Discover Avila Beach
A small coastal community tucked away on the San Luis Obispo Bay, Avila Beach attracts wine lovers, boating enthusiasts, and food aficionados in equal measure. The town is unique in that its rich soil supports several ranches in addition to locally-grown fruits and vegetables. It is thus not unusual for its restaurants to source its menu ingredients locally. Upscale-casual eateries feature entrée items like free-range half-chicken served with potato gratin, braised greens, and a Madeira chicken demi-glace. Seafood is also a menu staple with offerings ranging from clam chowder and stuffed prawns to a lightly breaded and grilled fresh rock cod. Additionally, several wineries in the area offer periodic tastings.
