McGee's Pub and Grill

VENUE NAME: McGee's Bar and Grill DESCRIPTION: Established in 1977, McGee's is one of Alameda's favorite local hangouts Instagram and one of the East Bay's most dependable neighborhood live music bars. Located on Alameda's historic Park Street, the venue offers draft beer, cocktails, pub grub, sports on TV, live local bands, and a patio, all under one roof that has been welcoming regulars for nearly five decades. The lively pub has a lot of space and tables, including a large covered patio out back that is perfect for warm days. Inside, there is a small dance floor where live music is featured. The vibe is relaxed and unpretentious, the kind of place where the bartender knows your name and the band is playing for people who actually want to listen. Live music happens once or twice a month, and the bands are genuinely fun. With free parking right next door and a crowd that skews friendly and mixed, McGee's is a solid spot to catch local and regional acts in a room that has zero pretension and all the charm of a true neighborhood bar.
