieces in it. Don't forget to ask for bread and butter (free). It's really tasty and very fresh. I got pork loin seasonal special with mashed potatoes which was excellent. Wife got the chicken Cobb salad which was good (presentation was average but the food was very fresh and the chicken was done perfectly). Service was great too. Server has a fun personality, and her refill game was on point. Highly recommend going. You can save good $$$ if you go during happy hour.

Lovely open feel to the restaurant with plenty of light and a nice patio as well. Ordered the short ribs and they were fantastic. My Moscow mule was a little on the sour side, but the margarita was excellent. My friend got pan seared sole and it looked fantastic. The panna cotta dessert got decent reviews but it wasn't my friend's favorite. But my own meal was stellar.

My wife’s favorite place for happy hour! Martini Mondays are the best! Happy hour menu is wonderful, but you really cannot go wrong with anything there. Staff is always very kind and accommodating. Our favorite little spot, and then you can hop over to the Vine to see a show.👍🏽

Only the 2nd time we've eaten here. We sat outside, very nice waitress. I had the prime rib which was a very thick slice. I ordered medium rare, but it came out more medium. I wish they served asked potatoes, but the mashed potatoes were good. My wife had the cutlets with blue cheese, she said it was very good. My son had the New York with a slice of raspberry butter, he said it was good. His girlfriend had the chicken marsala which she said it also was good. Finished it off with chocolate sundae with mini M&M's and Oreo Cookie crumbs, 4 scoops of vanilla.

Dined at Zephyr for a corporate dinner & they organized our dining area pretty well. We were about 40 of us dining at the restaurant & they set up our tables in a private room and accommodated our last-minute adjustments to the table configurations. Our Server & Bartender were lovely & very welcoming. They had Veggies & Pesto Ranch dip station setup along with Fresh Bread & Warm Artichoke Dip. That Dip was outstanding! Because of the size of our group, we had a preset menu with a choice of soup or salad, a main course & dessert. I got the Butternut Squash soup, Primavera Pasta & Decadent Chocolate Cake. Soup was amazing - perfect for the chilly weather. Pasta was alright - huge portions. What surpised me was the dessert - absolutely phenomenal especially for a flourless cake. Overall a great experience!

The $50 tasting menu is definitely worth trying. The Chardonnay is creamy, and there's a wide selection of wines. The cheese and charcuterie are amazing, serving as the perfect complement to the wines. The hospitality staff provided an exceptional experience.

First ever experience wine tasting in California. We came from our road trip from Wisconsin and have become a brand loyalist from this experience alone. Thank you Shelia. The experience was amazing and we called ahead just to see if we could stop bybecause the tastings were booked online. They were able to get us in for an amazing tasting experience that ended in us joining the wine club. I felt like I was treated with respect and joy. I didn't feel out of place or unwanted for my inexperience. It felt like a midwest welcome. We want to come back yearly now. Sheila was lovely and informative. I enjoyed her candor and experience. This whole place was amazing and I cannot stop gushing over it. Everyone was so friendly. Thank you for such a memorable moment.

The vineyard's stunning landscapes provided the perfect canvas for our couples photos and videos creating a backdrop that effortlessly blended natural beauty with timeless elegance. We LOVE shooting here! It's not our first time and can't wait to be back. If you're considering having your wedding here, do not hesitate- book it! We love shooting here and so does our team!

A bit surprising to see so many low reviews. Been here twice, last time was years ago, but both times have been a great experience. Made a reservation online, was seated promptly. Service was excellent. Friendly and knowledgeable. We did tastings of both their family $40 and nth degree $50. 5 wines on each, mix of white and reds. We were able to try some additional wines they had open already as well. Wines were pretty good overall. Consistent with the last time I came. Only negative is the high prices but it's expected given they are one of the biggest name wineries in LV. Beautiful property. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Definitely worth visiting

I had high hopes for the experience here. Unfortunately, I would only rate it as a bit above average. We dined outside at the clubhouse grill and then ventured over to the tasting room. The grounds and lounges are lovely - not a bad view anywhere on the property. We had the pulled pork tacos which were delicious! I didn’t rate it too high due to the tasting room experience. Our server was very nice, and the wines were pretty good. However, the pours stuck strictly by the book and the tasting fee was not waved even though we purchased a few bottles.

Very disappointing visit August 30 For several years as a top tier wine club member I have experienced consistently excellent service. Today the staff was swamped with holiday weekend traffic. We were seated by the fire pit and then forgotten. We were trying to pickup a case of of the August club allotment that had been placed on hi heat hold. Nobody seem to be able to find the order. The order was eventually recreated by hand. It still is a great venue. the.wine is still superior but the operation layer an egg when stress tested .

Hugely disappointing! My family and I went to Wente for wine tasting a week ago with plans to join and become members. My husband and I remember going a decade ago and had fond memories and having recently moved to the area, we figured it would be a place we would regularly visit. The wines themselves are pretty run of middle wines - nothing was special or memorable. The venue is pretentious but has so much it could offer. The service was the worst part. Our server was Nancy who was not just downright rude but would try to push options and items on us that we did not ask for and upcharge everything. The service was not just very slow, but there was barely any communication from her regarding the wines. She would disappear for 20 minutes at a time. The pours were less than an ounce where we could not even get two sips to actually enjoy the wine. This was not the case at other tables as I saw other servers/clients were treated much better. Nancy kept trying to give us and charge us for a charcuterie board despite us saying multiple times we did not want it or ask for it. She then charged extra for everyone, including my husband who shared his tasting as he was driving. The kicker - she wanted to us to blindly give her our credit card without even showing us the charges. I had to ask for the breakdown and she scoffed at the request and only let us see it since I refused to blindly hand over my credit card. Service was horrible and for this reason not only did I not join the membership but will not be coming back. Although they state they are family friendly, they are not! They charge $5 extra for each 'non-taster' and kid and don't advertise this at all.

Came by on Saturday after July 4th. Pretty busy, but still had openings. A bit awkward at FOH with some disorganization. Nonetheless, we were able to get sat outside. Chair's cushion kept falling through for some reason so that was a bit annoying. Tasting cost is $30/per head. Decent weather. Parking available on-site.

Probably the best wine tasting experience within a short driving distance of the Bay Area without going to Napa. This place is simply excellent with fantastic wines, indoor tasting rooms, outdoor patio seatings, a large grassy field where you can buy a bottle of wine and picnic with friends, and an outdoor wine bar. This is an excellent place to visit with friends. I recommend making reservations if you wish to sit inside or on any of the tables that are covered. However, the outside uncovered tables and the entire grassy field are completely open! When we came, we bought a bottle of white wine, brought a blanket, and just hung out and had a picnic. It was a great time. The facilities are super clean and the staff are really nice. Just be aware that sometimes people will book events here and you might not be able to stay as long as you want without a reservation, so take note of that and call ahead. There is plenty of parking here and it's pretty easy to get to. I'd recommend bringing sunblock if you plan on being outside. Also, bring a camera because there are some fantastic places to take pictures and you are welcome to walk around the immediate property to take photos!

We had a great tasting experience with Ashely. My dog was welcomed and comfortable. Lots of shade. Great atmosphere and ambiance. Thank you!!!

Concannon Vineyard is situated in Livermore CA founded by James Cannon in 1883. Excellent vineyard supposed to be the 2nd biggest in California. Went there on 16th April on weekend. Is huge but at the time of my visit there was no grapes crop, may be not the season however the vinery was functioning. You can taste their wines and also purchase. Excellent wine to taste but if you are in a group of 8 or more then you have to take prior reservation or else you can walk in for tasting and purchase. There was a discount of up to 40% in purchase of 6 or more bottles of wine. Lots of place for sitting to consume your wine both inside and outside the billing. There's a big lawn with chairs and table for that. Excellent Vineyard.

Busy busy busy. At the wine tasting room no one was there to tell us where to start, finally found a place by the counter and it was just several empty glasses no one was cleaning up. We moved from there because again no one helped us, by the third counter a lady told us somebody else will help us because she was waiting for a group, the guy tried to help but the cashier register didn’t work. We decided to go outside and more than 1/2 of the tables where reserved. We got a bottle of Chardonnay and it was ok not great. By the time we left it was extremely busy.

