Plank

A very fun place to hang with family and friends! The food is good and games are even better but don't be caught here from 9pm on with your children. They have contractor security guards aka flashlight cops aka top-flight security guards that will tell you that you need to leave. But not only that. They will try and tell you that they need to see everyone's ID like if they are the police. So go early and leave early.

I actually didn't come here for the bowling; partner and I stopped in to the arcade and enjoyed a bit of time playing skee ball, air hockey and some virtual reality arcade ride. It was a fun selection of old and new games and a nice place to pop into after dinner as we walked along Jack London square.

Pretty awesome place! Inside and outside seating AND games.
Inside has a bowling alley and arcade.

Food is pretty good.
Service was fast.
Staff was friendly.
Absolute blast of a place!

Fun time bowling yesterday. We had a few drinks while bowling. Had an appetizer as well. It's pricey but worth every penny

The plank was great oh, there were four of us ate there and we all came away with the same feeling that this was a very good place to eat. We have the Bourbon Street Burger that was great. One of the parties had the brussel sprout salad said that was the right choice and the waiter Steven was a good waiter. We only come to Oakland once a year but the next time that we come there we will definitely eat at the plank.
