Plank

Came on Sunday afternoon to happy hour and had a good time. Happy hour: Bowling is $5 per game and beers are $7, well drinks are $5 and there's many other drinks and food but didn't get more. The arcade was fun but not cheap, probably comparable to chain arcades but with worse prizes. The outdoor area is really nice and there's many TVs. They are building a beer garden or something inside which will be cool. They do not validate parking, so we paid $14 for 2-3 hours in the garage, which wasn't bad. There's a farmers market right outside on Sunday too. We would come back to bowl!

Appreciate the atmosphere!! Love the whole setting on how they have the outside & inside area for hanging out & 🍸 drinking 🍻 with friends. Service was mid, more for the wait time of getting attention initially. But the service was friendly and food came out fast. Service for drinks 🍹 takes a short minute. But drinks are good! Enjoyed the food, definitely better than places like dav N bustas Love how they have bowling🎳 lanes, pool tables🎱, small area for arcade 🕹️games, hockey 🏒 air table and love music. They got bachi ball and an outdoor bar. Great place for dates, birthdays, & small or large groups! Highly recommend!!! Surrounding area is beautiful, right by the water 🌊 great location!!!, 🚗 parking 🅿️ is real close and not that expensive 🫰

Our waitress was so awesome! She was fast and friendly! Our food came out so quickly, we were totally impressed. The food was SO good! Those tater tots were to die for!!! It happened to be Planks 10 year anniversary so there was a live band and they were so amazing! Enjoyed our visit here. The beer was not really cold enough, but everything else was so good that we couldn't complain.

I loved the atmosphere at Planks. I have not been there in a while and was amazed at the food and drinks. I have the fried greens tomatoes with crab and black beans. When I say there was not a crumb left on the plate. I also had the frozen strawberry margarita. Man, usually frozen drinks are not strong but these are. Would I go back yes... The only problem is the service or server did check on us as they should. But overall a great place. Oh and I had the bruschetta and dip.. Loved it..

Everything was great till last call. Food was Good, atmosphere was also good service not too bad. They closed 12pm. Wasn't too happy with last call, we order food and literally said, and I Quote "You have 10min to finish up your food and leave". We had just got our food. Next time just say No. We're okay with that. Don't charge us then want us out 10min after we had just good our food. Bowling and Music was fun.

Definitely a watering hole for school teachers service people the maintenance man and other bartenders not to be rude but it’s definitely not the district (suit&tie watering hole) This is the place where we go to watch Sunday night football and Monday night basketball games I definitely recommend the barbecue platter with the brisket the beef ribs and a side salad a couple of chicken wings grab a Lane and bowl there’s a private room in the back as well if you are hosting a party it doesn’t have to be out in the open there’s an arcade area for children even though it’s not really child friendly outdoor seating with an open bar and multiple televisions fire pits and even a small playground just in case you can’t get rid of your Rugrats. Definitely a safe area your child is not coming up missing here no you cannot hit your vape inside that’s what outside is for and if you’re gonna order margaritas order more than one

This place is amazing! I went bowling here and lost against my friends, but I had a blast. This place also has an arcade! I played the Super Mario driving game and won against my friend! (Arcade is separate from bowling so you would need to put money in the machine, they do not give change!)

I stopped in because I had an appointment across the street and I had a little over an hour to spare. I sat at the end of the bar, and within minutes the bartender approached and I ordered a drink (titos an cran) and sliders, cost me $27 and some change. Within five minutes I got my drink, simple, well made, no straw. 45 minutes later, still waiting on my sliders. It is now time for me to leave or I will be late for my appointments. I have asked two servers about my food and have yet to get a response.... finally received my food and it was complete trash. The sliders were just thrown in the box, tasted like straight vinegar and the buns were mush. So greatly disappointed. I would not recommend this place for food and drinks.

Finally I find a bbq that doesn't burn the meat. Ordered a smoke shack sampler plate. Big, messy, juicy, flavorful, finger locking good beef and babyback ribs and jalapeño sausages. The xsausauge too was delicious. So much so I'm going back there tonight. Hooray Will definitely be going back.

