Halal Guys brings late-night American halal and Mediterranean eats to Uptown Oakland, serving up flavorful platters and pitas until 2 a.m. on weekends.
"The famous chicken-and-rice chain opens today in Uptown Oakland, in the former location of Locol (and Plum before it) at 2214 Broadway, bringing spicy AF red sauce to all the land. The grand opening events include some giveaways: Starting at 11 a.m. the first 50 customers get a free platter of gyro, falafel, chicken, and the sauces. The main draw, however, is the chain’s late night hours: it’s open til midnight Sunday through Thursday, and til 2 a.m. on Friday and Saturday." - Ellen Fort
"New York-founded Middle Eastern franchise Halal Guys has found fertile ground in the Bay Area, first arriving in San Francisco and Berkeley. It’s now bound for Uptown Oakland at 2214 Broadway, with plans to open this summer there in the former home of Plum Bar and the original location of Daniel Patterson and Roy Choi’s fast food business Locol. The Uptown Local closed in Summer 2017 with the team moving its focus to West Oakland and a new location there. Only time will tell if Halal Guys can succeed where Locol appeared to struggle." - Caleb Pershan
