Oakland’s got grit, soul, and attitude for days—and honestly? You need a dating app that has the same. We've had enough of tech bros "slumming it" from SF and serial monogamists with crystals but no car. It's about time an app tapped into something real. OBC is the answer to the question: where are the vibes are high and the singles fine?
OBC Oakland is built for connections that feel like they belong in a Solange video—soft, bold, and just a little chaotic. Where singles know their way around an afterparty and a protest, where late-night links actually happen, rooftop kickbacks turn into mornings together, and you meet someone who gets why Lake Merritt walks hit harder when you've got a buzz. Oakland has big energy and big potential and OBC brings together the singles who have the same. Join today for FREE.
No, I don't want to meet you for coffee. Here are some nightlife first date ideas that bring the Oakland vibe.
Drinks & Deep Cuts at Bar Shiru
Vinyl bar, sexy lighting, and music that makes you want to lean in close. You’ll feel cool even if you're nervous—which you won’t be for long.
Boozy Brunch in Temescal
From bottomless mimosas to hot takes about who really runs the Bay, this is your chance to vibe in daylight. Don’t be surprised if brunch turns into an afternoon walk… or nap.
First Fridays in Uptown
Art, music, food trucks, and pure Oakland energy. It’s chaotic in the best way—easy to bounce between bars and booths while lowkey holding hands.
Sunset Smoke Sesh at Joaquin Miller Park
Pack a blanket, roll something up, and enjoy views of the Bay with someone who won’t judge your snack order after. Romantic, hazy, and uniquely East Bay.