Plank is such a cute place! I don't go to the East bay often but we had a team offsite there few months ago during the heat wave and this was such a cute place! The servers were super nice and made sure we took advantage of the happy hour menu and make sure we put in our orders before the cut off time. The food itself was surprisingly good, and although it was all small bites, we just kept ordering off the HH menu and got so full! We were going to bowl after eating but the lanes were all full so we called it a night at the end, but the vibes were there! It was hot and warm that night so it was very chill and relaxing to sit there, yap and just eat and drink the evening away.

Came here for "Happy Hour" on a Monday -- all I can say is, SAVE YOUR MONEY. You're better off just getting drinks and then eating elsewhere or ordering straight from the main menu. The HH food was basic and definitely not $9 worth. The tacos reminded me of the $1 tacos from Taco Bell, the nachos had no meat in them and the sliders were $9 for 2... definitely not a "happy hour" -- also service was horrible. One of the workers who was wearing a beanie just seemed like she didn't want to be there and kept saying our server would be right with us but then kept coming back like she would take our order but then didn't... it seemed like a few other tables were also dealing with service issues too. We came on a Monday and it was not busy so not sure why it's so hard to ensure people's food get to them in a timely manner. Also Plank definitely used to validate parking earlier this year and now they don't, so just save your money and go elsewhere I give it 2 stars for location and the beautiful sunset

I was out w/my granddaughter and decided to goto Plank. We ended a fun filled day there. Crispy pork belly 4outta5 -full of flavor. The bed of slaw was unappealing (I don't like slaw tho) Pepperoni Pizza 4outta5 -Gbaby loved it! I could've used a little more meat Bruschetta 5outta5 -Absolutely delicious! Garlic Fries 3outta5 -Not enough garlic. They're garlic fries, you can never have too much garlic. Prime rib Sliders 1outta5 -I only took one bite. The slider buns were soft and sweet. The prime rib lacked flavor & was chewy. A jus on the side would go a long way. Arcade 4outta5 -Relatively nice selection of games... Overall we had a great time!

(Came for restaurant not bowling) So I heard this place wasn't good but I was hungry and it was close so came here to get food to go. I will say service wasn't great but wasn't bad either. Other than that, we SLAMMED our food. It was soooo good. Flavorful, big portion, fun options. Extremely satisfied and love that its a quick and easy place to grab a bite. Ordered: Plank Burger, Chicken Nachos, Tri Tip Dip Stack, Sweet Potato Fries, Garlic Fries. Forsuree will be back. Food was delish, I'm literally still full!

Been there a few times over the years. Located in the Jack London square area. Always loved the atmosphere. BUT yesterday was an exception. First, the inside with zero air condition was untenable. Outside at the bar was cooler, but we were not exactly the correct color, so we were ignored. Had to go to the bar to order for ourselves. Insult to injury, my credit card was hacked. Someone stole my card info in seconds. It was later that night it was used in Oakland and San Leandro in person? IDK how that works as I have the card in my hand but that's what the credit card company said. Beware!!!

Food was good! Bartenders are great but they accidentally forgot to get our food. They remade it since the one they had made got cold. Drinks are good! Got the old fashioned and the Plank Sunrise. Both were nice! This is a fun place to go for a celebration with friends.

Manager white lady with dark brown wavy hair, huge bitch. Arcade machine didnt give me my change, $50 or a receipt. She was so rude and not helpful. Service was also bad. The server was in a bad mood.

Great place! Mostly kind staff. Cool dj on the weekends! And they have good deals. Cool place to watch the game or bowl with family/friends.

Just went for bowling and a drink. Didn't get to bowl and the food was lackluster and the drinks were ok. It def gets crowded here though and where there crowd there mess.

