Deciding between a house in Pinole or Concord, want real opinions before we commit.

Which is better for raising kids overall?

Schools — how do they compare?

Downtown/things to do in each?

Commute to South Bay (Dumbarton) — which is worse?

Any regrets or things you'd pick differently?

Would love input from anyone who's lived in (or compared) both.

Anyone aware of any watch parties, or restaurants/bars to watch tonight's game in the Concord/Walnut Creek/Pleasant Hill area?

Moving out of Concord and just want to shout out some legends both dead and alive:

EDIT: I CANNOT BELIEVE I LEFT OFF ALPINE BAKERY. EASIEST PLACE TO BURN THROUGH $100 ON THE BEST PASTRIES AND CAKES YOU'LL EVER HAVE. TEAM MACAROON VARIETY PACK POR VIDA.

- Flying Colors Comics - Joe is a comics and Concord legend who is the most unassuming dude on the planet. Has be in the running for longest continually operating business in town. New location, same lovely people.

- That mini golf spot on Clayton Rd. Not the indoor place, the outdoor place. RIP

- Caffino Drive Through coffee spots where the Large Iced White Mocha with a Quad shot got me through many a night. RIP

- Hoffman's Reptile Shop - never set foot in that place but a local icon.

- Digger's Diner - I think you're gross but my whole family loves your nasty ass food so I go and am disappointed everytime but that, in and of itself, is beautiful to me.

- Bambinos v. Skipolinis- I feel like this is the true old timers Concord argument. I love them both but Bambino's has the full bar soooooo.

- the batting cages at the Willow Pass Softball Fields - always been a cheap and great way to kill an hour on the Northside of town.

- Bourbon Street Grill - low key great place to see a show and sneak drinks when you were 19. RIP

- Time Out Bar - low key great place to see a show and sneak drinks when you were 19. RIP

- King's Donuts - God Tier. Real one's know.

- Waterwold NOT Hurrican Harbor.

- Momoyama Sushi - best sushi place in town even though drunk dudes coming out of the liquor store made it dodgy when you had to wait for a table. Never die. I love you with all my heart.

-Hunan Restaurant- I will not hear anything other than glowing reviews. My favorite restaurant in town, period end of sentence.

- Half Price Books - the old location. RIP

- El Patron Tacos - best in town. Bonus points because I used to buy whipits at the sex shop in back when I was 16.

- Patty's Cheese Zombies - nuff said

- Captains Chest - last cash only bar for years, kinda mad they take CCs now, but still top 3 dive bar in town.

- Buchanan Fields - I hate golf but love putzing around that course.

- shout out to dude who used to sell us schwaggy ditch weed by Roundtree Apartments in '96.

hey all! i want to start getting into making UV resin crafts (polymer clay mainly) and was wondering if there was an area in concord/pleasant hill/walnut creek where i could be in a good ventilated area and use resin. im worried about doing it at home because i live with family and a dog and dont want the fumes to effect them. any ideas? thanks!

I love the clam and garlic Pizza from SF's Village Pizzaria, but now that's too far to go. Anybody know anything like this in the Concord/East Bay area?

Any recommendations for a casual sit down lunch in Walnut Creek or concord?

Hey, I need to replace my roof. Has anyone had good experience with a roofer lately?

Hella loud boom at around 6am, woke me up and could feel it shake the house. I want to say a transformer but this isn’t the first time this has happened so his often do transformers go boom? Anyone know?
