Danville

Danville, an affluent East Bay suburb near Mt. Diablo, has a bar scene that leans toward pubs, cocktail bars, and gastropubs rather than classic dive bars - BarFinder lists 25 venues here, a mix that includes real local spots like Bridges Restaurant & Bar, The Growler, and Wild Vine Hideaway Lounge. A couple of wine bars round out the lineup, fitting the suburb's generally upscale character. It's a scene built more around a nice dinner-and-drinks night out than a rowdy bar crawl.
