Blue chalk is fantastic for a night out: dancing, great drinks and music! I've been for dinner too and it's delicious! All around a great evening out whatever you're looking to do! They even have beer pong!

The Blue Chalk Cafe is a very interesting place. The food is very good and the atmosphere fun. There are pool tables there you can play. The service was fairly fast and friendly. I would go back.

Ive never been here for dinner but hear that its good. I have been multiple times after dinner hours when it turns into a club and I always have a good time. Drinks are moderately priced

I stopped going to the Blue Chalk
by xicanista
The men that go to Blue Chalk are so rude. They literally push women out of the way as they walk through the dance floor. Why so rude, people?
Pros: Upstairs you can usually find some space to breathe
Cons: the people that go there

Fun place with good food!

Great atmosphere, food and service. Awesome music with DJ on the weekends. If you are in the Palo Alto area, you have to drop by this place and experience for yourself.
Pros: Great service
Cons: always busy

Awesome Happy Hour
by jaqandchris
Blue Chalk has it going on. We started the night around 7 thinking Happy Hour was over, but someone told us Blue Chalk has a Happy Hour that last until 9pm. AMAZING! The music was good and as the night continued a live DJ lit it up. As did we on the dance floor!
Pros: Cheap drinks, tasty appetizers, and good crowd
Cons: Drinks were so good we spent a lot of money

worst pace ever
by debutante1
My friend had her birthday party there, and the service was horrible. The waiters would take our plates when we weren't even finished eating half of our meals, the alcohol was like water, and the food tasted overcooked and presentation was obviously lacking... The staff was highly unreasonable, very hostile, and rude. I would never recommend the blue chalk to anyone.
Cons: rude staff, bad food, expensive

Totally Awesome!!
by shaunap
Great crowd, great music, and only 5 bucks to get in! This place is awesome and their website doesn't do them justice. I went to this place because it was recommended by a friend. I decided to visit their web site first to see what kind of scene it was and was like, this looks hella lame. But once I got their I was greeted by so many different people, friendly bouncers, and great hip hop. The drinks are good too!
Pros: Diversity, Drinks, Music
Cons: Small Bathrooms, Ran out of TP, Ran out of towels

Cons: v crowded arnd bar, only two bthrm stalls

Surprise! Surprise!
by Svanderberg
Never been there before!! Will definitely go back!! The menu was creative with a couple of fish entrees that looked absolutely delicious. I had the salmon in a jack daniels apricot bbq sauce. Fresh and superb! After dinner had a couple of drinks and shot a few games of pool. Bar filled up fast with 25-30ish professionals. Good time!
Pros: Food, Games, Bar
Cons: Parking, Crowded
