A true locals spot. Sausalito's favorite dive is where to go for a “Schooner” — the bar’s 32 oz mug-o-suds — play shuffleboard, pool, and darts, watch sports, or just get away from the sunshine and tourists. This is a no nonsense bar, so try not to order anything muddled or blended here. Might be best to stick with beers and shots. Smitty’s is most definitely keeping Sausalito salty, but with smiles and good times for all.
In northern Sausalito, away from the bikes, tourists, and traffic on Bridgeway, is the Sausalito Seahorse. The perfect blend of Tuscan dishes and seafood, Seahorse is a lively bar & eatery that is known for live music three to four times a week. They have an extensive dinner menu, but if you’re in Sausalito for the day, swing by for a panini on homemade focaccia or a schiacciata (Tuscan style pizza sandwiches), all made in house and available 11:30 am - 4pm. Their weekly happy hour (Monday - Friday/4pm - 6pm) is popular with locals, and features wine & beer specials and ½ price apps. And if you’d like to grab a pint with your pooch, you’ll be happy to know that Seahorse boasts a dog-friendly garden patio.
Locals and visitors alike crowd into this treasured Sausalito watering hole to hear great music, dance, and enjoy reasonably priced libations. The No Name Bar's back patio is always packed with merry folks swapping stories, playing boardgames, and sneaking a smoke. To drink at The No Name is to harken back to the good ol' times when Beat Generation legends such as Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac would pontificate over beers, fueled by the sounds of saxophones and snare drums.
Equal parts fish market, restaurant, and bar, The Seafood Peddler has happy hour 7 days a week from 4pm to 7pm. Chat with one of the friendly bartenders at the horseshoe bar and enjoy live Dungeness Crab, wild caught gulf prawns, local Petrale Sole, Hawaiian Swordfish, and Ahi Tuna delivered fresh daily. Make sure to try their clam chowder, which has taken home 1st prize in the Sausalito Souper Bowl competition, held every year in January.
The unofficial slogan of Cabo San Lucas is “No Bad Days” and as this restaurant’s official slogan is “A Taste of Cabo in Marin”, Saylors makes sure to impart that laid back Cabo vibe to everyone who visits. Smiles abound whether you're cozying up to the bar, spreading out in a big booth in the dining room, or chilling on their Agave Terrace.
Order up one of Guillermo's famous Margaritas and some chips & guac first as you’ll want to take your time reviewing their massive menu of traditional Mexican dishes. Choose from classics like fajitas, tostadas, and burritos, as well as especiales del dia, like chicken pot pie on Mondays or Chili Colorado on Thursdays.
