    Great Notion Jammy Pants sour & Pond Farm Wrong Side of the Bed coffee stout
    Kristine K.

    I am a regular at their beautiful outdoor area, which I love on a sunny day or a cool night with the fire pits. They have a wide selection of local beers and ciders (Ghost Town, Humble Sea, Old Caz, Pond Farm, Standard Deviant, Great Notion, Far West), delicious pizza, and lots of salad options. Service is quick & easy with the QR code, although when I come with some of my older friends they would like to have a paper menu to look at. Today was a less enjoyable experience as it was too windy to sit outside, so we sat inside where the acoustics were deafening with screaming toddlers and adults shouting over them. My group of 4 adults quickly finished our drinks after struggling through trying to talk through the chaotic cacophony. Highly recommend the outdoor area, but not the indoor area when it's crowded.

    Outdoor beer garden by the bay, can be sunny but with some cool bay wind. Lots of seating, easily order beers, non alcoholic drinks from the table using a QR Code. Easy access to water jars. Lots of outdoor seating and some indoor seatings. There's a wooden play area. Overall nice place, ambience, busy but helpful staff. Clean bathroom. Parking is available but can be a bit tough.

    The Junction in Mill Valley is a community space with social activities and events. Parking can be tricky, but be patient. There are lots along the way (look for spots near in dirt lots at the Junction or next to the pottery store. There are events like bingo and music, a playground, fire pits, and best of all - pizza and beer. Service is quick and very efficient. Scan the QR code on the table or grab a drink at the bar/window. You'll have a great time!

    kale pie

    Cute spot for a lunch in an outdoor space! Very family (and dog) friendly. Saw lots of bikers here so must be a popular spot after a bike ride! We got a kale pizza to share and it was good! I liked the sausage and the chewiness of the crust. The outdoor space is awesome -- it feels super relaxed and the vibe is great. Service is pretty minimal (water is self serve and you order on via QR code on the table) but the pizza came out pretty fast.

    Shroomer pizza was absolutely amazing. The pesto sauce made this pie!  First time here. Loved every minute of this visit.

    The Shroomer pizza was absolutely amazing. The pesto sauce made this pie. Very cool, laid back atmosphere. Next time we find ourselves in Mill Valley, we'll definitely come here for another visit.

    Great spot to hang with family and friends

    This was the perfect place for our entire family to get together. It was about a 20 minute drive from where we are in Berkley and very simple. Once you get off the Freeway you make your way over to their very large outdoor parking lot along the side and behind The Junction. The entrance come up quickly so be ready, especially at night. First we fed the kids Pizza then as they ran off to their play area in the Junction, we ordered many different types of pizza, We had this along with delicious craft beer. There is a huge outdoor open space with benches, nice lighting and heaters. The play structure for kids was terrific and they really enjoyed alll being together. There is a huge outdoor open space with benches, nice lighting and heaters. It was the perfect place for us all to be at while the kids were playing. Overall, this is a wonderful spot to have a family gathering. KUDOs to the team at The Junction.

    Shroomer pizza
    Brenna T.

    We stopped here for a bite showing a visiting family member around the area. We ordered a few different pizzas (the shroomer, the Ohio, and a classic cheese), when we arrived it was a bit of a madhouse but people were having a good time. We ordered our pizza with some drinks from the QR codes provided on the table, after a bit of a wait (which obviously going to be a wait they are making fresh pizzas and it was extremely busy) our drinks and then shortly after food arrived. The pizzas were delicious, the mushroom pizza being my ultimate favorite from here. The restaurant itself is really cool there is indoor and amazing outdoor seating (if the weather isn't too chilly) inside can get a bit crazy and loud but overall a it's a decent stop for some pizza and a beer.

    Firepit
    Clarence A.

    Several choices on tap and they have several options for pizza as well, only came here for the beer and the ambiance We chose a spot in the corner by the fire pit, sampled their 7% dry cider for next time I will have to pass. Sample few other drinks but the beer with mango and peach hit my sweet tooth I will definitely have to come back and grab a liter of this stuff Sat by the fire with some close friends and chatted for bout an hour or more then headed to our next spot, asked the staff to turn on the firepit and enjoyed the warmth as well as the conversations with old friends You can bring your kids here and there was seating brightly lit inside as well I will have to come back for that mango peach beer and sample more of their offerings and maybe a pizza to share with the kids Drinks **** Price $$ Service **** helpful Ambiance **** clean, roomy, open, bright inside, heater and firepit outside

    Huge beer garden with plenty of seating. Family friendly and dog friendly. Great selection of craft beers! They even have some special collabs on the menu. Parking can be tough on a busy weekend. Their lot is in back. Food was also very good! We ordered a half and half pizza and the kale salad. Would definitely return!

    BYOU, being your own umbrella! We came on a warm June day and there was almost 0 shade. The food was amazing, the beer list was great, and the breeze was refreshing, but the sun and temps were brutal! It was a super kid-friendly spot with a cute playground for the kids! My toddler loved the pizza, and we did too! The benches were a bit dated and wobbly. I almost fell twice which was concerning but I learned to avoid the wobble quickly! Overall a great spot but wish they would add a few sun sails. The sun was not pleasant.

    So everyone's pizza looked excellent but mine was burnt. Not the best pizza. They have lots of outdoor seating but if you want to custom your pizza you have to go up and order it with a table number which really didn't work out because by the time you go to your table your seat is taken.

    Are all music shows outdoors? The website makes absolutely no mention of it. There is also a large side room that would be large enough for some shows so not sure if some are there. It would be nice to know, to dress appropriately for cooler weather.

    Do they have gluten free pizza?

    Yes! They have these really delicious square gluten free pizzas. They do run out some times though, but you can always call ahead and ask.

    Is it pet friendly?

    Yes they allow dogs

    Are kids allowed in?

    Yes!

    How long is a usual wait on a nice Saturday night for dinner?

    When will you have gluten free pizza?

    Liz and Dez (owners of the beer garden portion of the Junction) said that the pizza maker indicated that a gluten free option will be available in 4 - 6 weeks.

This is a hip area with surfing lessons, coffee shops and of course Hook Fish. I came here with a group, after a hike at the Tennessee Valley Trail (a beautiful hike to a beach, probably 1-2 miles away). At Hook Fish, you find a table, get in line and order your food with your table number. They bring it over (quickly!) and you get to people watch for your troubles. The dishes were a heavy mouthful, but delectable as expected. It feels East Coast West Coast to me in nature, but all pure goodness. The fried fish I had was crispy and tender, and the nachos and poke were fresh and crunchy chipped. We left with tight belts. I'd plan ahead or come prepared to hunt for parking, but it was a fun stop otherwise, especially for a friendly gathering with some solid grub.

It was busy and lively (but not overly busy), and we enjoyed sitting outside on the large patio. In general, everyone enjoyed their food. I ordered the poke plate, my boyfriend ordered the two piece fish and chips, and we shared a half dozen oysters. The oysters tasted great (I thought they were briney and complemented well with hot sauce) but were small and probably not worth $4 per. I loved the flavor of the poke and the plate was a generous serving size. My boyfriend liked the crispiness and freshness of the fish and chips, but said there wasn't anything particularly special or standout. Our friends ordered various versions of the tacos and liked them, but they looked difficult to eat (small taco tortillas with heaping toppings!). There isn't much to mention for service since this restaurant does a line order, but it was interesting that waiters consistently tried to drop off the wrong food to our table. Otherwise, our actual food came out relatively quickly despite the lunch rush. I wouldn't go out of my way for the menu here, but it's a great stop for people biking through town or heading up north from the city!
