Barrel House offers a unique farm to table experience in downtown Sausalito which celebrates local seasonal ingredients and sustainability in a beautiful setting.

Barrel House focuses on letting the ingredients shine. To this end, Barrel House supports local farmers and organic practices due to their amazing quality as well as being harvested at their peak of ripeness.

Barrel House will feature barrel aged and classic cocktails. Its wine menu highlights California winemakers. Barrel House will have rotating local micro brews on tap as well as wines on tap. Additionally, we will be hand crafting our own sodas with seasonal fruits.
Barrel House features furniture and woodwork that was handcrafted using reclaimed black walnut and curly maple trees. Every seat in the Barrel House has sweeping views of the Bay and an outdoor deck that sits right over the water.

    Great views and food was delicious but expensive. Was crowded and service fairly slow. Took 30 minutes before drink order arrived, but wait staff was friendly.

    The service was fantastic! I could go on and on about how excellent our waitress, Tatiana, was, and how fast and professional the other staff were! They worked really well together and it was as pleasure to see. The views were great! The food was okay. It lacked seasoning, so it was pretty meh and bland, although beautifully presented and cooked well. For example, my braised short ribs were ABSOLUTELY tender, but there was hardly a particle of salt in them, so the flavor of the meat was absent. (The sweet potato fries were spot on though!)

    The location and ambiance are lovely, and the service was good. We had the clam chowder which was essentially a thin clam broth rather than a hearty chowder with potatoes and vegetables. The steak sandwich was also bland and underwhelming.

    This was our first time trying Barrel House and we made a reservation for 3pm on a Sunday. A beautiful calm clear day and the view on the deck was just gorgeous! The food was surprisingly good for a spot like this and honestly priced pretty well considering it’s in a tourist spot on the water. We loved it and our server was lovely too. We had the clam linguini and the salmon. I recommend both!

    Great food but the service was terrible. Very kind and respectful but we waited an hour and a half for our dessert. People next to us had the same experience.
