Restaurants Within Walking Distance of the Sausalito Ferry
A wide range of Sausalito restaurants lie within just a few blocks of the ferry pier in Sausalito, almost all of them on the main north-south street called Bridgeway.
Here are some of our favorites, and there are more choices you can discover just walkign around the area. These restaurants (except for the Spinnaker) are all located on or near Bridgeway near the Ferry parking lots. Walk towards the hillside from the pier as you disembark and you'll reach Bridgeway. As you reach Bridgeway turn left to go south towards the Bay, right to go north towards the laid-back Caledonia neighborhood.