Great spot for a get together. Right next to the water, big open space outside for larger gatherings. I did a small team lunch here (5 people) during the middle of the day so there was no wait time or anything. We were busy chatting to even explore the arcade/bowling alley, but it seems like coworkers were interested in going back. I got there an hour early and took a call from a bench outside, where I watched as a car drove slowly through the outdoor parking lot across from the Plank entrance. The passenger got out and peered into a bunch of cars before he got back into his car and left. DO NOT LEAVE ANYTHING IN YOUR CAR. I parked in the parking garage, but I don't know if that's necessary safer. The food was pretty good, and not too expensive. Calamari- good breading, excellent dip. Prime rib sliders- 3 sliders per order, we ordered 2 plates. Good, not too salty, soft bread. Meat was tender. Bruschetta- Didn't expect to want a second order, but it was really solid. Bread was nicely toasted, the baked goat cheese was so nice, and the tomatoes added some nice acidity. Chicken wings- ordered the Large with lemon pepper and garlic parmesan. Juicy chicken, really nice crunchy breading. I think the carrots that came with it was pickled, and that was a surprise. Brussels sprouts- nice and crispy on the outside, tender on the inside. Well balanced. I think it was the only real vegetable we ordered, everything else was fried. Even though they had salads, it didn't seem like a "sharing" dish. Would like more fresh veggie options so we don't overdo it on fried/oily dishes. Overall pleased with the food. Service was a little slow considering it wasn't busy.

This place has a ton of potential based on the the location and activities available. Unfortunately you'll find out why it has such low ratings. The low ratings come from the customer service (or lack there of). The servers are NOT attentive at all. When you walk in, there is nobody to greet you. This place is huge. It has bowling, a bar inside and a bar outside. There are fire pits and large format games outside. There is a decent arcade inside. The place has absolutely no flow or direction. You dont know what to do once you're inside. There's no host, or anyone greeting you upon entry. This is a huge fail by the managers and marketing team. Now where they shine is in fact the food. I was actually impressed with the quality. Firstly, we had the original cheese pizza ($18), and it tasted like a stone oven. Crust was thin and crispy. Sauce was not too sweet or bitter. The amount of cheese was perfect as well. We ate 6 of the 8 slices. It came in an oval shape similar to a flatbread. It's small, so you wont be sharing with more than 2 people. Next we had the plank fries ($16) and this thing was massive. This is something you'd share with the table. Fondue cheese, applewood bacon, green onions were the toppings. This was super tasty. We shared a bowl of ultimate Mac and Cheese ($16), it had cheddar jack, mozzarella, and asiago. This could have been better with a layer of cheese on top and torched / broiled to a nice crust. Even fast food places offer this, so it's very bad for a sit down brick & mortar to miss the mark here. We finished with coke, sprite and I had an old fashioned. The drink was good, but it didn't have the big single ice cube. I wasn't given an itemized receipt either, so hopefully I was charged correctly. Finally, on today they closed at 430p for a private party. This was very unfortunate because lots of students are out for winter break. They stopped taking food orders at 4pm, and made announcements about every 10 minutes leading up to 4:30pm. This is a cool place to bring friends from out of tow to just hang out and enjoy the weather, ambience, and relax. parking: 2/5 - paid garage parking $12 all day or $3/hour time to be acknowledged: 0/5 time to be seated: 2/5 return value: 5/5 customer service: 2/5 value: 3/5

Midday outing, the service was welcoming and our orders came quickly. The atmosphere is fun. It's perfect for hanging out with family and friends or date night. Plank offers a variety of things to do like bowling, arcade games, etc. And there's secured parking in Jack London Square so you don't have to worry about your car getting bipped.Overall it's a cool place, I'd return.

My friends and I like Plank for the bowling, the sports (TV's), and the atmosphere. The atmosphere is Planks best feature (bowling, beer and TV) great combination. With that being said I'd recommend that you eat before or after you visit plank. The food is not worth the trouble. It's like paying to eat science projects. A dish as simple as nachos were room temp or colder with old stale ingredients and were a turn-off/ struggle to eat. Plank has so much potential to be better but the happy hour and the general menu are full of cheap ingredients (cauliflower bites) and are overpriced. I definitely have fun bowling but I'd want the food quality to match. The service is ok but not good. I leave a tip but I don't leave feeling taken care of. The waits to make an order or for check-ins and follow-ups has been 25 to 35 mins. I typically stop tracking time after 25 mins. To me the culture isn't designed to provide care into catering visitors. What's I found frustrating was I asked for extra forks from a different server and that server tracked down my initial server only to watch that server walk 15 feet for forks (patio area) and that took 30 or more mins (food cold). Visiting Plank should be about having an all around good time but I'd compare my experiences to navigating through a country I'm visiting for the first time. Disappointing

I've lived in Jack London Square for two years and had never been to Plank until today. It was great! My daughter and I took her 7-year-old twins here to play arcade games. Someone was constantly wiping down the equipment to prevent the spread of germs, which I appreciated. After an hour or two, we went outside to grab a bite to eat -- chicken wings and pizza. It took a while to be served, but our waitress greeted us with "thank you for your patience." And when the kitchen got our order wrong, she quickly made it right. The kids played on the playground while my daughter and I finished our meal. The assistant general manager, Natalie, was really nice. I told her I would be back soon with my husband to watch sports or go bowling.

