A Grape in the Fog is your friendly wine bar by the beach. Located in Rockaway Beach, Pacifica, we are minutes away from downtown San Francisco & the Peninsula.

We all have craft-style beers, hard cider as well as non-alcoholic drinks such as Pellegrino or hot tea. Enjoy our select food menu featuring artisanal cheese, charcuterie, nuts, & dessert - of course! For a larger appetite, choose from Argentinean-style baked empanadas & galettes, a savory tart with seasonal veggies featuring Pacifica’s own Mori Jack Cheese.

"Great Concept. Wine Flights poured quickly after taking our order, but cheese plate took 30 minutes to arrive at the table after receiving wine.. Would have been nice with the wine. We were told they have been open for 3 years, would have expected them to have some of the service items together. Lively but not stacked out the door at 5PM. Only 2 people could have used 1 more. Excuse was a deluge of living social coupons being used."

"Grape in the Fog did not disappoint. We requested a special evening to celebrate Valentine’s Day after the fact and they delivered. They had a nice selection of fantastic tasting and affordable wines. The food was also great. The only critique I would have is that they ran out of their main dish, but that is what you can expect at any popular restaurant on a Saturday night (let alone on one that follows a weekday Valentine's Day). Thanks Grape in the Fog!"

"Overall good experience. The owner seemed unprepared for Valentine's Day eve, which was surprising given the amount of noticeable reservations. They were understaffed and overbooked, it took an hour for a charcuterie plate, but the wine was good and decently priced with a good selection. Go here on a random night for some cheese and wine, the hours are decent as well."
