Vinnies Bar & Grill

Went during lunch, so didn’t get to experience the full atmosphere, but it seems like a great place.Service was friendly and quick. The food was pretty good. I had the fish and chips. The fries (“chips”) were crispy and thick. The fish was battered and cooked well.Will definitely go back to try something else and when there are more people to experience the atmosphere to its full effect.

Went there for a show, love the atmosphere and the mix crowd. Theres an outside area for smokers and a pool tables for extra entertainment. They had a vendor with some amazing popcorn I got as a ride home snack 👍🏾👍🏾 @hungrysnacks101. Bar: everyone was nice and served us quickly with lots of options, Grill: food came quick but just was kinds weird portions worst part was the salad dressing supposed to be ceasar but tasted like vinegar. Overall I would go again but Ill eat before I go just save room for the popcorn.

Had a great time. Granted it was in the middle of the day so it was slow, but that’s my vibe. The few people there as patrons were awesome as well as Bob, the bartender was a sweetheart. I would definitely go back!Hey Bob! It’s your friend from Trinidad lol!

Came to support my friends playing corn hole and met some amazing local folks who shared all kinds of experiences with me. The owner is one nice guy. I had a positive experience here and I will be back

Vinnies had been updated since I last attended over 5 years ago. The outdoor patio looks amazing, and the inside looks very nice as well. Staff was kind, attentive, and fast. I went during late night hours and I have never been for food.

Whats up, Googlers? I m back at it again with another one for you all. We got there about two hours right before they closed, just in time to see a performer performer on stage,so that was cool, For any establishment, its always nice to have live entertainment. The bartenders were all professionals at their craft, you can tell. By the way, they all worked together, and they had a smooth rotate rhythm. Unfortunately, i didnt get a chance to try out the food because we got there really late for dinner but stayed for drinks. But it was really good to vibe there. Im mean really, really good vibs. Great place to hang out at. Thank you, California, for the great time 🙂. If you guys enjoyed my review, you know what to do. @peterparker_33

Paid way too much money for too short to hang out on stage & play partials of a handful of his songs. Over and around that it was VERY disorganized & a misrepresentation. I like Vinnies just not that event & I love too short just not that event. NEVER AGAIN!!!

Is there a more quintessential neighborhood dive bar than Vinnie’s? Pool tables, video games, beer, cocktails, fried food, karaoke. I could see why this place has been here for so long. Something for everyone.

We went to Vinnies for the free comedy night January 21. I believe the MC said comedy night happens every 3rd Monday, but I could be wrong. Contact them to verify.So about Vinnies... when 1st entering I felt like an extra in the Cheers TV show. But nobody knew my name. However, the patrons lining the bar seemed like they were all old friends. They were deep in several simultaneous conversations. And that includes chatting with management and staff - who were all very helpful and personable.Heres the only negative for the night; fending for ourselves. We were not sure if we seated ourselves or if someone would direct us, so after some hesitation we headed to an open booth and settled in for the 7:30 pm show.We had to try out the food (after all it is a Bar AND a Grill) I found their menu on my phone and after a little investigating my wife discovered we had to place our order with the barkeep. As the show began we received our burgers and fries and munched away between bouts of laughter. The food wasnt half bad, by the way.If you havent been to a live stand-up comedy show you need to set aside a little time and come out to Vinnies. There is a world of difference from seeing polished comedy sets on television and watching it live. When you sit in the room you can feel the audiences connection to the comic. Or sometimes, the disconnect - after all these people are working on their material, and it doesnt always go as expected.Vinnies is definitely worth stopping by any night just for the company. But, especially worth a night of comedy. You will have a much deeper appreciation for what these comics do, and endure.

I went here for lunch once and decided to pick up a burger. Mostly because its been walking distance of my office. I was uncomfortable going into a bar during the work day.I wasnt expecting much but I was pleasantly surprised. The burger was good plenty of bacon enough barbecue sauce but not so much that it overwhelmed the taste of the burger. I will be back.

Good vibes, nice play to play pool with friends. You can also play dart for free when you leave your ID. They also have a Jam box where you can choose your music.

Clean pool table I usually don’t have a problem getting a table , Thursday nights are fun, security and door people are polite , bartenders do their job, drinks always delicious could be stronger maybe , if you’re hiring let me know !

Vinnies has expanded and is bigger and better than ever! Lots of room, several pool tables and an outdoor area make vinnies a great place to have a good time. Staff was friendly and the place was jumping. Metal has returned to the local scene! Good people and good times!

Went to hang out and shoot some pool on a Sunday afternoon. Nice environment, friendly people. Got a little hungry and went to order food but the cook was off and we were told wed have to wait for the next shift, but the cook overheard and said hed make us some food. Excellent customer service. It was much appreciated!!

