Chop Bar

Love to come with friends or by myself to enjoy a great breakfast served by friendly and attentive wait staff. I have enjoyed sitting at both inside and outside tables during the week and on weekends for brunch. I've hesitated a bit to post my review and pics because I selfishly would like to keep this place more of a secret rather than letting all those who use Google know but I decided it's better to share...enjoy!

Wings, chips + guac for apps. Ordered the chop burger with cheddar and meatloaf as the main dish. My kids had their chicken + fries and the Mac & cheese. All delicious! Had the bad bunny juice, and it was very refreshing. Will definitely be returning!

Enjoyed our dinner, the service was great, food was hot and fresh. What I did not like is they added a fee to my bill without asking. I realize it was a small fee but that does not make it right. Please ask next time.

I come to Oakland, California a few times a year, and I cannot help notice what a great job the local business is doing here. Chop Bar is near Jack London Square in what looks like an industrial part of Oakland, CA much in the way of the artistic Bohemian style of De Pijp, Amsterdam. I ordered the breakfast burrito with carnitas. $21.00 The unique blend of cooking styles in California, particularly Oakland where you get a fusion of Asian cuisine, Mexican cuisine, etc... gives that simple dish (burrito) a certain flare not found in many spots. Chop Bar has a full bar, with specialty cocktails, bloody Marys. Great ambiance with large glass window views from a reformed warehouse/loft environment decorated with local, relevant cultural themes makes this place a winner! Their signature award winning dish is the Oxtail Poutine over fries. Great spot to stop in and chat with friends over a couple of drinks and comfort food. Price range between $10.00 appetizers to $27.00 high end of entre spectrum. Lovely, friendly staff. No stuffiness, very attentive.

Drizzly Saturday afternoon with most restaurants with no outdoor seating, we were SO grateful for Chop Bar to let us with our handsomest doggo to enjoy some snacks and drinks. The "poutine" wasn't really a poutine but still really fresh and yummy along with Beet Salad. Everything came out in a timely manner and would come back to try other goodies

Their patio seating is located along a busy street and makes me nervous to think about having a rambunctious toddler running loose. I am a big fan of the P.E.I. Mussels ($19), guac (make sure your kiddos watch out for the spice!), and fries ($8), but wish there were more vegetarian options. Make sure to order a fancy cocktail if you are so inclined.

Soooooo good! I was surprised when they had the kind of hot sauce I like (crystal) The corn carrot soup was better than I thought it was going to be! I had the shredded oxtail over Frenchfries with cheese. Delicious!

Very cozy ambience and interesting choice of the food . I loved burger - so simple concept , fresh ingredients and excellent taste! Desert card is also full of surprises! I definitely recommend for the dinner out for any occasion !
