Karaoke Bar · Downtown San Jose · 24 tips and reviews

69 E San Fernando St (btwn S. 2nd & S. 3rd), San Jose, CA
Dive Bar · Downtown San Jose · 26 tips and reviews

Carlos R.Carlos Rado: CASH ONLY Thu-Sun. Very 'divey' type place with a pool table in the back, cheap beer, strong drinks. Good place to just kick it with some homies to just bs about stuff. Not good for dancing.

7.1
805 Lincoln Ave (at Lonus St), San Jose, CA
Wine Bar · 19 tips and reviews

Carlos R.Carlos Rado: The place may seem divey, but the crowd is usually upbeat. Weekends get busy with a DJ playing anything from 90's hip hop classics to today's dubstep hits. Put a decorated dollar bill on the celing!

Carlos R.Carlos Rado: Nicer looking venue than Tres next door, but usually not as exciting. $15 RR beer during games, otherwise the drinks aren't that cheap. They have some pretty good chicken wings too!

Dive Bar · Mission District · 55 tips and reviews

Carlos R.Carlos Rado: CASH ONLY. Very chill place, make sure your girl likes beer because they don't have girly drinks here. Grungy type bar, anything besides jeans and a t-shirt is too dressy. Great for 1-on-1 hangouts.
