MacCallum House Restaurant CALIFORNIAN
( MAP GOOGLE MAP ; 707-937-0289; www.maccallumhouse.com ; 45020 Albion St; cafe dishes
$12-18, mains $25-42; 8:15-10am Mon-Fri, to 11am Sat & Sun, 5:30-9pm daily; )
Sit on the veranda or fireside for a romantic dinner of all-organic game, fish or risotto
primavera. Chef Alan Kantor makes everything from scratch and his commitment to sus-
tainability and organic ingredients is nearly as visionary as his menu. The cafe menu,
served at the Grey Whale Bar , is one of Mendocino's few four-star bargains.

from 6pm Thu-Sun)
One of those semi-secret institutions, the menu here changes with what's available locally.
When we passed that meant wonderous things like yogurt and scallion marinated wild
jumbo prawns. The dimly lit, bohemian setting overlooks rambling gardens. Check the
website for the excellent-value, three-course meal with wine for $25 and other events.
Drinking & Nightlife
Have cocktails at the Mendocino Hotel or the Grey Whale Bar at the MacCallum House
Inn . For boisterousness and beer head straight to Patterson's Pub .
Dick's Place DIVE BAR
( MAP GOOGLE MAP ; 45080 Main St)
A bit out of place among the fancy-pants shops downtown, but an excellent spot to check
out the other Mendocino and do shots with rowdy locals.
