The Experience, Richmond: Riggers Loft Wine Co.

The Experience: California Wine + Cider + Cuisine on the Bay!

Rigger’s Loft Wine Co, like other Contra Costa and Alameda County businesses, has returned to The Purple Tier zone with no more indoor dining. What does this mean at Riggers?

‘What it means,” says co-owner Barbara Brown, “is that we are back to Patio Life! We will again be open out on the patio for wine, cider and food overlooking the San Francisco Bay. The inside will be open only to purchase wine and food or to use the restroom.” Remember, masks are required at all times unless you are actively sipping or eating. Dress in layers and bring a blanket or windbreaker. It will be fun out on the deck celebrating the opportunity to sip wine and indulge in the great cuisine from The Arlington – an experience away from home! New hours are Thursday/ Friday, 4-7pm and Saturday/Sunday, 12noon- 7pm.

“These changes reflect the need to take advantage of the warmth of the day,” continues Barbara. Please check their website, FB page or call 508-692-8414 for updates on hours during this ‘no indoor dining’ phase, as well as hours for musicians. Weather may cause changes.

Special this week! Thursday November 19 is National Zinfandel Day! Join Riggers for $2 off glasses of Zin or 20% off a bottle. Reflecting their love of music, some wines you can buy are the 2013 zydeco zinfandel and the 2014 swingsville zinfandel. Check them out!
