Review Plank - Oakland

Paul Pettersson (Petersson Fersman)

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 would be happy to come back to Plank.

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 took good care of us and service was pretty quick and accurate. I had some local beer and a pizza. Unfortunately the pizza is not even close to be worth what they charge for. They have a very nice oven that I'm sure can deliver excellent pizza, they just have to improve the process and realize we are in the 2020s. I really wish I could stay longer, but I had to leave relatively early 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.

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 the waterfront.

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. So be careful about that

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 the bowling section which let you order online to your table)

Atmosphere Outdoor ✅ Location ✅ Customer Service was questionable, as for 20mins we kept hearing, I'll be right with you. Food was average to good. My wine glass wasn't clean and our server wasn't truly aware of his job. We did enjoy ourselves during Happy Hour and it was a spectacular day in Oakland.

Overall, we had a great time.🤗 But, if you go bowling Monday-Friday after 4pm the price is $75.00 per hour and this does not include the shoe rental. And, the drinks were waaaay overpriced. So try to make happy hours.😬 Like the price of gas...everything is ridiculously hiiiiiiiigh and customers are really paying the price. Literally. 🥴🥴

Good venue for team building and social events in general. They have a main lanes and also a small area group events that includes a poll table. They provide catering and beverages (there are bars in the venue). Also, there are several arcade games in the main area.
