Weekly Recommendation
This week’s recommendation is to check out Little Hill Lounge in El Cerrito. This amazing bar and music venue is super welcoming, has great cocktails, and is a neighborhood staple that even city folks and out of towners love. It’s up for sale, so please enjoy and support this incredible space.
