6 Best Dive Bars near Fairfax

“Amazing place and people!!!! The manager, Candice, is so sweet and helpful! We got married at Deer Park Villa nearby and chose to have our after-party at Nave's after looking into multiple bars in the area. Nave's stood out to us over the others because of the friendly, casual, laid-back, and fun vibes! Candice made it so easy for us, helped us coordinate with Ghiringhelli's Pizzeria in town to have late night food there and ready for us when we arrived, and even let us bring our DJ and allowed him to set up his equipment and continue to play for all of our guests. We cannot thank her or Nave's enough for this! They even let us come back and do it all over again the next night! Some of our best wedding memories were made here this weekend. All of the staff and other customers were so friendly and welcoming to us! We definitely recommend Nave's for a wedding after-party or event! Contact Candice and you'll be in the right hands. 10/10!!!!!!“

“went in this bar Monday afternoon after walking across the bridge... very friendly and good vibe“

“Great music on a Wednesday night with a friendly crowd and Jared, the bar manager stayed on top of all of it all night. Will definitely go back on another Wednesday!

Parking: there are dedicated spots in front and across the street with open street parking on both sides. Too easy.“

“Great for events and parties or just swing by for a drink. Best well kept secret in Marin. Fun funky bar and great outside patio area. There is a wonderful upstairs hall as well with a private bar and kitchen. Lots of options.“

“Nascar Pete pulled it off again . Was crowded so we had to share TVs lol but never the less Pete was great today .“

“Craving bars after the forced time in due to Covid, and wanting to boost their business after trying times, we decided to try Silver Peso/ It's a regular bar, the likes of which you'd find in midtown New York City, with pool tables and TV screens. The bartenders are efficient. They ask what type of tequila or gin you want in your drink, but give you a blank look when it comes to fancy cocktails; no lavender-infused martini with elderflower liqueur and a sliver of candied lime rind (I just made this one up, but if you've been to fancy cocktail places, you'll understand!). They know the classics, however. The prices are reasonable for Marin County (2 drinks usually cost about $22). As far as I can tell, no food is on offer, except small packages of chips!“
