History

Established in 1858.

Located in the San Francisco Bay Area for more than 160 years, 7 Mile House is the only Bay Area mile house left standing in its original location. From our colorful history as a stagecoach stop in the 1800s and an infamous sports gambling joint in the 80s, to becoming an award-winning establishment, 7 Mile House boasts great food, drinks and a unique history. Prior to COVID-19, 7 Mile House also thrived as a neighborhood sports bar and live music venue -- activities which we have placed on hold while the world gets through this pandemic. Once the situation normalizes, we will be back stronger than ever. If the 1906 earthquake, the 1918 Spanish Flu and the Great Depression didn't shut us down, COVID-19 surely won't. With our community's support, 7 Mile House will live another 166 years!

She is also a pioneer of the Filipino food movement in the Bay Area, introducing dishes like adobo and sisig to a mostly American and Italian menu.
