I love the atmosphere at Way Station! It’s casual but the staff are super attentive and friendly. You can bring your dog or kids and sit outside in a communal atmosphere and listen to live music. I love that you can come with a group and always find seating due to the picnic tables. They have great, local rotating taps as well.
My party got Totchos with pulled pork (based on a recommendation), rib rack, mac & cheese, and beef brisket plate. We really liked the Totchos - especially the tater tots! The brisket is good but chewy in my opinion. It was really soft and would break when poked by the fork! 5 oz was small for a party of four; I guess we should have gotten two orders. The ribs were falling off the bone. It was great. The mac & cheese could be better. It did seem like it was just heated up and given to us since the cheese wasn't gooey at any point in time.
The food is incredible, fresh and made from scratch. The food is top quality and everything I have eaten there is DELISH! Staff is so friendly and accommodating and make you feel like you are the most important guest there. Best BBQ around and definitely try the mac and cheese and the loaded tots!
Delicious bbq & sides, relaxing outdoor seating and would have been great except cook forgot half our order and they seem to have had kids issues in the past (due to signage). Staff did their best to apologize with free cookies.
From the rotating beer list, to the stellar food, great service and amazing outdoor beer garden, Way Station is a Fairfax must hit. Lots of live music, a couple fire pits for chilly nights, pet friendly, and a perfect pit stop for bikers. A local fave!
Just an awesome place overall! Great ribs, incredible rotating beer selection, and great layout for enjoying both of the aforementioned. Give them a try, if you haven’t already!
Went there because of a referral. Very glad we did. We had Smoked Chicken Wings, Tator Tots with Smoked Brisket and Fries. Everything was delicious and the table server was efficient and had an awesome personality, not found often in youth. Just as we were finishing up, the musical group called Bluegrass 1948 started playing. Haven't been to a live concert in years. We had to leave, but what we heard was fantastic 👏.
I want to like this place so badly. It COULD be such a great family spot. Easy ordering at the counter, outdoor space with heaters and large communal tables. The problem is that the staff and owners are so incredibly rude and unfriendly to families. I have gone back several times in hopes their attitude has changed, but each time am greeted with dirty looks and comments about keeping kids firmly in their seats. I would understand this if it was a sit-down service restaurant, but they’re serving mediocre bbq that you order at the counter. There are many spots in Marin that are so much kinder and welcoming of families. Way station needs to understand that they’re in the suburbs and families with kids are going to be prevalent. Embrace it instead of trying to rid the problem. Take a page from the Junction in Mill Valley, or the kids area in Bon Air, get a small play structure or defined section where the kids can play in one area while parents and adults can sit and supervise.
