SomaR Bar

Came here because it was a lot of ppl. and lit exciting. I’m so glad I stopped by… best bar on telegraph just so crowded. Lol. I’ll be back.

I feel like a dinosaur with all of the changes in Oakland sometimes. But Somar always feels like home. **update** 3 years later and my art is in a show there. Deep Sigh! I just love Oakland and SomaR.

So I did a few promotions here and to be honest. I'm actually very suprised they are still in business! Prior to hosting a succession of events here I was a patron who lived in the area, I never saw but one or 2 really good events. Now with that being said I do want to recognize that we did do a seriese of shows however they way we were treated the ENTIRE TIME was ridiculous! The bar tender kept coming over complaining and staring at my self and guests who were buying drinks. MY biggest issue is that even though this was a while ago I don't see any real improvements to this business. I don't want aknowlage the fact that yes we did do the events there and that was done we appreciate that but the small little daggers being thrown at us were unprofesinal. and honestly this club is so small there should be no expectations here.

Pretty chill at happy hour but gets busy at night. Great place for dancing and hip hop music. They usually have a DJ. Feels like a lounge before it gets late. There are a few TVs if you're trying to watch the game. The drinks are good and there is a reasonable happy hour. The food menu is small and typically sells out fast. There is free spicy popcorn!

This place hands down they are the best positive atmosphere, The two family members are one of the best owners that I have known definitely a place to come any day of the week and enjoy your moment have a nice drink or bring a date to make sure your night going to end up the way you want to

This place was great until a girl was getting escorted out and stopped to tell her friend she was getting thrown out when the bouncer hit her in the face. Kinda kills the mood ‍ definitely not the safest place for women. To owner:night of July 22, but happend early morning July 23rd.

Please don’t come here they do not respect their customer. Me and my friend came here. They have the most horrible customer service, their security is the most disrespectful type of people I ever met especially the one that call himself Dwight and I’m pretty sure he gave me the wrong name.. This business won’t stay open long because they are disrespectful. No respect for women. Hookah is so horrible. Please don’t be like me and waste your time trying to support a business that don’t value you. I learned my lesson

One of the best places to meet new people and have fun. The drinks are Amazing and so are the Bartenders. Great atmosphere, you are guaranteed a night of fun when you show up.

Fun place. I ordered a long Island and it was $13 from one girl, $15 from another. I'm not sure what that's about it. They charge for admission which is whack because drinks are pricey. I forgot I was in the Bay but even when I lived here I didn't pay admission. I did like that they had a water dispensar for the public.

Chill vibe from 4pm to 9 pm then gets lively when the deejay starts up with the Hip Hop after 9 pm
