We were ready for a drive to Stinson Beach on a beautiful sunny Sunday. We decided to stop at the…read moreParkside because it was close walking distance to the beach. We chose to sit outside with umbrellas, picnic tables and benches. I ordered the HASH breakfast with scrambled eggs and my fellow traveler ordered mussels. We were both surprised how good both orders were! The hash was a mixture of grilled chicken and root vegetables Cooke just right and topped with pesto sauce. The scrambled eggs and outstanding toast were served on the side. Yum! I enjoyed every bite and was really more than I usually eat at midday. The mussels were in a creamy tomato based sauce...spicy and delicious with grilled bread for dipping as the mussels began to disappear and the sauce revealed. It was a nice surprise to later walk the beach with full stomachs and appreciate the incredible views on a sunny day along the Marin coast!

They looked good but $8 for a slice of cold pizza, that's probably been sitting all day, doesn't sound too appetizing. Ambience is nice and beachy , since it's right outside Stinson Beach. They also had pastries that looked good but we just got coffee here. Coffee was good.

Considering the location we're in it's a little surprising that the owners are not more environmentally conscious. The bins are filled with used plastic and boxes. So get some plates, glasses and cutlery and a dishwasher and maybe I'll come back.

Incredibly expensive for the value that you get…read more At first glance at the menu, I thought, "Wow, these prices are through the roof!" After ordering, I foolishly expected the food to be of high quality, which would be the only reasonable excuse for their price. My table received our food, and it looked okay. My fries looked (and tasted) like McDonald's french fries. The fish sandwich tasted heavily of store-bought guac, and the fish lacked overall taste. Even if the prices were different, I probably would not return to this cafe. The sandwich was the most disappointing part of my experience. I would love if something different was done for the sauce / guac that could pair better with the arugula and fish.

Epic decision. We bought juicy kumquats, a pear, a tangerine, a small tub of fresh hummus, gluten-free tortillas, and a wondrous bag of heavenly granola. The total for all said purchases, wasn't bad at all, considering we both were full in a matter of minutes. Scooping lightly sweetened dreamy granola into our mouths, in between spooning hummus onto amazing light tortillas was the perfect meal. Our feet dangling above large rocks, grazed lightly by the lapping Bolinas water - was a sensational start to the adventure filled day. Trust.

Our lattes were nothing to write home about, but there are limited options in Bolinas, so it gets the job done. THE BRAN MUFFIN, HOWEVER... Sorry to everyone who has never tried this. I'm still thinking about it weeks later. They're made in house and they do sell out, so grab it if you see it! The walnuts added a nice crunch. The skirt on the muffin is fabulous. The sugar is nicely crystalized, which adds another fun textural component. Never thought I'd speak so highly of a bran muffin tbh...

I took a star off because I really think the fish dish could've been flavored better.

Other than that, a really great experience!

The bakery was decently busy with locals going in and out. I ordered the Resurrection Morning Bun, which had an almond and citrusy flavor. It was a delicious morning treat that wasn't too sweet and made for a filling breakfast. All in all, Madrona Bakery is a good option to grab pastries and coffee if you're planning to be in the area.

Locals with their dogs walk here, and mingle with the out-of-towners, hikers, and bicyclists who all enjoy a quality cup of coffee or other drink, paired with fancy pastries or select lunch items. Their seasonal drink menu is always worth a try; turmeric or matcha or cacao are always a good match with the Equator-roasted beans, purchased and shipped direct from sustainable and family farms. There is select seating inside, additional benches outside, and an abundance of seating across the street at the Depot, where summer music festivals and farmers market booths are known to occasion. Arrive for the delicious coffee, stay for the chill vibes. ‍

I'm going to try to find the right words...I told a friend on the phone, lets say that…read moreyou put an HVAC salesman in front of a stove with a recipe and asked him to make you breakfast...that's what it seemed like they did today. My "Soft Scramble" was a pile of astonishment. It was so unrefined that it was an insult the the ingredients. There was nothing soft about the eggs, they were overcooked. The only thing soft on the plate was the watery run-off from the vegetables they heaped into the eggs: Too many chewy mushrooms and HUGE. Too many cherry tomatoes. I had to dig to find the eggs. The leeks were strips of inedible ribbon. The toast? I think it had been toasted yesterday and left on the top of their oven overnight and then reused today. I had to get up from the table and ask for butter to make it edible and still I worried whether I was going to break a crown. The pickled vegetables? Again, HUGE, hard and barely pickled. I will refrain from criticizing the service because they are all unaware of the nightmare in which they are working. Bless their hearts. I was so sad and annoyed. People think they can buy a restaurant with recipes and wholesale accounts and staff and just run it, "business as usual" but they are wrong. I went in and asked if they had sold the restaurant and was told, "yes." I imagine some tech-bro's wife or some hedgefund community doodler wanted a pet project with zero idea about food or food quality or how to treat and retain employees because what happened to MHBB is astonishing. It's rude and insulting to anyone who opened this restaurant and put in their best to keep the name and claim to be catering to the same people. But then again, this is par for the course or, from my vantage point, everything wrong with what's happened in Marin in a nutshell. Faux authenticity. Zero care. This is now all about the money. I will never bother with it again.
