Guidebook for Occidental
Food Scene
Low key restaurant with outstanding food. Located in an old western-victorian home where the bar is lively, decor is simple, and you can grab your own table but expect to have a delicious dinner with comfort food and local organic ingredients. I've had many dishes here and the Prime Rib, if available, should be a highlight of your dinner. Honestly, I think it's the best Prime Rib that I've had and I live in San Francisco.

A classic western-hotel that has been with the same family since the late 1800's. It's a large property with multiple spaces. The restaurant has a great menu and serves very generous portions with more food that you can eat at once. Bread, minestrone soup and meatballs are just some of the authentic recipes that will make you come back for more. The Saloon is a great lively place to go for drinks and some food. Locals seem to gather there and it gets busy in the early evenings. Great drinks, good comfort food. While at the Union Hotel don't forget to check out their bakery which is famous for its bread but also has amazing sweet treats like blackberry and apple tartlets.

I personally like the bar side better as they have an extensive menu, simple but filling, of traditional american-italian food. Drinks are good, very good selection of tap beer. It's just a very casual bar with good people and where locals hang out. Stop by anytime for lunch, breakfast or just drinks and you won't be disappointed.

If your thing is brunch then this is the place. Usually with lines outside the door on the weekends but the wait is worth it. Their menu is so long, with so many sweet and savory options for breakfast/brunch. All home made, natural and organic ingredients from the area. This is what used to be the old train station in Occidental, you can see where the ticket counters used to be, old hardwood floors throughout the space and a very homey feeling. Bring cash as they only take cash, but they also have an ATM inside the restaurant.

Parks & Nature
This is a great find, located off of Joy Road it's a quick drive from Occidental. It's a small redwood forrest located on top of a hill with younger trees thriving there alongside vineyards and views of West Sonoma valley. Check out the carved-in cave into a large redwood which seems to have survived a fire from a while ago and instead created a natural cave in the trunk.

Entertainment & Activities
The cedar enzyme bath is so unique that Osmosis is the only place in America that does it, just like traditional Japanese experts do it. Jump in a pool of cedar enzyme, just like saw dust and cover yourself up to the neck to cleanse your skin and body from toxins. Then have a rejuvenation or Osmosis massage for 75 minutes and will leave you ready for a whole new year of work. Seriously the best massage that I've had. Not to mention the Japanese-inspired installations as well as the Japanese garden in the back. So much to absorb and relax about. Make an appointment as it's a popular destination in the area and only ten minutes from Occi
