The Stein Lounge

Says their hours are 10AM-2AM..I got here at 11:50PM they said they were closed and that's the new hours. Outside on the street it smells so bad as If Trash was spilled all over the streets terrible.

I love this bar! It's so comfy and welcoming. The owners are amazing! It's family owned. A am in love with the pool table room! It's actually really big inside for a small bar.. I definitely will be back...

Even though they still don't have couches, this place is still the best to be at when you want to have a great time. This is a bar for anyone and anything, I am a local drunk here, even sometimes I don't drink I come in to catch a movie or a sports event and the folks here make it even more entertaining.. the bartenders here are awesome, Matt, Diego, Stefan, Adolfo, and even my 4th best friend Brandon, who lately I've seen some people call him out for having a bad day or just standing up to someone who may not have known his place when it came to banter and bar talk. In any case, if you want to have some drinks and decompress a little, come in to the place where everyone knows your name, except when they call you by some other dándome name to keep you on your toes...

I went here with some friends and we got a mandarine tango and it was amazing ! Definitely would come here again !!

This is a great neighborhood bar.Prices are good. Jukebox, TVs, pool table. The bartenders will leave you alone if it seems like that's what you want, and none of them are super in your face unless you're being disruptive in some kind of way. I have seen them act real quick on people being belligerent or shady or scary - which is another reason this bar is awesome - they do take care of their customers by keeping the shi**y people out. If you're looking for a place to have a couple drinks and chill quietly on your own, or, be able to chit chat with people from a bunch of different backgrounds and walks of life, this is the spot. The Stein is a classic neighborhood bar. There's not that many left around, make sure you stop in!

I would've given it 1 star but the beer has been good when we have gone. There's this one bartender that is absolutely rude, and racist I will add. My brother waited while I went to the bathroom never once acknowledged him, even when my brother said hello. He was real quick to serve the white customers. Other bartenders have been great, very open and nice but this guy is a douche. We left didn't even order a beer. Do better . Otherwise when he isn't there it's a great place to go and have a beer and chill.

Great neighborhood bar with character. Lots of older sports memorabilia - all the NFL helmets from yesteryear are displayed in the rear of the bar where the pool table is. Crowd does have many locals but the vibe varies from time to time which can make for a fun and sometimes interesting time. The bar tenders are funny guys which adds to the character of the place. Good pit stop along B St for some beers and cocktails.

Decent little dive in downtown Hayward, not far from BART. Friendly service. A pool table in the back. There aren't many decent bar options in Hayward but this is one of the better ones.

AVOID coming in on Monday nights!!! The bartender is a completely rude! He attended me and my friend at first and then completely forgot about us. He was more preoccupied on his phone than he was on customers. When it came time to us leaving I wanted to have one more drink and I had to raise my voice to get his attention, and WHAT DID HE DO?? HE STRAIGHT LOOKED UP AT US AND LOOKED BACK DOWN AT HIS PHONE!!!! The disrespect was UNREAL, I am a bartender myself and I would NEVER treat PAYING customers this way.. It's a complete loss for a business to have this kind of person working behind the bar, he lacked hospitality and respect for paying customers. It's unfortunate!

The Stein Lounge is my favorite dive bar in The Bay. Unpretentious, welcoming and with very competitive prices. I started going over 7 years ago when I moved to Hayward. In this bar I met really cool people that became great friends to me. The regulars are the nicest people you'll meet!I like to go with my best friend after a long day at work for the best dirty martini that I've had (courtesy of Brandon). And as single females we've always felt well taken care of by the staff if someone starts crossing lines.I love to see the diversity of Hayward reflected in the bartenders (Matt, Brandon, Stefan and Diego) that will serve you your drink right away and will keep you conversation if that is what you want, or let you enjoy your drink in silence if you prefer.Always a great time when I stop by!
