Heinold’s First and Last Chance Saloon

Heinold’s First and Last Chance Saloon

Having a drink at dog-friendly Heinold’s First and Last Chance Saloon is not to be missed when you’re visiting Oakland. It is located on the shore of the estuary in Oakland in what is now Jack London Square. Heinold’s opened June 1, 1884, and since then, patrons from all walks of life have been enjoying their spirits and tastefully abrasive atmosphere and slanted floor (thanks to the 1906 earthquake). 

The Saloon’s interior, itself a montage of America’s past, reflects events from Vietnam, World War Two, Prohibition, and even World War One. The cozy inside-seating and bar is complimented by the outdoor patio with more seating for patrons. You can enjoy your drinks in the sun while watching the boats go up and down the estuary. Dogs are welcome to join you at Heinold’s.
