36 Best Bars near Windsor

“Communication was very easy and pricing extremely reasonable. She was early, friendly, and very professional. Jamie (the owner) was an absolute PLEASURE to work with and went above and beyond to make sure we had a perfect bachelorette for my friend. She made signature cocktails, made sure the shots were iced, poured drinks super quick, served them pool side and just went above and beyond to make sure we had a FANTASTIC pool party! Her quantifies were on point. Her bar set up was professional and looked super cute for pictures etc. Would 100% recommend for any event, she was a joy to work with and I will definitely be using her again!“

“Awesome brew maker and wonderful variety of Belgian style beer🍺“

“Tisza is well worth the visit! I’ve tried most of the mains on the menu, and my (pescatarian) girlfriend loves the salmon latkes to death. We love supporting a local couple-owned business independent of any restaurant group. Their beer and wine are excellent, the atmosphere and service are warm and authentic, and you can’t find E. European food like this anywhere in the area. Tisza is always on my short list when out of towners ask where they should eat.“

“Very attentive staff and quick service love going there excellent quality food“

“Inventive food and the best bartenders!“

“Lovely bar Very welcoming friendly atmosphere. Very well stocked bar with a large variety of beers and drinks. Lovely spacious patio with comfortable seating. Food truck with amazing burrito 🌯. Ample parking. Friendly and efficient service. Great place to relax“

“We had a great time at the Bubble Bar. Sarah was a great hostess and has a large selection of bubbly delights. My wife (nicknamed Bubbles) loves dry bubbles, so we opted for a Spanish Cava Brut Nature (Nature meaning no residual sugar added). The Cava was delicious.

We sat outside initially, but moved inside when Sarah was visiting with some friends. Overall, nice bubbles and nice company. Thanks Sarah! We would strongly recommend a visit if you love Bubbles.“

“Cooperage Brewing dt santa rosa is one of the premium north bay breweries, any craft beer fanny MUST stop over. Wide selection of world class brews, the Curt Pilsner is a great starter. Big open space, friendly folks, you won't regret it, I promise!“

“Great service! Great Food! Will definitely be back again!“

“Really excellent experience. Great way to experience five star dining without the five star markup. Our group had the chefs choice tasting and pairing menu, 7 courses with 7 wine pairings, which was $200 per person including the wine (very reasonable considering the amount of food and drink and excellent service). This was an almost 3 hour dining experience, and every dish was locally sourced and showcased Sonoma cuisine. Our waiter Dominic was excellent, very kind and knowledgeable, and even brought us a free side of bread. Will absolutely be coming back here next time we are celebrating something.“

“If you’re looking for fine dining, craft cocktails, and a classy vibe… keep driving. But if you want a place where the jukebox might play Johnny Cash followed by Snoop Dogg, and where your bartender pours shots like they’re trying to solve world peace — welcome to The Zoo.

This bar is exactly what it sounds like: a glorious habitat for humans of all species. You’ve got the pool-table gorillas pounding out games all night, the karaoke parrots squawking “Bohemian Rhapsody” like their lives depend on it, and the mysterious nocturnal creatures in the corner who may or may not have been sitting there since the ’90s.

The drinks? Cheap enough that you question the math. The vibe? Somewhere between “your uncle’s garage” and “Vegas at 4am.” The decor? Well, let’s just say it’s a museum of questionable choices — but you wouldn’t want it any other way.

Highlights include:
• Strong pours that could tranquilize an actual zoo animal.
• Bathrooms that tell a story (not always a happy one, but definitely a story).
• A crowd so eclectic, you’ll leave with at least one new best friend and probably a conspiracy theory.

Bottom line: If Santa Rosa had a spirit animal, it would live at The Zoo, holding a Bud Light in one paw and a cue stick in the other.“

“After five hours on the road, this place greets you like a warm hug. Exceptional doormen and front desk folks us settled us in our room, Sarah at the Café made sure we wanted for nothing when it came to fresh, pleasing local fare and drink. This area is within a minutes-long Uber ride or walk to some outstanding restaurants, but if you are searching for a representative array of small plates or entrees, there’s no need to leave the premises. Enjoy!“

“I’ve gone to the Forestville club several times and I always have a good time. Last night I went and when I left, I did not feel normal. I had a couple beers, but I felt very intoxicated and very unwell the next day which does not happen to me from two beers. Ladies watch yourselves don’t leave your drink unattended and watch them pour. I didn’t leave my beer but the bartenders back is to me when he poured, that’s not gonna happen again. I’m 57 and I know what a hangover feels like, this was not that.“

“Friendly place, happy people and a great menu. Don't leave without breaking your diet with their Beignets!“

“Kudos to Jason for making this such a relaxed & enjoyable experience. I wasn't staying at the Hotel Healdsburg but I was drawn to its quiet seating area where I could chill for a bit. Once the bar was open, I availed myself of a lime-ade with black cherry ... tasty and very refreshing. Later, I ordered the grilled shrimp tacos which hit the spot.“

