Yankee Pier: Summer Nights and the July Wine Event
Every year for one month the Lark Creek Restaurant Group has their July Wine Event. This is a time to go out to dinner and go a little ‘crazy’ ordering a bottle of wine that you would never order at regular price. My husband and I look forward to this each year, and we take advantage of it at a time that couldn’t be more beautiful in our little town.
Most local Larkspur families know the Yankee Pier Restaurant. It was planned to be a family hang out, considering the sandbox with toys on the front patio and its proximity to ‘Dark Park.’ It’s definitely a place that offers good food and a nice, cozy atmosphere for parents that don’t want to end their day at California Pizza Kitchen.
The kid’s menu offers healthy choices, in fact I think this restaurant is the reason my kids like steamed broccoli and gourmet soups. There are also the usuals, meaning that kids who like noodles with butter and chicken fingers with fries are not ignored. Even if you don’t like seafood, there are many satisfying choices for all.
There is nothing like a warm, summer night on the patio with a little breeze blowing through the beach grass. Enjoying a delicious meal with a beautiful glass of half price wine in hand–what could be a better way to have a family dinner?
