Guidebook for Half Moon Bay
Food Scene
Good burger (grass-fed beef or vegetarian) and fries, seasonal salad (quality varies), serves local Hop Dogma and HMB Brewery Beer, best coffee in HMB (Four Barrel Coffee). Drinks are a little pricey (ex. $9 for a small mason jar of beer and $5-$8 for a latte) but the food is pretty decently priced for the quality area ($10-$15 for a burger or sandwich). It's mainly outside seating on patio benches.

Surprisingly good Indian Food in Half Moon Bay. The flavors are unfortunately inconsistent each time we've gone but it has never been bad. We prefer this to Ark Grill on Main St. but we also prefer stronger/spicier flavors.

A tourist favorite - great views, strong drinks, live music, lively atmosphere. The seafood is pretty fresh but since it's a touristy place, it is also a little pricey for what they give you. It can get pretty packed in the summer.
