Sonoma Happy Hours: Healdsburg, Santa Rosa, Petaluma

Dining and drinking have reached an all-time high thanks to tariffs, inflation, cost of labor, and consumer spending but that doesn’t mean deals aren’t readily available near you.

This happy hour list for Sonoma County could not have come at a better time. I have spent hours manually assembling and updating this list (no AI) for you by researching menus, calling & messaging establishments, and verifying offerings. See the date above to see when this list was last updated.

The list includes oysters, wine, beer, cocktails and more and is meant to focus on meaningful discounts, good value, rather than just $1 off items for limited offerings or mediocre discounts from steep regular prices.

This is a curated list, not a directory of places.

For example, some places may offer beer during happy hour but I didn’t mark it as such because the price doesn’t reflect that necessarily or there is only one beer offered at that price.

I didn’t include private equity-owned establishments, either.

The list of 20+ establishments contain days, times for happy hours, an ‘x’checkmark based on items offered: cocktails, beer, wine, and food. There will also be a note for more unique/special offerings at said venue, late-night hours etc.

Important note: Many places do not offer happy hour on holidays, so be sure to check on specific days if there is any doubt about offerings. Similarly, some only offer happy hour details in the bar areas or patios so be sure to check ahead if you have larger groups or don’t like bar seats.

As with all my lists, I will update/add to them based on interest, feedback. If you are a business owner or fan of an establishment and want to make sure I see the happy hour offering said place offers, send me a note through the conctact form on the homepage.

If unable to read easily, might have better luck rotating screen on phone and viewing in landscape mode.
