Chef's OBD — Oakland Beach Diner & Leroy's Lot

Venue review

The musician's read

Chef's OBD at Oakland Beach combines a diner, bar and outdoor entertainment area with recurring Friday and Saturday live music. Rock, tribute and acoustic acts fit the 21+ weekend setting, where performers should bring enough energy to turn a casual waterfront crowd into a night out. Outdoor-friendly bands with broad repertoire should do well.