That's a solid winery and I would recommend going. Beautiful grounds for a picnic or some Instagram stuff if you're into that. I am not a wine connoisseur, so I won't pretend to know what I'm talking about. We got a bottle of white wine cause it was real hot out and I didn't hate it at all, that's a win!

Enjoy the wine selections they have but you can't get a hold of anyone to speak to on the phone EVER. Can you normalize answering the phone during the normal biz hours, please...?

Gorgeous winery in Livermore. We were there in a big group on a Saturday. They had live music, a food vendor and amazing area to enjoy their delicious organic wine. Definitely a must for anyone in the area.

“Stingy, Penny-Pinching Winery” - August 2025 Review A group of us came on a Saturday at 12 noon. Many things were off-putting, here it goes: 1) Upon entering, no host was present to greet you or provide a menu…we had to walk to the back to order. 2) a flurry of requirements were promptly delivered to us: $5 per person just to sit on the premises! A 3 bottle minimum for our group! Never have I been to a winery that behaves like a nightclub hosting a comedy night and requiring drink minimums. I felt it was a bit crass and off-putting. 3) I had no connectivity, so I asked for the WiFi password. I was told they don’t provide WiFi for their guests! I explained I can’t use my phone to text others in my party, but alas NO WiFi. How stingy :( 4) We bought $50 bottle of Cabernet sauvignon and $38 bottle of Merlot…I must admit both were lackluster. Don’t trust me? Try it for yourself. Retzlaff is an acceptable winery but it felt very stingy and penny-pinchy for my liking. And we weren’t impressed with the wine nor the service. My recommendation is go elsewhere - there are many options in Livermore.

This is a great winery! The tasting menu was really smooth and balanced, and the waitress was super informative about the process and answered all our questions. The setting and overall location is gorgeous. The pepper trees, the vines, and the live music made such a nice atmosphere!

One gets a great wine tasting experience under scenic surroundings at the Retzlaff Vineyards at Livermore. We relished their different varieties as part of the Wine Tasting. We also bought some Isabelle’s Blush, Chardonnay, Cabernet and Sauvignon Wines. The staff are very helpful, friendly and great. Weekends have large visitors and reservations may be necessary. One can also enjoy lunch cuisines that time.

We had a lovely tasting experience. Great setting, tucked between the vines and shaded by tall trees. Our host was excellent, lovely selection of red wines as well as a Sauvignon Blanc. We will be back!

Friend had a birthday here! It was a great place with live music but the weather was a bit cold! Had great wine and food from the vendor on the property was awesome! Very nice grassy area and the scenic views were nice🤩👌 Definitely a good spot compared to your larger vineyards in the area.

Splendid venue for a celebratory picnic and to drink a variety of wines. The catered sandwich lunch was hearty and the jazz band excellent. It does get exceptionally hot in Livermore in the summer (it was over 100 degrees the day we went). They supply lots of water and umbrellas for shade, but I recommend you wear a hat and bring sunscreen.

This place has great Italian food and pasta, and I love the vibe it’s refreshing and makes for a great time. Whenever I visit California, I love going to Livermore. The vibe there is so cool and pleasant, and the people are always smiling. On weekends, people bring out vintage cars, which I absolutely love. I tried pasta there, and the food was great, but more than the food, I loved the ambiance outside. That entire lane is amazing I just love enjoying the view while having my food.

Tried to order the sausage sandwich from the dinner menu and was told they quit serving that at 3pm... then take it off the dinner menu. Ordered the Veal and my friend ordered the fish of the day Salmon. We also ordered the garlic cheese bread and the calamari. It took forever and when it finally arrived, the Cheese bread was barely a meh and calamari was overcooked and chewy. Not a good start... Veal and Salmon came and although good, the veal was a small portion of two very small thin slices with green beans and potato. At $30 it was overpriced for what I got. The ladies Salmon was fresh and cooked nicely. Meal was fine but tried to order the apple torte when asked about desert and was told they were out. If everything one person ordered was a no, you can understand the frustration so three stars for total but service was slightly better at 4 stars.

Wonderful spot to enjoy great food and great service while dining outside under shade trees and awnings. Sonoma salad was top notch. Server brings delicious cheesy bread. Excellent coffee. Outstanding service. Can be a bit noisy from passing motorcycles and classic cars.

Overall the food was good. My pasta dish with the saphron sauce had great flavor and the sun dried tomatoes were very good. However, the chicken was tough and not very flavorful and the tiny shrimp were very basic and kind of boring. Service was very good. Wife and I weren't fans of the bread they provide. Seemed dry.

Service was excellent. Waiters were very professional and friendly. Beers on tap were great. Pastas were good. Veg pizza was average. Thick and heavy. Bread was great. They make any pasta or pizza kids size.

The food here is terrible for much it costs. The bread they give you is bland. The calamari is seasoned but rubbery. The meatballs and spaghetti were ghastly. The meatballs had the texture of a bad sloppy joe. The fudge cake is extremely dry. I do not recommend this place.

The ambiance was amazing with to canal view, dimmed lights with candle lights. They have some wine and other drinks in the menu. Their homemade pesto was good. The bread was fine and soft, can be toasted to enhance the flavor with some butter I guess. The food for vegetarians was limited so the pasta I tried was just mediocre but adding some housemade pesto made it better. The lobster ravioli was just fine as well. The flavors could be better. We had a swap of waiters for a bit, but that was due to some music issue I guess. The other waiter kinda showed the bias by not apologizing about the inconvenience to us which was fine until he went ahead to others except us. Oh well. I would recommend for the ambiance but chef can improve the flavors a bit.

From the moment we arrived, The Bankhead Theater impressed. Its prime location made it a breeze to find, and the convenient, close-by parking was an added bonus, setting the stage for a stress-free evening. Inside, the experience only got better. The friendly and efficient staff greeted us warmly, guiding us to our seats with remarkable ease. Every interaction was smooth, contributing to a truly welcoming atmosphere. But of course, the highlight of the night was the performance itself. We were there to see Josh Blue, and he was absolutely hilarious, delivering 90 minutes of non-stop laughter that had the entire audience roaring. And the best part? The tickets were very reasonably priced, making this exceptional night out incredible value. If you're looking for a fantastic entertainment experience, The Bankhead Theater delivers on all fronts: prime location, hassle-free parking, superb staff, and top-tier performances at an unbeatable price. It's a must-visit!

Absolutely beautiful theater with an amazingly kind staff. Acoustic perfection. Definitely check out any performance there. Cute town for a getaway!

Easy free parking. Get to see the Broadway show Cinderella. Awesome and outstanding performance, must see and enjoy. Easy seating, beautiful stage, acoustics and sound was perfect.

Nice venue. Every seat is a good seat. The singing performer said he enjoyed the acoustics here. Staff is friendly and helpful. Great location in Livermore with a nearby free parking garage and plenty of restaurants within walking distance.

We were here to see the band immediate family. It was my second time at the Bankhead. It’s a nice little venue. lots of great restaurants nearby and free parking which is great.

I am so saddened and appalled by the Bankhead theater workers. I was there yesterday with a friend of mine who is in her 90s and we were there doing the process of getting our tickets to the concert. It was over 100° while we were standing in line and I went up to the counter asking if there was a place that I could place my friend or set her down so that she didn’t have to stand in that Hot weather and since the tickets were under her name, she had to be there. So I went up to the counter and asked, and the lady at the counter told me NO! I asked if she could talk to the manager. I repeated this lady is 92 years old and she’s handicapped. I don’t mind waiting in the line and I told him that, but after they talk to the manager, the manager even said no, and they told us to just come back later. My friend was so upset and we’re still coming to the concert and I’m just very saddened by the treatment.

Went to see La Traviatta opera by Verdi. A magical afternoon. The cast, music and costumes were fantastic.

