The third Friday of each month, 7:00 PM. Only one source reports it.
As of Sep 1, 2026, the venue's own current events page lists three upcoming instances, 7:00-9:00 PM each, that vary rather than repeat -- Sep 18, Oct 16, and Nov 20, 2026 -- each correctly falling on the 3rd Friday of its month [s1]. A linked individual event page confirms the same [s2]. This resolves an earlier discrepancy: a Sep 4 date shown before was mistaken; the 3rd-Friday pattern (Sep 18) is now confirmed directly.
A ticket page on eventbrite.com lists this night, but may not be current.
Weekly on Wednesdays, 8:30 PM. Only one source reports it.
The organizer's own websites both fail to resolve entirely (checked Sep 1, 2026). A ticketing site's category page for this event shows genuinely varying, upcoming instances at the correct address, including one dated Sep 22, 2026 [s1]. Real, current programming exists here. But this is a general listing page rather than one owned by the organizer, so it stays unconfirmed.
Weekly on Tuesdays, 8:00 PM. The Venue's Website does not mention it.
The Venue's Website (re-checked Aug 31, 2026, fully read) has no mention of 'open mic' [s2]. The venue is also absent from an open-mic listing site's full curated database [s3]. The open mic was originally claimed by an open-mic listing site [s1]. This absence on the venue's own current site supports an unconfirmed status rather than a closure.
Weekly on Tuesdays, 7:00 PM. The Venue's Website has gone offline since we found this.
The Venue's Website now serves unrelated content and no longer represents it, so this is not evidence either way (re-checked Aug 31, 2026) [s2]. The venue is absent from an open-mic listing site's full curated database [s3]. Its confirmed entertainment is Friday karaoke instead. This Tuesday claim comes from an open-mic listing site [s1]. It has no positive support, though that alone isn't enough to call it inactive.
The Venue's Website lists, in present tense, 'Karaoke - Mondays 8pm / Free Pool - Tuesdays 6-9pm / Open Mic - Wednesdays 7pm / DJs - Thursday 9pm-12am' (checked Sep 1, 2026) [s1]. A social media post describes an open mic every Wednesday at 7 PM at this venue [s2]. An open-mic listing site also lists Wednesday.
Billed on the Venue's Website as open to "all performers"; past open-mic guests named include musicians and at least one comedian, so the exact mix is unclear.
Weekly, but no source gives the night. Only one source reports it.
Call to confirm the night
A listing on bayareaopenmics.com lists this event, but may not be current.
The venue's main domain no longer resolves. Its current site gave access blocks on every page tried (checked Sep 1, 2026), none of which counts as evidence either way. An open-mic listing site names it a Monday open mic with no upcoming dates and a last event on May 4, 2026 [s2]. That directly conflicts with a Tuesday weekly claim [s1]. This contradiction remains unresolved.
Every other Tuesday, 7:30 PM; which weeks is unclear. Something about this has changed recently — confirm before going.

As of Aug 31, 2026, an open-mic listing site's dedicated page for this venue, last updated Aug 28, 2026, states the event runs the first and third Tuesday of the month, twice monthly, not every week [s1]. This is corroborated by the venue's own homepage, which shows an upcoming Sep 1, 2026 instance, a first Tuesday [s2]. They agree on doors at 7 PM and the show starting at 7:30 PM.
Weekly on Wednesdays, 7:00 PM. The Venue's Website does not mention it.
A regional open-mic listing site's pages for this venue show only a Tuesday music night and a Thursday storytelling and comedy night, and no Wednesday event appears anywhere in its full venue database (checked Aug 31, 2026) [s3]. The venue's own homepage does not mention a Wednesday event either (checked Aug 31, 2026) [s2].
Monthly on a Thursday, 7:30 PM; no source says which week.

As of Aug 31, 2026, another listing site's full venue database was checked and has no listing for this Thursday storytelling event. The original claim traces to an open-mic listing site [s1]. The venue's own dedicated page for this event, however, clearly states the current recurrence as the second Thursday of each month -- a distinct, well-documented page rather than a thin template [s2].
As of Sep 1, 2026, the website address listed for this venue was a squatted domain with unrelated content. The real site was found, whose Tuesday page states: 'Every Tuesday, the Starry Plough's award-winning open mic... Sign-ups begin at 7:30pm, show starts at 8:00pm. No cover!' naming the hosts [s1]. A listing site shows a next date of Sep 1, 2026 -- today [s2]. Neither source carries a publication date; confidence is medium.
