The Experience:

Kick back at the Harbor!

If you have not ventured down to Sailing Goat bayside destination restaurant yet, you are missing out! Experience coastal cuisine, fine wine and local beer, sunset views and live music at Point San Pablo Harbor.

They’re serving brunch, lunch & dinner all weekend. Roll out to the Harbor and they’ll feed you right.

Dining bayside never tasted so good! Check out their updated menu. And as always, the Fish & Chips are the classic go-to for some of us!

Here are some culinary delights you will find:

  • Smoked Paprika Almonds
  • Brandade – local rockfish, onion, potatoes, garlic, cream, crostini (GFO)

Plus, Entrees and Sweets, local wine & craft beer. Excellent service.

It’s peaceful looking out over the water and walking down through the marina checking out the vibrantly painted houseboats. By the time you leave, you feel like you have been in a different world, far away from your usual day

Weekend hours: Fri, 11am – 7pm; Sat/Sun, 11am – 7pm

What to expect:

On the water at Pt San Pablo Harbor, a bayside escape to nourish the body and feed the soul awaits. Down at the harbor, you’ll relax with wonderful vistas and the gentle lapping of water. Items from the sea and land and gardens guide the menu. Pizza is baked outside in a wood-fired pizza oven. And, they are serving up regional small batch craft beer and wines.

There are pathways along the water and houseboats, hiking paths up the hill with fantastic views. So many options for you, your family and friends when you visit the Sailing Goat!
