10 Tried-and-True East Bay Dive Bars for a Boozy Night Out

"If you’re looking for a more mature semblance of the college bar experience, the Graduate is the place to go. It’s not quite next door to UC Berkeley, but the distance gives the bar some space from an all-student crowd, mixing in neighbors with soon-to-be grads. There’s a solid bar menu made of classic cocktails and free popcorn for customers." - Dianne de Guzman