Interesting place, I did order a carne asada torta and guacamole for the table. The positives, I believe the salsa for the chips is very good and the best part, it is free. The torta was a good size portion, however I feel that the portion of bread compared to the meat is a bit off, I would prefer less bread and more meat, I think the jalapeño and the fresh avocado was a good complement in the torta. The 11 dollars 1/2 cup guacamole was overpriced and bland, the art of making guacamole is not only mashed avocado, needs spices and love. Don bother asking for the specials, 20 dollars tamale is not what I call special.

I cannot say enough about this restaurant and the experience I had! El Charro Mexican Food and Cantina was recommended to me when I called several nearby restaurants to inquire about handling a large party. I was looking for a place to host a family luncheon/celebration of life for about 25 people. I do not live in CA, so trying to plan an event at a restaurant sight-unseen made me nervous. Celia, the second person I spoke to at this restaurant, also provided excellent customer service all of which put me at ease: she answered all my questions, described the private room's setting and ambiance (it had recently undergone renovations and could accommodate my party size), made great suggestions for food, and detailed cost options. I later spoke to the owner, who was also incredibly helpful and customer service-oriented. My party grew in size, but he assured me that this was no problem. I ordered from the catering menu: Beef and Chicken Fajitas, Pork Carnitas, Cheese Enchiladas, and a House salad. The restaurant served rice, beans, and warm, flour or corn tortillas. The menu was flexible enough to tailor some of what I ordered to my family's wants (like beef AND chicken in the fajitas). When we arrived, Jose, our dedicated server, was super attentive, patient, friendly, helpful, and respectful. We were served chips and salsa, and then hot quesadillas and nachos, all before the main course. Jose took all our drink orders and served us promptly, making it all look effortless! The food was hot, delicious, authentic, and visually appealing. The room was decorated with Dia De Los Muertos-themed decorations, which my family loves. Two stunningly beautiful murals on the walls in the private room made our photos look like we were vacationing in Mexico. Although we were there for a somewhat somber occasion, we are exceedingly happy with how our gathering turned out, thanks to everyone at El Charro Mexican Food and Cantina. Make them your next visit when you are in Livermore, CA!

I love the atmosphere here. Endless decor to admire. The staff is always friendly and this is a rare restaurant where I'm checked on and asked how my food is. The tequila menu is impressive and last time I went I had the Cadillac margarita. It was delivered with a generous shot of Grand Marnier on the side. Taco salad was fresh, as were the chips and salsa. This is a great spot for a date or for the family :)

This was my first time eating at this restaurant, and I had high expectations for it. The place was very nice and had a good atmosphere. However, the hostess wasn’t friendly at all and just showed us to a table without saying a word. She was quick to serve us our drinks, but her attitude was not okay. Our server was very nice and professional, but we got our food more than 30 minutes later, even though the place wasn’t busy. They also messed up on my husband’s order (he ordered a burrito mojado and got a regular one), but we didn’t say anything because we knew it would take longer to remake. I don’t think I would come back to this place.

Love, love loooove this place! The food is very authentic, specially the green Salsa😋 they have plenty of vegetarian dishes and MEZCAL! Mr. Erick was so helpful and attentive. Word of advise if you are planning dinner/or after work meeting with friends at this place get there early ( like around 4pm) Friday's and Saturday's; since the patio gets full quickly and they have just a few tables and it's quite cozy 😉.

I had a business meeting in Livermore and had to lay up the night before. We are out of towners visiting a this local Mexican restaurant. So, this was a one and done deal. We both love true Mexican crispy tacos and saw that crispy tacos were on the menu. We both ordered a combo plate with a crispy taco and something else. The wife and I both disliked the crispy taco shell. It had a stale feel and taste much like a boxed shell. I am guessing that the shells were made earlier today or yesterday. The second item for the wife was an enchilada. She commented that there wasn't any sauce inside the enchilada therefore it was a little dry. My second item was a chili relleno. It was very good. The rice and refried beans were a good standard. Service was excellent. Prompt with the drinks and refills. Food was served hot and fresh from the kitchen. Nothing wrong here. The interior was a little dark but very common looking (just like every other nicer Mexican restaurant).

El Charro has a new look and a new menu and OH MY GOSH 10/10!!! The new look is so upscale and such a vibe. They have pops of turquoise, new artwork, fresh paint... everything is bright and open and beautiful. New glasses, new plates, new presentation of the food - everything is great. The menu has a lot of the same favorites and some delicious new choices - including fresh chicharrones which were YUM. José was our fantastic server - very attentive and polite and he recommended the chicharrones, which were great. Couldn't ask for better service. So stoked for these new changes! We were fans before and even more so now!

My friend has a cousin that is in a band. His band went up to this Vineyard Winery and had a session for the people there. The atmosphere was great beautiful landscapes and great people to have fun with. You get to to where the grounds, wine tasting, can have parties there, or birthdays there. But the people were very polite and helpful a very nice place to have a first date at or a company function. Would recommend it to anybody.

Hit- - Great location with scenic views - Covered Family patio to hang out - Nice spread offered with wine tasting - Great selection of wines in tasting - In house Pizza Tandoor - In house live music - Courteous Staff Miss- - A little expensive entry for a non-member: $50

Super nice team and outstanding wines. Love the tasting rooms.

We fell upon this cute little gem of a vineyard by accident because the other vineyards were closed. Thank goodness. If you want exceptional service, positive vibes, and amazing wine, I highly recommend McGrail! Ask for Allison, she's the best !

We did a wine tasting on a weekday morning and it was serene. Beautiful environment, great wine, and excellent service. Kim took great care of us!

Beautiful property and delicious wine. The barrel room and patio are massive so I'm sure this winery can get busy by the wine is very good and they have all kinds of jams, dressings and oils from local vendors on sale.

This is the first donut store - that I know of - that is open for 24 hours. The store reminds me of the 1990s. They are CASH ONLY. We tried their chocolate donut with rainbow sprinkles, custard filled donut and their classic donut. All were fresh and really soft. Might drive here again to try their other donuts.

Hands down the BEST donut shop in the bay area. Their donuts are unbelievably good, like melt-in-your-mouth delicious. I've tried almost every flavor, and I haven't found a single one I didn't love.

This used to be my go-to donut shop wherever I came to Livermore.. I think this will be my last time purchasing donuts from here.. The donuts I bought were dry, and one was even stale and old tasting.. I got a glazed donut.. a jelly donuts and 2 cinnamon cake donuts.. my husband even agreed with me.. this donuts shop has gone downhill..

I really enjoyed donut will however I did not get any donuts. We did purchase some donut holes and had a conversation with the staff member there. This place is located in downtown Livermore and is open 24 hours. If you're in the mood for donuts late night, stop by and check them out

I get the place is old but soap and water is free and the store could look like it belongs in Livermore not Stockton...I'm a military veteran I love the doughnuts but can't help seeing all the issues doughnuts piled in a bucket on the floor doughnuts under the table old faded signs ECT reminds me of Iraq..

The sweetest older gentleman helped us out with some of the best donuts. He made my night being so kind and helpful with suggestions. Would go back again and again! Super fresh and good donuts.

Keep checking on the time for up and close. We haven't been by here much but it looks like it's open later now. 2024 update It is open 24 hrs but closed briefly at 9pm for shift change Steady stream of customers after 9pm Thursday, September 5 2024 Old review Usually would do 5 stars, because as pedestrian and a bit run down as Donut Wheel appears, they are the best donuts in the Bay Area, and we try every donut place we come across. Ditch the gourmet expensive ones that are popping up all over. THESE are REAL donuts. but last night they were out of some of our favorite donuts. Hence the 4 stars. I understand. It's a small family operation like Liguria Bakery in SF. They run out. So be prepared to not have you first choice if you're there late Saturday night. . Still worth the trip if you're in the Livermore area, or passing by on 580 to the Sierras or to home. ******* Update July 1, 2023. We still believe in the wheel. It's a family operation and they do have staffing issues on occasion. While listed closed at 10pm Saturday night, they're only closing long enough for the clerk to get his father in law and they will be open all Saturday night long. Ask the clerks for updates on hours. Things do change. Remember, the early birds get the stuffed donut holes. Please patronize a great family owned place. Covid screwed things up and more sales will help out. More donuts equals more smiles

The best wine in the Livermore valley. Great wines. Excellent customer service. Must visit!!