Our fav place! Weve been coming here for over 10 yrs.! Love our bartenders: Myra & Francisco! The chef D has the best sliders& taco salad👌!We love playing pool there!!

It was a fun karaoke night with a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere. The patrons were friendly and very social, making for an enjoyable experience.

I came here with with my co workers for a dinner event. It was a nice place. It started getting packed towards the end of the night. There were people learning how to dance bachata. I was able to order my food to go. But I left early before it got packed. And the food was okay, I can’t say much since it a bar. The food could have been better.

I didnt get to eat there but I had a drink. And played pool. Nice company. Had fun! He beat me!

Great place for live bands, Big Bar, 5 pool tables and 2 dart boards. Lots of room to get around and a rear open patio.

Vinnies is our go-to place for live music, dancing, and a late dinner on Friday or Saturday night. Its like 20 minutes drive from mostly everywhere in East Contra Costa County. The food is outstanding, even at 10:30 pm on Friday night in a packed bar.Kudos to them for supporting and hosting local rock cover bands, original artists, Latin Salsa, comedy and more.The place is clean and well lit with a large, private patio in the back (great to take a break from a deafening performance or cool off). They attract a crowd for most shows and it does get packed in front of the stage. Good people though, singles and couples 25-70 looking to dance or shoot pool. Security quickly dispatches the rare troublemaker and bar staff are always friendly and quick.Bring your Vaccination Card and check it out.

Food and dribks available, fun atmosphere and great music! It gets more pretty full as the night goes on. Clean bathrooms

My cousin suggested we meet up here for a drink when I came to town. We didnt eat, but the food I saw people eating looked really good. It was a friendly environment, and I liked that there was an outdoor patio to hangout.

We went for Salsa and bachata night. 3 stars means that our group had a good time dancing at the place.

Monday ~ Live MusicTuesdays ~ FREE Line Dancing Class 7PM - 8PM but the music doesnt stop till 10(ish)!Wednesday ~ Karaoke...Im not sure the time frame for this but it ends around Midnight or when the Singers stop a Singin!Thursdays ~ Free Bachata Class 8PM - 9PM SALSA DANCING!

This was my first time here.. Singles, couples, young and old were all mingling together. There was a live band and the atmosphere rivaled a stadium concert! I love finding hidden gems like these

Very rude bartender, after waiting in line and getting to the bar I asked for beer, he told me no, laughed, and walked away. Had to wait another 5 minutes for another bartender to help me while the other one continued to ignore me. No idea what his problem was or why he was so rude.

This place was quite fun! There were many bartenders and they took orders quickly and filled them quickly too. Quite many people but not too many. Live music and good atmosphere.

I got the mini sliders and they were absolutely fantastic very good I really enjoy putting cheese on it it might have needed some ketchup and it came with a good amount of mayonnaise for me and the drinks were good the security as well as the bartenders were really nice and I was there for a couple of hours before a live show started so it was full of people very happy drunk people so I had a great time

Saw KRS here on a Sunday on a 3 day weekend. Liked that they had pool tables in the back corner so we could chill out and kill time (because you know rappers wait until the last minute to come on)

I am new to the area and was looking for a salsa dancing place on a Saturday night. I came across Vinnies last night and I had so much fun! There was a LIVE salsa band called La Original SF. I believe it was the bands first time there... I really hope they come back! The ambience was great. Dancers of all ages... Such a wonderfully diverse group. In between the bands sets, I went off to the side to play pool. Overall a great little place to have an ice cold beer and have a good time with friends. I will definitely be back as long as the salsa band is there. :)PS. If youre looking for an upscale place, this is probably not your best bet. Some of the gals were simply wearing jeans with heels and a cute shirt. Some guys just had on a t-shirt. Pretty casual Id say.Also, the bathrooms were clean! So that was a plus :)

Great bartenders, delicious food, entertainment everyday. Fun and welcoming place. Love the staff at Vinnies:)

These 5 stars are for their Thursdays Salsa Nights. Thrilled to find a laid back bar serving good drinks with lively DJ latin tropical music. Mature, happy, good looking crowd ready to dance. Large space to spread but small enough to be cozy. A plus is a billiards table nook. Had some well balanced Kettle One cosmos, $10 each.P.S. I hear there are live band nights on weekends. Check their calendar on line.

I gave them 4 stars because of their poor advertising of the band that was playing and the fact that they pushed their time back one hour from when they were supposed to play. The website didnt even advertise the band we were going to see and their Facebook page only talked about them without giving the date or time of the show.The food was really good. Its a really nice place with a great space for live music plus an outdoor area that allows smoking.

