Since 1920, Sam's Anchor Cafe has been a favorite waterfront restaurant on San Francisco Bay. Located in Marin County in the quaint historical township of Tiburon, we have long been famous for our american/seafood cuisine , our fun atmosphere and breathtaking views (check out the Sam's Cam) of Angel Island , Alcatraz and the San Francisco skyline. Our Ramos Fizz's Are Legendary! Weekdays and evenings are always relaxing and on weekends, well, we're just the most popular place on the Bay. It has been said that if you stay long enough you'll see everyone you've ever known. Come see for yourself why The San Francisco Chronicle voted us The Bay Area's Best Outdoor Restaurant!

About Sam's
Evenings at Sam's are especially rewarding. Unwind with your friends and a favorite beverage to one of our Kodak Sunsets . Then dine in the warm atmosphere of our remodeled dining rooms and treat yourself to the tastes of 90 years of culinary excellence from our seasonal dinner menu and our individually-selected wine list.
Hospitality at Sam's is a forgone conclusion. Whether you're visiting for brunch, lunch, dinner or just a few relaxing moments on our deck, rest assured that we will continue to provide you with the quality and service for which we are recognized. We are one of very few public restaurants situated right on the Bay with their own boat docks. From San Francisco you can drive here in about 20 minutes or you can take the Ferry Boat from Fisherman's Wharf in about 30 minutes or you can sail your own boat into Sam's from any port on earth!
