Wine with a View #1 La Costanera

I've set myself the arduous task of visiting all of the bars overlooking the ocean on the San Mateo Coast to have a glass of wine and report on the experience.

Since it is right in my backyard, I started with La Costanera which just opened last month. What a pleasant experience! The bar is downstairs and has an outdoor deck with heat lamps and two large, lava filled, fire circles. We got there just as the sun was setting and were able to sit outside and enjoy the sites and sounds of Montara Beach. 

Happy hour is 5pm to 7pm and they offer house wine for $4 and all bar plates for $6. What a deal. The staff is super friendly. Just to whet our collective appetite for Mavericks, they feature two big TV screens with footage from previous competitions.

Here is my husband enjoying the view