Very lively and chill vibe, if that makes any sense 😎 especially on Thursday nights 🕺🏻

Went to Vinnies Bar and Grill for Salsa night. I had so much fun, everyone was very friendly and I danced so much my feet hurt today. If you come after 9PM there is a $10 cover charge (cash only), but they have an ATM inside at a fee ($5).They also have pool and dart available as well as an outside area with tables to cool down or smoke.Unfortunately they do not serve food at this time so I cannot say anything about that, but the music was good and there were plenty of dancers.No coat check, but they have hooks under the bar and some tables.

This spot was the last place I got to see my best friend B4 he rode his way into heaven miss you broRIP Harley S Schilling

Cool little nightclub with outdoor tables, billiards, long bar, live music. Great place.

Great place for some live music great drinks. They have pool tournaments also. So this hits on all levels of a good bar. A little bit for everyone. Live music, great drinks, pool and oh and a big dance floor.

Unable to rate as restaurant was packed with cornhole tournament and no seating. All tables were taken with people saving seats. Sorry we couldnt stay.

Food served after 6:00pm, pool tables, live music on weekends, great beer selection, friendly bartending, clientele from all ages, friendly atmosphere, and decent prices, what else do you need in a local bar?

Went for open mic on Monday. Good crowd, great music/contributions.

Dirty dirty dirty! In certain spots it smells so much like poop for some reason. It was so bad that me and my friends had to leave. It was way too loud, I couldn’t hear anything the bartender was saying. I just ended up asking for water. The pools tables were always packed and was basically impossible to get a table.

When I first got there the people I was with I we ordered food and we got a chicken sandwich, two fish tacos and a BLT and it was so good like I would just go there to eat. I had the fish tacos and its the next day my mouth and body still wants more. So I wanted an orange cocktail and I didnt want a tequila sunrise so the bartender concocted an orange drink and I stayed with it all night like it was so good it had fresh oranges in it. Then we had this really good rosé tequila so we took shots of that it was so smooth you didnt need no salt or no extras. They had live bands there in a stage and people that actually danced on their big dance floor. The vibe was super chill and crisp. There was no stagnancy in the air at all. The people were all different walks of life and they were all super chill. The bartenders were awesome and their customer service was great. I definitely will be going back there again.They have three or four pool tables some booths where you can actually sit down and enjoy your meal and the dance floor the stage where the and then two bathrooms. They have a area in the back where like smokers could smoke and they have a really really good selection of alcohol. They have tables and chairs too like if you just want to sit and you know watch the bands or whatever it was a really super dope experience to kick off my birthday weekend Im glad I went there totally boosted my spirits.

The best place in Concord to meet friends for drinks, play pool, listen to live music, and just have fun!

Awesome.Had an excellent experience, with the local people, with Rehab on stage in the back ground .Good times

Great place to have drinks and listen to a live band.

Fun evening..... Great aspiring standup comics..... It was good laughs!!! 👏👏

Went there for our Mrs. Roper Romp. They were so accommodating!

Not too bad as far as bars go. They have live bands that play which can be fun. People that work here are awesome!

Fun bar. Plus they laugh at most of my jokes. Good vibes.

Vinnies can be a fun place early. Later in the evening there have been many fights and people punched for no reason (from my experience at Vinnies). I have been there 20+ times over 8 yrs and usually 1 or more issues a night. The drinks are good, bartenders seem attentive, but security lacks, the club is ran like a biker club or good ol boy gang when it comes to security. Worth a shot early and leave soon after the band starts or get in a fight...just giving my opinion.

Loved this bar. The bartenders were great, and there were plenty of them. They took good care of me, even kept the kitchen open so I could eat. The burger was so good. Awesome place for live music. Plenty of street parking and I felt reasonably safe outside. The bar is pretty huge and there are a lot of tables also. Its about an hour and a half drive for me, but to see my friends band its so worth it. Ill be back as often as possible.

Love Vinnies. I play with Whytesnake and we opened for Unchained on 11/25. Awesome crowd, great sound and the bartenders are the best! Didnt have any food, but it looked really good.

Came here on a Tuesday. Not too busy. The pool tables and cues were well maintained. The drinks were strong and the performers who came on near the end of the night added to the ambiance.

Salsa nights are great here and we go every now and then. It can get pretty busy sometimes and every now and then a bit rowdy as well. Earlier in the night you can dance pretty comfortably but near the end of the night it gets really crowded on the dance floor. The drinks are good though and it can also take some time to get them on salsa night but just have some patience. The pool tables are nice when you are able to get one and we played darts there for the first time last night. The board was solid and the darts are actually metal unlike alot of bars. The scoreboard was nice as well for cricket. The security guy named Nico is amazing super friendly and approachable and is always on top of making my group feel welcomed and safe when we go. There is a 5 dollar cover on salsa nights but to us it is well worth it. Great bar!

