Bay views, comfort fare, bocce court & mini-golf

























"Treasure Island is still technically part of San Francisco — in fact, it offers the best views of the city from halfway across the Bay Bridge. Mersea is a restaurant built into an old shipping container, and the cafe serves seaside mainstays like fish and chips, haddock chowder, and comforting burgers like the Island Double Decker with cheddar, pickles, iceberg lettuce, and a secret sauce. Takeout is available, but why do that when you can enjoy the scenery?" - Paolo Bicchieri

"Mersea on Yerba Buena/Treasure Island rewarded us with panoramic city and bridge views and a small seafood feast: a daily bay shrimp roll in a fluffy toasted bun and fan-favorite fish n’ chips featuring a perfectly salted, thick, crispy batter around flaky haddock, served with curried tartare and Old Bay fries—ideal for waterfront brunches and sunset happy hours." - Eater Staff
"Offering bocce ball, vast open space for frolicking, and front-row views of the bay and city skyline, Mersea represents the ideal spot for whiling away a weekend afternoon with kids in tow. The menu embraces its Treasure Island location, with chowder and fish tacos mingling with burgers, pizza, and daily chef specials — and soft-serve ice cream or a classic Rice Krispy treat is always the move for kiddos. Wine, beer, and a sunny lineup of house takes on classic cocktails, including a few, oversized shareable spritzes, give the hard sell on Mersea’s appeal." - Laura Smith Borrman

"If I can make it over to Treasure Island, Mersea is a casual spot to grab a bite and a cocktail outdoors or inside, and it treats me to views of the San Francisco skyline from a different vantage point while the jets fly by." - Dianne de Guzman
"Escape across the bridge to Mersea, where a $30 lunch deal also buys you some pretty incredible views of the city." - Lauren Saria
