The World Famous Turf Club

The World Famous Turf Club is a cheerfully eclectic neighborhood bar and outdoor patio destination in downtown Hayward that has built a devoted local following over years of delivering live music, karaoke, cold drinks, and good times in equal measure. The venue's signature feature is its large outdoor patio, which has been transformed into a tiki bar oasis with a lower patio area that serves as the live music stage from April through October on Friday and Saturday nights and Sunday afternoons. The programming during the outdoor season spans blues, jazz, soul, pop, and dance, drawing a neighborhood crowd that comes for the music and stays for the atmosphere. Three nights a week the venue runs karaoke, which has its own dedicated following and is hosted by performers with genuine vocal ability who can carry a room. The space is also available for private events, parties, meetings, and group gatherings, with a large seating area and a paved deck that can accommodate a wide range of event formats. The Turf Club is the kind of neighborhood bar that functions as a genuine community hub, where regulars and newcomers alike find something to enjoy regardless of what night they show up.
