Casino Bar & Grill

The food tastes like home cooking, but, way better. Servive is awesome and I will always love the incredible atmosphere.

The Casino is an old dive bar - complete with 2 pool tables, a juke box, pin ball machine, and large mounted tv for whatever game is on at the moment - with a kitchen. There's always a different, delicious nightly menu - it gets posted on their Facebook page daily. Delicious! Order your food at the counter, then your drinks at the bar, and grab a table. Your food is delivered to the table when ready. Make sure you bring cash, as they don't accept credit or Apple/Google Pay. There's a working ATM that charges $ 2.50 if you don't come prepared. Worth a visit! Don't forget to check the menu online before going!

Affordable, local dive bar with food. Not a casino for the gambling, but they have pool tables, pinball and an arcade game. Also an older model jukebox. The people are wonderful and I always feel comfortable there. An assortment of locals can be found on any day; fisherman, ranchers, surfers, hippies, bikers... Others come on the weekend for the food. Low-key ambiance and a basic bar. Affordable, not too fancy. They have a small, regular lunch menu of burgers and dogs, and a dinner pop up with a different menu every night.

Fantastic bar with sweet vibes and cold Coors in a bottle. Get the grilled cheese, put on some Dolly Parton and shoot a round of pool. A perfect night in Bodega.

We heard about there burger and it was worth the drive. I got the double cheeseburger no ketchup with there sauce. My mom got the double hamburger no ketchup with there sauce. It was really good cooked about medium and was really juicy. Unfortunately they dont have french fries but they do have chips. Will definitely stop there again soon it's a definite recommend

Sam, the bartender the day I stopped, was Fantastic! And she cooked up the most outstanding double cheeseburger!!! I was there before dinner time, but I understand the menu changes most every night and is quite good as well. The dinner choices were few, but we Great choices....

A casino in Bodega? it’s SO much more! This little place sits beside the beautiful Santa Teresa church and looks like an old saloon from the outside complete w a porch and plenty of people hanging around the door watching pool or checking out the tiny city of bodega - inside there’s a pretty old bar, walls lined w animal trophies and a back room with a few tables for seating if you wish. They serve fantastic lunches (perfect tuna melts and burgers, beer and such) but dinner is where the real magic happens as you watch the chef of the evening whip up classics like pot roast w potatoes, green beans and carrots w an onion brown sauce to crab cakes, pork loin plates, crazy good salads like mixed local greens w local blue cheese, candied pecans, pears and a mouth watering vinaigrette and delicious pasta dishes - all made w local greens and proteins. Hard wood floors are original and the atmosphere can be loud with pool tables near by and a jukebox beside the bar . The place is almost always swamped but they work hard to get food prepared quickly since most orders are to go. Cash only here - it’s 100% worth the trip! Prices are generally reasonable, too

Sometimes I wished that I live in a small town and had a bar like this next door to me. When looking to spend time in Bodega Bay, I saw dive bar and the description and thought…yes I am stoping there. It is a small menu and appears to change daily but what a menu. I had the duck meatballs. My husband had the polenta. We both could not be happier. For dessert the only option was the panna cotta. It tasted really earthy but the flavor got better with ever bite. The nectarine complimented it very well. The service was great. I love the deer heads mounted on the wall. If I lived in town I can see myself coming here everyday. I highly recommend it.

I think I just found the best chef I swear to you! Enter into this old honky tonk bar with a great vibe not realizing I just entered culinary heaven I can’t say any words to qualify how delicious the food is!! The lamb shank was on special, served over hominy. PERFECTION

The best cheese burgers north of the Golden Gate Bridge. Delicious. Award winning cuisine with unique dishes introduced each day. My son and daughter love this grill.

Locals call this the town living room because it’s where everyone meets to either have a good time or have a community discussion. This bar has amazing burgers! It’s also welcoming to outsiders. There’s a lot of history here. Alfred Hitchcock and his film crew ate here almost every day while shooting the movie “TheBirds” If you’re lucky you may run into the owner or some of the bartenders who were either in the movie or helped serve Alfred Hitchcock back when the movie was filmed in the 1960s. Lots of local memorabilia on the wall. The beer is cold and the staff is friendly!

We each had a burger which is a great deal at $8. It was juicy and tasty. Staff was nice and environment historic with lots of taxidermy

Note- cash only! Atm on site but it can be finicky. Quaint little hole In the wall place. Fun arcade games and 2 pool tables, good beer selection and they have some canned kombucha and wine options as well. Menu is meat only, so no vegetarian options, but good flavor.

Incredible wild salmon entree and Calamansi cream tart on a recent Thursday night. They were busy, friendly, and generous! A definite return and recommendation for this rustic, casual and fun historic atmosphere.

Went to Casino yesterday,no slot machine,no frills,basic menus on wall. We ordered tuna melt and cheeseburger for outside. Brought dogs with us. Food delivered by bartender and it was simple and delicious. Another dog owner and his service dog Dixie came out and visited. Good down home spot.

Love this spot! The atmosphere is always welcoming with friendly people and a strong sense of community. The menu changes regularly, which keeps things exciting, and everything I’ve tried has been excellent. Great place to grab a bite, have a drink, and feel like a local. Highly recommend!

What a find! I heard this was the "best burger" I would ever eat. It did not disappoint. Power was out yet Scott still managed to serve up an amazing margarita (amazing!) and literally the best burger I have ever eaten. I mean delicious. Get it just like Scott makes it. Great service, nice crowd around the bar, and fun scene. Can't wait to come back.

Best burger in Sonoma County. Noon-3. They run out so get it early. Real chefs on Thursday make amazing menus. Definitely killer.

I stopped today for a refreshment & a burger. What I got was 5 children under the age of 10 acting crazy eating at the bar & ruining the atmosphere that this bar is known for.. Multiple bar violations & not cool at all... EVIE would be SO disappointed.

We came in ready to spend money, grab a bite, and enjoy drinks at what we hoped was a fun local dive bar. We ordered two Long Islands with mid-shelf liquor—not well—and the bartender (skinny guy with long hair) immediately said, “That’s a disgusting drink.” We were shocked but let it go. As he made the drinks, he repeated how “disgusting” they were, then blatantly ignored our request and used all well liquor anyway. Zero care, zero respect, and clearly zero interest in actually doing his job. He seemed proud to run off two happy, paying tourists. We’re bikers—we love dive bars—but this wasn’t edgy or quirky. It was just bad service from someone who shouldn’t be behind a bar. Total disappointment.
