Our Story

The Bull Valley Roadhouse opened in October 2012, with the goal of providing a respite from the hubbub of the Bay Area and a focus on classic American fare & cocktails prepared from scratch in a pre-prohibition setting. A beacon at the end of a canyon road in the ramshackle dock town of Port Costa, the roadhouse welcomes locals, travelers and adventurous day-trippers alike in its 1897 landmark dining room and bar. Stepping into the saloon-like rooms, guests can sense more than 100 years of hospitality. The proprietors strive to maintain that warm tradition and leave everyone feeling relaxed, well fed and eager to return. Look for us under the golden bull.  Today, BVR is operated by Tamir Ben-Shalom (Owner & Beverage Director), Daniel Griffith(Executive Chef), and Daniel Rehnberg (Front of House General Manager).