There is a free poker league tournament on Saturdays at 1pm, points only - no money. The food is yummy and the drinks are reasonably priced. Great atmosphere!

Ive been coming here since it was Hobies Roadhouse back in the 90s.Izzy is the Man

Solid dive bar experience with pool tables.

Landon is such a great Bartender. Classy, fun, fast and able to handle a rowdy crowd. The bar is very spacious with pool tables, darts, a large dance floor and back patio. Really enjoy the various entertainment (bands, salsa dancing) they provide. They will serve a daily food special until they run out.

Comfortable hangout for drinks and barfood. The staff are all wonderful. They take very good care of you.

The drinks were good, they had bachata night. We were bored because they didnt have any music on until the bachata class was over. After, the class was over we enjoyed ourselves with salsa and other songs they played. Arrived there at 11:00 pm if you want a better variety of music.

This was the worst experience I have had since I moved to Concord. My wife and I finally got a night out to ourselves, went to this place to have a burger and listen to some music. Well we were harassed all night long by a crazy old lady who I thought was drunk or high, turns out she has dementia and is the wife of the owner- so no one would tell her to stop. She would not stop coming up to our table and bothering us, even put her hand in our food. It was absolutely unbearable. We had to stop our meal and just leave. A total waste of a night. One of the security guards told me that they are always there and that they cant do anything about it. Never going back. I would give zero stars if there was the choice. You should avoid this place like the plague!

$20 cover is steep. Probably wont be back because of it.

Pub food is really good, the fish and chips, the DBL cheeseburger are off the hook! Decent draft selection and full bar. Worth checking out!

Amazing food.. great atmosphere!!!!

My husband and I go Salsa dancing here on Thursdays when we’re in town. Great place for salsa dancing. I recommend showing up early, it gets pretty crowded as the night gets late and usually has a line outside around 11pm. They also have pool table area and outside chill area. The parking garage is also really close to their area.

Really neat pretty spacious Bar with killer music on stage. Saw some Edm Techno last night there. Was super cool vibes

This is a place that I want to like more than I do. Heres the problems as I see it:No reinvestment in the place - nothing new, ever.Not enough seating/tables - those that are there stay dirty after becoming available.Kitchen closes way too early.Drink prices are sketchy.The good?Sometimes theres a good band playing.Theres usually something to do nearby.Has potential but needs some attention from management.

Vinnies has some really great live music and the venue is huge and has a great patio. The bar tenders tend to favor locals so the wait can be looong for a drink, hence the 4 stars

You know what!!??? Didnt think that Vinnies bar and grill had good food 🌭🍻🍟🥪🌯🍔 and a back patio that is also doggie 🦮friendly 😀 good entertainment to boot of all kinds. Thumbs up Vinnies.

Great bartenders. Beer is cold, cocktails are very good and there is live music most nights. Food is.....bar food.There are pool tables and dart boards. Smoking is allowed on the back patio, but not out front. Concord has a no smoking rule downtown.

Just love this place great music and the people. Love Latino nights over there ❤️

Great food, great staff, great vibes. They often have live bands which is really nice, and the bartenders are fun/funny. Lots of space to move around, the have pool tables, dart boards, MANY T.V.s and much more!!!

One of the bars where you like to go. Bartender very friendly, guests ingeniously mixed and an atmosphere that simply invites you to stay! Will certainly my regular bar in the region.

Ended up here completely randomly on NY Eve of all nights. Good prices drinks, crowd definitely toward older rocker side. 80s rock cover bands enthusiasm not quite matched by talent but good time was had by all!

First time out in a long time! This place is so much fun. Great people, lots of dancing, high energy music, and bartenders work their 🤬off!! Shot alot of pool and got better with every drink🤣Im going back again for more fun!

A lot better than the last time I was there.Thursdays, latin music.Bartenders a bit slow in my opinion, but besides that had a great time.Space to dance just got bigger.

This place deserves zero starts for sure. There’s was an I hired cat in their planter box in front of the business. And they watched it die. The put it in a trash bag and threw it in the dumpster. Didn’t call animal control to come get it to have it scanned for a microchip. Just threw it away like it was nothing. I went a got the cat with another lady who was taking the poor cat to the shelter and having it scanned and notifying the owner was. The person I chatted with which was The OWNERS MOTHER. Was heartless and has zero compassion for this poor cat. I have attached the screen shots of our conversation. However the bartender that started at 6 who I spoke to when I am went in was very nice and didn’t know anything about this. He was helpful and directed us to the dumpster so we could get the cat and he obviously felt bad and couldn’t believe people that work there did that.

