23 Best Bars near Martinez

“We went on a Saturday and it wasn't as busy as we thought it would be. It's conveniently located next to Walmart which has everything. The beer was good. The pool tables were nicely spaced out with good vibes all around. The lower level area is very chill and relaxed. I liked everything about this place and enjoyed playing my game. Security was friendly.“

“Karaoke here could be the it place if more people would come, it is already busy but I think more would make it that much better! I like singing karaoke on thursdays, I like the variety of ages of people that come in here. I even like the bartenders. However, I am not getting drunk in there because I am on a sabbatical from drinking, I order a Cola. So, I have no idea how they treat a newbie that gets wasted. So do not take anything I say and think this place is where you can go to actually have a good time, because I do not know that. I never stay late to even see if people get drunk there. What I do know is it is lively yet chill place with a support of people that are pretty friendly.“

“It’s where I send everybody who hasn’t eaten there. Darlene is one of the waitresses. She is wonderful. The food is out of this world fresh organic drinks very good. Been there many times going back tomorrow with people who’ve never eaten there.“

“Six-Eleven is a fantastic addition to the Martinez dining scene! From the moment you step in, you’re greeted by a warm, inviting atmosphere and a staff that truly goes above and beyond.
The food here is simply incredible. I highly recommend the Braised Short Rib Pappardelle - it’s a flavor explosion that will leave you wanting more. The Market Greens Salad with Grilled Salmon is another standout, perfectly balancing fresh greens with succulent fish.
But save room for dessert! Their dessert menu is to die for. The Mixed Berry Tart is a delightful burst of fruity goodness, while the Banana Bread Pudding and Tiramisu are pure indulgence. It’s hard to choose a favorite!
What really sets Six-Eleven apart is their exceptional staff. Cory, the bar manager, is a master mixologist who can whip up any drink you desire. Sarah, Andrew, Jamaica, Jewel, Clair, Clara, Lindsay, Brittany, and Matt are all incredibly friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable. Honestly, everyone here is fantastic and contributes to making your dining experience memorable.
The restaurant offers a great ambiance with both indoor and outdoor seating options, and there’s even live music on some nights. Parking is a breeze, with metered spots that are free on weekends.
Six-Eleven is still relatively new, so there might be a slight wait for food during busy times, but trust me, it’s worth it. They’re constantly working on improvements, and their commitment to quality is evident in every aspect of the restaurant.
Whether you’re looking for a romantic dinner, a night out with friends, or a new favorite spot for great food and drinks, Six-Eleven delivers on all fronts. I can’t wait to come back and try more items from their menu!“

“The General Chicken 左宗雞 had several stand-out qualities. First, the sauce used to stir-fry the chicken was rich, flavorful, and balanced—both tangy and sweet with just the right amount of heat. The portion size was generous, with plenty of chicken to go around, which I appreciated. Another plus was the way the broccoli was incorporated. There weren't too many pieces, and they were the same size as the chicken, making it easy and pleasant to eat together.

That said, the chicken lost its crispiness due to the steam inside the takeout container. By the time I dug in, the once-crispy coating had become soft and was falling off the chicken, which was a bit of a letdown.

I also ordered the Shrimp Fried Rice 蝦炒飯 , and while the flavor was absolutely fantastic, I did encounter a minor issue with the shrimp. A couple of them still had their digestive tracts intact, which I had to remove before eating. Although it's a small detail, it detracted from the otherwise great experience.“

“What a great find on a quick work trip to Benecia! I wish there were more stars to give!

Baxter’s has a welcoming vibe when you first walk in, and it gets even better after you meet some of the team! My server, Michelle, absolutely made the evening for me! She had some great menu suggestions and top-notch service and was great to chat with! Kenneth also made sure that everything tasted great, and I was enjoying my visit! Hats off to the Chef and her ability to create some unique dishes!

I appreciated the menu, which has a little bit of everything. I instantly got that feeling that I was in for a treat. To kick things off, I went with the Baked Brie En Croute, which was outstanding! My main entree was a tough choice, though. There was a special, Gumbo Pasta, which I had never encountered before and piqued my interest. Let me tell you, this special should be on the menu, and if it is available when you stop in, it's a must!

I was torn about dessert, but I went with the New Orleans Bread Pudding at Michelle's suggestion! I'm sure all the desserts are fantastic, but this one has got to be at the top of the list!

All in all, if you can swing by Baxter’s, don't pass it up! Well worth it!“

“Great spot for a drink or a quick bite! On some days there is live music and the people-watching never disappoints!

Vegetarian options: Not Vegan or necessarily vegetarian friendly.

Parking: Parking is generally easy. There are plenty of side streets when the main street is full. There are no parking meters in this town ?“

“You have to go at least once. I like the staff and the bar is close to the water with good outdoor seating available. They have bar food but have a good dinner as well. During the warmer months, they had outdoor music on Sunday's, but the owner was talking about getting some full-time entrainment at some point.

Parking: Parking can be tough at times

Kid-friendliness: Kids are allowed, just not at the bar.“

Unique tappings that are changed out regularly and if there isn't anything on tap there are hundreds of delicious bottles to choose from. The bartenders are very friendly and knowledgeable. Also, it is dog friendly inside. We come here multiple times per month.“

“Great selection of beers and wine. I've been back 2 times(many times now) and have had a great time each visit. Nice place to watch sports. The bartenders are all nice, friendly and attentive.I still need to explore the food menu. To be continued...Part 2: the food is amazing for bar food and the menu has many different types to choose from; Burgers, wings, lumpia, wraps, and much more. They offer many different dipping sauces. And some are uniquely made in house.They also offer free wi fi ???Update to review: The food has gotten even better! You will find a full menu with about 50 items and specials every night to keep things new. Every thing I've ordered has been almost gourmet level and delicious. The ownership is doing a superb job on the menu and food preparation.“

“Very beautiful atmosphere lovely people! Pool table for tournaments and fun, cards as well. Serves wine and beer, smoking outside with seating, also bar cat comes around here and there and I think it's the best. Will most definitely come more often! I give this place five stars.“

“Nice place to hang out and watch some live music. Was there to play the club with my band Midnight Sinfini. The sound system wasn't high tech so the sound could have been better but was a really fun place to play a show. I would consider playing here again.“

“Montecatini in Walnut Creek is one of those old-school Italian spots that never disappoints. The ambiance has a “Goodfellas” vibe—classic, cozy, and full of character, with a timeless feel that makes you feel like you’re stepping into a traditional Italian trattoria. The food here is outstanding, with rich flavors and great attention to detail.

Their specials are always worth trying, especially the swordfish and duck—both are standouts that showcase the restaurant’s commitment to quality. The portions are generous, and every dish feels like a true labor of love. Whether you’re a regular or a first-timer, Montecatini is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates authentic, delicious Italian food in a warm, inviting atmosphere.“

“Club Tac in Crockett, CA, is a hidden gem that pleasantly surprises with its eclectic atmosphere. The unpredictable charm keeps you on your toes, and the friendly service adds a welcoming touch. Don't miss the chance to indulge in the delicious Italian sausage sandwich – a must-try that leaves a lasting impression. The pool table adds to the entertainment, so be sure to bring some extra dollars for a game or two. Christina, the talented cook and owner, is the mastermind behind the crispiest fries you'll ever taste. If you find yourself in the quaint town of Crockett, a visit to Club Tac is a culinary adventure waiting to happen.“