Will never come here again! Absolutely a waste of time and money. The place is extremely overwhelming and unorganized.

This place is not traditionally known for its service, but things seemed to be turning around! My last two servers, Amani and Molly, have been FABULOUS! Great demeanors, super helpful and very attentive. Really happy to be able to write this review, thank you ladies!

A fun vibe to get together with your friends there. There are lots of open seatings outside. But we did get there before 12 so it wasn't packed just yet. We got a couple of appetizers to share between the 3 of us and it was plenty. We ordered medium sized wings (half lemon pepper and half bbq), plank fries, and the Brussels sprouts. The wings were okay, nothing to rave about. Love the Brussel sprouts! It was crispy and cooked just right with some added bacon. And the plank fries were super yummy! I think it would be a bit too much if you added meat on top. Overall, great place to hang out! They unfortunately do not validate your parking there.

Great service being very packed to capacity. Food was cooked throughly, but the Calamari, which was just breaded and lightly cooked, was very gummy. Otherwise, service was fast when they eventually got your order. However, the customers were super entitled, and arguments happened left and right. Kids playground on the premises. Dogs were everywhere eating off the ground. But it's still a nice place ... valet parking and street parking at hotels. Limited parking. Get here early. Tons of shows, comedies nearby. No complaints. It's Oakland, the city of bippers. Spend $112. Fair.

Came here for lunch with some coworkers on a Thursday afternoon. The server was so patient with us as we couldn't make up our minds. She also helped us come to a decision out of all the things we thought sounded great. The place was very lively and has plenty of tables. Service was very relaxed so be ready to be here for a while. If you're looking for a quick lunch this might not be the best place but for us who had some time to linger- it was perfect. Our only set back was that we didn't time the dessert ordering well and ended up waiting about 35 minutes for our dessert to come out. We took it to go instead and it was great!

Date: 7/21/2023 Time: 6:00 PM 72° Sunny I met up with some of my girlfriends for an early dinner. They decided to dine here before attending a concert series in the Jack London Square area. I have never dined here. The items as described on the menu look good. Okay, Plank is put to the test as to how tasty is their Arnie Palmer. The Arnie Palmer was not what I expected. I tasted better elsewhere (Scott's, Quinn's Lighthouse, Coqueta in SF, Angelina's Louisiana Kitchen in Berkeley, Westside Club/Shibe Park Tavern at the Coliseum). The balance of tea and lemonade was not there. I wasn't feeling it. I could barely taste the tartness of the lemonade. One of the ladies in the group switched from the Arnie Palmer to a Long Island iced tea. She said it tasted more like iced tea, and the presentation of the Arnie Palmer looked more like iced tea. The secret of a perfect Arnie Palmer is two layer - lemonade on the bottom of the glass, topped with iced tea. The Arnie Palmer barely passed my test. The Margherita pizza was okay. I never had it with balsamic vinegar. It was edible, and again, I had better elsewhere, as in Tony's Pizza Napoletana, North Beach, SF, and Forge Pizza around the corner. Two of my friends had the Crispy Chicken Salad. They said it was good. For the price, the salad was a generous portion. Yet another friend had the Cuban and sweet potato fries. The sweet potato fries were delicious and on point. Even though those two items were good, it was not enough to up the rating to four stars. Customer service was very good and our waiter was accommodating and friendly (4 star). We received the bill, which did not include the tip. Based on my calculation, we decided to give him about a 20% tip. Return visit? Might, then might not.

