Update: Ben ‘N Nick’s has become my go-to spot in the neighborhood. The bartenders and servers are super fun to chat with, the beer selection is solid and rotates pretty frequently, and the food (nachos, chicken Club, wings, etc.) has been really spectacular the last few times I’ve come in. Special shout-out to the burger– absolutely perfect and a great price during happy hour! I also took my family here when they visited from out of state, and they loved Ben N’ Nick’s as much as i do. Great spot to hang out and have a few beers and a solid meal!
Original review: Fun neighborhood bar with a cool atmosphere and friendly staff. I’ve tried the buffalo wings, Philly cheese steak and chicken sandwich from here on 2 different occasions. The wings are great and I will definitely be coming back for more, however the chicken sandwich and Philly were both a bit bland and got extremely soggy after a few minutes. From now on I’ll probably just go with the wings and a beer when I come here because they are awesome, but I will probably not have the Philly or chicken sandwich again. Would recommend this spot if you are looking for some great wings and a cold beer.

Great food, very chill atmosphere and lots of tvs with sports ball on. Service was fast and attentive but never overbearing.
Grilled cheese & tomato soup hit the spot on a rainy day. 5/5. Arguably one of the best grilled cheeses I’ve ever had.
Club sandwich 5/5 it was very juicy, the bread was perfectly toasted and the fries were hot and crispy.
Guinness was poured perfectly as well.
Dog friendly covered patio/ parklet

We had the best time last night at Ben and Nick’s so I thought I’d leave a review. Our server Jessica was outstanding. Super friendly and attentive. The food and drinks were great! We’ll definitely be back again I’d highly recommend Ben and Nicks

We live in the neighborhood so we have been here several times but are not regulars. Everything is OK but it’s missing something that would make us want to go there regularly like other places.
We went again yesterday and sat on the parklet, which was nice because it was a hot day with particularly went for the live music, but found out later that they had canceled it. That would really have upped the allure as College Avenue is severely lacking in live music, but the waiter informed us that some people thought the music was too loud and didn’t like it.
Hamburger was good. French fries are good if you liked the extra crusty kind, but our friends did not enjoy their chicken tenders. Mixed Salad is big and tastes good.
Dogs are allowed on the patio but there’s not much space for them. We have large dogs so we cannot take them.
Metered parking or park at the BART free after certain hours or in the neighborhood for free.

I’m not sure where to start, the double cheeseburger with a fried egg was out of this world. Chicken wings were bomb with blue cheese. And you can’t forget the onion rings…we’re the best I’ve ever had! Awesome selection of ciders and ipa husband and I, will be back!

Great neighborhood spot! They’ve got a nice outdoor parklet and tons of room inside – all self-seating. I just got the pretzel with beer cheese and it was so good. Service was great and they have a nice selection of beer + cider on tap. Definitely will come back to try their other offerings!

Great beer selection and delicious food. I had an IPA and a beet salad with bacon. Delectable. Especially the fried goat cheese (or was it feta) that it came with. I wish I had had room to try the burger. My friend had one and it looked good. Beware that Tuesday is trivia night. It changes the feel of a pub like this while they are posing the questions. Easy parking evenings at Rockridge BART half a block away.
