About Us

 

Sailing Goat sits at the edge of Point San Pablo Harbor, a tucked-away waterfront community along the San Francisco Bay.

​

Part outdoor restaurant, part gathering place, Sailing Goat brings together seasonal coastal cooking, live music, local beer and wine, and one of the most unexpected settings in the Bay Area.

​

The harbor itself shapes the experience. Boats come and go from the marina. Music drifts across the water. Art installations rise along the shoreline. Depending on the day, you may spot goats grazing nearby or chickens wandering through the grounds.

​

Our menu reflects the coastal traditions of California, Italy, France, Spain, and other fishing communities around the world, with a focus on seasonal ingredients, thoughtful cooking, and relaxed waterfront dining.

Rooted in Point San Pablo Harbor

 

Point San Pablo Harbor has long been a place defined by resourcefulness, creativity, and connection to the water. Sailing Goat was created to reflect that same spirit: casual, welcoming, a little rustic, and deeply connected to its surroundings.

 

Though the setting is relaxed, our approach to food is thoughtful and ingredient-driven. Fish and seafood are often purchased directly from boats in the harbor, alongside locally sourced produce and carefully selected wines and beers that pair naturally with coastal-inspired cooking.

​

Whether you’re joining us for oysters and wine by the bay, a weekend brunch, sunset dinner, or live music at the harbor, Sailing Goat is designed to feel approachable, communal, and distinctly Northern California.

 

An Unexpected Corner of the Bay

 

There’s nowhere else in the Bay Area quite like Point San Pablo Harbor.

Part working marina, part artist community, part waterfront gathering place, the harbor has an atmosphere that feels more like a small coastal town than a typical Bay Area restaurant destination. There are goats and chickens. You'll see large-scale art installations. Boats, workshops, music, and community life all exist side-by-side at the water’s edge.

​

Sailing Goat was built to reflect that same spirit: unfussy, welcoming, creative, entirely unique, and deeply tied to the harbor around it.

​

For many guests, the experience feels less like visiting a restaurant and more like stumbling onto a hidden coastal outpost tucked away inside the East Bay.