Solid! Absolutely solid wine. The type where there wasn't really anything wrong with any of the wines. The type where you are pretty tempted to join because you just agree with how the winemaker is making wine. Going to have to come back again here to try the flight again after their next release to see if lightning strikes twice, in which case we'll have to join. Highly recommend if you're at the complex and trying to decide which of the little tasting rooms to check out. Also, if you do decide to join, they dedicate a lot of their space to a members only lounge in the bac, which is pretty fun. Loved the barbera wines the most - both the sparkling and the rose. Bought a few bottles of rose, which is rare because I find rose wine the most boring and one dimensional. But this rose of barbera was fun and interesting.

I was in a group of 7 that participated in the "Private Salon Experience with Resident Sommelier!". This was hands down one of the most memorable wine tasting experiences I have ever had, and I have had many. What made it so special was VJ, our Resident Sommelier. He was such a pleasure to learn from, extremely knowledgeable, and made the whole experience fun! He answered all of our questions and had great stories! I cannot say enough great things about him! The room the tasting happens in is so elegant and beautiful. We sat down to a table served with 4 tastings. Each unique for their history and flavors. There is also a door that opens to a deck with a gorgeous view of the vineyard. I am so grateful I was able to have this experience and I think all wineries should offer it! It is truly the first class way of tasting wine! "Coach" will just never be the same again. Worth every penny and more! I highly recommend if you are in town! Truly a one of a kind experience!

Just attended a release party. Every one of the wines was outstanding. The Premier cab is especially wonderful. All of the food that was served was also wonderful and went great with the wines they were paired with. The staff at Steven Kent Winery is truly exceptional. Stephen Mirrasou is an extremely special person and makes world class wine.

Really enjoyed the casual atmosphere here, and Vijay knows his stuff! It was a pleasure having him as our server, even though he’s a Packers fan. 😂 Wine was excellent!

Steven, Beth and the rest of the winemaking team make arguably the best Bordeaux wines out of Livermore Valley. They are also revolutionizing some of the Loire red (Cab Franc) with one of the best you will try in California. Their sparkling Barbera is unusual and delightful and even made in the traditional method. I've tried many overly sweet sparkling wines in Livermore. This is not one of those. It is drier and the most complex one I've tried yet in Livermore. They have accessible wine club options with benefits that outweigh the costs of membership.

Well for one, the wines are silky smooth, especially the Premier and Lineage lines and the Petite Verdot is amazing!!! I can say that this place the best Cabs I have ever tasted and we have been to many wineries. Lloyd was fantastic and very knowledgeable about the library of wine and very nice to us. I recommend this Winery highly.

Worth a stop in if you are in the area! Beer options are plentiful, great space, vibe, and super clean! This beer AND Kombucha is so refreshing! Something for everyone on the menu! Such a good hang out spot, after work, date night, and more. Dog Friendly too! I can't wait to be back!

Nice clean spot. Stopped by after hitting Wood Family Vineyards across the street. Two of us had: maui waui ipa $7 waui water peach breaker $6 I personally had the IPA. Unfortunately, no hazys here. Standard IPA. Food truck available outside.

Super impressed with these guys! Great Bay-Area culture throw backs with the graffiti and top notch beer. I had a taster flight and each one would have made a terrific pint. Good selection of swag and plenty of space for groups. Corn hole for an ice breaker is always welcome! I recommend the “Undersized IPA”

Reviewing the retail operations... I recently ordered a couple of items and only received one. I reached out several times and left a few voicemails with no response. I was pretty annoyed after a couple of weeks went by. Then Ryan stepped in. He was responsive, explained the issue, and worked to resolve it. He then went way above and beyond and delivered a similar item TO. MY. DOORSTEP! I'll also still get the original item once available. This is exceptional customer service, customer retention, and how to create loyalty. I don't even like beer, but I'm going to Altamont Beer Works anyway. Thank you Ryan!

Awesome, danky IPAs and a great facility! Altamont Beer Works is always a fun spot to hang out or join for an event. Taproom is spacious, beers are fresh, and there's a friendly, lively vibe. Highly recommended!

The Altamont Beer Works was the 1st brewery in Livermore, since the prohibition. The brewery produces more than 13k barrels of beer in 3 different warehouses. I was impressed to discover they are a 2 million dollar company and create nearly 40 different kinds of beer a year. The assortment of beers range from: white beer / fruit ale / Dark lager / golden ale/ ipas and red ales. There are plenty of to-go 4 packs available for purchase. I would recommend reading the beer list and descriptions on the Altamont Beer Works website, if you are not able to sample any of their beers. I would have bought quite a bit more, if I had known more about the beers. The brewery was cleaning their lines at the time of my visit. The taproom is available for indoor seating Thursday through Sunday from noon until 8pm. The other days, they are only open for beers to-go. Shipping is available in California only for a $25 fee. The staff is personable and offered suggestions on beer that might appease my palette. Unfortunately, the beertender was not accurate in the beer they recommended for me. Since I wasn't able to spend more than 15 minutes at this brewery, I cannot suggest it as a good date spot. IG: SACRAMENTOHONEY

Great beer! Although the space is large and has high ceilings, it has a cozy feeling. If you like watching sports on TV, you're in luck here. The crowd is friendly and convivial (~usually~). If course, the staff is great and can help you choose a beer, if necessary. Don't be afraid to request a sample or two. The beer: lagers, IPAs, reds, stouts, etc. There should be something to satisfy everyone in your group.

Great place to have lunch or dinner. You can sit inside or outside. It’s on the golf course so the view is beautiful. Definitely give it a try! You’ll be glad you did!

I've been here a couple times with friends and it's a great sports bar (gets quite lively during 49era games!) and conveniently next to their golf course. Several TVs, a full scale bar, and lots of vegetarian choices. I got the California burger with a veggie patty and potato salad, it was really well done and filled me up. Their coffee and beers here are worth a sip too. The appetizers are great to share - onion rings, garlic fries, they're all amazing.

Was there for a retirement party. Which they did great. Haven't been here in a few years but it was still great. Definitely recommend for food and golf.

Fun and friendly staff. Food was delivered quickly from ordering. Also had a couple beers on tap.

Beebs is right near a golf course. Seems to be popular with baseball dads and kids. Service here is very attentive, but I'm sure when the weekend crowd comes, it can get chaotic. There are a few arcade games, and tons of TV screens. Garlic fries are amazing! Everything else was also good.

Their sandwiches and burgers are the BEST and they're paired pretty good with a long island iced tea or a blue moon 😤

Great little spot. Food is pretty good for being a golf course. I come here even when I’m not golfing.

Great place for a glass of wine or beer and appetizers. Baked feta dish is especially tasty. Staff is friendly and efficient!

This is one of my favourite wine and tapas place to go to. The service an the atmosphere are fantastic. They have great live bands who come here Thursdays, fridays and Saturdays.

Prices for wine bottles upmarked by about $15-20 more. Could invest a little more on the quality of appetizers/food as what they offer is highly processed.

Not The best place for food and wine pairing, no menu and what they brought out looked like it came out of a microwaveable food box, one of the cheeses tasted like plastic and the host was very rude. The live music was lovely though, that is why they got 3 stars.

Amazing time! Band was awesoooome and Maddie our waitress was terrific! Will surely come back again and again and again!

They deliver to Tap 25 next door. Be sure to give their food a try

Open Mic on the third Thursday of the month

Some may say this is just an old lightbulb but to the city of Livermore and the firefighters inside this building it is a beacon of light that shines down on the firefighters that protect the city. The lightbulb is more than just a good luck charm to them. This lightbulb represents over 120 years of brotherhood. The lightbulb watches over the firefighters and the firefighters watch over the lightbulb. Quick facts: The lightbulb was first turned on in 1901. The lightbulb was moved to three different fire houses. The lightbulb was manufactured by Shelby lamp company in Ohio. The Guinness book of world records regularly checks in on the lightbulb to confirm that it is still the longest burning lightbulb in the world.

You need to see it before it’s gone! Fun place to go as it is located inside the fire station. You may also get an opportunity to support the fire department and get educated on the fire trucks.

