Restaurants in Downtown Pescadero, CA

Duarte’s Tavern and Restaurant Located ‘stumbling ‘ distance from the Inn, Duarte’s Restaurant has been family run since 1894 and has been featured on the Food Network and PBS.  In addition they won a national James Beard Award for excellence. The bar you see original owner Frank Duarte in above is the one you will lean on today. Now run by Frank’s grandson Tim, great-grandson and G\great granddaughter Ben & Nina continue the family tradition.

Come see why Guy Fieri of the Food Networks “Diners, Dives and Drive-ins” named Duarte’s one of his ten favorites. Due to OVID the hours have been reduced to 11AM to 6PM, Tuesday through Sunday.  Our favorite is the half & half Green Chili and Artichoke soup. And save room for olallieberry pie, a’la mode of course! http://www.duartestavern.com/
