47 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Bolinas

“What a gem of a restaurant! We unintentionally stumbled upon Bolinas earlier this month while on vacation. When the Muir Woods closed due to the government shutdown, we pivoted, and we are so happy we did. Our party of 8, which they so accommodatingly allowed us to spilt into separate tables for 4 adults and 4 tweens, had the best time on their patio. The service was stellar and warm, the atmosphere was friendly and there wasn't a stranger to be found, and the food was even better than both those combined. Thanks to the whole crew for being the highlight of the day.“

“Got the Da Kine Greens which was full of flavor and healthiness and kale. While it was also a million dollars, being in this pseudo-hippie town full of reclusive wealthy people, it still was worth the snack. Would stop by again if back to charming Bolinas.5 stars!!!“

“My go-to when I'm in town! Fantastic food and service. Highly recommend!“

“The reviews don't lie, this place is fantastic. The fish was sooo fresh and generous. The rolls were delicious and well-portioned, and priced comparably to the other high-end places. Even though we called at the last minute, they squeezed us in with a quick turn time. The service was friendly and we all agree this is the best sushi in Marin.“

“I had a great experience at Angela’s Ice Cream. Their service really stood out—they happily let customers try different flavors before deciding, which made the visit even more enjoyable. The ice cream was some of the best I’ve had, and our server was especially friendly and welcoming. Her warm attitude made the whole experience feel personal and memorable. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Talked myself into trying something different today... Fried chicken thighs and it wasn't up to par as the pork belly is. The chicken may have been over bribed as I found it real salty :-(“

“Such fresh good food. I made my own scramble it was beyond delicious!!!“

“woah. i dont really say real deal but real f***** deal. well balanced. superb quality. exceptional service and presentation. clean flavors. first time I have actually been left utterly speechless. 5 stars. 5 forks. whatever. this place is the jam......“

“Great place to have a delicious dinner, friendly staff and amazing food.“

“Good atmosphere Great food and service“

“Love what they’ve done with the place ! The huevos rancheros is awesome“

“Ordered a seeded levain bread to go, a lemon scone and the blueberry maple syrup muffin. Perfectly ready early and was notified which was great. The muffin and scone were excellent…tasty! The bread, which is a tad pricey (12.50) was overdone on the bottom so unfortunately the overpowering taste was burnt. Decided to salvage the excellent bread by cutting off the burned bottom! I have not experienced this at other fine, artisan bakeries in the area. May have to try the epi!“

“love love love it here! my mom and I stayed in fairfax for a whole week and we ate here several times. food is amazing, atmosphere is amazing, staff is amazing. special shout out to our main man Ty who remembered us by name and was always super fun and friendly every time we came in. he may even play you a few songs on his guitar if you’re lucky. this place was definitely a highlight of our trip and i’ll miss going there when we leave. we could also tell that this place is a huge hit with the locals which is always nice to see. thanks for all of the great food, drinks, conversations, and songs Barefoot Cafe! until next time! -Ebony“

“I clicked liked it although I am still looking forward to trying the place. I had to click stars in order to post this comment, which I wanted to post in advance in hopes that the restaurant might become more of a real Jewish Deli than the sandwich photos show. The pictures show the sandwiches to be super skimpy, nothing like an authe tic Jewish deli makes sandwiches with the thinly sliced meat layered high and thick. For decades the San Francisco Bay Area has gotten away withcalling mere sandwich shops Jewish delis, You're not really serving this sad little Skippy sandwiches with 2 to 3 slices of layers of meat instead of many layers of delicious slices of meat piled high. Not since the Union Deli on Union Street in San Francisco closed decades ago has San Francisco had a truly excellent deli. In any case I look forward to trying this one, although with low expectations due to the photos.“

“Great food, great service and reasonable prices for the area. Had the chicken tikka masala, and would order it again! Medium spiciness and found it to be on the milder side of medium.

Arti made us feel at home, and took care of us, even when they were getting takeout orders persistently.

The ginger ale has a spicy taste and you can really taste the ginger. I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re expecting a soda that tastes like Canada Dry. The mango lassi drinks in the fridge are really good, and I don’t generally eat mangos.

