I've got dogs. What are the best places in Pacifica for being outdoors with pets?
Beautiful trails with gorgeous ocean and cliff views, breathtaking scenery, and abundant natural wildlife make Pacifica's Mori Point a beloved local treasure and favorite place for residents to bring their four-legged friends.

Is Pacifica famous for any kind of restaurant or food in particular? What's the local favorite?
Featured on the Food Network's Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives, Gorilla Barbeque serves up (what many consider to be) the best barbeque in the Bay Area. Situated in an old railroad car on Pacifica's Coast Highway, this take-out only joint boasts fresh and tasty (albeit messy!) eats, huge portions, great prices, and friendly service. Favorites include Gorilla's fall-off-the-bone ribs, tender brisket, juicy pulled pork sandwich, and sides like their homemade mac and cheese, potato salad, and delicious cornbread. Grab a combo (and some napkins!) and snag a seat at the picnic tables up on the hill. Just be sure to get there early because when Gorilla's runs out of food, that's it!
