Five Points Bar was the perfect last stop on our barhopping night in San Jose. They were doing a Harry Potter–themed pop-up, and it honestly did not disappoint. The bar was decked out with fun details, and the Harry Potter–inspired drinks were all on point.
My favorite drink of the night was the Phoenix Ember of Gryffindor — a bourbon-based cocktail with honey and hot apple cider. It was incredibly smooth and warming, making it the perfect drink for a cold winter night. Definitely one of those drinks you remember after the night is over.
One of the coolest surprises was the hidden speakeasy in the back called The Bowery. It’s a small, intimate space with just a few places to sit, which gives it a very cozy, exclusive feel. They even had letters hanging from the ceiling like in Harry Potter, which was such a cool touch. It felt like a little escape from the main bar, and they were playing different music back there, which added to the vibe.
Overall, Five Points Bar is a super fun spot with creative themes, great drinks, and a unique speakeasy experience. A must-visit if you’re barhopping in San Jose or just looking for something a little different. ✨

I stopped by for some beers and the vibe was really lively, so I might come back and get ready for a night out.

I was here for a private event and had a nice experience.
LOCATION
This bar is conveniently located near San Pedro’s square (SPS). You can park in the SPS parking lot which provides 90 minutes of parking for free and only $1 for each additional 15 minutes. It’s a short 5 minutes walk from the parking lot to the bar.
AMBIANCE
I like the spaciousness and warm decorated vibes that this place gives. Noise level is reasonable. Their restrooms are also clean and tidy.
SERVICES
Our server was attentive and made me one of the best Amaretto Sour drinks.
Overall, I enjoy this place. Though I haven’t tried any of their food item yet, I heard good things about them from my friends who’ve been here before. I’ll definitely consider Five Points next time.

I don’t really do bad reviews but I was really upset about this business. We were having a 30 year birthday next door and want to continue our celebration at five points. We were a group of 8 Asian American girls but only had a bottle of champagne between the 8 of us. The bouncer declined our entrance and continued to let other people that were not Asian American that looks very intoxicated through the door. We asked why and the bouncer just simply said “no”. No explanation or anything.

I was looking for a restaurant with live music on a Monday night, I found five points, and I was thrilled.
They had a live jazz/blues band that seemed to bring in different instrumentalist. It was so much fun to watch.
I had the most delicious nacho fries.
The drinks were really good, but had a lot of ice and they were playing the raider game on TV.
My server was super nice and attentive.
What an awesome night!

Good drinks and atmosphere – walking distance to the Sharks game and a nice stop prior to the game.
We ended up getting a great booth on the back of the restaurant and it was a delightful experience. The service was also excellent.
Revised / 5 stars when we arrived for service, atmosphere and the drinks but when the food came it was a solid 2 stars. Being gluten free, I had limited options and ordered the nacho fries.
They came cold and not appetizing at all. Rounding up to 4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ based on the other attributes but not a dinner destination for GF or even others.

Between the tasty cafe they had/have and the carefully crafted cocktails, this place is worth a stop. Locally owned by some cool folks, this bar is a nice place to relax. It has TVs but not with audio, so the scene is chill. No non alcoholic beer selection, so I drank Coke but the chicken sandwich was delish and the fries had a ‘MickyDs’ saltiness n quality to them that I enjoyed. My buddy got a cocktail with chartreuse that he enjoyed enough to order a couple. The staff was nice. Quiet yet friendly, and attentive when we got her attention. Beyond the basics of what to expect from a bar, this place also has several cool elements like pennys on the floor, a secret room, and lots of great historic vibes with the interior. This is the kind of place that lasts for decades, and I hope it does.

Absolutely love it here. My wife and I came here for a few late night drinks on a Wednesday. Service was excellent. We where taken care of by Tom and Benjamin. Their drinks where amazing. We got x2 of there top drinks, Off On a Comet and The Green Ray plus a few extras. Came a little late for food (no food after 10pm here) but as for the environment and drinks, Highly Recommend it! We’ll be coming back for sure with more friends in the near future! Side Note: Bartender mentioned live music on Friday & Saturday nights

I’ve gotta say, this may be one of the best bar ideas and executions (no pun intended) that I’ve ever seen. Five Points is based on the real life characters and happenings portrayed in the movie Gangs Of New York. Not only is the decor stunning, but the cocktails are out of this world. I came for Happy Hour and loved it so much, I stuck around for the jam band Jazz session later in the night, and then proceeded to shut the place down!!!
I had the Blood, List, and Diamonds, their slightly different take on a Vieux Carre. It was smooth, not too sweet, and strong. And the addition of a luxardo cherry puts it over the top.
Tyler was an incredible host and bartender and gave me the history of the place and decorative style. There’s even a little speakeasy room where you can have private events, or they open if it gets crazy on the weekend. Even the bathrooms are decorated with hand painted scenes from the gangs.
Because they do not serve food on Monday, they are pretty relaxed about letting you bring munchies from outside locations. I did have to run out to get something to eat, but I was back for the music.
Every time I’m back in San Jose, I’m definitely going to drop in and say hi