Recommend coming hungry after a hike or day at the beach!“

“Their sauce is truly outstanding; you can taste the quality tomatoes. I had the some like it hot and added their house made vegan ricotta, which was creamy, mild and a great complement. Love that they’re vegetarian—whole family ate a meat-free dinner?“

“food is top notch and the bar always manages to overcome being buried!!“

“I recently moved to San Anselmo, and am so happy I “found” The Hummingbird in nearby Fairfax. It’s in a good location at 57 Broadway Blvd. with plenty of free parking across the street. I really like the New Orleans vibe at The Hummingbird. The menu includes several creole items alongside standard breakfast and lunch choices. The servers are friendly, helpful, and efficient. The food is fresh and delicious. I love their catfish po’ boy sandwich. The fried green tomato BLT is very good too. My third visit will happen next week — I’m thinking waffle & fried chicken this time . . . or maybe the fried shrimp po’ boy sandwich.“

“Great venue, excellent hosts and good afternoon tea. Always stop by before I fly back to the UK.“

“I had lunch here with a friend and it was such a nice break. Sitting on the sunny terrace at the picnic tables gave it a real vacation feel. The lunch options are fresh and farm-to-table inspired, simple but well done. The bread is excellent, so good that I brought one home. A relaxed spot with good food and an easy, pleasant atmosphere.“

“Split rock just dropped Thai inspired smash pork tacos and they are incredible. I’m not a fan so I get it without that, but I had Sriracha and the flavor is just mind blowing best thing in Marin right now. Also if you come before five, Sterling’s serving beer and his knowledge of beer is amazing. He offers you testers to see if you’d like it and knows what everything tastes like. Definitely me and my wife’s favorite place right now.“

“Stillwater is one of those places that really captures the laid-back Fairfax vibe. It has a great mix of good food, drinks, and live music, which makes it more than just a typical bar or restaurant.
The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, with a nice indoor/outdoor feel. It’s a great spot to hang out with friends or enjoy a casual date night. When there’s live music, the energy is fun but not overwhelming, and you can tell it’s a local favorite.
Food and drinks have been consistently good on my visits. The menu has solid comfort-style options, and the bar makes quality cocktails. Service has also been friendly and attentive, even when it’s busy.
If you’re in Fairfax and want a place with character, music, and a good community feel, Stillwater is definitely worth a stop.“

“Literally unbeatable when it comes to flavor!!! This BBQ is legit mouthwatering, and Big Jim is the best! A must try if you live in the Bay!“

“Fabulous meal. We were greeted kindly. Staff very attentive. Menu selection was plentiful, both breakfast and lunch. My husband ordered their special hot stone pot with chicken mango. 5 star presentation and so yummy. I had the Hemingway Benny. Again, presentation and taste were 5 star! Portions were more than generous. Highly recommend!“

“Really good pizza, amazing risotto, awesome caesar salad and kick ass Brussels sprouts.

First I went for the pizza and was really happy with it. Then I saw they have risotto and tried it. Then I saw they make their own pasta. Been there a couple of times and didn't even order the pizza and was completely satisfied. Last time there I tried the ravioli of the month which was really good.

It's definitely our regular pizza place now.

Service is hit or miss. Never bad.

On cold days it does get cold inside at times. Not the warmest place to go for dinner. Last time it was actually freezing inside and I felt like the AC was on when I was in the 40s outside. After about a half hour the heat seemed to have kicked in and it warmed up. That was weird. If you get cold easily bring a jacket to wear inside.

Update after a few visits over a year or so:
Tonight was spot on with everything. The monthly pizza was the best we've had so far. I love how they change up the risotto. It's good each time. I usually get the caesarlina salad which is delicious but since it was a cold day, I tried the minestrone. It was fantastic. I finally remembered to take pics this time.