Its a very simple attraction but very interesting. Theres lots of information about the bulb and the fire station there.

It's the world's longest running light bulb!.... And that's about it. I'll be honest, it's cool to see but they don't have a gift shop or much on display. It's at a working firehouse so the guys on staff may or may not be there. Be weary of that before you make any major plans to head over there. That's about it. It's a cool thing to see and you can watch the live feed of the bulb online if that intrigues you but I wouldn't say it's a "Must see" Attraction. Instructions: When you get there, you can park on the East or North side of the building. Then you need to walk up in front of the building, head west, walk past the two big garage doors, and ring the doorbell next to the person sized door. From there, you'll walk back to the garage door closest to the East and they'll open it up for you. And special hint, ask about how they deal with Forest Fires. The guy seemed more interested in talking about that than the lightbulb. And it's actually interesting how they approach a forest fire too.

Light has been on since 1901. The firemen (bless them) were amicable.

Went today, 10/10 the firefighters were kind and we chatted about my NY Cubans Negro League jersey. There's a guest book to sign. It's about a 10 minute stop at most, but, if you like this kind of stuff, it's worth the stop.

Not exactly exciting but c'mon it's cool as hell. If you're near by you gotta check it out. Its be lit longer than we've been able to fly.

If you love wine—or even if you’re just starting to explore it—you have to check out First Street Wine Company! With over 320 different wines, they have something for every taste, from rich, bold reds to crisp, refreshing whites and unique bottles you won’t find just anywhere. Their tasting events are a must! They bring in wineries from all over, making it an amazing way to discover new favorites. But what truly sets them apart is their welcoming atmosphere—whether you’re a serious wine enthusiast or just someone who enjoys a good glass, they treat everyone like an old friend. No pressure, no pretense—just great wine, great people, and a great time. If you’re in Livermore, don’t miss out on this gem! Stop by for a tasting, and you might just walk out with a new favorite bottle (or a few).

My family and I have been loyal patrons of First Street Wine Company for years — and for good reason! Their wine selection is incredible, with options to suit every palate, and the pricing is just right. What truly sets this place apart, though, is the warm, welcoming atmosphere and the amazing team behind the counter. We always go for the wine flights, and they never disappoint. The perfectly paired cheeses and chocolates elevate the entire experience, making each visit feel special. Clive, the owner, is an absolute gem — incredibly knowledgeable, down-to-earth, and genuinely passionate about what he does. His expertise and friendly demeanor make every visit even more enjoyable. Thank you, Clive and team, for creating such a wonderful space for locals like us to enjoy. You’ve made First Street Wine Company a true community favorite!

Went here once as it's a little out of our way to travel to. We went in because it advertised mimosas on the little black board that's kept outside. Did not disappoint. Staff was super friendly and kind and they even let us stay a little passed closing as it was a really nice day out. I love the cute little patio they have outside which was great to enjoy the live music being played a few shops down.

Best wine bar in Livermore. You MUST come by to see their selection.

Friendly family owned wine bar. I've had a subscription to they're wine club for years and its always a fantastic selection. They're happy to educate you if you have any questions and the prices are always reasonable.

Great place. Very friendly environment. Great wine flight specials. It is a lot like Cheers, where everyone knows your name (or they will once Sam introduces you to the other customers).

The owners are really friendly and know their wine! We spent hours outside with their fancy misting fan drinking their delicious wine, and loved every second of it.

For the lighter beers; 3 stars. But for the darker beers and service; 5 stars. It is worth a stop if you are in the area. A large tap list with a variety of styles, although of the 12 tasters we had, I remember 2 being noteworthy. (My partner enjoyed the darker, barrel aged beers he had). We were both disappointed that they no longer have a patio/outdoor area.

Great beer with an awesome venue! Plenty of space and cool fixtures. Pretty unique beers (the Spruce was my favorite!). Decent menu and super friendly and knowledgeable staff. Definitely worth a stop if you are in the area.

Have you ever been to a brewery and bought beer to go, but didn't realize how amazing their beer was until you got home. Then wishing you bought more. This was my personal experience with Shadow Puppet Brewing. The West coast style blood orange lupi IPA was fantastic. No wonder they won a gold medal in the 2021 USA beer rating on this exact beer. This brewery has a great selection of beers. They range from: kettle sour / ipas / oatmeal stouts / Porter / desert Stout/ cream ale and barley wine. The outside of the brewery looks like all the rest of the industrial buildings in the area. It's unassuming and plain looking on the outside, but be prepared to be wowed once you enter inside the brewery. The inside of the brewery has a fun and upscale vibe. It is obvious a lot of thought and planning went into this brewery's layout. It could be a great date spot, if there were outdoor games to enjoy on the patio. Also, a leather couch would be a great addition for the couples that want to get cozy. I would recommend the brewery brag about their prestigious beer medals. Especially, if someone isn't sure of which beer to pick. By recommending some of your award-winning beers, it would be a great selling point to customers to buy beers to go as well.

I had the wonderful opportunity to stop by this hidden gem yesterday afternoon. Any great establishment that wants to be successful starts with the staff and this place exceeded my expectations. I was immediately greeted by Lisa, who was friendly, knowledgeable and eager to help me choose a beer. They have an excellent selection to appeal to everyone's taste. I then Met Dennis who was stocking the refrigerator. He was very kind, and answered many of my questions. He also offered me a sample of the blood orange which was delicious. Dennis is the owners father and we had some great conversation. Lisa came by checked on me and my Lush Nectar which is delicious. She then suggested I try the "Lupi" which is another outstanding choice and I opted to take a 4pack home. I could not have been happier with the cool vibe, friendly customers, and a staff that provides top notch, welcoming hospitality. I would love to add that was my first time visiting. You will be very pleased throughout your stay! Cheers!

Love going there! Lisa is an Amazing bartender (Ray of sunshine) yesterday the celebration was to died for food, band, and Sweets! Just terrific! So clean! The owner was everywhere! Part of the crew💕💕💕! Took time to lingo to each and one of us😊regulars or not!

Bring your own food or come visit a food truck. This place is fabulous. Great spot to hang. Have a beer. Watch sports. Enjoy! They even offer $3 5oz pours. You can try the WHOLE menu!

One of my favorite breweries in town! I used to come here for trivia nights, back when you could do that sort of thing...before the plague. I'm glad they are still in business and producing beers to-go. You can order beers online for pickup, or walk-in and place your order. I really love their "Lush" and "Lupi" series of beers, as well as their Needle Tips, Shadowbox and many others. They sell their beers in cans, bottles crowlers and growlers.

I went to the drive-thru today and the person taking my order has no customer service skills whatsoever. When I pulled up the window I don't get a smile or "hi". Everyone working there looks so miserable. Then to top it off, I get no cinnamon on my churros. Kinda defeats the purpose of churros..

Finally had the chance to try the Smashed Burger to my delight! Better meat, heavier patties and thoroughly stuffed after eating it.

Fries are really dry it feels like made in afternoon they are serving it now both burger chicken patty was really dry like too old cooked worst place I recommend no one to order from here totally wastage of money

The Ultimate cheeseburger in my munchy meal was really really poorly made. Everything else was fine I guess but the highlight of the meal was an ultimate let down. Only good thing about this place is that it's open 24hrs. But don't expect anything nice in between a bun.

I didn't get out of the car.

The 24 hour drive through is closed again at 4:45am, 12/23/2022 and building is empty. Drive through entrance barricaded with wooden pallets. This happens far to frequently. I'm giving up on this place and will start getting breakfast elsewhere when I get closer to work. What's the point of advertising that the drive through is open 24 hours if it's not going to be open 24 hours? Please, just be honest about your hours of operation.

When you need tacos at 2am, this is your place.

Good beer & great atmosphere! Staff was friendly and knowledgable. Both kid & dog friendly. Can bring in your own food or purchase snacks like gold fish or chips/salsa. Loved that they offered flights so you can taste a few & figure out which is your favorite.

Really friendly people and way, laid back venue. None of their beers particularly jumped out at me, but they have a solid start! If you prefer to keep things simple and avoid the trendy crowd then this place would work for you.

