Best Of Winner
Bar Three Fifty-Five

355 19th St.
Oakland, CA 94612
510-451-3355
Oakland-Downtown

Another example of the emergent lounge-bar-hybrid breed. It's got the energy of a dive, but with an auspiciously non-sticky floor and a lovingly curated playlist. Its house-made tonic makes for a delicious gin and tonic.
