Seawolf Public House

Just shy of nine years in business, Sea Wolf Public House in the Jack London Square neighborhood will permanently close after service on Saturday, July 19. In addition to 16 taps and a full bar, Seawolf served a menu from Wilson Mendez including burgers, wings, nachos, tacos, soups and sandwiches. 

“We have weathered our fair share of challenges, but our lease is up at the end of summer and we are not able to continue operating the business any longer,” said Monica Plazola, one of Seawolf’s owners, in a closing announcement. “We’ve had a lot of love and support from the community and it’s really hard to close the doors, but we have to say goodbye.”

The pub first opened on February 14, 2017, and will host its final trivia night on July 16 and a final comedy show on July 19 as it marks the closing. To help pay outstanding debt, Seawolf is holding a silent auction from 4-8 p.m. on July 12 during which a pool table, shuffleboard table, art, antiques and memorabilia will be up for bid. 

“We encourage everyone to come by, raise a glass, and make the most of our final time together,” Plazola said. Sea Wolf is located at 350 Fourth St., Oakland