There are a couple of new really good spots in San Rafael now that do legit Neapolitan pizza. Pizzalina shines with their crisp NY style crust.“

“Watershed Chef Kyle Swain is the best in Mill Valley!“

“This spot is amazing!! My kids say its the best chicken strips they've ever had, and the full bento box meal is so great. The cold cucumber salad, whipped feta, and the poke bowl are my faves. But everything we've tried has been so delicious!“

“Fantastic artisan food. Handmade corn tortillas & quesadillas made from organic corn ground daily in house. Farmers Market ingredients & sustainably sourced proteins. Local new chef/owner & partner are committed to building a community hub around food made with LOVE!“

“Iconic Fairfax destination in the heart of town. Great food! Superb coffee! And wonderful friendly staff! Shout out to Mario who was both the cook and the server for my birthday outing. As it turned out it was also his birthday. Thanks for the delicious avocado toast, the yummy baklava dessert and the happy smiles, Mario! ¡Feliz cumpleaños!“

“Food is pretty average. Not too many options nearby, so it does fulfill Thai food cravings once in a while. Little pricey for the quantity. The sauce in the pumpkin curry was way too watery! Would skip that dish! The price is certainly for the location, not for the food. For better quality and reasonable price a little drive south or even downtown San Rafael would be a better option.“

“Love everything on the menu! You can’t go wrong with it!!“

“Amazing Asian tofu salad! Only issue is I carried out and didn’t see that you have to pay extra for them to mix it. That is bizarre and was super annoying but it is truly addictive and my boyfriend couldn’t stop talking about it. I wouldn’t change a thing except the staff was rude and the salad should be mixed without an up charge!“

“The best açaí bowls I’ve ever had. They also put granola on the bottom and top which is a nice detail so you don’t have straight açaí at the end.

Dietary restrictions: It’s all vegan

Parking: There’s a big parking lot next to it and there’s usually street parking that’s free“

“Beautiful establishment with friendly service and a nice beverage selection. However, their food left me desiring more—their peaches weren’t ripe enough and very hard, and their Greek salad seemed more like an arugula/ onion salad with small amounts of tomato and cheese.“

“I'm from out of town. our team has been here since December 2022 .we have traveled all over san Francisco and surrounding cities within eating and trying new food's. i will have to say i have found the best wings in san Francisco. tried all three flavors and the were cooked just right with awesome sauce. i definitely recommend stopping there. james swanger from liberty SC“

“First time there. Had good breakfast and then listened to our friends play some great music. Have to go back.“

“Beautiful brunch place with classics without being overwhelmingly greasy. Good service, good ambience, even the indoor seating feels like outdoor give the massive windows and open concept. Food was delicious and they have a good menu as well. Huge place so you feel like a community here, which is so rare these days.

Also no music so that was a big bonus!!“

“Love everything on the menu! You can’t go wrong with it!!“

“Went on a Sunday morning and even though it was busy I got through the line quickly and my drink was ready in just a few minutes. I got a black and white mocha and thought it was very sweet but in a good way. It can feel a bit cramped inside but there is plenary of outdoor seating.“

“Great food. Friendly staff. Good music walking distance for me“

“I come here sometimes it’s very good histories and overrated for because it’s very good but also located and a very good place and mostly I will give it a fly but today I’ll give it a floor because the varieties of pastries you could choose from there are not a lot“

“Best fish and chips I’ve had in a long time. Really cute place to stop. Would definitely recommend it!“

“Good value and beers on tap.“

“I highly recommend Mrs. Beth Abrams for her exceptional work. She specializes in forex and bitcoin investment, as well as funds recovery. Over the past three months, I have been utilizing her services, starting with an initial investment of $1,500. Thanks to her impressive trading skills, she helped me make over $12,000, and I've been consistently enjoying significant profits with easy withdrawals. The numerous testimonials from satisfied clients reflect the excellence of her services, and I am equally pleased with the results.“

“Good service and good food“

“Been going here for the past year and have been so impressed with every experience. Their bread is baked fresh daily, sandwiches are made with that personal touch and the cooler is stocked with a plethora of great choices. They have beer on tap, an outdoor patio area seated away from the bustle of the main road, solid Wi-Fi and plug-ins. My personal favorite is the Lostrami on Dutch Crunch.“

“I don’t know why this place has less than 4 stars? We sat outside and ate lunch here after an 8 mile hike from Mill Valley and the food was really good. I had a Benedict #2 with shrimps and crab and a root vegetable hash. Great stuff! They also have a coffee kiosk/bakery and a more casual menu for take out.“
