Love this place ! It's not fancy but it's very comfortable and fun and you can't beat the view of the Golden Gate Bridge. Some nights they have music and there's a cover for that. We've heard a couple bands and it's usually a blast with lots of dancing Great drinks and they have a limited food menu - I've had burgers and pizza and they're both good. You have to order and pickup at the bar but it's easy. The bartender is also making the food I think, so it can be a little slow. Over all, way more laid back and fun with a better view and better value than the Cavallo point bar up the road. read more

Travis Marina Bar - Bars Near Me - Sausalito, California

Beyond rude. We came to see fireworks last night and since we had to walk down from Sausalito, we didn't bring anything with us. Starving, we found this place, stood in a long line only to be told at the front of the line by a jerk of a bartender that they are shutting down the kitchen because they can't keep up with the drink orders and cant do both. So I can't order food now? He rudely said No. Only choice was an overpriced hotdog at the downstairs family run snack bar. Truly disappointing. read more

Quick heads up: I am on the tarmac and didn't have plans of eating here. After a few minutes of setting my stuff down, I was greeted by the cook, John, who offered me some food and water. It was a slow day, and the food didn't seem all that complicated, so I accepted. Even with no staff, John cooked me a burger, gave me some chips, and handed it off to me. The couch was soft and pillows were plush. I was initially on the fence about accepting a free meal, but I am glad now that I was welcomed into such a vibrant atmosphere. The hospitality is a big plus. The crowds can get big in the evening, so I suggest making reservations ahead of time. The view of the Golden Gate Bridge is the big highlight as well as looking at the king fishers and blue herons. I wish they would add some aquariums. Would be a nice touch. read more

What a view! The last time I was here was a number of years ago. A friend suggested getting lunch and drinks here with a group of girlfriends which was a lot of fun! The lady behind the bar, I failed to get her name was very sweet and friendly. We each ordered a drink and a burger and she did it all! I ordered the regular burger and a mock tail made out of club soda and pineapple juice. The drink was recommended by the bartender and I enjoyed it. We had a great time here with fantastic views of the GG bridge and the Sausalito Marina. I am definitely going to come back more frequently for the great service and views! read more

Travis Marina Bar - View from the place. - Bars Near Me - Sausalito, California

This is a little out of the way bar that is in a public yacht club. It's not a plush place but an upstairs room with a decent bar, but the real plus is the amazing views of the Bay and the Golden Gate Bridge right in front of the club I'm not sure what the hours are. I seem to always go on weekends when it's open I'm not sure about weekdays where it could be closed? it's a great place to take out of town people to show them the views. read more

Stayed at Cavallo Point and discovered this bar on a walk. Cool little no frills bar with a few food options and drinks. Killer view and bartender was friendly. Had a few drinks but will definitely come back for live music another time. read more

Travis Marina Bar - Enjoyed a Fort Point KSA beer and Sauvignon blanc. They had mixed drinks too! - Bars Near Me - Sausalito, California

A secret gem. If you know you know. Old school club, with burgers and drinks. Live music is a regularly occurring event. This is a throw back to some good old days! read more

What an amazing hidden gem with an unbelievable view! The bar itself is definitely nothing fancy but the view more than makes up for it!

Million dollar view with the best prices around. The cheeseburger was excellent, all of the toppings fresh. Can't wait to bring more friends to enjoy. read more

Wonderful venue for hosting a private party! Brought two food trucks and hired their event team to help with clean up.

You want a dive with an amazing view?!? Go here. Go with no expectation and of anything other than dive, and you will be thrilled. If you want anything other than a very limited menu of bar food, go somewhere else first. But all s well; drinks are cheap for this area; view is amazing. read more

Old school - no frills bar with rustic ambiance and great views. Stayed at Cavallo Point and wandered down for a Guinness complete with a shamrock on top. Fun place - non-pretentious crowd. read more

Real estate investors are foaming at the mouth to get their grubby hands on this place with the killer view but it's never going to happen ... Thankfully, it's all for us regular folk to enjoy. Tips: They have a full bar and a small, casual menu (burgers & quesadillas). They take credit cards but cash tips only (and bring your cash because they're awesome and deserve it). Wishes: I wish there was a great juke box, better bands, and that it was open more often. read more

Beautiful views, bartender was attentive, and very nice. I highly recommend this place.

The location and the coolness of this second-floor bar are great...but the selection of distilled spirits and the bar tending are underwhelming. It's a shame because with some investment in the actual bar could elevate the experience of imbibing here. read more

Amazing view, food, people, and live music. Can't believe I only just found out about this little gem!

Very cool spot, view is Golden Gate Bridge on Marin County side. I absolutely love my town Sausalito, I have been living here for 15 years and it always takes my breathe away. Travis Marina Bar is a great example of a place that is soooo beautiful, you get a quick reminder of how lucky you are to live in Marin/Sausalito. I come here sometimes and because this bar is super chill, simple and has great margaritas for $6, I KNOW! Amazing! Usually we grab beer, hang outside with our dog or inside and listen to live music. To be in the bar during live music is $5 cover charge, just an fyi. Sometimes if you do arrive before live music and have been there for a while, they might ask you to come outside and reenter with $5 cover charge. I totally understand that concept but I also do support the arts of all kind. They do serve food, like chips and burgers, so it is an option, if you are hungry. I haven't really eaten there anything in 10 years, so no comment. Either than that, the spot is amazing and lovely! read more

The service was super friendly and accommodating to our large group. We were looking for food because the wait at the Bay Area Discovery Museum was about 40 minutes. We discovered a laid back place with amazing views! Will definitely go back! read more