Had jalapeno poppers chicken wings and onion rings

Had my first Bachata lesson. Fun

I have been her before and enjoyed it but have been out of state for a few years. Went to see Dakila and I am African American Hawaiian mixture woman and asked for bartender and was told he would be with me in a minute but never came back to the bar to ask me what I wanted then I asked for other bartender who said the same thing then a third bartender so 30 minutes later I got a Caucasian looking girl to get my drink and gave her my money and she was served faster. I ran into a lot of great people there and the food was still great but Yeah I felt slighted. But will try again before I write them off!

Karaoke night is my favorite night happens on a Wednesday what a great fun time to have during the middle of the week! Finish it off with a couple games of pool! 🎼I LOVE THIS BAR ... ITS MY KIND OF PLACE 🎵🎶

Great place , bartenders, bouncers. Dont know about food. Patio area ok. Decent bands depending on night. People watching fun cause a mixture of characters and people dance. A lot of regulars and actually has a decent size crowd every night(dont know about sundays). Thurs salsa night too crowded and drunk/ obnoxious/ fight most likely night to occur otherwise pretty good.

I’m very disappointed I’ve been coming here for over 4 years . I remember vennies as Thursday night salsa but now it’s very less salsa playing by the dj and more reggaeton. Not a huge fan but it’s killing the salsa vibes

This place Rocks! Number one bar and grill to go to in Concord CA. Great people and entertainment. Live bands and dancing. I totally recommend to come to Vinnies. Meeting up with friends and family even meeting new friends. Totally awesome!Aloha!PineApple

Live music on most Friday and Saturday nights often with no cover charge. Hit and miss on the quality of the live bands. OK food menu for appetizers. The crowd seems a little unsocial. Seating seems to be limited although I managed to jockey for a seat. Plenty of bartenders to take care of the rush.

Local friendly bar and grill.

Vinnies has been my hangout since the day I turned 21. Friendly bartenders, and great owners. There is entertainment going almost every night plus pool, darts and plenty of drinks flowing. They have a kitchen serving good food and a smoking patio out back for those not wanting a $200+ ticket in downtown Concord. Just remember... this is a bar so its 21+ only.

I live a block away from here. I do Lyft rides on the side and a rider said it was a decent place. The reviews and pictures here on Google maps had me convinced it was worth checking out. So when I was with my friend at my place in downtown Concord, we got hungry and I suggested Vinnies. Waited with my friend for 20 minutes at a table, and we were never greeted. Security guy and bartender are the only ones we could identify as employees. Security guy was big and wore a bright yellow shirt that said security on the back, and the bartender was obviously the bartender. These two looked at us a few times but nobody bothered to say hi or even if we were supposed to order at the bar. The whole experience seemed to reek of bad management. We left because we were too hungry and frustrated. On the plus side, it was a Monday night and there was a live band that was great. There were billiards and darts. It doesnt have the typical bar smell. We wont go back and we wont recommend it. I hope this helps anyone reading.

This is one of my favs live music i play darts here

The bartender was a really cool dude, he had a lot of good suggestions in terms of brew. At the same time there was dancing going on so it was really popping at not even 10 pm ! I will be returning, it was all good vibes :)

Great place for open mics on Wednesday nights. Bigger crowds and medium sized dance floor. They dont ID at front but always carry with u for alcoholic drinks.

Fun bar and yes its a bar! My wife and I dont drive to Vinnies and we plan for hangovers the next day thats how fun it is. We have no idea what music is gonna be on just good vibes they have pool tables and dart boards if the dance floor isnt you. Rhey also have a patio out back to smoke or fresh air. Fun spot!

Great bartenders and great local regulars that hang out here, also the variety of entertainment keeps the people coming back. It also has some great pool players for the Friday regular 8 ball tournament.

Love this place! Some of the best pool tables in town. Nice staff, clean friendly environment. They serve some decent food. They have different themed nights, like Monday open mic night. Check this place out!

This review is for the back patio bartender girl on Thursday nights.Never seen such a slow, selfish, ineffective bartender in my life. The line is always extremely long, and she works with with no urgency at all. She also allows her friends to order drinks on the side without waiting in line.She needs to get replaced.

Awesome place to dance, more alive than most places you go to in the bay which are only live on occasions. They are lit every Thursday consistently packed, always at least 10 great dancers on the floor at all times. Bar tenders are great and my favorites are the dj Eddie with the BACHATA SLAPS and the securities they make me feel safe even though its in a nice, typicallyquiet area. Catch me there every thursday

To crowded and not enough bartenders need to get rid of the table that is taking up most of the space. And water was dripping from the ceiling on the right side wall from the opposite wall of the DJ. The security just walk around starring at the ladys dancing instead of securing the area.No security our group didnt get patted down like other bars or clubs ive been to and for my save i would not go again.

