Mona Al-ghusseinAugust 1, 2016The out door sitting area is cheerful and it's a cool place to hang out with family and friends. The pizzas are original and their Veggie pizza is a delight. The decor is welcoming. I do recommend

Great spot to work from in the afternoon. Power outlets and bag hooks at every seat at the bar.- Tara MedeirosSeptember 19, 2016Top spot for pizza in Oakland, outdoor space with fire pits and string lights perfect venue for beers with friends.
BourbonautJune 18, 2018Get the Frito Pie which has steak chili, bacon fondue, cheddar, onion, pickled peppers and of course Fritos. It is great to pair with the darker,maltier beers.
Edmund BoeyApril 17, 2018The lunch menu doesn't start till 12.30! Everything is great, nice environment, beermosas yay!
Nathan JSeptember 20, 2019The go to place for first timers in Oakland. Good food and great beer. Korean pizza is incredible. Duck confit is also worth trying. Can get busy with a long wait during peak times.- BourbonautJune 18, 2018Ideal spot in Oakland for Drake’s craft beers and great food. This place is as close to perfect as you can get.
Thinh VuFebruary 5, 2017Great place to hangout with friends, and an amazing selection of beer. Can get really crowded though, so service becomes shoddy. Expect some wait time for food and drinks.
Peter CybulskiDecember 7, 2015Great beer selection and very cool space. It's called the dealership because it used to be the site of an old Buick dealership.
Great selection of Drake's beers. Duck gravy poutine. Pizzas. Fantastic outdoor beer garden.
JJanuary 23, 2016Ok, so, the pizza here is really good. I recommend The 89 Pizza. It's very saucy and meaty. If you're a lover of hearty italian food its for you.
Chuck CoulsonSeptember 15, 2017Great beers on tap (Drake's and Guest) in a cool setting. Great food options as well. Kid and dog friendly.
Joshua DoonanSeptember 23, 2017Great beer and ice cream. Try the barrel aged offerings, they even have a barrel flight to help try several!
Get the Hella Helles Lager or the Silent Duck Saison. Perfect for day drinking.
Brian LSeptember 7, 2016Amazing beer selection, giant outdoor patio, nice atmosphere AND decent food... I kind of want to live here.
BikaboutApril 11, 2019Wood fired pizza and beer in an old dealership complex with a great outdoor garden.
If it's raining and you're like "I wonder if Drake's has any indoor seating" the answer is YES and it is COZY.
Alex DobyanOctober 7, 2017Beautiful beers in a beautiful space. Unsurprisingly hugely popular with the local yuppies.
Nick CollinsDecember 28, 2016Beer selection is superb and staff attentive. Try to get a seat by the fire.
Christian BakerJuly 16, 2016Indoor bar seating and outdoor benches by the fire pits are open seating. Tables are seated by groups.
- Island BruinFebruary 10, 2016They carry other craft beers besides their own. Excellent rotating selection
Great place for groups! Get the garlic fries and pizza for a fine time.
The 1500 or the denogginizer... You can't go wrong with either beer.
VansiApril 1, 2016It's loud and takes a while to get a table on the weekend. But the beers decent and it's a nice place to chill.- Great place for happy hour in an outdoors beer garden area
- Get a pizza with an egg on it. Get beer with beer on it.
Awesome outdoor area. All of the drakes beer on tap.
Get the pizza and a 7x70, gets a bit packed on the weekend.

"Tucked between Impact HUB and Calavera is this fantastic new coffee shop inside a shipping container. Flat White and Cortado / Gibralter are my drinks of choice here. Little bit of seating too."

"Try the pizza - it's uniquely thin and crispy with a crust that's slightly sweet / fried. Creative seasonal toppings were pleasing."
Scott Rocher - 8.1
"It's a gallery, art bar, classic car showroom, and biergarten with ping pong and vegan pub food. (What?) I recommend the rosé, the Brussels sprouts and the 1978 Benz. File under: chill af."
