Uptown Oakland
Uptown is a relatively new neighborhood in Oakland. Part of Downtown Oakland, Uptown’s loose boundary is Grand Avenue to the north, Telegraph to the west, Broadway to the East, and 17th street to the south. Heart of Uptown is 20th and Broadway.
Uptown Oakland is also known for its nightlife renaissance. Featuring a wide lineup of chic bars, hip art community and numerous music venues, no night will certainly be dull in Uptown Oakland. You can start your night by enjoying coffee at the Farley’s East and by visiting the famous Oakland Art Murmur during the first Friday of the month. You can also enjoy small-plate menus and sips of wine at the Franklin Square Restaurant and Wine Bar then hit Ozumo for their happy hour to take advantage of cheaper drinks and bar bites from 4:30 in the afternoon to 7:oo in the evening. For dinner, you can proceed to the neighboring Pican Restaurant or Flora. You have a wide array of options for post-dinner entertainment. You can enjoy the great shows at the Fox Theater or you can dance the night away at the 1000-square feet dance floor in Luka’s Taproom or at the two-storey lounge and dance club of Paradiso. You can also visit Somar Bar & Lounge, Mimosa Champagne Lounge and Mua. Other points of interest in the neighborhood include 19th Street Bart, Cafe Van Kleef, GWPC Climbing Gym, Uptown Night Club, and most recently Bakesale Betty. Last year, I attended the first Uptown neighborhood festival.