Good crowd, food and drinks. Highly recommend this neighborhood bar and grill. I especially love the outside area, plenty of space and they just added more to allow for social distancing and more outdoor seating.

Friendly people quality lunch food especially that club sandwich and salad as well as entertainment for all ages I havent been there in a long time its still got atmosphere for everyone.

Great live music. And I mean great! The band covers songs so realistically that I almost cannot tell the differenceService is prompt, at the bar.Only tried the fries

My first time at Vinnies, July 7th. Brought our band Anistazi to play, together with Razor Train and Ann Halen. Just a super fun night, great crowd, friendly atmosphere, beautiful setting up, clean...everything you want in a bar n grill. We really enjoyed playing there and wow ! Looking forward to coming back. Thanks to the staff for making our night a good one !

Salsa nite on Thursday, ridiculous delicious. Espectacular....😋🤗💃👌👍 Did this review over 3 yrs ago with 5 Star. But I had to edited today due to recently things has changed not to sure why new management maybe. But about a month ago they changed there policy OR regulations WITHOUT PREVIOUS NOTICE. They started asking for a state ID or foreign passport! Which I know is legal and they have the right to do it. Which bother me is that for over 5 yrs, me and my friends been going there with no issues at all to using that foreign ID. Then with no notification and from no where is NOT accepted anymore. Just imagine get there as usual and ready to have a good time to let you know that you can not come in due to new policy! Which real sucks, they could handle it completely different let those plp in an let they know next time you need this type of identification or announcement 2 months every Thursday before making the change. All this year they been accepting with no problem. Laws has not changed for buying alcohol! In the last year that I know. I have my state ID but my friends doesnt. I tried to talk to several staffs last Thursday, including the DJ and didnt get any fair answer, asked for the person in charge or owner info was told cant have. The funny thing my friend can go, to any other night club or liquor store and present the same ID from her country with no problem. I believe things will change a lot in there now when plp stop going there now they have options. While Next door NICA and Fuego in Walnut Creek is offering the same LATIN NIGHT ON THURSDAY NIGHT WITH BASICALLY ZERO DISCRIMINATION. I feel offended as latina, I believe business, can do better when comes to make a major changes. Need to be clearly notifies to all their clients in advance, been considered with them and specialty on latins night. 90% of theirs clients on Thursday are Latinos so we pretty much run the night. Me and my friends have decided to remove our business from their location until I hear from from them... And I dont buy that they cant accept that form of ID if any other place including San Francisco, San Jose, redwood city and more are accepting in their night clubs. I dont believe they will be risking their license like I was told for the person out side charging at the door! Does that make sense to anyone???

Ive been an occasional customer of Vinnies since 2005. This is my kind of place to hang out. Theyve got cool rock bands on Friday nights and almost never charge a cover charge to get in. Cool, diverse crowd. I guess I consider them regular people. Nothing bad to say about themThe guys (and occasional gal) behind the bar are great. Poor great drinks and alway great you with a smile. Same with the owner (her name escapes me right now), always a greating and a smile.My husband and I sometimes order from the grill. Philly Steak and Cheese with Fries and Ranch dressing...mmm mmm mmm, good stuff.The get my highest recommendation!!!

Salsa night the best!! You have to go if you like dancing salsa/bachata. But need to be there around 9 and 10 or 10.30 ish because after that it gets very crowd so you dont have room to dance, some people just stand in the middle of the dance floor for not reason, others pretend to dance but the only thing they do its hit you with their weird movements. Also, dont go during the summer time since the crowd get worse!

I only got to have a cocktail there so I just have to say that it was the best ice cold beer that Ive had in a very long time LOL the covid way of course LOL anyways happy New year to all take care now and yes Id highly recommend Vinnys bar and grill any day of the week!

I was there for the free comedy show and we had a fun time 😄

They have all kinds of appetizers including sliders. Every Tuesday night there is country line dance lesson! Call ahead for more details!

Food was cold this time.. last time it was the best I ever had.. I think the waiter forgot me thats why it was cold cause when he said he would bring me new fries I didnt get them until I was gonna leave. Which means he forgot again.. tisk tisk. Makes me wanna tip after I eat now . But it still was good, just wasnt the best or amazing like the first time. I brought my bf from LA to try this amazing cheeseburger and fires.... disappointed

Fun place to go & have a drink. A mixed crowd with a lot of locals. Live music some times.even though its crowded they are very quick mixing the drinks & food is pretty good.ive had a surprise birthday party here once & including other events.

