About Ernie's Tin Bar

Ernie's Tin Bar is a cozy beer bar located on a country highway in Sonoma County. The bar, although moderately dingy and cramped, offers a great selection of beer with clean taps and is noted for having one of the best beer menus in the Bay Area. While road noise can be heard from outside, the interior is often filled with lively conversation, thanks to a super friendly crowd and engaging bartenders. Despite its small size, Ernie's Tin Bar is popular and can get busy, especially with live music playing at the end of the bar. The bar has recently started staying open until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays, adding to its appeal. Notable features include porta-potties, a no cellphone policy that encourages fun conversations, and affordable beer at $1.75, which is said to be better than many others on the menu. It is a popular spot, especially on winter days when sitting next to the fireplace and grabbing a can of Olympia for 2 dollars is a favorite activity. Visitors often enjoy catching the 49er game and listening to stories about its history and culture. Overall, Ernie's Tin Bar offers a unique step-back-in-time experience and is a cool place to enjoy a cold one while surrounded by friendly faces and lively music.

Lively, fun, very knowledgeable and helpful folk on the bar, the best beer selection I know. A lot of different people who like to meet others.

Unless your a local bartender not friendly wouldn’t recommend this place to tourists. Looks fun from the exterior but cold vibe inside

Don’t use your phone at the bar!!!! iykyk