Nice, large space with plenty of comfortable seating. There was a large variety of beer to choose from, so we had trouble narrowing down our options! They had a bunch of games for people to play to pass the time. Some had brought in outside food. Kid friendly. Would definitely go back!

What a great looking brewery! The decor is has a great airy feel and there is plenty of seating for people. They are also dog and kid friendly, with a whole bunch of games to choose from. The beer is good, I got a 4 beer sampler and enjoyed all 4 of my beers with the standout being the California Cluster Revival Pale Ale.

Wonderful experience all around. As we walked in we were greeted and offered menus. A quick glance at the menu showed me that I would need a few minutes to put my flight together. While sitting at the bar, I wasn't pressured into making a quick decision, but offered help if I needed it. The beer was great, and we had an excellent conversation with the brewmaster while were were enjoying his products. The atmosphere was friendly, the space was open and light, and very kid-friendly. I will definitely return soon.

A very comfortable place to taste and enjoy very good beer. We love the friendly service, games, the art work, and of course the beer. It's also nice to be up close with the brewery equipment and the brewer himself. Thanks for the tour!

2nd brewery we visited in Livermore and we were impressed with the selections, especially the coffee dark ale they had, best tasting beer I have ever had. The location was pet friendly and had ample space and TVs to catch your favorite game and the scenery was great with the brewing happening right there in front of you. Check it out when you are in the area for sure.

Excellent winery and distillery. They offer tastings of wine AND spirits. Definitely my favorite winery in Livermore.

Michael was very nice...knew his product well. We really liked Ensemble.

fine wines and distilled spirits in one place. Check out the absinthe!

Nothing fancy, but the folks are friendly and accommodating.

I came for the pinball machines, and they were mostly good condition, one machine (cactus canyon) had a broken right flipper, and I'd loaded an arcade card so I could play them all, but only the Beatles machine card reader even actually worked, so I had to then get more money, turn it to quarters and play. Now having this extra money on the card, we tried out their vast arcade which was a lot of fun, but their was several broken machines, the claw machines were all practically empty, and the air hockey table was practically impossible to play on. The bowling alley itself wasn't anything to write home about, but if you live in the area, it might be th best you got

Terrible experience! The staff member at the bowling alley was extremely rude and disrespectful. She yelled because a ball rolled into the side lane — even though it was a 4-year-old child playing for the first time and clearly didn’t understand the game. Her attitude scared both of my daughters and made them cry. She also lied, saying she had already explained the rules to us twice, which was not true. The first time, the ball appeared before we even started our game, and the second time she came over just to shout. When I asked why she was speaking to us that way, she simply said, "That’s my style," and never apologized. I even spoke to the manager, and still—no apology. We will never come back to this place again. Very disappointing .

Multiple bowling lanes and arcade place. We visited the place with family on weekend. The place was full. We took $60 per hour package. It was amazing fun. One can buy food. The restrooms are clean.

Overall, it’s a bowling alley, so it is what it is. The only issue we have is the height limit for the bumpers. Our 10 year old is not the best at bowling and to consistently get gutter balls is not exactly encouraging for him. It doesn’t make him want to try harder, just makes the experience horrible for the family. We will have to drive further to another bowling alley that won’t discourage him with the height limit.

Very rude and condescending male receptionist. He was very short tempered and had no respect for me. The staff should undergo re training. He can be identified as having short black hair and light brown skin, around 200 lbs. It is not recommend to talk to him.

Grenada Bowl continues to be awesome as always! I have loved bowling here for over 30yrs. Isabel and Taylor are fantastic and always make us feel welcome. Great fun family friendly good time!

Mid ash bowling alley 😭😭🙏🙏 Lane conditions are wayyyy too oily, house shot is dogshit and receptionist at front always seems to be in a bad mood, go to Earl Anthony bowl in dublin instead

We’d like to especially thank the folks who served us, Marissa & Derrel, they were very kind and accommodating to our party. Derrel is an excellent server! We appreciate all the friendly staff, as well, at Da Boccery. I was offered help with placing and moving our party supplies, a staff member so kindly put my homemade cupcakes in the fridge, another staff member offered me tape because I was struggling with some balloons. Your restrooms are also very clean, I was very pleased with that and the diaper changing table. Thank you for that! Those details don’t go unnoticed.It was my husband and I’s first time there, we were really pleased!! I could imagine management is very proud of the current staff. You have a great establishment! God bless you guys.

I think bocce is an excellent activity for company team building - it's easy-to-learn, also helps your brain to create strategic thinking 😆

Had such a fun time!! Our server Darrell was so great accommodating our group of 8. Loved all the food especially the bulgogi fries and drinks were great. We were new to bocce and the guy running activities explained it perfectly and was cheerful and helpful. The ambience of the outdoor court especially is nice with pretty vines and a covered court but designed to still let light in. We also did the golf simulator but what’s helpful to know is that it’s not just golf, there are lots of game options you can toggle through which worked out better for our group with smaller kids (soccer & basketball for example were a lot easier than golf) so that was a pleasant surprise! I also appreciated that the music was never too loud, enough for ambience but you can still have conversation/fun.

The service was great. The people go above and beyond. The food however is another story. I ordered the chicken and waffles. The waffle was under cooked and very nasty. I had three of my friends at the table taste it and we all agreed it was bad. We sent it back for another to make it more crunchy. And crunchy it was because it had a nickel sized egg shell in it. Omg

Fun place overall. The drinks are great, the wine selection needs Wood Family Chardonnay but is otherwise great. The food is amazing! Their chef has done an amazing job creating a diverse food menu. Stay for axe throwing which was our favorite activity.

We came here for axe throwing for my sister’s bachelorette. It was amazing!! The food was great, easy reservations. The service was next level - Katherine was the absolute sweetest and so so attentive. She remembered my sister’s fiancé’s name and their wedding date!

Pretty fun place with lots of activities. Arcade, foot pool, shuffleboard, axe throwing, and bocce ball. Reservations can be made for larger groups, and activities are inside and outside. There are heaters outside for the cold weather, but it doesn't keep you as warm unless you're standing right under it. Waivers must he signed using a qr code before axe throwing. Axe throwing was fun. Staff was friendly and was checking in on and off. Each activity had a time limit before we got rotated with a different group.

The Press in Livermore is a bustling brunch spot that hits the sweet spot between quality food, good vibes, and efficient service. Despite the long line at the entrance, the staff kept things moving quickly and we were inside and placing our order faster than expected. The ordering system is mostly self-service, guests order at the counter and grab a number which adds to the efficiency and lets you find your preferred seat right away. Both the indoor and outdoor seating areas are bright, airy, and inviting. The interior has a modern, clean look with a relaxed café vibe, while the outdoor area is great for soaking in the Livermore sunshine. The food was fresh and flavorful. The biscuit sandwich with egg and sausage was hearty and satisfying, and the Warm Honey Milk Toast was a standout with sweet berries, floral accents, and a perfect scoop of cream. Pairing it with a latte rounded off a fantastic morning meal. The menu offers a nice variety from savory to sweet, with seasonal specials and thoughtful options for different tastes. Service was smooth, and the staff stayed upbeat and attentive, even with a packed house. The pastry display was also tempting, and the Coffee Nutella Bread Pudding is now on my list for next time. Overall, The Press is a must-visit if you’re in downtown Livermore looking for a vibrant brunch experience with great coffee and food that delivers. Get there early it’s popular for a reason!

Super unique lovely menu, really great food, service, and interior. Their seasonal specials were the absolute best too. Perfect stop, especially if you’re passing through on the way to the I-5!

So fresh and delicious. Homemade tortillas, bread sausage everything was great. Wish there were more places to est like this everywhere. Prices were wonderful and not over priced at all

The food was solid—I'd give it 4 out of 5. However, the service needs improvement. While a long line of customers was waiting, some staff were busy chatting about what they wanted to eat on their break instead of helping guests. Rather than socializing, they could have opened another register to speed things up. They only seemed attentive when the tip screen appeared. One staff member was wearing an extremely low-cut shirt, which felt inappropriate for a café setting—maybe wearing an apron could help with professionalism. On a positive note, the server who brought out the food was friendly and professional.

