Very nice small place to grab a drink and play some board games if youre a tobacco enthusiast or dont mind its use. They allow smoking in the front and back outdoor areas. This pub has a cozy and casual atmosphere that attracts a mix of locals and newcomers. I most appreciated that they are dog friendly. Bringing our dog with us made the night. They have a limited but high quality beer selection. They are cash only, but there is a bank across the street in case you forget. Will definitely be visiting again.

This pub really feels like youre hanging out in someones living room. The decor is just like someones house and the stuff they sell is amazing: the hand carved pipes and hand carved walking sticks are so cool even though I dont smoke I still appreciate antique items. The menu is both Western and Eastern, you can get sake, beer and wine. The outdoor patio is pleasant which is nice on a warm night because inside can get a little loud. Overall I highly recommend this place.

Very nice staff. Place looks like its in a house, it probably was a house at one point. Its a smoking joint (outside only) where you can buy tobacco, pipes, papers, etc. I go because there just isnt anything like this around anymore and I want to give them business. Great beer selection by the way, I mean really great. They do a lot with the ten or so taps they have.

Love this place! Comfy chairs, fireplace, drinks, BYOD(og), BYOF(ood), and board games galore! It feels more like someones living room than it does a pub. No bar stools or classic bar seating. Just a chill place to get some work done, play games with friends, or read the newspaper with Fido by your side.

A great local Berkeley hangout! Nice space to chat with friends over a beer, whether inside or on the smoking patio. Not a huge beer selection in tap, but the beers they did have were really good! Decent beer selection in bottles.

Fantastic ambience, a pub and tobacconist in a converted craftsman house. Great beer and cider selection very much in the English style. Games and books available. Sometimes local musicians strike up an impromptu performance.

Set in a converted house, it has the vibe of a chill, non-pretentious, non-corporate, coffee house but with alcohol and tobacco. Nice combination of indoor and outdoor space.

You just dont find great little places like this anymore. And you cant beat some of the conversations you over hear. Did you know Roy Orbison is deaf AND blind!

A most unassuming pub, Ive found this place to be perfect for quiet contemplation. Or a pint and a burrito. Or whispering hushed conspiracies.

This is a wonderful pub, and where else can you sit outside and enjoy everyone and a laidback atmosphere too?

Probably the best coffee shop in the entire Bay Area. Best place to hang out and do nothing Ive ever been to.
