A wine bar in Benicia on the Carquinez Strait in the San Francisco Bay Area, The Loft delivers a thoughtful wine selection and the warm, intimate bar atmosphere of one of the Bay Area’s most underrated waterfront towns. Benicia was California’s second state capital; the Carquinez Strait views are genuinely beautiful; and The Loft gives this historic waterfront town a wine bar worthy of its quiet, unhurried character.
