Montclair Village in Oakland

This week I discovered a neighborhood in Oakland, CA called Montclair Village.

I drove dear daughter to volleyball camp at St. Mary’s College in Moraga and decided it was best to stay on the East side of the Bay instead of driving back and forth over the Richmond-San Rafael bridge twice in one day. Since I had 3 hours to kill, I stopped by to visit Amy who works nearby in Montclair.

I had no idea Montclair had such a charming downtown full of boutiques, cafes and restaurants. I was hungry so Amy suggested we try the local Taqueria Las Comadres. They have a great early Happy Hour Special: $1 Soft Tacos and $2 Fish Tacos. I think the Happy Hour Special goes from 3pm – 5pm but I’d recommend calling first to confirm.

Las Camadres is a cute little Taqueria with tables inside and out. We ordered the fish tacos and sat outside and enjoyed the sunshine. The tacos were great!
