About Bistro 33 and the Davis City Hall Building

According to Davis Wiki, “since 1938 the Old City Hall located at 226 F Street has served as City Hall, Fire Station, Police Station and, since Summer 2005, a restaurant (as the Bistro 33 banquet room). The building was originally designed in the Spanish Colonial Revival Style by architect P. L. Dragon. When it was dedicated on August 31st 1938 much mention was made about the special case that held the “Jerome Davis Trophy”.

In the past, Bistro 33 served as home to Comedy Night on Tuesdays, the Poetry Night Reading Series on Wednesday, and the Bistro 33 Pub Quiz on Mondays. All of these cultural offerings for the City of Davis have been cancelled, or moved elsewhere. The Poetry Night Reading Series takes place on the first and third Thursdays of the month at the John Natsoulas Gallery.
