Welcome to California Gold, from exotic lands the Clipper sailed in through the Golden Gate, Straight with a look to the West.

Over fog capped hills all glittering in gold, the Beer is always fresh, the Mezcal warm, and the Daiquiris reign supreme!

Well, Marin… you made our day. 🖤

We’re incredibly proud to have been voted Best Cocktails, Best Craft Beer Selection and Best Happy Hour in the Pacific Sun’s Best of Marin 2026.

And this one is especially sweet — Luke Manzano is officially Marin’s Best Bartender. 🏆 *LUK1E*

Lukie joins Christian, Manny and Isaac as Best Bartender winners behind the California Gold bar. That’s some pretty damn good company — and something we’re incredibly proud of. Christian Clark Manuel Romero Isaac Shumway. Ethan Batch Josh Batch
