Haven't been here in 25 years. Luckily I was able to park in a spot that was safe.Thanks again Tim

One of my favorite dive bars and you'll never go wrong with Victoria as your bartender. Always smiling and happy - she definitely brings the place a great feeling. Actually all the bartenders are dope but Vic is definitely my favorite. Tell her Betty sent you!

Came in here for a post-work drink and was pleasantly surprised. Very friendly bartender and patrons. It's a 35+ crowd which was perfect. Good music playing (soul and R &B). I will definitely be back.

Can't go wrong with this bar, strong drinks, friendly bartenders, friendly crowd and a pool table. Added bonus, I met my husband here. Five years and two kids later we owe it all to 2101.

Pleasant bar - one pool table, 5 TVs on the perimeter... and a keg in the corner. A place to grab a burger across the street and a parking lot behind the bar too. Friendly bar tender. A small cozy bar. A good place to mingle and make friends around the pool table. Stella $4 and across the street you can grab a burger which is convenient. An authentic Oakand bar.

Their bartender gave herself a $3 tip...when I brought it to the owners attn he blamed me as if I did something wrong saying that maybe I forgot I added the tip & implied I could've being drunk. He swore up & down that his bartender wouldn't do such a thing when in fact she did and this ain't even my sloppy ass handwriting. At the end of our heated conversation I advised he run his cameras so he can see that I never touched the receipt bc his bartender took the receipt away so damn fast & didn't allow me to. I will never return!

Great drinks, great prices, and a good atmosphere. The digital jukebox is TERRIBLE though. If you want to play the latest jams you're shit outta luck. However, the drinks are poured stiff. Very stiff. Have a few margaritas and your head will be playing all kinds of music in your head so at that point a jukebox with some decent tunes isn't needed, but would be a huge extra added bonus.

Best Dive bar in the East Bay. After a much needed ladies night dinner, we checked yelp for a bar close by to keep the party going. Yelp directed us to 2101 Club. This is why I love Yelp. We walked into a neighborhood party, got a really warm welcome, and within minutes had made friends with all patrons and bartenders. Everyone is there to have a good time, and oh a good time was had. Such a great crowd, great vibe, awesome bartenders and strong drinks. A great place to lift your spirits and make some friends.

Andy, Tony, Danny, Charles and 2101 staff,Britnea and I want to thank you guys from the bottom of our hearts for being amazing friends to us.  There are no words to truly show our gratitude and appreciation for all you did for us on our wedding day. Your time and efforts are much appreciated.  We are grateful for your attention to detail and willingness to make the day at the bar go smoothly.  We both knew from the beginning of it all that we would not have to worry about a single thing when it came to "The Wedding Bar." Your service was superb (as always), your bar set up was very professionally presented.  Everyone commented on how delicious the drinks were, fun the evening was, that in part was because of your assistance.  We dont have much family in Oakland/Local, and can truly say we both consider you guys family.  We are forever indebted for your generosity and the love you guys have and continue have for us.With love 2101, Britnea and Karla

Club 2101 was pretty packed on a friday afternoon. pretty small bar with pool table, juke box, flatscreens. it was a multiracial crowds of retirees types. aged cougars in attendance alsoanchor steam (4) , with bud and sierra nevada-bartender poured out 2 glasses to give me a crisp brew-NICE!-worth repeating. evening crowd younger when i was here years ago.