“Amazing food! Service was great as well. I really good happy hour! Empanadas were good, Limpia, cheesesteak slider and more.“

“Let me start with the place. I’m a billiards guy and it’s Pool table is out of this world with modern lighting. I ordered my favorite drink and as usual with me stepping in a new bar that’s my to go drink and I can tell who is who. The Mescal, the last word “closing argument”. Wow just amazing,the flyover is on point, the bartender “V” has some class yall.
Best coattail mixer I’ve encountered in a while. Danny the security was super polite and welcoming and had a super positive attitude. Love this place 10 of 10“

“Everyone searches for their go to dive, their Cheers.. the place that’s open early and open late, has 5 star bartenders with one star humor but you love it… the place you can depend on, that feels safe, that feels welcoming. This is the ‘40.“

“The lady that runs this place is great :) She always makes you feel at home. It’s really dark inside and i like it that way. Mixed crowd that all get along just fine. The drinks are really reasonably priced. The BEST jukebox around. It has everything new and old. There is an old Star Wars pinball machine, a couple of pool tables, a shuffleboard? game, a small train that makes its rounds above your head for only 25 cents, and surprisingly nice restrooms. I love it here. It is my favorite local watering hole. When i drink a little too much, get a little loud and rowdy, or start making out with my girlfriends, they don’t even mind. Definitely my kind of place.“

“Agave Mexican Restaurant has the best, most delicious dishes north of Marin. Delicious authentic homemade Mexican dishes. The best Mole sauce with almonds, herbs, chocolates, the best Mole sauce in the United States of America.“

“Delicious dinner! We had great cocktails and many small plates. The crispy Brussels sprouts are to die for. The pork belly bites wearn't my favorite. Everything a little pricy but it's healdsburg - boujee now! I think it's great for a fun date night, drinks with a large group or the girls“

“Absolutely fantastic experience at Beer Baron Bar & Kitchen! The food was delicious, the drinks were top-notch, and the atmosphere was lively and welcoming. Every dish was flavorful and well-prepared, and the staff went above and beyond to provide friendly, attentive service. Whether you're stopping by for a casual meal, happy hour, or a night out with friends, this place delivers on every level. Great selection of beers and cocktails, excellent food, and an all-around amazing vibe. Highly recommend — definitely a 5-star spot!“

“Agree with other commentators, good prices and good pours and pretty good vibe. People bring food in and it's free on like Football Sundays. Really good. There's a little bit of a local uppitiness (so many people know each other) that can be a little off putting. For example, bartender won't look at you for an order when a "local " just walked in.“

“Absolutely awesome place!!!“

“All the staff were very attentive and friendly. The wine selection is very nice. We had escargo, Coquille St Jacques, pear endive salad, beef cheeks bourguignon, bread, and butter. For dessert, I had pear tarte tatin with ice cream. Everything was prepared very well and was delicious.“

“Incredibly fresh raw oysters. The view is amazing. The wait staff is kind & attentive. The manager really cares about his customers. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“As a Human Resource Regional Manager I wish more businesses were like this. Outstanding staff and Outstanding food and drinks. I’m a math major so I rate my experience at Stark’s Steak & Seafood, a 3.14 out of 3.14. I look forward to going to Stark’s again. I wish everywhere was like Stark’s. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Stark’s sets the example for others in the field. Ladies and gentlemen take notes. This is how you conduct a successful business. - Pierce“

“great food and great service 👍“

“Stopped in while visiting Healdsburg for the Jordan Winery Halloween party and had an awesome time. Classic dive bar vibe with friendly staff and a laid-back crowd. Drinks were great, service was quick, and everyone made us feel welcome. The best part, I accidentally left my credit card behind, and they went out of their way to mail it back to me. That kind of customer service is rare these days. Highly recommend this spot if you’re in town!“

“Love this place and food , but I don’t like handed a machine while server is standing there and I need to see if bill is correct and what their tip will be Set the final bill down and give me time . Today they were busy at lunch , so not the fastest service. Great food.“

“Healdsburg, worst kept secret. Best BBQ place in plain sight! It gets very busy over the weekends, but the table is always available without the wait. Staff are very friendly and attentive. Excellent service.“

“Shout out to Chris the manager who went out of his way to accommodate us. We are Hyatt members and thought we could use our club access awards. Unfortunately this particular restaurant is its own identity and therefore they don’t allow you to use the awards. Chris however made an exception and allowed us to use them. It was a very busy day with a bit of a wait but we were really taken care of in an amazing way. Thank you!“

“Cozy space with nicely appointed ambiance. Friendly staff. Excellent food on a varied and adventurous menu. The cheese curds are worth the trek. Great cocktails. Good happy hour menu. Lovey outside patio and well behaved dogs are welcome.“

“The pork belly skewers are delicious. And they label directly on the menu what is gluten free son/or vegetarian.“

“Beautiful setting, and food that doesn't disappoint. The goat cheese croquettes are delicious, and the halibut was expertly prepared and beautifully balanced with leaks, zsquash, and a savory sauce. Full bar with innovative cocktails. Well curated, but small wine list.“
