Mythical Maids of Oakland

Spend some time hanging out at Café Van Kleef. Gather with politicians, artists, entrepreneurs and a host of other very interesting people at a café bar. This nightlife destination is fast becoming the hippest spot to mingle with intellectuals, enjoy elegant drinks, and hear the best from local blues, jazz and contemporary musicians.

A rose by any other name is still a rose at the Morcom Rose Garden. The municipal rose garden opened in 1920 with a green thumb that reaches across eight acres of green space blooming more than 6,000 roses. The classic rose garden is the ideal place for you to stop and smell the roses and capture picture perfect memories.

Kids go wild at the Oakland Zoo! Especially when nose to nose with a giraffe, paw to paw with a tiger, singing with the birds, and hanging with the monkeys. Enjoy a fun day exploring the attractions at a wild kingdom that sprawls across more than one hundred wild acres of natural habitat, home to over 440 native and exotic animals.

Let the good times roll at Manor Bowl. Bring the family to rent a pair of shoes, select a colorful bowling ball and spend time bowling strikes at the family-owned and operated bowling alley. State-of-the-art technology and thirty lanes host hours of bowling fun for the whole family at this attraction.