Pretty awesome. Excellent dance floor and sound system. DJ killing it with salsa mereng bachata balance. Stay open later, serve some kind of food, and turn the lights lower and this would be 5 stars

Went for Mac Sabbath. Great jalapeno poppers (homemade) and food. Staff is courteous and drinks are fast.

Depending on how many people are in there, the place tends to have a bit of an irritating smell, but love the bartenders. Oscar and Izzy are great!

Walked in, took a shot of whiskey, and left.Live music was playing. I had a good time but also felt a little out of place.Older crowd than Im used to

Great fun to meet the Vinnies Cast of Characters who will always take your bad mood into laughter, bantering, dancing, eating, watching the game and yes drinking if you choose. Every night is different yet one thing never changes.....the Bartenders who if you think Ill of them then you were rude, argumentative, sloppy drunk or worse yet a person who orders a drink at a time. Either that or you asked or demanded an over pour because your cute or bought the round or because you are a new regular. They arent there to entertain you or baby sit your purse and they are the best around if treated with respect and politeness. Wait your turn and signal them with your money in the air or your kind wave. They cant hear above the bands, the juke and the banter so dont say Bartender over here and yelling doesnt help. Treat them well and tip reasonably and they are the best!

Money and laundry go hand and hand dirty people need a cleaning. this bar is know for horses and bad money. they will go so far to better up a story to me. thats the lowest a company can go. post images later.

Food and drinks great, I was there today and I had some deep fried ribs pretty tasty try them when you get there also theres a friendly game of poker that happens there on Saturday that one instructional League no money to be made but its fun with the bragging rights

Thursdays salsa music!Many updates, more room to dance!Nice mixed crowd on Thursdays in my opinion! Recommend

A strong competitor for the best dive bar in Concord. Lots of nights with live music and an easy walk from downtown restaurants for some after dinner drinks and entertainment.

If you love to dance enjoy this spot to step out for an evening of Salsa,Bachata, Cumbia, Merengue Kizumba. I had a great time in this inviting bar. $5 Thurs-Sat 9pm.

If I could give this place 0 stars, I would. I was initially having a good time, until a creeper refused to leave me alone. This man went from breathing over my shoulder trying to force drinks on me, to calling me baby, to trying to grab my hand multiple times. I directly addressed him and told him to leave me alone, and said he was annoying me and I wasnt interested. He continued to harass me all night. The bartender saw all of this going on and saw how uncomfortable I was, and simply said just ignore him. This place, or this bartender at least, has 0 respect for women. I shouldnt have to just ignore someone who is harassing me when Im a paying customer. Ill never step foot in this place again.

Good bar tenders, good drinks, and pretty good food. Its not the best looking place but it gets the job done. Salsa Thursdays are very popular.

Good environment to chill, drink and listen to live music!! Plus Bartenders are always on top of the game. They move fast and perform excellent customer service!!

Live rock and roll....good drinks.

Vinnies is one of the BEST places to go in Concord. Great people! Great food and Great Friends...Awesome live bands and dancing! Totally for sure! For sure!!!

The bartender service was quick even when it was busy. Everybody was friendly and we had alot of fun. The lady cooking was working her butt off and was friendly.

Great local bar. Friendly bartenders, decent selection of beer and alcohol, the food is surprisingly good. They have live band most weekends.

Best bar I think Ive ever been to awesome people amazing food super sexy bartenders, good drinks, live bands, dancing, pool tournaments, darts, Outdoor seating and TVs, there is a cover charge on certain nights, just call ahead.

The Security Guard outside said I haft to pay an extra $5 Dollars I have asthma and I guess if you come outside to get a breath of fresh air you cant . Not cool so be care full if you ever go outside to get a breather. Good luck to every one who comes here 1st time

I went for Cinco de Mayo 2021 and seems like masks are optional, people smoking, back patio is tiny and no space for social distance. Owner seem to not wear a mask and not care about covid. I am fully vaccinated but still Vinnies bar and grill makes me feel uncomfortable. I rarely give bad reviews, but I feel people need to know. Masks is optional, not good, this makes me uncomfortable because I have close friends who have had family members that passed away from covid. Imy self am a microbiologist and have friends in the Healthcare industry, so I know that Vinnies bar and grill needs to be more considerate with the communitys health.

Good place, more urban than you might expect.

Great place! Nice jam night and live bands!

Great place to unwind. Love the live bands and the crowd is always friendly fun. Looks like a serious pool league there too which is so fun to watch.

Nice place to go have some drinks with friends. This is a bar that also serves food. There are open mic comedy nights, salsa nights, and live bands often.

Something different going on everyday. Try salsa on Thursdays! Good menu, good drinks and very welcoming.

