A warm, community-rooted coffee bar in Old Oakland with in-house roasted coffee and generously built sandwiches — the pulled pork is the local favorite.

A Black-owned Oakland institution since 1973, Everett & Jones serves oak-smoked ribs, hot links, and brisket with legendary house sauce — plus live blues in the Jack London Square music hall.

One of America's last great piano bars, going since 1933 near Lake Merritt. Nightly live piano sing-alongs, business-card-covered walls, strong drinks, and classic American fare.

A West Oakland cult favorite serving bike-wheel-sized wood-fired sourdough pizzas. Short menu, big lines, unforgettable crust. Reservations strongly recommended.

An Alameda burger favorite on Park Street with Food Network cred, serving East Coast-style burgers on challah, Nashville hot chicken, and a chopped NY hero — with a bar next door.

Our on-site Mexican food truck, parked right by the hotel, serving tacos, tortas, pupusas, and a famously forearm-sized Super Burrito — fresh, friendly, and steps from your room.
