"Their new, 5,000-square-foot, bi-level club at 1544 Broadway aims to keep locals in Oakland by offering a nightclub experience on par with large San Francisco venues: designed to be inclusive rather than solely LGBTQ-focused, Fluid510 will feature chef Alessandro Campitelli’s elevated bar food—zhuzhed grilled cheese, fries, pizza, standout dishes like grilled octopus, and vegetarian options including an upcoming vegetarian moussaka and a pea hummus dip—plus weekend brunch with new food items, mimosas, and a DJ; a cocktail program with creative twists such as a Mandarin 75 (an orange-vodka take on the French 75) and a Coco Fizz (a sloe gin fizz with coconut), wine and Champagne flights, bottle service, and nonalcoholic drinks; flexible multi-use space for community gatherings or nonprofit galas; community-sourced programming ideas like comedy nights; and a debut on May 20." - Dianne de Guzman
