Valano Club

First review!  Okay.  Never ever, under any circumstance, go here at night.  Not EVER!

On the other hand, if you have some time to kill during the day, it's worth the drive.  Really friendly older folks are bound to be hanging out, maybe carousing and talking about times past.  Because really, that's what this place is all about.  It's like walking into a time warp.  Look up on the wall and you'll see studio shots of of Bogart, Lauren Bacall and James Cagney.  This is in Vallejo.  Anyone who's been there probably knows what I'm getting at.

Shoot some pool and put on some old country or pop tunes.  You got a shit job to gripe about?  Others do, too.  It's a great joint.  

The bartenders are of questionable repute (would you have it any other way?) and friendly.  They're generous with the mixed beverages, but don't expect to find any Johnny Walker Black Label.  I hope this place manages to stay around.
