15 Best Bars in Antioch

“Since its transformation into Taylor’s on Toft, this bar has established itself as one of Antioch’s most polished and welcoming drinking destinations. The owner—often found behind the bar—sets the tone with a warm, personable presence that immediately makes guests feel at ease. Her cocktail craftsmanship is equally impressive: the Manhattan is exemplary, balanced and precise, while the martinis are consistently excellent, executed with confidence and restraint. The ambiance strikes an ideal note—refined yet relaxed—making it a natural choice for a pre-dinner aperitif or a lingering post-meal nightcap. During a recent visit, a live singing group added a festive touch, infusing the space with genuine Christmas cheer without overwhelming the intimate atmosphere. While we have not yet sampled the food, dishes arriving at neighboring tables are beautifully presented and look enticing, suggesting the bar program is thoughtfully complemented by the kitchen. Taylor’s on Toft is a standout in Antioch: a place defined by gracious hospitality, expertly made cocktails, and an atmosphere that invites return visits. Highly recommended.“

“Last weekend was our first time at this fun-loving bar on the water. We went to hear the band Crooked Fences because we have a friend in the band. They serve up bar food - burgers, cheese curds, etc. - and, of course, drinks in a fun atmosphere on the water. There are garage door that open to the dock, so it gives a outdoor vibe. They also have a ferry to Blarney Island that leaves from the bar for $15 round trip. The wait staff is friendly and attentive. A good place for a casual afternoon or evening by the water.“

“Came for Christmas in July. When we arrived, it wasn’t Christmas at all. Lack of decorations, no Santa, no gifts, no grinch. A little annoyed because they advertised it very well but never put an end time. Apparently my family arrived right after Santa and the grinch left. Wish they would have put an end time, enjoyed it a lot last year with the family. Disappointing this year. On the other hand, band and drinks were good per-usual. Usually don’t have any other issues when we come here. Overall a good vibe.“
