Great value happy hour! Some of the best food and drink deals in Palo Alto. Tues - Fri, 4pm - 7pm, Mon & Sat all day

The Patio has the best service and staff of any bar in Palo Alto or Mountain View. They are always friendly even when very busy. For large parties, they are happy to reserve tables for you... Just ask
The burgers are outstanding! We come here because we love the bartenders but the menu has really made some improvements. ..good stuff! #welovethisbar
Maximum BurgerDecember 7, 2023Place had mixed reviews, but honestly I liked the spacious, casual-but-formal vibe, high energy trivia night and decent food. Although, obviously terrible prices here and in this area generally
AnnalynnMarch 27, 2016Chicken tenders were good, but the bartender didn't know how to pour a Guinness or make a good old fashioned
Ann Marie AlanesAugust 8, 2015Tip is for dance club hours. Top 40s music is fun. Hella crowded sausage fest full of grabby rude boys who don't ask nicely but ego trip if you wanna feel like you still "got it".- Love the outdoor area in back as a venue, but goddamn the service is slooow. Zero rhyme or reason to when a server finally gets to helping you.
Brittany GiudiciFebruary 17, 2015Sliders come with too much aioli but are otherwise great. Fresh bread as well.
excellent brunch and bottomless mimosas! will come again!
Mihir GandhiApril 24, 2018The patio... food and drink are standard, but the outdoor seating is king.
Venkatesh HodavdekarApril 23, 2015I like the outdoor seating. I really wish they had better cocktails/bartenders.
AllieOctober 14, 2011Much bigger than it looks from the street! Check out the huge back patio... duh!
Security likes to flash lights and herd you, pushing you around during later hours.
Garlic fries are awesomly hot fresh and garlicy! So good!
Danielle FSeptember 15, 2013DJs here are PAINFULLY boring. Their laptop has a set, and that's what will play. Don't bothering requesting anything, just go down the street.
Patio at Rudy's is commonly known as "Prudy's": for those who are too prude to go to Rudy's.
Juno YumiDecember 10, 2011Before 1am they play great hip hop but after that it's just a lame playlist
Jose Antonio Tena SendraAugust 15, 2015They close too early, music ok. Not great. But basically the only place in Palo Alto.