Had a fresh brunch at this beautiful and small location in Livermore downtown. The food was yum, fresh and absolutely great for the weather. I am definitely going back.

A Beautiful little restaurant! They have the best avocado toast! The only problem I have with it is that it is a little bit noisy. There are two of these not far from each other, so if you order online make sure not to go to the wrong one!

The best cafe to have good artisan sandwiches …Tried shakshuka and jalapeno biscuit both were delicious … also they have good IPAs … the service is very quick .

I enjoy popping in from time to time and have had nothing but pleasant experiences. The store is very nostalgic and fun to browse through. So much variety in every genre. I love all the little collectibles at the front, there’s something new every time I stop by!

DO NOT COME HERE TO BUY POKEMON CARDS. They are selling most products like ETBs for double retail price. This shop is no better than scalpers online. It's sad to see a local business trying to maximize profits off kids who just want to collect cards. Even selling at retail price stores can make plenty of profit so there is no reason other than greed to be selling at "market price." Take your business and kids elsewhere.

This awesome shop is a treasure trove of everything! Not just tons of comics, they've got action figures, trading cards, graphic novels, board games, t-shirts, mystery bag/box figures, and of course tons of Funko pop figurines. They get new stuff in all the time, so there's always new things to explore. SO MUCH COOL STUFF! The owner is very nice and it's been awesome to support a small but long-standing business. Definitely check it out!!

Pretty rough recently. Normally the go to spot but dealing with Bob is now out of hand. Was in today browsing and looking at open boxes on the floor. Bob starts yelling at us to not touch that. We say it’s open and he says in the rudest way possible that he doesn’t care. I don’t care if you’re 75 years old. I don’t go to any other store and can’t buy something out on shelves, so if it’s not for sale move it off the floor. If you can’t do a job don’t do it anymore, sorry. I’ve helped pick up boxes, put items back in order to help and even picked up the bike rack outside when he asked because it’s the right thing to do but now we will not going back and posting a review feels now like the right thing to do. Unfortunately when you’re too old to work you turn into a total jerk to the people paying your bills. Hire someone new or lighten up because it’s not our fault your store is a mess or too cheap to hire someone to clean up the shop, you’re charging market for Pokemon cards so it can’t be that. He usually has great finds but dealing with Bob now is out of hand, being old doesn’t give you an excuse to be rude, crotchety, and just a bad person to people who come in happy and want to leave happier and now dealing with Bob you leave sad.

Love this comic book shop! Ever since moving to Livermore this became my go-to comic shop. Not necessarily a whole lot of options, but regardless, its a great place. It's definitely overwhelming the first time you walk in, with stuff all over and tight rows to walk down, but there's an extremely wide assortment of items to pick from, so it's all worth it! There's anything from actions figures to statues to comics to graphic novels, posters, Pops, key chains, kids books, etc. Pricing is reasonable. I've honestly seen an array of items priced cheaper, on point, or more expensive than their online counterparts. When it comes to the more expensive items, sometimes its just worth that in hand purchase experience. The owner is usually always holding down the fort and is easy to talk with. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comic book store around Livermore!

Good collection including NBA players

I met Stan Lee @ Fantasy books and games, I believe it was 1991 or 1992. I was 12 years old. One of the most fondest childhood memories and experiences of my life. I am so happy to see they are still open!

It was pretty empty during lunch hours on Sunday, ordered channa bhature, bhature were really good , channa was a bit oily. Also, ordered fish tikka (really good) and mutter panner and stuffed Naan and everything was tasty. The place is probably good for drinks on a Friday night, they seemed to have more of a pub vibe then a restaurant vibe.

Was here for the Super Bowl. Happy hour deals are really good. I recommend the wings. They arnt dry. Cheap Bottle less mimosa are ++ but make sure u say bottom less before u order. We were charge for the first round plus the bottle less.

Customer service just forget about it. Gave this place a try. Food was not that great beside gol gappe. Dishes they served food in looked like they never washed it. Not worth the hype

Overpriced for what you get, $14 for a small portion of curry and no rice. But the only plainish rice is rice pilaf but that doesn't sound good with the curries. Overall spent $70 delivered for 3 curries, a soup, and 2 naan flavors, no rice. Butter curry had a nice flavor but the lamb was bone in and very spicy. Not sure what the reviews about it being bland are about.

Went here on a Sunday afternoon and they were not prepared for customers. They were open for 3 hours and told us they were still setting up. There was only 1 other customer in the restaurant and it still took them 20mon to come to us. Was looking forward to the avocado pakoras but they’ve been out for some time, which is their ONLY unique item. The gol gappe were good which gives me the 1 star. The service is terrible.

Great food. Good service. Awesome location. Couldn't have asked for more!!

My review about this place is not just my opinion and experience but the fact about this place. If you want to enjoy good food and have a good time with your family or friends, please stay away from this place. We went there on a weekday evening; the place was not busy, we still had to wait over an hour for our food. When we finally got the food, it was cold, some of the dishes were sour, and nan bread was not done correctly and was stale. We started eating and politely presented the issue to the server and requested that the nan bread be properly done when she brings the next batch. She never returned, we waited almost 45 minutes, and finally, we went to the register to the manager/owner; we just paid and left without finishing. Although after paying, we also briefly mentioned quality concerns in their food to the manager/owner. The manager/owner's behavior and body language towards us dictated that he knew what was going on from the beginning; probably, he is the one who may have told the server to ignore us. The manager offered (pretending to do a big favor) to waive the charges for one of the dishes, although we didn't ask him to waive off any charges. Waiving off for a dish or even the whole check was not the purpose; our evening was already ruined with the frustration they caused us. I doubt if people running this place are so dumb or senseless about such poor quality food and service. They think that the customers are idiots and take us for granted, assuming that most won't even notice. They believe most of the customers are there just for drinks and won't even care. I feel bad for the customers of other ethnicities who don't know about Indian food, and owners of this place are just ripping them off with poor quality food. Or if it's just the self-hate in the Punjabi community, where we treat everyone else with respect, kindness, and gratitude except our people. Whatever the case is, this place sucks and deserves a negative rating.

The divest of the dive bars. "Smokey"? More like it stinks of old cigars and cigarette butts. It has the look and feel of death's waiting room in the movie Beetlejuice. If you like Jerry Garcia look-alike waiters and 1940s Miami motel settings, this is your place. Can't believe indoor smoking is allowed here 🤔🤔

Our favorite dive in town. Juke box and darts. Only wish they had a pool table.

Really rude people as customers. Bartender and management. I am honestly advising to think twice before you go there.

Chill bar. Fun place for a drink... No food... CHEERS

Tonight they were rude. I was not served and moved on.

Excellent bartenders, and the atmosphere feels like home. I have lived here in Livermore since 2013 and this was the first bar I ever went to. One thing I wish they had was a pool table, but they make up for it with an ATM on site a very new jukebox, as well as a electronic dart board. Occasionally on Friday nights they have small live venues to promote the kids trying to come up in the music world. Great spot, check it out.

Great Dive Bar, and is well known by locals. If you want a sense of old Livermore before the winebars and tap houses came around head here. Small, smokey and full of locals. I love the scene but maybe not for everyone.

Great atmosphere Good beer Awesome music on Memorial Day!! Thank you Chris Rogers. Amazing voice! Cool food truck -HP Taco Truck…Fusion tacos

Great spot for some cold beer and live music on the weekends. They have food and bocci ball. Board games and corn hole too. It can be hot , but many tables have umbrellas for shade. All seating is outdoors except for a one table inside but not much atmosphere inside.

This place is awesome! Great beers and great ambiance. Fantastic and exceptional service today thank you to Mike and Jen! They are awesome. Both did a fantastic job of making good recommendations… this place has beautiful sunsets, is pet and family friendly. Also has a rotating food truck usually. Everything from tacos to burgers to pizza. They just made a stage and also have bocce ball playing areas. Also every weekend you are bound to see some cool cars here. Come check it out!

