​Bosco's Bones and Brew
A Howlin' Good Time Bar & Grill




Why are we called Bosco's Bones and Brew?
The story was reported worldwide how two men lost to a dog named Bosco in an unofficial Mayor’s race in the town of Sunol. ...No one realized that prank in 1981 would make the town of Sunol so famous! From then on, people just accepted the fact that Bosco was the Mayor.
On July 24, 1984, the Star newspaper wrote an article about Mayor Bosco. The article said he ruled with an iron paw, took grafts from all businesses in town, in the way of beef jerky (which was his favorite) and dog biscuits.
Many news articles had been written about Mayor Bosco, and he had appeared on television numerous times. Even his death in 1994 was on television as well as in news print.
So you see, Mayor Bosco made the town of Sunol famous! As a tribute to Mayor Bosco and the town of Sunol, the restaurant and saloon is named Bosco’s Bones and Brew
