An Afternoon in Half Moon Bay #ExploreHomeFirst


This week I spent an afternoon in Half Moon Bay, a small town on the peninsula with a population of around 11,500 people. Getting to Half Moon Bay from downtown San Francisco takes less than 40 minuets by car. As you can see from the photo above the weather was not perfect but it was still a great day with the family, having good conversation and eating delicious food.

We originally went to Half Moon Bay to have the delicious dairy free clam chowder at Barbara's Fishtrap but when we looked across the street and saw the great out door seating at Half Moon Bay Brewing Company, and a quick glance at the sky to make sure there was no rain coming our way, we decided to eat there. This place did not disappoint! The food was fantastic and they had an awesome selection of beer, I highly suggest the Blackberry Belgian Blonde. I was a bit thrown off by all of the beer infused deserts and decided to end things on a high note and not explore that side of the menu. 


Half Moon Bay was full of dog lovers and families picnicking on the beach. It was an awesome change of environment even if it was only for a few hours. We did end up taking some of the Fishtrap's clam chowder to go which was still great after a day in the fridge, I am drooling just thinking about it. I definitely suggest you make a quick stop in Half Moon Bay the next time you are in the Bay Area.
