Excellent Pizza and Atmosphere

OK well location is a Pro if you're nearby.

I really love Jupiter's for a night out at a fairly classy joint. The food is good, the outdoor patio is really nice, and the staff is friendly if not overly present.

Also there's beer. That's good too. :D

• Pros: Good food & beer
• Cons: Price, parking, location

Best microbrewery in East Bay

by GGupta at Citysearch

Move over Pyramid, I think Jupiter's Red Spot has won me over. The atmoshepre is great, but you just need to come with a crowd. If you are a lone, it is not an ideal place to meet people, because everyone is set up at tables, not too many stools available on the bar itself. Great selection, great price.

Come on, you serve pizza and beer...

Now, I am a huge fan of pizza and beer. A winning combination at any price range! They have a wide variety of beer from local microbrews, and will serve it to you eventually. The pizza is also spectacular... as you may realize by the stunning decor, this isn't a bar that happens to serve food by coincidence, they do it right. However, they are very protective of their atmosphere, and the staff is downright rude (not only cold-shouldery, but verbally rude, to your face) if they don't like the looks of you. I just wanted a place to grab pizza and beer after work. This is not that place. I have nothing against up-scale restaurants, but if there's a dress code there should be a sign on the door... it's a more polite way of communication than the hipster-bartenders snide comments at my friends.

• Pros: -sweet- decor, reasonably priced beer, great food, live music
• Cons: their staff only talks to you when alluding that you should leave