Came here for a company event. The Plank does not validate parking or so we were told by an employee, so let's just get that out of the way. We had the upstairs bar above the gaming area reserved, it had a nice patio with a view of the waterfront. Food that was served was sub par for what I was expecting. I don't know if the ribs and mashed potatoes are the same ones being served at their restaurant down stairs but it left me still hungry because it was lacking wow factor. It was good for free food but if I had to pay I would've orders something else. Mashed potatoes weren't that good, seemed as if it was made from a packet cause it was very light and a bit runny like a purée. They had a small arcade but their prizes were meh. I will say I enjoyed. Setting the record in all the basketball games. You don't get a free game if you beat the high score like at other places, it o ly fave a free game if you break 100 points.

We went here in the evening around 6pm. The food was delicious! They have delicious cocktails as well. Reasonable prices. Ambiance was good too - they have an inside and an outside but most people were outside and that's where we sat too. Service was a little slow in the beginning and we were a little confused when we first got there but then we got David as a server who was excellent. He was very nice and gave us excellent service. I would recommend this place!

We were staying next door at the hotel and tend to get snacky after dinner. The outside patio area is where it's at, quieter and could actually hear people talk. It's pub food so don't expect fancy things. The plank fries was great - very filling and easy to share. The servers recognized us (think we went here 3 times in a row!) and were super friendly and funny. We did do some bowling inside and it was bumpin'! There's also an arcade area for the kiddos and young at heart.

Great place for family fun and bowling. The location is perfect. Waiters are good especially for parties, but the host / manager staff and terrible. They need customer service/hospitality training. Not attentive to details. Just make sure to follow up on your planning details upon arrival.

Worst service ever they tell you sit anywhere but expect to never get helped... not my 1st time but now my last.

Got to come here tonight for a work function. We are all from out of town, so we like to pick places that can accommodate a large group and allow us to mingle. Plank met all our needs. The setting is great, right on the harbor. The setup is amazing, various places to hang out or play. The drink selection is great and the food was tasty. So glad w we're able to find this place and spend some time here.

I had a giftcard I wanted to use at Plank and since I'd found out via email that Plank had some Oakland Restaurant Week specials, I decided it'd be a good opportunity to order some food. There is no way to order takeout over the phone or online, however; the only way to order takeout is via DoorDash, which doesn't work if you're trying to use a gift card, so I had to come in person to order. I came in on a Friday evening, which is a busy time. When I entered Plank, I found it confusing and overwhelming to figure out where I could go to order the food. With the music playing, people talking, and sounds of the arcade games and bowling, I personally found it overstimulating. There were some signs pointing to different attractions within Plank, such as one that said "Eats," but it wasn't really helpful for figuring out where to order. At first I went outside to the beer garden area, where there is a lot of outdoor seating, but after waiting a while, I realized the bar was probably not the best place to order food, so went back inside and ordered from a bar inside. The worker I spoke to said I need to be 21+ to order even if I'm not ordering alcohol, but then they didn't even really look at my driver's license when I pulled it out. At first they tried to get one of their coworkers to take my order instead but the coworker was on their break. They also seemed confused when I said I'd won a giveaway and didn't have a physical giftcard, but was able to find someone else (presumably a manager) who searched and was able to find the envelope where my giftcard had been stored. They estimated 15-20 minutes for the food to be ready. I ordered the goat and truffle pizza, BBQ chicken pizza, and the mango and peach pocket pie. Goat and truffle pizza: I liked the truffles, they are juicy and savory. The arugula was alright. It didn't have enough goat cheese, couldn't really taste cheese at all. Overall I thought it was pretty good given I don't really like mushrooms. The pizza is thin. BBQ chicken pizza: I like the sweetness of the BBQ sauce. I am not sure why they put cilantro on it. I also felt like it was rather lacking in cheese. Mango and peach pocket pie: This is a temporary item from the Oakland Restaurant Week menu, and costs $10. I really could only taste the peach but not the mango as much. It seemed like they probably used preserved or canned fruit. It was also decent, and came with vanilla ice cream. Overall I thought the food itself was fine, but the experience of trying to navigate the physical location and to order the food was chaotic and overwhelming. I've been to Plank once before in the past for a work party, but that was quite different since it was a weekday afternoon so there weren't really other people there, which meant service was faster and I didn't really have to figure out my way around the venue.

