Oakland Local will host a Dive Bar Holiday Drinkup on Dec. 16 at our favorite (so far) Oakland dive bar, Kingfish Pub & Cafe in the Temescal neighborhood (near 51st & Claremont, just off Telegraph). 

12/15 Update: We have 25 people signed up--come join the fun--and dig the shuffleboard, madness & popcorn.

RSVP NOW on our Meetup.com group.

We use the term "dive bar" with great affection and respect. To us, a great dive bar is about low-key local flavor and people. It's accessible and welcoming to folks of any class, age, race, and ethnicity. And it's cheap!

Kingfish is all of these...
