Shuffleboard was free, and we certainly took advantage and had a blast. We weren't really keeping score, but I won (10-3) if anyone is counting. On top of that, the live music set the mood, awesome indie tunes being performed on stage and an even better sound system. There's a jukebox on site too, to go along with the quirky decor and dim colored lighting creating an inviting setting. Also, service at the bar was excellent as we ordered a couple different cocktails. The whiskey sour and strawberry lemon drop were made well and quite tasty. So of course, we had seconds. Needless to say, I'm a fan of this place.

I ordered there beer with kimchi bloody Mary mix. Did not have enough mix and tasted nothing like kimchi. Second cocktail, the margarita special was good but way too sweet with too much agave. I ordered the mushroom bisque and it wasn't disappointing, it was down right pathetic. I love mushrooms, but this didn't taste like it even had any in it. Watery as all hell, and tasted of dirty water with not even salt to season it. I took two watery spoonfuls and one glance at the burnt ass from a frozen box, garlic knot that came with it and literally walked away from it. I love shelter cove, but won't be returning to marios probably ever after that. This and the ale house feel like since they have no competition in such a remote location, that they feel being half assed is okay. And me saying half assed is generous

They had a band playing the evening I visited -- band wasn't good, but it livened up the atmosphere. Definitely worth a stop over here in lieu of the big chain brewery.

I feel like there are just enough haters leaving ridiculously negative reviews that completely lack the geographic awareness required to understand why anyone comes to a place called the MF Lost Coast. For starters, there are only like 3-6 places to go, period, let alone a restaurant where you can grab dinner and drinks. Why, you ask, my kind denizen of anti-reviews? Because you're on a stretch of far Northern California coastline that's practically cut off from mainstream civilization. There's one road in and out, and the closest town is at least an hour away, let alone a proper grocery store. No drug stores. No Uber Eats. And, most blasphemous of all, no Costco. Or, if you prefer your single-serving organic vegetables wrapped in plastic, no Trader Jizzles. So yeah... for reasons, no one fucking lives here. I, for one, love this place. Is it perfect? No. Is it a deal? Absolutely not. But is it the best place within an hour to kick up your feet after a long day outdoorsing? Hell fucking yes. And if you actually want places like this to survive on a remote finger of the Northern California coast for years to come, maybe tell your single-serving, artisanal, Trader Blows organic attitude to get lost... somewhere else.
