Bar Auklet: Seafood and Wine in Point Reyes Station
An outing to West Marin does not have to end when you leave the trail or beach. If you want to sit down for a meal afterward, Bar Auklet offers a seafood-focused option in Point Reyes Station. Build in time to enjoy dinner rather than treating it as a hurried stop on the drive home.
What to Eat
The published menu ranges from oysters and small bites to larger grilled dishes. Examples include crab garlic noodles, clams, grilled fish, and vegetable sides, alongside some meat options. That variety lets you choose between a few shared plates and a more substantial meal. Menus are seasonal, so check the restaurant's current dining page rather than arriving set on a dish you saw in an older photo.
For a first visit, ask which dishes work well together and how much to order for your group. If you have allergies or dietary restrictions, speak with staff before choosing: seafood, sauces, and shared preparation areas make assumptions unhelpful.
Wine and Other Drinks
The drinks list includes wines by the glass and bottle, with both California and international producers represented. Beer, sake, aperitif-style drinks, and nonalcoholic options also appear on the published list. Let your food choices guide the conversation with staff instead of feeling you need to know a particular producer in advance. Plan a designated driver if you will be drinking.
Hours and Reservations
As checked November 3, 2026, the official schedule is 3 p.m. to 9 p.m. Thursday through Monday, closed Tuesday and Wednesday. The restaurant welcomes walk-ins and links to online reservations. Its stated policy is no reservation booking or changes by email, and no waitlist requests by phone. Recheck hours and availability before a special trip, especially around holidays.
Bringing a Dog
The restaurant identifies its patio as dog-friendly. Ask about available outdoor seating and any current requirements before arriving with your dog; the policy does not imply indoor pet access or a guaranteed patio table.
Make It Part of Your Day
Choose your meal time before setting out for a long coastal outing. Leave enough time to return to town, park, and settle in. Keep a warm layer handy if you hope to sit outdoors, and use the official menu and contact links for current details rather than third-party hours alone.
