"This sprawling beer garden is always high on the list for casual, festive meals with friends. You’ll listen to live acoustic, roots, and indie rock (depending on the night) as you pass appetizers around one of the many reclaimed wood tables in the glass-covered patio. We love the pickle fries, the warm pretzel with beer cheese, and Korean gochujang cauliflower. The cheeseburger is loaded with crispy shallots (never skip the sweet potato waffle fries on the side), and the ahi tuna salad is a lighter but still satisfying option, and everything is better with one (or three) of their many excellent pints, brewed at their Sebastopol location. We also like to use this place for low-key date nights or post-wine tasting wind-downs." - Gabi Moskowitz
