What is the Best Singles Bar (or Restaurant & Bar) to Meet People in Sausalito?
Even in this age of computer dating and social networks it isn’t easy for singles to meet new people “in the real world instead of online.” Especially if you’re looking to date someone who doesn’t work with you and who lives nearby.
Here’s our editors’ list of the restaurants and bars that we think offer the best opportunities for singles to meet new people in Sausalito. In this Top Ten we’re disregarding the quality of the cuisine in the restaurants listed (although it’s often excellent), and only rating the social potential of the place.
We argued about this list a lot, but the #1 position in this list was easy to determine. Seahorse has more organized dance events, dance lessons and other social activities than any other restaurant in town. Each of the places below has a different vibe, so experiment to find what fits your personality.
| Rank | Name | Comments |
| 1 | Seahorse | Dance lessons & scheduled events |
| 2 | No Name Bar | Nightly music |
| 3 | Osteria Divino | Music most nights |
| 4 | Bar Bocce | Back patio bayside activities |
| 5 | Fred’s Coffee Shop | Busy place, can share large tables |
| 6 | Saylor’s | Long-time diverse local crowd |
| 7T | Taste of Rome | Coffee, some music |
| 7T | Equator Coffee | Coffee Shop |
| 7T | Firehouse Coffee | Coffee Shop |
| 10 | Poggio | Classy bar & clientele |
| 11 | Farley Bar | Sophisticated crowd, but many out-of-town |
Also Recommended for singles by our Editors and Readers: Buckeye Roadhouse‘s bar, Barrel House’s Bar, Trident’s bar, Salito’s Crab House bar, Smitty’s Bar (for locals). In Muir Beach, the Pelican Inn bar is a great spot.
Note: We only cover restaurants and bars here, but the Sausalito Parks and Rec Department has many programs that are also ideal places for singles to meet. The Sausalito Library also holds classes and events. You can also join local volunteer organizations like the Sausalito Historical Society and the Sausalito Art Festival, which are wonderful places to meet people who share your interests.
Don’t see a name you remember? Like Zack’s, the undisputed king of singles places in Sausalito in our youth (or at least mine!), it may be on our List of Restaurants That Have Closed or Changed Their Names.
