This is one of our favorite places to eat in the area. Everything on the menu is delicious. Very casual, think sandwiches, fish tacos, chowder, lots of oysters. Mostly all outdoor seating. Try to check it out if you can! There tends to be a line but it is worth the wait.
Tomales Bay is the home of Hog Island's oyster farm. You need to make a reservation on the weekend so recommend booking asap if you plan to go. Really nice outdoor "cafe." It can get pretty windy FYI so bring a jacket. They have a pretty limited menu so we'd recommend going for a drink, apps, and some oysters.
Owned by Hog Island so you know the food is good. They have a more robust menu than Hog Island. Indoor/outdoor seating. Great bloody mary! They take reservations but not required.
They are known for great pastries and pizza at lunch. It's a very casual place with a few outdoor tables. Good option if you are heading up to Dillion Beach.
Nice spot in Pt. Reyes to go to for good pizza and a beer. Casual indoor/outdoor seating.
Casual outdoor spot in Pt Reyes. Some lunch and brunch options. Opens at 11am on weekends.
A good spot for more traditional brunch in Pt Reyes (about 15 drive from the Marconi). They also offer dinner if you are looking for something a little nicer/not seafood. All indoor seating.
They open at 8am so it's a good option for an earlier, casual breakfast.
This is a fun place to go if you’ve never tried mead or love it. They specialize in sparkling mead (honey wine). You can bring food and have a picnic with your tasting.
There are a ton of awesome trails and beach walks in the area. Check out All Trails for recs. We've only done dog friendly ones but enjoyed Tamales Bay Trailhead, Kehoe Beach Trailhead and Point Reyes Beach.
For our real oyster lovers, Hog Island offers a farm tour at 9:30am on Saturdays. Reservations open 30 days in advance.
Head over to Pt. Reyes for a bite and check out the rest of the town. It's basically only one block but they have a few cute shops, a cool record store Loose Joints, the Old Western Saloon (cash only), a farmers market, and a couple bakeries. The lighthouse is 40 minutes from downtown Pt. Reyes FYI.
Look for an appointment for the Cheese Lovers Tasting or you can just visit the shop.
Dillion Beach is a great option for a beach day or beach walk. Stop by Route One Bakery on the way or eat at Coastal Kitchen in Dillion Beach.
Nick's Cove is one of our favorite spots to eat and is close to the Marconi. Unfortunately they have a private event so are closed to the public on Friday and Saturday of our wedding weekend. Check them out if you are in town earlier or they should be open on the Sunday after the wedding!
