Good food Their food is good, but a little overpriced. I love the outside patio which is close to the Petaluma River (which isn't the prettiest of rivers). It's nice to eat here and then walk over the bridge into downtown.

Great beer and food! Love Dempsey's! They serve great food and beer. The menu has an eclectic mix that never fails to delight. The waitstaff are friendly and knowledgeable. And the onion rings are a family favorite!

Good Food This restaurant is by the Petaluma River. They have a outside patio you can eat on. They have a good selection of sandwiches and salads. The prices are good. The staff is helpful and friendly.

favorite family and friends meeting place! Dempsey's is our #1 restaurant in Petaluma for casual or evening a special night out. We love sitting outside and watching the egrets perching in the trees, while enjoying their home brewed beer and fresh local food!

Dempseys Dempsey's is located by the river at the end of the walking bridge. They produce their own tasty beer and delicious food. There is a large patio by the river where dogs can be tied to the fence to watch there family eat. It's a friendly atmosphere with a friendly wait staff.

Crowded, but excellent food – We went there around 8pm on a Friday night and the place was packed. There were 7 of us and they don't take reservations on the weekends (and yes, Friday night is considered part of the weekend), so we had to wait a bit. Once we were seated, the service was good. My husband and I both had the flat iron steak with summer salad. Amazing! Peppery steak and fresh crunchy greens. I can't wait to go back and have it again. Another friend got the figs and polenta, which I tasted, and it was yummy too. ... read more

Brews and food by the river – This has become a great riverside location. When the weather is nice(r), sitting outside, by the Petaluma river, enjoying an ale brewed on site and some really nice dishes put together by an efficient kitchen, it does not get any better. And there is plenty of parking. Still my favorite place to stop at every time I am in Petaluma and that, since 1991. Highly recommended.

Great Food, Friendly Service! – We've been to Dempsey's several times and always enjoyed very good food. The main menu has some very tasty standards (great pork chops) but their specials always stand out. They use many local ingredients and turn out creative spins on old favorites. It has some nice riverfront seating and always friendly service. Service is attentive but more relaxed than the hustle of the Bay Area. Go to enjoy the great food and nice comfortable atmosphere.

Good lunch spot – I just Do Not Get the Beer here. However, fries and a burger on the River are a good lunch combination. Salads can be great or totally underdressed but you can always ask for more dressing
