Our Top Picks

Recommendation  #1
Flatiron

Yes, you can watch all the March Madness games here as well as the NBA, NFL and MLB. There’s two recently upgraded TVs over the bar and plenty more over the high tables with proper seat backs (so important once a game reaches overtime). Though the menu is deep with sandwiches, tacos, burgers, and sliders, fans flock here for the menu of wings – jerk, barbecue, buffalo, plain, plus lemon pepper and chile-basil-ginger options. Wash it all down with a Golden State cocktail or a beer from one of the 18 taps.

Don't miss Taco Night every Wednesday. Enjoy $2.50 Tacos, $6 Modelos, and $12 Coronaritas from 5pm - 10pm.

Don’t miss:  B Street Hustle Cocktail, Korean Bulgogi Fries, Steak Salad

Recommendation #2
Floodwater

Here's a place where everybody wins!

Four big screens over the bar run the length of the main dining room. Translation: everyone in the house can see the Big Game. And hear it, too, when the speakers are turned up. 

For something a little more chill, try the comfy room off to the side. There are leather couches and screens for a loungier vibe. Plus, a server who delivers plates of pork belly steamed buns, mac & cheese and pizza. The Kill Bill Margarita is Mill Valley-famous and Pliny the Elder is on one of the 12 taps. 

During March Madness, the bar will open early for the games, and there will be 1/2 priced pitchers of beers all day long! Don't forget to take advantage of their pool table and shuffleboard during halftime.

Don’t Miss: Shorty’s Tall Reuben, Sticky Ribs, Vietnamese (or Buffalo) Wings

Recommendation #3
Blazers Smokehouse & Beer Garden

It's only a year old, and this mouthwatering BBQ spot is already well-known for its chill patio vibes in the beer garden with live music on Friday and Saturday evenings. The inside has more of a pub feel with stools pulled up under a long bar and high tables. After selecting a beer, kombucha or cider from one of the 12 taps, perch on a stool to take in the game on one of the large flat-screen TVs overhead. That might mean rooting for your favorite college team during March Madness and/or watching San Marin versus Archie Williams High School. 

If you're a hungry sports fan, don't miss out on Blazers' smoked chicken nachos and Texas-style queso and chips. The bar also has a tempting happy hour every Wednesday - Friday (3pm - 6pm) featuring yummy beer & appetizer specials.

Don’t miss: Smoked brisket chili, Crispy Fried Chicken Po’ Boy, Smashburger

Recommendation #4
Lighthouse Bar & Grill

Although located at The Club at Harbor Point in Strawberry, the restaurant/bar is open to the public. The spacious room is accommodating for groups, too, with tables and lounge areas for those less interested in watching the game and a 170-inch projector screen and five flat-screen televisions for the must-watchers among us. 

Spicy chicken wings with ranch, a giant burger, and onion rings are straight-up pub fare and the sandwich list ranges from a Club to a crab and lobster melt. Stay a while and enjoy the view along with entrée-sized plates of chicken marsala or a Duroc pork chop with peppercorn sauce. And on weekends, the make sure to enjoy brunch with bottomless mimosas on their deck. 

Don’t miss: Ahi Tuna Tower, Asian Chicken Salad, Crispy Chicken Sandwich

Recommendation #5
Finnegan's Marin

On sunny days, huddle around the big-screen TV on the patio as that is where the sports-watching action is. Every other day, head inside where numerous screens are tuned to the game of the moment. Seated at the U-shaped bar? There’s screens at each end. (Don’t worry, every seat in the house can see them.) Share some Reuben rolls, The Goff Burger (sorry, Jared!) or a plate of corned beef hash and eggs. This is, after all, an Irish pub. 

If you're looking for more fun & games, Finnegan's also boasts live music every weekend and a Family Trivia Night the first Wednesday of every month.

Don’t miss: The Reuben, Fish & Chips, Irish Nachos
