We stopped here for lunch last Friday after my friend ran a quick work errand in Oakdale.It's a historic bar from the fifties, so it was dark and dated. At first, we did not feel welcome, maybe because we're not regulars. No one was rude, just dismissive.My friend and I had patty melts with fries and a cup of bean soup. I don't think I've ever complained about patty melts. It was perfect. The fries were fresh and crispy too. The bean soup was okay, about a 7/10.Our server perked up and was so friendly by the end of our lunch. We loved hearing stories about the place and some of the history. It was heartwarming, and we love seeing family businesses succeed and the next generation take over. When our server asked if we liked clam chowder, we said yes, so she quickly returned to let us try a sample. This was the best clam chowder we've had, even better than Sam's Chowder House in HMB! A 20/10. It was so creamy, with big chunks of tender clam. We ended up ordering more to go. My husband was also impressed when he tried some for dinner. I finished it two days later, and it was still amazing!

ALWAYS friendly. I don't see how Bo (bartender etc.) puts up with all theinebriated (by the end of a night)customers. He and Emily are so patientand are ALWAYS there to treat each patron like a continuous friend. Oh and BTW; the food from the kitchen is AWESOME

Surprisingly the H-B probably has the best clam chowder in Northern California! If you know you know.

We just had dinner here for the first time. (Had their catering and lunch several times. Been here to drink MANY times.) I was extremely pleased with my ribeye dinner. It was soft as butter, super tasty and cooked to perfection. I can't explain just how perfect the flavor of the steak was. It was everything you want from a quality dinner. My husband was shocked by the price. The meal we had should've cost us $80 but instead was just about $55 with tip. Soup, salad, two sides and the most amazing steak you will eat for just $20. Side note the homemade soup and mashed potatoes were just as good. This is a place we need to visit for dinner more often.

Most historic place in all of Oakdale. More famous than Orange Blossom Road. Slow down!

I love this place; the bar is best bang for your buck. Brandy is the best bartender, so leave her a kind tip. If you are new in town, sit on the left on the cool corner and mingle with the locals.Not fond of the food, but Tori is an awesome waitress. Needs a better cook.

Such places as this are getting harder to find. Authentic, value, cold beer, good food, juke box and nasty restrooms. And cash only. That's good since covid lives on credit cards. If you are poor, save up. Thirsty? Come on in.

As others have mentioned you don't really get a welcome here from the guy bartender (maybe owner?) as first timers, we got a good looking over. I got 2 beers in bottles and I then asked for 2 glasses. Apparently this amused the aforementioned barkeep. My wife and I wanted a change of scenery so we drove to H-B from Manteca. Sure, it's old and quaint and maybe the food is good. I had a burger that was very tasty but the praise the clam chowder I saw on some reviews is surprising. It was watery and not many clams in there. Just tasted like cream. The young lady waitress took over for our food order and more drinks and she was pleasant. Since then we have mentioned to our friends about our visit and they all seemed to say they don't like newbies at H-B !First visit and probably won't go back.