Had a good time for my birthday. People seemed nice enough. Tough to get a drink when theres a crowd. Starts filling up after 1030.so grab a seat.

What a mazing place great food !! Great prices doing take out at this time but once it opens again the live music cant be beat and new friends are always there to meet !!

Just love this place. Ryan kills it at the bar. I meet the most random people from around the world there

The spaghetti is better here.

Great little bar, nothing fancy. Catch live shows there for a great time! Outdoor seating for any smokers, and a bunch of pool tablesEdit:spelling

Great place to hangout, eat, play pool, listen to music and meet new friends

My first time at VinniesFood was good enjoyed the outside patio. My daughter has been going there for years.

The staff are genuine and they know the beers and the industry. We enjoyed this place very much. Lots of seating. Pet friendly patio and kind staff.

Great food great service and decent prices. I always have a blast at Vinnies. Wednesday is no cover, Thursday Salsa night. Love it there.

Monday live music was great, tap beer tasted old and flat, service was good. Not to mention a jack a standing at bar.

There food on sundays are $5 plates. Comes with 4 meats macaroni salad and potatoes. Definitly worth the price. And the money goes towards parkinsons disease funraisers.Also the bar tenders are fast and accurate.Will definitly recommend

Added extra seating on the patio and they have decent bar food. All the bartenders are super friendly and so are most of the customers.

Nice staff and people. The place was packed. DJ played good Salsa and Bachata music, but later too much Reggaeton.

Good rock and roll bar sound systems a little shaky at times but the stats really good the foods good in the beers are cold and good check it out at your over there

I went to Vinnies NY eve to celebrate and enjoy with my wife and friends the band Axis. I met the new owner, Vinnie, who purchased the bar from his dad. It was a pleasure talking with him for about 30 minutes.

It was a blast I danced and drinks are at a reasonable price bands are fun and they set out snacks for you to snack on and cold water to make sure you dont get too drunk so wonderful service.

Had a great time..I came for comedy night.. .. food is great and staff is accommodating 👍🏼 the regulars were patient LoL

Concords best version of a decent bar/venue. California sets a low bar and Vinnies surpasses that bar

For my birthday we went and I had the ribeye steak , it was Fantastic. I ordered it well seasoned medium rare, it was delicious

Looooove Thursday Salsa night! On weekdays good place for after work drinks. Headsup They dont have servers. You have to go up to the bar on weekdays for food and drinks.

Nice laid back place, breaded mushrooms were great. Fried fish tacos were great as well with the drinks.

Dont know what the smell was, maybe dirty oil but was glad to get out of there. Waitress was just ok.

Oh I loved the naked chicken wings sauce on the side and French fries, we always go there for salsa dancing on Thursday night for years.

Occasionally hosts live comedy for amateurs, booth seating, wide bar with a small selection of TVS to watch. There is food, but there are better options in Todos Santos (nearby).

The place have a cover $10 on Thursday because its latinos night, good music and good drinks

I saw AC/DZ w/ Steve Sousa from Exodus. It was a Badass Show. Been a couple years.....

Great place for shooting pool and Darts great drinks n Beer

Vinnies has been around forever. Outside smoking area. Inside bar and dance floor. Come have a drink and make new friends.

Awesome! Was so crowded, but the bands were phenomenal! Definitely would go again when in town. Great vibe...

Pretty friendly bar with good food. Also has live music or dance lessons most nights just check their calendar on the website.

They have expanded the space since the last time I was there. The stage is to the left when you walk in. Spacing is much better this way

On Thursday nights it is the best with Latin Salsa music and a great crowd of fun people. It would be nicer with some remodeling but very fun.

Dive bar

Sad! We bought tickets to the Tom Petty tribute event advertised to start at 8pm. We waited & waited and by 9pm the band still had not started playing. When we complained to the staff they were just rude. We got our money back and left.

Vinnies is one-of my favorite places to go in Concord...always such a good time with some rockin awesome wonderful friends and the staff are all really great too

Local,friendly hometown place. You will always run into someone you know, or havent seen in ages here! Great staff,service and food too!! ☆☆☆☆☆

Thursday night salsa.Packed ,mixed crowd.Great service and food and drinks.Right downtown Concord. Fun dancing.

Quick service great beer bands are a toss up

Vinnies is great & its so refreshing to see bob no matter when we go in during the day. And no matter how many months or years it takes us to go back in he always remembers us.

As I have always said Vinnies has the best hamburger in Concord hands down and I have to mention all the food is good and good people good service I have been going there for a very long time

Great place for a pint with The Gore Dog.

Fun place. Pool tables, darts, usually a live band. They have a patio and smoking area. Bartenders are great.
