    I haven't been to the District-Oakland since pre-pandemic and visited for an after work gathering . The place is still casual, cozy (cushioned seating) welcoming with a variety of drink and shareable food options with music from a DJ. Happy Hour menu simple and straightforward like french fries, brussel sprouts and wings but the kitchen does them well: French fries crispy yet creamy on the inside, brussel sprout have depth of flavor with sauces made from scratch! Their dinner menu (meatballs, sandwich sliders) seem like bar food but equally delicious. Service basic and limited: order at the bar and food delivered to your table. District Oakland is an energetic spot to nosh on small bite (for sharing) while imbibing on a cocktail, beer, or glass of wine. Happy Hour: 4-7 M-F, 5-7pm Sat. with full menu available. Plenty of metered street parking in Old Oakland

    We have been coming here for ever since Doc John ended up behind the bar. So about 4 years. Happy hour is good and the food is over all tasty. The wife loves the oysters at happy hour. So she and the crew always come through and get like 4 dozen. I personally like the lamb meatballs and pizzas. But they have things on the menu for everyone. Drinks selection is good. Plus they can make almost anything you can think of. If you go you need to have John make you a New York Sour - damn good.

    I love this lounge bar. The service is attentive and friendly. It's a welcoming atmosphere where you can chill, nosh and drink. On the weekend they have great DJs where you can dance or just bop your head to the music. Lots of hip hop which I love. This is a must-stop when I'm in Oakland. District is conveniently located on the corner of Washington one block from the Oakland City Marriot.
