Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Oakland

We were super close to other tables. Which made it annoying to here the other people’s conversations

I got to sit in the back room with the fireplace. I got to see first hand how hard the waitresses and table runners work. No matter what I have ordered I have always been satisfied with my meal. I would always recommend their famous meatballs (which are huge) and their fried zucchini. I also tried there crème brulee cheesecake for the first time and it was delicious. Can't wait to go back there again!

This truly is a hidden gem. We forget about it but go every few months and are always happy we did.

If you are looking for a true hug this is your spot. What a surprise as you walk into the gorgeous bar and then to the back of the restaurant where you are transported to a lodge, cabin, a time travel where pubs began? The immense drink menu had us gobsmacked at the banana old fashioned and festive cocktails, but vinos on tap? Pierogis were legit homemade and the bison meatloaf was a chef kiss and the hug you need on a cold night. Dessert was a true treat and the French press was smooth and delicious.

Hostess was professional. Waitress, Lisa, was prompt in serving each phase of foods. She was authentically happy to serve us. Wooden Nickel Restaurant is clean, and the atmosphere was inviting. The Fireplace greatly enhanced the Ambience. Parking was easy to access.
