Timeline
16:27
Walk along Main Street to Museum on Main. The building is near Blue Agave. Use the free entry to see the rotating exhibits on Pleasanton's history and filming locations while the interior is still bright.
16:57
Step into Inklings Coffee & Tea just two minutes from the museum. Order a coffee or tea and take a seat in one of the separate rooms like The Wardrobe. It is a large shop with many sections, perfect for waiting out the final minutes of daylight.
17:12
Exit the museum and head back toward Main Street. Stand outside near Blue Agave to watch the sun set toward the WSW. The bright colors reflect off the buildings and the street.
17:42
Dine at Baci, the Italian restaurant on the corner of Main Street. It has outdoor seating along the sidewalk, allowing you to enjoy the evening air. The pasta dishes are generally $20 or $30.
18:42
End the night at Cellar Door, a wine bar just three minutes away. The wine bar is laid out like a retreat with a large patio area in front. Order wine, beer, or food items like flatbreads or chili.
Local tip
Museum on Main is open Tu-Sa 10:00-16:00 and Su 13:00-16:00. For this evening plan, you visit the exterior and the surrounding street life after the museum closes, so opening hours for the museum interior do not restrict the timeline. Cellar Door is open Tu-Th 04:00-22:00, so it is open late enough for your post-dinner drink.
Check before you go
- Museum on Main closes at 16:00 on weekdays. The plan uses the exterior and nearby shops after this time.
- Cellar Door closes at 22:00 on weekdays. Ensure you arrive before then.
