50 Best Bars near Larkspur

“Me and multiple coaches from my team visited Backstage Marin for dinner and a coaches meeting. The hosts of the restaurant were extremely welcoming and accommodating (shout out Ed). They have a nice venue inside but we ate outside. The seating outside had heaters (shown in the image) and blankets. We tried both of their pizza options and they were awesome. They best dish we had was artichoke dip. All of there dishes are crafted/created in house. Literally the best I’ve ever had in my entire life. The town it’s located in (Larkspur) is a cozy town full of character. Thankful for my head coach brother in law’s significant other who recommended this going to this spot. Look forward to going back.“

“Our service was amazing. The food was very good and the atmosphere was really nice. We will definitely be back.“

“Beautiful ambiance, attentive service, delicious food and drinks, and VERY memorable tiramisu. An all around excellent choice when dining out for a special occasion! Would highly recommend.“

“First time for Ducks vs. Trojans game. Great ambience, TV distribution great and could hear the broadcast. Bartenders were super friendly and on it! Met some really nice people along the way. Will be back for sure, make the Wreck Room a priority!“

“Quirky little pub in a nice neighborhood. We stumbled upon it by chance and felt at home right away 👍😀 Unforgettable atmosphere and wonderful people, including the owner, staff and patrons! 🥳🍻👍😀“

“Great bar and bartender! Arno was a pure gentleman! Great spot for a late night drink after the crowds have cleared North Beach. We were the only two people in there on NYD at midnight but the bartender made us feel welcome and happily gave us great service even though the streets were dead. He also pointed us to a premium sandwich shop for lunch the next day. $14 specialty cocktails and $5 beers too!“

“Fab bar with a great range of booze and really friendly and helpful staff. Took the time to discuss UK vs USA measures and jiggers with me - fascinating!“

“Always fun place wonderful experience“

“Great location and food. Warm staff too.“

“What a fantastic spot in the financial district! We were staying in town for a wedding, and this was such a great spot close to our hotel. Patrick (the owner) and his team were all a 10/10! Can’t wait to return.“

“I love performing their can't wait to go back“

“Omg, they play DISCO music!!!! Yes!!! That, the bartenders and the atmosphere. I totally dig this place!“

“The atmosphere and bar itself was so much fun, the bar staff was incredibly friendly and kind. However, we paid for a private party and the DJ refused to take requests. I understand it is under his discretion to play what he wants, but he refused to play the songs the private party requested. I personally asked him to play a song and he told me he would, I never heard the song so I went back to him to ask about it playing and he told me it was going to be played soon. I never heard the song and when I asked him one more time, he said it’s no longer within your parties time frame and I can play whatever I want. I said that’s disappointing because I asked him to play the song during our private party event at this bar and he told me that’s not longer his problem and he was extremely rude. Very disappointing because this bar and the rest of the staff were amazing, but this DJ was rude and a real let down. Especially for how much money we spent for this bar for a birthday party. Do not suggest the bar hires this DJ again based on how he talked to customers.“

“Really great spot with delicious and healthy options. I went for the mixed grill, and the portions were generous and satisfying. The Seedlip non-alcoholic drinks were an unexpected and delightful surprise!“

“I had a great drink here and will be back — good conversation and playful banter with the bartender. Local spot on Chestnut with a pool table in the back. I stopped in solo just to check the vibe, since I live in the neighborhood and had never been in. Everyone was welcoming, and the staff was happy to chat.“

“I don’t know how long this will last, but right now there’s a lunch deal where you get a free martini with lunch. I got the burger which was great, and the martini was modest sized but packed a punch! It was perfectly made and really hit the spot. I can’t wait to come back and try the other cocktails on the menu 🍸“

“If I'm in San Francisco, it's a mandatory stop for me for an evening or late-night bite!“

“I’m a local, late to discover this storied place. I have had the best times here! Great live music and good strong drinks. Everyone is friendly and it’s so much fun. Love to dance and talk with everyone. Highly recommend. You will not be disappointed.“

“Thank you, Le Petit Paris 75, for welcoming the Richard Crook trio to your delightful club. Always a friendly atmosphere, amazing cocktails, and awesome music line ups!“

“Great place, nice and friendly and we will be back there tomorrow night 👍“

“Good service friendly bartenders“

“What an intimate special dinning experience !“

“Yeah this place rocks. Would totally 100% come back here. Bartender was incredible totally has a cool SF classic north beach bar vibe. Lots of room for everyone and a spectacular outside seating to just have a beer and watch the world go by. Come here for a wholesome local experience or for a fun dive bar vibe.

