I have been a regular Tilden golfer since 2019 (especially on Tuesday nights...when the real pros come out!). The recent opening of The Overlook has been a fantastic addition to the course. They did a great job with the drink selection, with lots of local beers on tap. The outdoor space is so nice, with heat lamps and a fire pit. Also, if you haven't been out to Tilden before, you will love the views and serenity out there. It reminds me of getting a drink at the top of a ski resort in Tahoe. Bravo Tilden!

Very excited for the Outlook to finally open. The redesign is beautifully done, the layout in and outdoors is very spacious and accommodating, and the views are great.
I’ve been 3 times with my family and there’s something for everyone. While not particularly fancy on paper, everything we’ve tried has been good. The beers on tap are excellent.
We live in the Berkeley hills and have been eagerly awaiting a restaurant that we can go to in the neighborhood with friends and/or family and the Outlook hits the spot. Looking forward to live music, trivia nights, and more family fun.

Friendly, attentive staff and a nice setting for a casual meal. Unfortunately the food we tried just wasn't very tasty. My harvest salad had a baffling combination of ingredients: watermelon, greasy Brussels sprouts, whole cherry tomatoes, tiny friend capers, seeds, chopped lettuce leaves including the hard core of the lettuce— it didn’t make much sense and it was hard to get through. My husband’s sandwich was similarly unpalatable. We might come back to try something safer, like a burger. Hopefully they can improve the food because the location is very good!

A hidden gem in Tilden Park!
The new Overlook restaurant / bar is a great asset to the neighborhood with great food, excellent beer selection, and relaxing environment overlooking the golf course.
The course itself is challenging, while remaining fun, even for those who aren't great at the game. You're just taking a leisurely walk through Tilden park, great views, always an enjoyable experience!

I've been playing at Tilden Golf Course regularly for about four years. In my opinion, it keeps getting better, especially since the new management took over.
I'm excited about the newly opened Overlook restaurant/bar. The outdoor space looks amazing, the beer selection is solid, and it feels like the perfect atmosphere to relax with friends after a round of golf.
The course itself is challenging, with the added bonus of being surrounded by the natural beauty of Tilden Park. I think the staff does a fantastic job maintaining the course, and the fairways and greens are consistently in great condition. If only I could just hit the fairways and sink a few more putts...
Highly recommend the course and The Overlook for anyone looking for a great experience!

I had the Tilden burger with fries. The meat was well cooked and juicy!

Had a really good whiskey rubbed roast beef sandwich after a round of golf. Beautiful location. Friendly staff. Nice variety of beers.

What was once a pretty decent cafe with great seating views now just disappointing.

Great outside area. Perfect spot to sit and relax after a round of golf or just to sit and enjoy some food an a nice beer. The burger is average but good. The fries are nice, but are usually really salty. The chicken tenders are good. When I'm in the area, it's a nice and relaxing spot to enjoy. Staff is friendly.

This is the place to come whether you are grabbing a beer and a burger at the turn, or need a quiet table to talk business at a nondescript place in the east bay. PS - the fries here are to die for...!!
Why is this snack bar so bad????????? It has always been bad. Who granted them the concession????? They have the opportunity to run a really great kitchen but it is always been an epic fail. Bad food and worse, terrible service with a mean and nasty attitude. If you hate golf and golfers you should GET OUT of the golfing restaurant business. This place is very beautiful, but this restaurant has always been the worst experience ever. Small portions of bad food at high prices.

A great option for burger and fries if you're playing golf or in the area and need lunch. Gets busy during lunch time on the weekends.

Awesome scenery and 5 min from town

Had to wait over an hour to tee off and played 18 in the dark despite an 11:40 tee time... Lovely course though!

A 6 hour round of golf, a 15 minute wait on each tee box. However, plenty of time to wank it in the bushes before each hole.