Took a friend here for a birthday lunch. We went on a Sunday and sat at an outside patio with shading. I ordered from the brunch menu and had the pastrami with chimmichurri and potatoes. I also had two cocktails, including a lemonade that was delicious and moderately priced for a cocktail. The food I had was delicious and filling, and the drink was definitely boozey and only 13 bucks, which is a good price for cocktails these days. I didn't realize inside there was a whole bowling alley and arcade. Next time I'll have to check that out.

This was my first time here and it was fun! It's was a my cousins Beeday so we were hanging out and enjoying the food. The rolls were so good n fresh, fries had just the right amount of everything and calamari we didn't like so we sent it back and got a Cesar salad. Service was great everyone was so nice n friendly

Decent spot, good for large impromptu walk ins because you can find space... Food is okay drinks were fine but everything is overpriced. Game were fun, been a few times. Wouldn't go out just to go to plank.

We ended up here after our basketball games were done for the day. In tow half of our basketball team of 12 U. The food was really good and to our surprise there were games for kids to play and walls of tv screens that had various sporting events on. The service was quick and friendly. Everyone in our 10 group party enjoyed it and we plan to go to Plank next tournament weekend in Oakland.

This is in re: to staff attentiveness and response (and a heads up to parents). I brought my son to the arcade area and noticed an elderly, Asian man sitting in the arcade area... not playing games, but sitting on a chair in the corner and watching everyone. I noticed him readjusting his position to watch my son, and then followed us as we moved to the other side of the arcade. I directly looked at him and he quickly sat at the roller-coaster game, pretending to play (but never actually using credits to activate the game). I gave him a HARD LOOK so he knew I was watching him and went to grab a staff member. I wish I'd taken a photo of him because he was gone by the time I returned. The staff member with whom I spoke was extremely concerned and reassured me that they take issues like this very seriously. I appreciated that even though the staff is not responsible for our children, she was not about to let a suspicious person hang out there. She continued looking for the man and said she would keep an eye out for him. I really appreciate how supportive she was and I hope all staff can be like her. FYI- If you see solo adults in the arcade who are not actually playing games (maybe just faking it) and appear to be watching (or trying to talk to) kids, you can let staff know asap so they can assist in maintaining safety. I wish I'd gotten that staff's name. She has long, black hair and might be a bartender.

We had a great experience at plank. Thomas was very helpful for us to get set up at our lane. Great customer service and the people are very friendly.

Great venue for our company summer outing. The indoor/outdoor areas are excellent to allow people to spread out and enjoy a nice day. I would recommend a combination of bocce/ping pong/bowling for larger groups. Setting up the party was straightforward, and the staff were very friendly.

First time and kids and adults had fun bowling. We ordered nachos and fries and they were good. Our server was very nice and attentive. Place was clean. But it can get really warm inside.

This place is cool and all but it's pricey and often busy so getting your drink or food order does take time but it is good though. The arcade is real small. But this place is def more adult catered so it's fine. They got an underground parking a garage you gotta pay for and a nice outside bar area to chill in that's right on the docks. Nice place just pricey is all

Came in on a Friday night, it was p busy and loud and got put on a waitlist for a lane. This was totally cool though b/c we got to eat while we waited in the outside area. We split the mac and cheese (huge bowl) and the flatbread pizza, this is definitely the kind of place to order a couple things and share them. The mac and cheese was good but not complex, the pizza was a perfectly acceptable flatbread pizza. Also ordered a pilsner. E ordered a guinness, they told him they were out and instead gave him the worst beer I've ever tasted. Kind of like a chocolate soda... BUT to their credit when E went back to the bar, the bartender actually found him a guinness somehow and replaced the chocolate beer free of charge. Slay. Overall, food is perfectly good if you are very very hungry!! Almost as soon as we finished eating, our lane was ready. Bowling was a lot harder than I remembered but that's on me. It would have been nice to have someone bringing drinks to the lane though, as I had to carry two beers across the floor myself (the online ordering did not work) I did like the DJ though, who played some Charli XCX which was cool. So good choice on DJ. The arcade also has the classics: skeeball, that one basketball game, air hockey. don't need much else. I would say it was a little overpriced after all, so highly recommend coming here during a time that they have discounts and not peak time Friday night. Could save a lot just by doing Monday or something

Tomas so great. He was extremely informative and provided excellent customer service!

