Cafs and Fine Dining Near Irish Beach, California

Contrary to popular belief, Irish Beach is not located in Northern Ireland or the Republic of Ireland, but is instead a community situated in Northern California. Irish Beach lies in Mendocino County, about three hours to the north of San Francisco and 45 minutes to the south of Mendocino Village. The community itself is small and close-knit, consisting of fewer than 200 homes, which means that staying in Irish Beach vacation homes gives visitors a chance to relax in a place that is calm and quiet. Irish Beach, in fact, is a community in which it is easy to hear the gentle pounding of the Pacific Ocean as it washes up on the nearby shore.

Towns nearby include Manchester, which is five miles distant, Point Arena, located 10 miles away, and Elk, which is just 12 miles from Irish Beach. Elk, in fact, is a good place to head to for dinner. One of the finest restaurants there is Bridget Dolan's, which features dining in a snug little cottage covered with flowers that attract hummingbirds. For a more casual option, head over to Queenie's Roadhouse Caf, which offers a variety of grilled sandwiches. A third excellent option in Elk is the Greenwood Pier Caf, where diners have views not just of the ocean on the horizon but can also admire the beautiful gardens as they listen to live music courtesy of Matthew Tyson.
