Our friend was able to park here all day on a Saturday with no issues, so it seems like a reliable spot for commuters or carpooling. Overall, a great free parking option in the area.

Thus, this place is a useful meeting spot for people in the tri-valley area, since there are no BART stations near this area (exactly midway between Dublin and Walnut Creek BART stations), carpools are more efficient here. The parking lot is right off the sycamore exit of I-680, is a safe place to park without having to waste 20 minutes on local street to park at my friends' house if we plan to go somewhere else. Oh yeah, and the Google bus comes here.

I thought of taking my computer to work there and simply could not concentrate. There is a constant din, like in a restaurant. One might say, it was because of school students, but there were many adults who contributed to it :) The library staff needs to do a better job of enforcing silence. They should visit their sister library at San Ramon, where its a lot more silent. Or even the Dublin library, where there are designated 'quiet areas' and people are specifically told to converse in whispers.

Cool old laidback kind of town with some really old well kept buildings…read more There is street parking with spaces available even though there are a lot of cars on the street. There are some small shops as well a a bunch of places to eat. Overall the town seems to be a little confused with a vibe that seems to be stuck between trying to be a little bit more modern and at the same time trying to keep the old town charm.

This review is for the parks and recreation reservations department. Danville says they are a…read morefamily centered charming town but I just called the reservations phone number to reserve the meadow and gazebo at Hap McGee park for a first birthday party (the website says it's great for birthday party's, events, weddings etc) but was told no seemingly because it was for a baby's birthday. The man on the phone asked what type of event I wanted to hold, he said he recommends the picnic area. I told him we weren't interested in that area. He continued for a good 5 minutes going on and on about there not being enough parking, they usually only like to rent that space out for weddings, or they rent one house at a time, again suggesting the picnic area. First of all, Whether the picnic area or the meadow is rented out the parking situation remains the same. I finally just asked for clarity to end hi rambling, it's either a yes or no and he said "yeah I'm going to go with no". What! We're Danville residents simply looking for (and paying for) a place to hold a birthday party. It's available, I called 5 months in advance and he said no. Incredibly rude and I would love a sincere explanation as to why because apparently the decision is up this gentlemen and his mood for the day.

Very square mall. I have been there since the grand opening nearly eight years ago. It's very…read moremodern, spacious, and clean. Not many retail stores, but more fancy eateries for the upper class. There's also an Equinox, which is a famous fancy gym. Everything is almost expensive as Santana Row. Some security guards are walking around on duty. The parking garage is a bit curved when you enter and exit. I only like the Christmas tree area, which is beautiful to look at in the evening, including the water fountain in the kids' area. It's nice to walk around and take profile pictures, but not much to do until the holiday season. Overall, this is great for families to hang out and for rich people to dine in.

Shout-out to the unknown vendor who built the 2026 "Year of the Horse" photo booth. A heads-up: the space availability numbers posted outside the parking garage weren't accurate at all, which made the search more frustrating than it needed to be. It was also tough navigating through the crowds at times, especially because the toddlers in our group couldn't see anything over the crowds. That said, City Center Bishop Ranch truly offers something for everyone in the family. There's a splash pad that's perfect for little ones, plenty of restaurants at every price point for picky eaters, and even fun options for adults- like a DIY cocktail crawl for the 21+ crowd. We once made it our mission to try every margarita on property! I ran into my retired high school teacher, bartending at THE LOT (movie theater). On the shopping front, I do all my Anthropologie returns here, and I've been refreshing my inbox waiting for news about Rico Rico Taco opening here (I'm obsessed with their Oakland location). As for dining, I've enjoyed meals and treats from Slanted Door, Salt & Straw, Roam Artisan Burgers, Philz Coffee, Mendocino Farms, Marugame Udon, Delarosa, and Boba Guys. I still can't believe that sleepy San Ramon now has so many fantastic eateries and experiences all in one place. It's quickly become a go-to meeting place for our extended family.

It is very picturesque here, with the ducks swimming in the man made ponds, the waterfalls and the fountains. But with most places being closed, and the place being pretty much empty, other than the Blackhawk Museum which was excellent, it really took a lot away from this place. You could tell this was a very happening place when all was well, especially in this area of Danville!!

On the plus side, neither the one being feted nor many of the guests will mandate a party that runs more than a couple of hours and you can bet those hours will be daylight. Enter the Danville Community Center, where a close friend hosted a party for her mother's 90th. This is not the sort of space where food or drink is provided. If you want that you'll arrange for it separately, just as my friend did. She also self-managed a slide show, music, and a couple of group dances. The whole affair was perfect and the spacious, high-ceilinged room (with free on-site parking) was nicer than possibly any community center I've ever been to. While I'd not suggest the Danville Community Center to those who don't live in the East Bay if you do, and you're seeking an event venue, it is quite worth checking it out. Perhaps it might even inspire you to host an event.
