The beer is world class (and award-winning). The food has its ups and downs, but on the whole very satisfying. It's a pub, after all.

BEST pizza you'll find in Marin - probably the cheapest outside of Round Table, but the quality is outstanding! They don't deliver, but go pick it up and have a bread stick with it! Good salads and entrees, as well.

Arts & Culture

Fantastic stories of the history of this sport that all started on our local trails up on Mount Tamalpais. Be sure to ask Marc Vendetti about some of his stories of their WWII bikes on the mountain with nothing but their own two feet to bring them to a stop.

Shopping

This little shop has some of the coolest trinkets, doo-dads, tee-shirts, and gifts you'll find in Marin. Nearly always a great movie playing in their mini-theater. Ask them about "kids night out" on Saturday night, if the parents need a night out.

From the beaches to Tomales Bay, hiking, kayaking, nature and wildlife. Point Reyes is something to experience! Check out the lighthouse, walk out to Limintour Beach, drive all the way out to Drake's Bay (and more beach), or kayak on Tomales Bay (the right time of year will enchant you with bioluminescence in the water). Incredible views, ocean, hiking, and wilderness.