Had the ham sandwhich holy crap. For a dive bar it was kinda perfect. Bread that was toasted perfectly with a delicious jam. Come here.“

“Great asian-inspired cocktails. Good vibes and our bartender was very friendly, and did a great job recommending drinks for us. Lots of interesting flavors pairings. We stopped by before dinner on a Saturday, and it wasn't too crowded.“

“Just to be clear, this is not a “4 star restaurant”, it’s a 4star dive bar! Unassuming outside, friendly and large inside. My bro-in-law and I went there for late dinner after doing some work on his house. The kitchen was still open, with a fairly large menu; lots of burger options, a special chicken dinner and more. We sat at the bar, had some beers (Guinness on tap!) and delicious burgers with tasty sides. If you’re in the area and looking for a drink and a good meal, I say check it out. (Note: not for kids)“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The Red Jack Saloon in San Francisco is absolutely worth a visit! 🍻 The bartender was super friendly, attentive, and took great care of us. We especially enjoyed the wide selection of beers, all served perfectly cold – just the way it should be. On top of that, the cozy and well-rounded atmosphere makes you feel right at home. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“awesome drinks! great rye and drinks“

“Great food and wonderful service“

“Starting with the most important thing, the food was fantastic. I got the beef burrito and my friend got the chili and pork stew, and we both loved our meal. We agreed we'd definitely come back because of the food alone. The restaurant operated for 6 years in NYC before moving to San Anselmo, and they've obviously got some great recipes under their belt. The menu is very small, but it seems what is on there is great. The food's presentation was great, too.

The waiter was friendly and knowledgeable without being overbearing at all. The food was brought out in 10 minutes, a perfect amount of time.

Our biggest complaint was that the backless wooden seats (not the booth) were pretty uncomfortable. My friend also said her cocktail didn't have quite enough alcohol and too much ice. Additionally, the music was just a bit too loud for a restaurant. All that being said, the very open decor scheme and atmosphere felt welcoming and original compared to other restaurants... In a good way.“

“Great pub in the Montclair Village. It's a 5-star for me especially for the convenience, but I would totally recommend it to anyone looking for a great Irish-style pub. Also great for parties with a dedicated room that can be booked! Love their drinks and food“

“free pool, great music. what's not to love !“

“I wandered here on a whim looking for a quick pint before heading home - and I am exceptionally pleased.

This is a small venue, though there's space to spill into a mezzanine level. The immediate vibe was of a clean, classy, and comforting space. I would have been satisfied grabbing a sip and heading out, but the energy of the staff kept me hanging out to the edge of my time limit. I credit Alexis and Freedom for enthralling me with their mix of enthusiasm, knowledge, and attentiveness. I'm almost certain I owe them a drink or two (perhaps literally).

Although this venue does not (as of this posting) serve food, multiple meal options are within walkable distance or can be delivered. If you are respectful and keep it tidy, the staff supports your desire to eat, drink, and be merry on site.

I was looking for an easy, chill place to grab a drink, and 83 Proof was a real game changer.“

“Best bartenders & atmosphere you can ask for! HOME TO THE SF BILLS BACKERS!“

“Lovely lady serving a great pint.“

“Way to be different lol“

“Bianca IS THE BEST BARTENDER! Ask for her by name.
A few points of Bianca:
-amazing
-hot epic
Would come back just for her
The best time!
Hospital made sure to remember my drink order could not recommend more!!“

“Favorite bar in SF. Friendly bartenders and chill crowd.“

“If you want to sit on a throne in San Fran“

“The most amazing and traditional sushi near Golden Gate! I totally recommend this place!! You should come here, ask for the Nigiri Combo, you’re going to love it!!! The fish is VERY VERY FRESH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Can’t wait to come back to SF, to eat here again!!!“

“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!!!!!!“

“Joe is great. After our Uber drive dropped us in the wrong place, Joe would tell us how to get there, he took us there. It was only at the end of the block, but meant the world to us. He wouldn’t accept a tip, so went back to have a beer after dinner. He remembered our name. He is the true meaning of customer service and I’ve told all of my friends to go see him at the Showdown. Thanks again, Joe“

“Delicious! Highly recommend pickle pickle mayo dog“

“Friendly staff who are happy to give reccomendations for the area (both for food, bars etc as well as "cultural" advice).

Reasonably priced.

Nice vibe. Music, but not too loud. Cool rural on the floor you enter in.“

“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.“

“Friendly neighborhood bar with a great selection of drinks. They still had Anchor Steam, which seemed to be sold out throughout the city. The bartender, who seems to be the owner, is very friendly. When I went, they had a beer and shot special, which I had way too many. Luckily I was staying at the hotel next door and could just stumble into bed. I would go again in the future.“

“unbelievable experience, the bartender was more than friendly and I would recommend to all my friends and family“

“My significant other and I were travelling down Hyde St on the cable car and passed this wine bar. As wine lovers, we knew we had to go back! What a treat! There is a great selection of delicious dry European wines. The atmosphere is intimate and inviting. Everyone in the bar including the owner were very friendly and helpful with other great recommendations in the area. I highly recommend visiting if you are a wine enthusiast.“

“Really welcoming atmosphere for our group as we were walking around Sausalito and looking for something approachable after a long walk across the bridge. Pool tables, juke box, long bar, cheap drinks. They had some special flavored tequilas they were making some nice on-the-fly cocktails with for some in our group, and we were really happy with them.“
