There's nothing really exciting within walking distance from BART at Dublin/Pleasanton if that's what you mean.  It would be more like a BART and short bus ride.  Honestly, I've never done a meetup so I'm not familiar with the protocol, formality, or what usually occurs during a meetup.  Does a restaurant work since the proposed date is a Thursday evening?  There's the Hopyard (http://www.hopyard.com Wheels #8 bus from BART) or the #10 bus gets a person to downtown Pleasanton with the pleasant Main St. atmosphere and numerous other restaurants.

According to Wikipedia (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Bay_(San_Francisco_Bay_Area) ) the East
Bay does include Pleasanton.  That being said, if you've got a suggestion
for somewhere to meet that is near BART in Pleasanton/Dublin, then by all
means, speak up.
