I've been to all three establishments, though it's been some time. All of them would be appropriate for our rabble....or WERE, anyway.

Geographically, I tend to favor the San Mateo location. It's less of a drive for people coming from Berkeley/Oakland and San Francisco or Pacifica.

It's been so long since I've been in O'Neils that I should poke my head in again on a Friday and check it out. That will be a while, though...I'm currently in Livermore for reasons some of you know about, and won't be back on the Peninsula for probably a week...it's hard to say. I'll go in when I can and report back.

None of them have live music, though. It's pretty tough to find a kid-friendly place that serves beer, food AND has live music. The Live-Music thing, added to "beer" usually means "raucous bar". HOWEVER, the former proprietors of O'Neils were keen on the idea of having a season if I could find the players.
