| - Butterjoint is one of my fav spots for Happy Hour. Most of their craft drafts are 4 bucks, and I love their rotating selection (Pumking in the fall, Mad Elf in the winter, and local breweries are also featured).
It is busy here during HH, so go sooner than later, esp on a Friday. I've been there on a Monday with no issues. On a Fridays, it's a different story. If you don't get there before 5, you'll be standing.
The decor gives off a speak-easy vibe, and the bartenders and wait staff match, with hipster staches and clothes. Parking can be a pain, but is free on the street after 6. If you work in Oakland and plan to head to Butterjoint, I advise leaving your car where it's at and walk.
The full Legume menu is available at Butterjoint. I've never ordered food here, as I prefer to concentrate on beer. My friends and coworkers have raved about the food, though, esp the burger. I plan to try it next time I'm there, which I'm sure won't be too long!
