The Florence

Absolutely loved this place! Me and my partner had such a great time here, and we felt so welcomed by everyone. We will definitely be coming back here again!

Great place to have a good time. Live band on the weekend with great dancing. The BBQ on Sunday afternoon is amazing. A good time had by all.

Mermaid rocks. Great neighborhood spot with fun vibes.

Had Great Time here With Good Friends

Had a steak dinner cooked to perfection. Live band was playing, people where dancing and parking was easy for a Sunday it was a live place!

What a great biker bar. We meet Robert, the owner, who is a really cool guy.

Such a fun place! The crowd was mature, the vibe was on point, the drinks good, and the staff friendly. I'll be back!

Great steak dinner on Sunday good place to go met up with friends so let's get some shots and get hammered make sure u have a sober driver

Always have a good time at this bar, great steak dinner on Sundays, really nice people and drinks are served perfectly

My favorite dive bar when I come to the Bay area. Incredible atmosphere, owner, bar staff and customers

Really great place. Wonderful locals, good music, I'm going back every Friday night!

We don't visit this place as much as we should. Niles is a nostalgic place. So close to Fremont but yet it looks totally different. And this place is where everybody gathers in the evening. Lot of bikers, a lot of happy people and the staff are also very warm and welcoming. They have live music on weekends. It's a wonderful place to spend time with friends or alone.

Great old school bar. Wednesdays are jam nightt, Thursday is poker and then karaoke and once a month traveling ookk league. Friday DJs, Sunday is live music at 5 pm Friday is bike night with music. And so much more ! You don't have to be a Hells Angel or the numerous clubs that come in to have a good time. Variety of people that are so nice !

Went for karaoke, stayed for the vibes. Community oriented business that has a dedicated team of regulars but is also very welcoming to new customers. Drinks are strong and the bartender Mermaid had a voice to remember. Make sure you ask her about drinks that only she makes. Will be back again!🧜‍♀️

Place is awesome. Bar keepers were nice. The band was setting up. Gotta rep the IBEW

The Florence bar is home it’s welcoming it’s fun it’s got amazing people! There is no other bar in the local Bay Area as diversified as welcoming and all around top notch for a night out with friends, going single or date night any night of the week you’ll find something that interest you. Bingo, karaoke , Live bands, Good food, Comedy night, banquet room for parties if you wish! There’s something for everyone. The all around best bartender the one and only Mermaid has my heart and soul. She always has that pretty smile on her face no matter what the situation is! Strong lady, hard working, represents my favorite bar as she should , but even more than that she is someone I’ll always call a friend! Love you mermaid!!! Stay awesome, Stay Real, Stay Loyal, but above all STAY YOU

Your traditional biker bar was my first BBQ feast and it was great eats!! Live Band played awesome and the crowd was enjoying their entertainment Old Niles icon Took a ride from. Mountain View just too eat their great deal meal .

Best Bar In Fremont! Great bartenders and badass place to eat a burger that packs a 👊!

Always have a great time coming here. Chicky was our bartender today and per usual fantastic customer service. Even in the middle of the day with barely anyone in the bar she had a smile on her face. You can tell the people who work here truly care about this place. Best bar in Fremont without question. Thanks chicky for great drinks and service 🤘🏻

1st time here, but not the last time! This bar is the perfect mix of comfortable, divey, biker and friendly neighborhood spot. Mermaid Jenn was so rad! Next time I'm in Niles, I will definitely be back.

The bartenders are awesome! Every Saturday & Sunday they have live music, along with different things during the week like karaoke and even dart league. Also every Sunday during Spring, Summer, & some of Fall they bbq steak & chicken. In the winter every Sunday they have Dijon chicken & lasagna every other Sunday.

This is one of the greatest bar & grill. Wednesday night is jam night 7-10pm. Live music Saturday and Sunday also has a BBQ for great dinner before dancing. A really friendly place to go comfortable and listen to different bands every weekend. No Drama fun friendly with great food stop by and have your self some fun! Thanks Rick for being there for so many people!

Florence bar was the perfect dive bar and what we were looking for. The drinks were great and Mermaid gave us exceptional service with a huge smile the whole time. Bonus points for playing Garth Brooks :) Highly recommend!!

New kid on the block is what they have been calling me. This local , old school, historic bar has been incredibly fun. In the short time I’ve been coming here I’ve already met so many great people. Mermaid is the coolest bartender ever! Always so attentive! Thank you mermaid and all the locals for the welcoming me with open arms!!

Had such a great experience here tonight. Heather and Priscilla were awesome! Both very attentive and friendly. If you’re looking for a good time and good vibes I would suggest coming here. Good music, great drinks , and fantastic service. Thank you ladies!

Always have a good experience when I walk into The Florence! Special shout out to Angelina, she's got a heart of gold. If you're a music lover, the music is always at the perfect volume too.

The Florence Bar is a fun drinking spot in Fremont. Perfect place for a weeknight evening drink. Mermaid is an absolute gem! She makes fantastic drinks and is so much fun to chat with. She has a stellar taste in music and I love her 90’s country playlist. Will definitely be there again soon! 😁

This bar caters to the biker crowd but all are welcome. Friendly staff, wide selection of beer and alcohol. Live music and food most weekends.

A great place to hang, sip a few with family and friends and catch live music on the weekends.

This is a wonderful dive bar. Bikers often frequent here, but they are friendly-so don't be put off. The bartenders are friendly.

went in and ordered a vodka red bull, tasted good and came with a straw. This place had a lot of people but wasn't packed like over crowded or anything, had a friendly vibe.

I played music at this little gem of a pub many years ago and I will say that it has not lost its charm. Great and polite staff - for sure! Killer bartender - exclamation point!!! Beautiful and charming bar owner - for sure!!! Great attendance and respectful audience. The one thing that stood out for me was How polite and helpful security guy is. He helped us all hand carry our equipment in and out before and after our show! We are thankful for the great reception and service we received from this staff and hope to play here again soon!

Decent dive bar in Niles, Fremont. The bartender was nice and helpful. It’s more of a cash place but they will accept cards as well. I have only been there once so not sure how the regular vibe is but there were a bunch of regulars around and they welcome anybody new to the bar.

Mermaid is a true gem of a bartender! Fun, funny, makes great drinks & takes no shit! Perfect!

Nice bar for hangout ! Price is very reasonable ! Croud is good ! Staff is also very good .

Kinda seemed like a senior citizens destination. Not bad, and it defiantly has it's historical value. Make sure to ask about tours down the mine shaft◎

I heard this place was easy going. I got horrible service from the older lady that bartends. My food was burnt - not sure if it was purposely done for just my food, everyone else's plate looked great. Took over 13 minutes to get her attention for my drink - I could tell she was ignoring me because everyone looked at both of us - Awkward! Great location nice view but shitty service.

unprofessional/ dishonest owners, they ordered products from us as a small business and never paid. I can't believe how a big restaurant like that can't afford such a small amount for products they ordered.

LGBTQ not welcome and will be removed at the request of other patrons. Was a regular here, even took my bike to fit in. Was not enough to appease the straight wite dudes

Went in, sat at the bar, and waited 10 minutes while the bartender ignored us and continued running her mouth to customers at the bar. Never once acknowledged we were sitting at her bar. We got up and left, disgusted by this blatant display of disrespect.
