Dining Guide Walnut Creek Yacht Club

Ellen McCarty and Kevin Weinberg opened Walnut Creek Yacht Club in May of 1997 with the mission of bringing the finest and freshest from the sea to Walnut Creek. Why do we call ourselves a yacht club? Because we want to bring the atmosphere of a day on the Bay to landlocked Walnut Creek. We want our guests to feel comfortable, relaxed, and welcomed. All of our guests are instantly members of our Club-no sponsorship required. Our décor includes many beautiful nautical touches: teak, mahogany, stainless steel, and even an authentic jib which was a gift to Kevin from the America’s Cup Defender, Alinghi. Our walls sport prints and photos of racing yachts and America’s Cup memorabilia, as well as an extensive collection of burgees from yacht clubs around the world. If you don’t see your club’s burgee up there, bring it in. We’ll be happy to fly it, and we'll even buy you a drink to thank you for adding to our collection.
