Awesome spot, easy parking. Not from here, so I told the waitress to lead the way. Beer was fantastic, just what I wanted. However, the chicken sandwich was super mid, tasted like pickles, no chicken. Took the chicken out and ate it, and no flavor. Sad but great spot. If I am back in town, I'll give something else a try. Awesome spot, though. Plus, they give a Tootsie Pop with your meal...what!!!??

First Street Alehouse is a Livermore classic! Their food is great, and I really like the ambience too. I got the Peruvian chicken wings, and they were quite flavorful. I also like their Cajun fries. Thankfully, they had an actual Guinness glass so I could try to split the G, but I unfortunately failed :(
P.S: They also have the largest beer can collection on public display in the U.S.A!

Pretty good place, went here for lunch and got a hamburger. It was very good, just a little too charred smelling, other than that, it was delicious (got a free lollipop to go:D)
The inside of the restaurant is pretty huge and the outside dining area is pretty and it’s quiet outside. The service was good and we got a table immediately since there’s so many tables in the place.
