Room 389 - Oakland

Nice place with a great atmosphere. In dry January. They were able to fulfill my wishes for low and/or no ABV drinks.

So I have had this spot bookmarked for years. And I am so glad I finally made it! I love it here. The music was groovy, the drinks were great , service was excellent, crowd was cool. I had gin and grapefruit with real pink grapefruit. Such a fan of real grapefruit! Next time I want to try the warm apple cider. This is gonna be one of my go to spots now. The lighting inside makes it so cozy. Would love to come here with a group of friends and chill on the couch seating in the back. Plenty of parking when I was there. Bathroom was clean. Enjoy.

Best cocktails! My friend said, that 's the smoothest margarita I 've ever had . Great place to chill, more lounge than bar great!

All-around good. The cocktails are great, and I really like their special blend coffee, which is infused with cinnamon and is delicious!

I have been here a few times this winter, in the afternoon on weekdays or early evenings on the weekends, I've never really been there for the late evening crowd which I understand leans more into being a cocktail bar experience. In the world of cafés plus bar combinations it can be hard to find anywhere that strikes that balance, let alone one that executes it as well as Room 389.*Drinks*My experience there has been consistently positive because of the bartenders who can make or break a bar in my opinion one bartender in particular who was running things alone seemed knowledgeable and professional on a couple visits. They have made great alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks as well as offered rewarding suggestions when asked. One of the best lattes I've ever had, which I was a pleasantly surprised by since I wasn't really expecting coffee there at all there on my first visit just walking by.*Atmosphere*It seemed like quite a few people go there to work and I can see how it could be a productive environment in that it's generally pretty peaceful with reasonable distractions it's the kind of place people might bring their dog inside but it's a pretty mindful atmosphere and doesn't get too loud. It's a really versatile space because not only could you come alone, meet with friends, go on a date, read or do some work but they also have TVs for you to watch sports for example I recently watched the 2022 World Cup there.
