We sat outside and the Patio and it was a really pleasant experience. The food was solid, we got the following: Pastrami... Sandwich Roast Beef Sandwich Carne Asada Pizza Brusselsproouts Everyone liked their food though, we agreed the Pizza wasmissing a little salt. The beer menu was solid and so was the cocktail menu. it's not cheap though. Read more
First time visiting Plank in Jack London Square today and it was a positive experience. The weather was beautiful, during the... lunch hour (1 - 4) the crowd was moderate, the drinks were flowing and the food was rolling. Plank is located in Jack LondonSquare, Oakland, and is easily accessible via BART. Get off at the 12 Street Station, walk South, and before you know it, you?llrun directly into the large Jack London Square sign, the pier, and Plank. Plank is a really large business that has a bowlingalley, arcade area, bar, indoor and outdoor seating, and is perfect situated near the pier for great scenic views. We orderedcalamari and a side order of sweet potato fries. It was a great experience, is family friendly, affordable (based on what you?redoing), and a great place for happy hour. If you?ve never gone, it?s definitely worth visiting. Read more
Nice sports-bar and bowling place. We had lunch on the outside. Lots of people and nice atmospere. The service was quick and... friendly. The menu is tacos, pizza, hamburgers/handheld and plenty of drinks. Food was good. If we come back to Oakland, I wouldbe happy to come back to Plank. Read more
Great place for a night out. You can watch sports outside, bowling, pool and they have a modern arcade as well as a private... upstairs space. Located in the heart of Jack London square with street and paid parking nearby and beautiful views from thewaterfront. Read more
Location is great as it took over the old Barnes and nobles. And right by the water front. The set up and out for drinking and... hang out is amazing. Indoor bowling and acarde. Only thing down side is the service is slow or hard to get into contact with. Sobe careful about that Read more
Great arcade and bowling alley! However, ordering food when sitting outside is difficult, with not enough staff to take orders... and no way to order to the table online (the QR codes at the outside tables only link to view the menu unlike the tables in thebowling section which let you order online to your table) Read more
I went there for a company event. I have to say we all had a great time, played, ate and had drinks. The only part I did not... really explore is the arcade with the videogames. It's a pity because it seemed interesting. The waiter we got assigned tookgood care of us and service was pretty quick and accurate. I had some local beer and a pizza. Unfortunately the pizza is noteven close to be worth what they charge for. They have a very nice oven that I'm sure can deliver excellent pizza, they justhave to improve the process and realize we are in the 2020s. I really wish I could stay longer, but I had to leave relativelyearly to catch BART. Speaking of that, yeah it's not too far but also not too close, and parking in the area is a problem. Read more
Visited with some work colleagues. Played a couple of rounds of bowling -- super fun. Also, the food was pretty good. Our boss... ordered for the table. We had 3 different pizzas, chicken nachos, wings, fries, and calamari. Definitely hit the spot. Wouldlove to visit again soon. Read more