I've only lived in the Bay Area for a few weeks so I can't really compare this to other spots around here but overall it's a decent spot if you like views. The place is not the nicest but it does have a killer view of the Golden Gate Bridge and out over the water. The drinks are fairly reasonably priced overall. Inside though, it's dark with limited seating. There is a large dance floor as apparently they have events there. I'm sure it would be fun but when I was there, it was mostly empty. It does have windows all along one side facing the Bay. Pretty much the only reason for me to come back is if I want a great view of the bridge/bay from the Marin County side and I've been over for the day and want a quick drink. I wouldn't go out of my way to go here. read more

Interesting venue. Great view, cheap drinks. Pizza was the only thing on the menu. I think it's a popular local bar but as someone visiting a little out of place. read more

I love this place. Yes, it's a dive. I love dives. People are friendly & so are the prices. Add the view & it's a win win! Cleanliness could be improved. Tips are cash only (not sure why?), so be prepared. read more

Asked for a small taste of one of the beers they had on tap and you would've thought I asked the bartender for one of his fingers. Got a small sample in a very dirty glass served with attitude. Price of a drink is decent, but it's not cheap for this dirty place. The only saving grace was the view of the Golden Gate Bridge which is stellar. Wouldn't return to the bar. Would return to the area for the view. read more

Secret and wonderful. Nothing to see here; move along - unless you know the way. Feels Like a deep woods roadside bar in the Midwest or a honky tonk joint in TX -but on the water in NoCal with salty sailors read more

Thanks to Galya T. for alerting me to the fact that the Travis Marina Bar exists. Wow! How did I not know after living in Marin for 20 years about this place? What a view! It feels like you have traveled back in time as you enter the large room and bar with sweeping views of the Golden Gate Bridge, the SF skyline, Alcatraz and more. Even the band that was setting up had a 1960 feel with 1960 hair and 1960 tude. Sat next to the window and could have sat there for hours. Only drawbacks are that despite knowing that Guinness is best at bars where the keg is changed out often, I ordered a pint of Guinness anyways as it was St. Patrick's Eve. Sure enough, the pint was slightly off. We ordered a big cheesy quesadilla that they poured half a jar of salsa on the paper plate it came on-not the best in presentation. But what the heck, with a million dollar view and cheap pricing on the food and drink, the experience is priceless. I would also recommend that you walk around Battery Yates to take in the history of the mouth of the SF Bay and capture the sweeping views. Battery Yates This battery was named in December 27,1904, in honor of Capt. George W. Yates, Seventh Cavalry killed in action by Sioux Indian on June 25 1876 at the Little Big Horn river Montana (The Custer debacle). Old gun emplacements to protect the bay-very cool! read more

How did I only just discover this bar? Is it the Bay Area's best kept secret? Maybe. My husband and I decided to explore Horseshoe Cove this past weekend and spent the better part of the afternoon walking around the waterfront and the grounds surrounding Cavallo Point Lodge. All of it was entirely lovely, but stumbling upon Travis Marina Bar was absolutely the best part. Here's why: Relaxed, divey atmosphere? Check. Sprawling views of the Golden Gate? Check. Dogs allowed? Check. Good beer on tap? Check. Centered dance floor and old piano in the corner? Check. Old, comfortable furnishings and a ceiling full of nautical flags? Check. We loved everything about this bar and can't wait to go back. read more

Friend of mine just moved to Sausalito took me to Travis Marina. Great local bar if your tourist please stay away. LOL

Dude, what a great dive bar. Picturesque views, the banquet beer and all of your grandfather's scotches. Yes. I was introduced to the Travis Marina Bar for the first time this past weekend and boy was it great! In fact, I had no idea that it even existed. If you find yourself in cavallo point or wanting a different drinking view for the day, I'd highly recommend this place. I saw a bunch of the food coming out to guests and I would say, hard pass but, that's a part of the charm. Just come here to have a couple drinks with friends, you'll be happy you did. read more

I went there on a Friday afternoon. It was a little hard to find but worth the effort. I spotted out the interesting buildings while at Vista Point and wanted to get a closer look. The bar is like going back in time. I doubt this place has ever been remodeled which was very cool. Another cool thing was getting a craft beer on draft for $5, which is amazing considering the great views of the Golden Gate Bridge! Where else can you find these prices with this view? Come here and bring a camera. read more

Travis Marina Bar - The bar is on the second floor of the building on the left. - Bars Near Me - Sausalito, California

One of my favorite bars in the Bay Area. A quick drive across the Golden Gate Bridge if you're in San Francisco. Best priced drinks ($5 for a draft beer) and killer views of the Golden Gate Bridge. I've had their pizza and it's very solid as well. Bring almost all out of town visitors here to show them a quieter side of the Bay Area and dazzle with views. read more

Friendly staff. Amazing view of the bridge. $5 draft beer. Basically a win win win. Certainly worth your time to visit.

LOVE this bar. Hands down the best view. I love sitting there with a glass of wine and looking out at the golden gate bridge. They have some nice snacks and food. Live music in the evenings on the weekend. read more

Super funky authentic and cheap drink kinda bar. Whenever we stop in at Cavalo Point we hit up Travis. It has amazing views of the GG bridge right along the water. They often have live music playing. And honestly, how can you not absolutely love finding a spot that has reasonably priced drinks, especially in the area with those kinds of views. I love this divey gem. read more

Such a special location to view the Golden Gate Bridge. Warm, cozy, and nautical feel. The assistant manager, Miguel is such a kind person! I'll definitely be coming back next time I'm in SF! read more