I had a great time at Homegrown Hops Brewing! Dave, our bartender, was super helpful and gave excellent beer recommendations. The sour beer I had hit the spot plus the staff was really friendly. I'm excited to return on a sunny day!

Nice little brewery to hit up before or after camping at Dell Valle Regional Park! Very relaxed venue, with outdoor games for fun!

Came here for a few beers and had a great time talking to one of the owners. The beers were good, and they do sell growlers to-go. I am looking forward to when they are fully setup and open for business.

We stopped by after boating at Lake Del Valle, to hear our friends band "Dustbowl Travelers" play. The service was great and the Amber Ale was tasty. 😁 Thanks again David.

Male security puts his hands on me because he was so drunk and was on a MAJOR power trip saying the people in the back EXIT had main priority when this same security kicked me and my sister out for coming through the back. The bar tender with man bun had to check him to call down. This is ridiculous given that he fully lets minors in.

Such a fun night at this local gem! We showed up for bingo and drinks. I loved that bingo was 7:30-9:30, so I wasn't out too late on a weekday night The bartender was super attentive and made sure we had drinks in hand without even having to leave our table. Great vibes, friendly staff, and a perfect spot for a mom's night out. Can't wait to go back!

If could give them 0 star i would, one of the guys in the bar rushed us to finish the pool game before 9pm after we had already paid for the game

Best bar you can go to when it comes to downtown Livermore

Sat at the bar for about 15 minutes before we were acknowledged and then another 15 for our drink orders. After the 1st round became easier to get the next couple of rounds. Music was really good.

Fun spot for great music and drink. I always have a great time at railroad. The security and bartenders are always great. They get super busy so sometimes the lube can take a minute, but it's worth the wait.

Great place to drink and dance with your friends. They have a cool DJ playing music and it's a small place hence if you come late you might have to wait in line to get in. There's no food served here and they are open till 2 am.

This place is s hidden gem! I've only done brunch here but the food was very good and their bottomless mimosas come in a fish bowl sized glass. They also have really col and interesting Mimosa flights. It is busy on a weekend morning but has a nice atmosphere. They don't have a traditional bloody Mary but they do a good take on a Michelada.

Staff were very friendly and prompt to our needs without us asking. We went to brunch on a Sunday and the food was outstanding! We had the champagne flights and they were sooo good. They gave you 5 of them served on your own wooden tray for the glasses to fit in and then there was a chalkboard where the name of each one was written and also told you what flavor each drink was. This is definitely an awesome place to come for brunch and mimosas.

This place has a good atmosphere but the food was not very impressive. Good but not great. The wines are extremely high priced around 12-14$/glass. Very limited seating as well. We had tried this place when it was The Artists Table and the food has improved a bit but still not sure we will go back. Tried the baked brie, hummus, and caprese flat bread.

The Banks Vault is a new spot that replaced The Artistic Table. Wonderful people, fantastic selection of beers and wine and yummy small plates! The mimosa flights and brunch is awesome!! Not to mention the new owner is incredibly nice and SO friendly!

Nice, intimate space for hanging out w/ some friends. The beer selection was solid with a variety of options, all from localish brewers. The Hosue wine was decent as well according to the people who were drinking it :) We also tried the tater tots and they were good.

All Day Happy Hour on Wednesdays! $2 off all pints, and select glasses of wine only $5. Loved their selection of drinks-- featured a lot of local favorites (that aren't Wente or Concannon) including the fabulous Mia Napote cab! We didn't get to try any of the food, but it all looked delicious. We'll be back for the bacon wrapped jalapenos! The atmosphere was a little lacking, but it was intimate and the service was attentive. Can't wait to go back!

Centrally located in downtown Livermore. This place has a cool menu with nice wine AND beer selection. The building has a real bank vault in the back! Added bonus if you attend an evening with live music.

I recommend you read their reviews on yelp carefully. After being overcharged significantly for “drinks” aka a big tip for the bartender, I was assaulted (punched in the face) by the bouncer as I was leaving. Many better options in Livermore! Don’t waste you’re time.

Do not come here with a credit card or pay anything by card. Bartenders will swipe your card and charge you more than what you paid for even if you leave a tip by cash. It's highly unethical business practice even if a bartender feels entitled to a tip. I have to call my bank now because of an additional charge.

Don’t go to this place. Their employees were trying to fight with my friends for no reason. It’s not a safe place to be in. Venues employees have guns and they are doing drugs while working. Please be careful at venue if you do wanna go there. Worst place in Livermore.

I have bartenderd for over 36 years from Vegas to L.A. This place is ruined by its customers muscling customers in the parking lot. I'm total inbaresed for its bar staff and owners or maybe that is what they are wanting I'm not sure. But there is no future for this bar

B careful. Gave $50 bill and was almost short changed by $30 until i yelled at Ms. Bartender that I gave her a $50!!! Then I got correct change.

Had a good experience. I tipped cash and paid with a card. Someone decided to tip themselves a significant amount extra. Proceed with caution.

Cool space, but the DJ was mediocre at best. Definitely attracts a good crowd though

This is a great place to go have some wine tasting the atmosphere is amazing, staff incredibly friendly and the wine is absolutely perfect.

Great wine and great folks. We've been enjoying their wines from the beginning and have watched their growth into a multi-award-winning winery rivaling the best N. California has to offer. Jeff, his son Colin and their entire team make everyone feel like family. They have something for every wine palate. We have taken all our out-of-town wine-drinking friends who visit the Bay Area to NC, most of whom became members themselves, so they can enjoy Nottingham wines regularly! If you haven't experienced their wines, what are you waiting for?!

A great selection of wines from the North Bay can be found in Livermore. An amazing selection that's not to be missed if you're ever in the Livermore area.

Good wine made from grapes sourced locally. Free tasting with purchase of two bottles.

My friend and I had such a lovely time here this past weekend. Every single wine on the tasting list was delicious. I can’t believe I didn’t come home with a case! It’s a nice spot and friendly staff.

Every industry needs nimble and hungry competitors to keep the big guys on their toes. NC is it. The staff and vision for this relatively small offering is larger than life. 10 years from now I will read this review and be jealous that I was here when it all started. Solid Cab offering, but also GSM and their other brands round out the effort. Tasting Room staff is fun and knowledgeable. Whatever the Block at East End is called in the future this is the group that fanned the flames.

Had an excellent experience here, wines were tasty, the tastes were generous and the selection was very educational. The setting was also very comfortable.

The outside patio area was a great spot to enjoy our food and drinks, under the cool shade of the trees. The service was also friendly, prompt, and accurate. The food, though the presentation was nice, was not as flavorful as I had hoped. We also ordered two beers, but both were guest taps so I can't speak to the quality of their beers.

Fantastic people and space but the food is not great. I want to return for the great servers, experience, and people. I thought the mushroom tacos were a great concept but were tasteless and oily in reality. The beer chips were fresh made and cold while the accompanying dip was almost solid. The beer was fine but there wasn't a lot of variety. I recommend Pennyweight for a large group that is not very hungry because the space is fantastic with a great atmosphere but it needs to improve their food offerings.

I'm not a beer drinker so I don't hit pubs frequently. Went here for a team event. It was fun. Service was really good. Avacado tacos were delightful to the palate. Staff were very friendly. Great vibes indoors and outdoors.

This is the place to go for beer and chilling. Tons of seating indoor and outdoor seating. Their original beers are smooth. I especially like their milk stout. Food options are mostly fried. I had the fried cauliflower, mac n cheese, and avotacos. I reccommend the fried cauliflower. Parking is limited, but there is a parking structure to the right of the building and its a quick walk over.

Everything about this place is fantastic. The beer, the food, and the vibes. Awesome outdoor beer garden setup and wide range of high quality craft brews, but they also serve guest drafts as well. This is a solid great brewery on its own, but it also serves as a great community establishment for Livermore

I came here for a cycling event and had a great time. I really enjoyed their porter and milk stout. The space is awesome and I like the upstairs seating area. I look forward to when they are finished with the building and open for business.

Excelent service, food was delicious I'm still trying to figure out what type of dressing they use on the salad it was so yummy and refreshing!
