Top 3 to eat and our top 3 to drink at.

As you all know, we the 68s love a good place to eat and drink around Oakland and we wanted to share that with all of you. From dive bars to date nights, or brunch to lake nights. We have it all cover! We will be sharing our top spots on our blog posts.


Here are our top three for the week of August 18th-23rd:


Restuarants: 1. Nido's Backyard - Oakland's very own margarita garden! Located at the edge of Jack London Square, you’ll follow a rainbow serape into an outdoor oasis known as the Bay Area’s first margarita garden. NIDO’s BackYard focuses on seasonal Mexican cuisine along with a curated list of agave spirits and cocktails. 

Our Motto is “Mi Backyard es Sú Backyard” welcoming all to enjoy Oakland’s beautiful weather (shine & the occasional rain!), margaritas, buenas vibras, and fun times in our BackYard.

 ¡Que comience la fiesta! https://www.nidooakland.com/

What you all have been waiting for... our top three Bars for the week(end)!


Pub/Bars: 1. Merchants Saloon - This dive bar is what legends are made of! Smack in the middle of the historic warehouse/produce district in Jack London, this right bare right here is a true first date type of place, because if they don't like this place you have to leave that person. They don't deserve you! You have to see it to believe it.

Pub/Bars: 3. Oeste - Owned by three women of color, Oeste opened in Old Oakland at the end of 2017. They purchased an abandoned storefront, originally built in 1921, that once housed business such as a uniform supply store, a bail bonds company and a barbershop to name a few. The two-year buildout completely transformed the space, combining the storefronts and adding a roof deck for dining, which gave the old brick building a new purpose in what is now home to Oeste bar & kitchen.


The Oeste team is a family, both literally and figuratively. We are made up of siblings, cousins, aunt, niece, mother and son, and long-standing friendships. Our core value is family, and we do our best to extend that value to all our Oeste guests. Oeste is a place where everyone can come as themselves. https://www.oesteoakland.com/