Came through here twice now in the recent months to catch a game and some drinks/food at the bar after taking an urban stroll with coworkers. Plenty of TVs for sports games, good bar food and drinks. Heaters and plenty of seating are a plus as are the bar crew. If they aren't super duper friendly at first just come back a second time and I'm sure it'll be different, was for us at least lol. The arcade inside has a good amount of games, mini basketball and the bowling lanes looked good too. Good spot for weekend brunch time meetups and you can't beat a stroll along the JLS scenery. Pros: not crowded, on par bar food and drinks, lots of TVs, expansive arcade and decent bowling lanes. Cons: nothing comes to mind.

Nice setup with plenty of seating options. Service was a bit slow as there was only one bartender at the time. The pours are generous. Good music and good vibes.

We had a great time with the family. Nice to take advantage of the $5 happy hour bowling and the teenagers also love the arcade. The food was also very tasty and the server was attentive. My son lost his wallet and Thomas went above and beyond to find the wallet and contact us that he had found it. He was also very kind to my son when he came in to retrieve the wallet. Thumbs up for the service here!

Great place for fun long waits for bowling lines on weekends and nights. So try to plan to eat or drink before your lane is available. Harder to get more than one lanes unless you go at opening. They have bocce and dining/drinks on the outdoor patio. They have a great arcade. And good bowling lanes. Food is decent bar food but nothing out of this world. If you drive park in the garage downstairs it's safest

Food is not THAT great. It's alright. I've dined in and ordered takeout. Garlic fries are way too greasy imo. And portion sizes for them (and regular fries) aren't a whole lot. Chips and guac were okay too. I just feel like you can get a better bang for ur buck elsewhere if you want to eat. Atmosphere is cool. Some servers seem a bit clueless imo

We had our son's 17th birthday celebration at Plank and it was a great experience. Our server was very attentive and food and beverages did not disappoint. It was a great value and we will use Plank for our next gathering for sure. No complaints and I highly recommend it to others.

Tomas is the goat ty I had a great time it's really fun and ty for being awesome at making it so fast to get our items from prize area

A fun spot to watch a game in an outdoor setting. There's a lot of beer options on tap. The night I was there, Mare Island Brewery had a pop-up and the bar was running a special. Inside, they have bowling and arcade games. It's 21+ after 9 pm. We didn't stay long, but it was a fun vibe at the outdoor bar. The food was nothing worth returning for but I'll be back for a pint. I ordered the fish and chips. It was bland and tasted like frozen stuff. Staff were fantastic and knowledgeable of the beer. Tastings are offered if you are not sure or want to give something a try before committing.

The family gathered here today for my birthday. 12 of us sitting outdoors to enjoy a sunny winter day. The place was not busy at all. The service was excruciatingly bad. Never once asked if we wanted anything refilled like water or coffee. Two kid meals came out early. Long wait and 2 folks delivered 9 meals. My meal was not delivered. Nor did either server care to notice. Our own server was no where in the picture. We talked to 3 different folks about the missing order. After about 20 minutes our server leaned over to me saying the kitchen had screwed up and it was in the works. We are talking French toast here not anything extreme. After waiting about 30 minutes, I was served. Of course folks were finishing especially the kids. So imagine how gross it was to have 4-5 pigeons land on the empty end of our table and gorge away. They were not shy and it took direct action to get them off the table. This was repeated numerous times but hell.............why weren't the plates cleared? Why wasn't the staff clearing the empty tables around us with pigeons noshing away tabletop? Oh yeah, they were in the corner taking pictures of food and having a ball. We coralled all the plates into one huge pile in the middle so we could defend the table. Did our server notice? Did our server bring the check? Nope. We had to stand up before he came running over and said he had to get the bill. The food was good. The service was terrible. The pigeons are a deal breaker. Go some where else to enjoy dining out.

I've been here twice. The first time was for happy hour to pregame before a night out a Jack London Square. It is a cool spot to hang out it isn't too crowded during happy hour but we came back to close out our night and it was really busy. The second time we came with the kids and the wait to bowl was way too long so we decided to just let them play in the arcade. At around 8pm we had to call it a night because the drunk crowd started rolling in. I would recommend definitely coming in earlier if you have kids in your party.
