Plank

Plank is a restaurant and bowling venue in Jack London Square featuring dining areas, 18 regular bowling lanes, and six private lanes overlooking the waterfront. The space includes both indoor and outdoor sections where guests can eat, drink, and play.

The venue opened as part of a wave of new dining and recreation spots along Oakland's waterfront. It helped transform Jack London Square into a destination for mixed-use entertainment and gathering.

The menu draws from California's regional food traditions, using locally sourced ingredients in dishes from street tacos to wood-fired pizzas and smoked meats. Visitors can see how the kitchen mixes traditional recipes with contemporary cooking techniques.

Guests can reserve bowling lanes or space for private events ranging from small parties to large corporate gatherings. The venue offers multiple options, so it helps to think about what you want to do before arriving.

The venue has a large outdoor beer section with more than 40 beer taps and screens showing sports. The waterside area with fire pits creates a social space that works year-round.
