Over the past decade or so, natural wine bars have proliferated around the Bay Area, clustered mainly Oakland and San Francisco but slowly spreading to other communities in the region.
Steven Huynh, owner of Goodtime Bar, stands in the bar in Fountain Alley in downtown San Jose, Calif., on Monday, March 11, 2024. They run for about three miles. Here are three wine bars to try that have opened within the past year in San Jose, San Anselmo and El Cerrito.
As it nears its first anniversary, Steven and Ann Huynh’s wine bar is all about inclusion and accessibilty. Steven’s Asian American upbringing didn’t include much exposure to wine or to the etiquette and knowledge expectations he says often accompany a traditional wine tasting. Wall-to-wall windows are a highlight of this charming space, set inside the town’s iconic Cheda Building, circa 1911. The building became San Anselmo’s first movie theater in 1914 and later, a series of businesses — drugstores, a lounge, an office — before its final metamorphosis. Today, it’s Voyage Bar, decked out with stylish reclaimed Douglas fir and redwood accents and vintage light fixtures.
