The Alley has been in operation since 1933, making it the oldest piano bar in Oakland. Rod Dibble tickles the ivories here and patrons can even sing karaoke to their favorite jazz tunes. A great time is sure to be had for anyone who loves Jazz.

Parks & Nature
Lake Merritt is an iconic park in Oakland. It stretches about 3-4 miles around the lake and features places such as Children's Fairyland (where Walt Disney took inspiration to create Disneyland), bird estuaries, parks, the Lake Merritt Pergola where people tend to dance, play music or practice martial arts, the Lake Chalet and more! It's one of my favorite places in Oakland.
