What I expected good bar and great music. I was surprised to find phenomenal food. An added bonus was the bartender was great! He suggested everything we ordered and his choices were excellent. A definite return.

Great place for a drink or dinner. Here on a Friday night and they had a Jazz group playing. Interesting setting.

I’ve been here a couple of times. The live music scene on Friday’s is fantastic and you probably can just walk in without having to make a reservation. It’s slightly tricky to locate this one since it’s located within the hotel. Great drinks and service along with ample seating for larger groups.

I attended a happy hour here with a group. I was very pleased with the service of the bartenders and waitstaff; Great energy and service. Their outdoor patio is completely covered nice eating warm fire feature. Nice snacks on the happy hour food menu 4 to 7 PM weekdays.

Beautiful old bar – very classy. Acoustics are poor though if you are there for the jazz. Conversation is impossible when the band is playing. Wine selection is reasonable, and service was good.

Neat space, but largely falls flat. The bartenders were chaotic and not good – I ended up pouring my own beer that I waited for forever. They and the waitstaff gave the impression of just not caring.
Bar selection was weak. It’s worth walking a couple of blocks away from this place to experience far, far better places that San Jose has on offer.

Very cool vibe. Classy selection of jazz combos Thu, Fri, Sat. Friendly fast service. Well crafted cocktails.
Creative selection of food, reasonably priced. Quality and taste is OK for a bar, but could be better considering the location in the DeAnza Hotel.

I have to say, I grew to LOVE Hedley Lounge! The vibe is different with a live jazz band, much of an older crowd, but their kick-back and cool, service is top-notch, and the happy hour? Yep, something you gotta try! Drink menu offers high-class spirits and a great selection of wines. Food is to drool over….LOVE the thin crust pizza for $8!! Come early to get better seating, because it does get crowded during the weekends! Just exactly how I remembered it the first time I came here, interior is gorgeous with high ceilings, low-lighting chandelier, and the rustic villa theme going on…perfect for an evening in SJ.
Happy hour Mon-Fri, 4pm-7pm
$4 well drinks
$3 beers, signature cocktails
1/2 price pizza

One of the best places for live jazz and good drinks in San Jose. Huge ceilings give this lounge an open feel. Good for as well. I would try not fyi get there too late though as the jazz doesn’t go late into the night like nyc.

While the music has always been on point, (tonight a quartet of bass, trumpet, sax, and drumset), the drinks lack character. So does the ambiance with the lights of the hotel blaring through the arched entrance and the mismatched furniture struggling to fit into a potential vibe. What happened to the sofas? What’s up with the World Market lamps tucked under the unflattering curtains? And the one page excuse of a drink menu? Where did the book go? The bands do please though. And the price was great.
