The Griffin - Classic Cocktails and Coffee

The Griffin features a dark, cave-like entrance framed by oversized, heavy wooden doors and a red neon sign that glows against the Fremont East concrete. Inside, a series of narrow, interconnected rooms house large fireplaces and mid-century style leather booths. It occupies a space that once served as a classic neighborhood bar before the area shifted into a tourist district. Local crowds still claim these dim corners, far from the polished casino floors just a few blocks away.
