Museum
Located in Richmond, California, Rosie the Riveter National Historical Park is a tribute to the men and women who contributed to the WWII home front. The visitor center showcases exhibits that highlight the significant role played by workers during the war. Housed in what was once an old Ford Auto factory, this historical park features memorials and displays honoring real-life 'Rosie the Riveters' and others involved in the war effort.
The visitor center is located at the end of the pier inside the Ford plant compound. Plenty of free parking and free to visit the center. There's a theater with films on the subject of women in manufacturing during WWII and the sequestoring of U.S. citizens of Japanese descent in concentration camps during the war. Upstairs, there are a couple of exhibit spaces and a gift shop. The visitor center also participates in the Junior Ranger program. The history of the mobilization of women and minorities during the war period is fascinating. No doubt the incredible output of ships from the shipyards at Richmond helped to win the war. It also demonstrated how rapidly a skilled workforce could be developed and how women and minorities, which were previously excluded from the economy, could positively impact the needed increase in manufacturing output. It's a shame so many not only immediately lost their jobs the moment the war ended, but were once again marginalized. It's interesting to imagine what the economy could have experienced, and how the intellectual capacity and skilled labor force could have pushed the American economy and society forward if the post-war period had been so regressionary. Worth a visit. An important history of the war period and beyond.

Drive through the north guard gate around the large Ford Assembly Plant building to park nearer their building on the southeast side. Informative collections and nice installations, though some repairs needed, still worth visiting! We happen to visit when a real Rosie gave a talk, so great.
Vini F — Google review
Wonderful museum with wonderful staff and guest “Rosies” with great stories to tell! Took the SF Bay Ferry to visit and really loved how detailed and informative the museum is. I highly recommend stopping by, it’s incredible how much history was created in Richmond, and rather sad that everything dried up when the plants closed down after WWII. Richmond is far from the vibrant community and downtown it used to be and it’s devastating to see what it used to be. Regardless, so much has changed since then and history safeguards what used to be.

Rosie the Riveter WWII Home Front National Historical Park in Richmond is one of the most meaningful and powerful places I have ever visited. It is not just a park but a living story of what the Bay Area contributed during World War II and how ordinary people rose up to do extraordinary things. Standing here, you can feel the weight of history while also being inspired by the strength and resilience of the women and men who built ships, worked in factories, and supported the war effort on the home front. The visitor center is incredible, with exhibits that bring the era to life. There are photos, artifacts, and powerful stories that tell you what it was like to live and work in Richmond during the 1940s. You learn about the shipyards, the housing boom, the struggles of rationing, and most importantly, the women — the “Rosies” — who stepped into roles traditionally held by men and forever changed the workforce. Listening to oral histories and watching short films, you can almost hear their voices echoing through time. Walking around the park grounds adds even more to the experience. You can see the historic shipyard buildings, the cranes, and the shoreline where so much work took place. The views of the Bay and San Francisco in the distance remind you of how vital this area was, and still is. There are memorials and signs that help you understand what once stood there and the impact it had on the war effort. It is both humbling and inspiring to stand in the same place where history was made. What I love most about Rosie the Riveter Park is that it is not just about history in books, it is about people. It tells the story of women breaking barriers, families adjusting to wartime life, and communities working together under incredible pressure. It is about sacrifice, resilience, and determination, and those lessons still feel important today. Visiting this park is an experience that stays with you. It makes you proud of what everyday people accomplished and grateful for the freedoms that were secured through their hard work. It is one of the most significant historical sites in the Bay Area and a place I recommend to anyone who wants to truly understand the spirit of the home front during World War II.

Small museum. Enjoyed the movie and the staff were willing and available to share history. The entrance is a bit unusual as it seems that you are pulling into an assembly plant parking lot, but it you continue you will get to the museum. The entrance is water side so away from the parking lot. It is wheelchair ♿️ accessible. There is an elevator and it can take you to the basement bathroom and had an accessible stall. The theater was also accessible.

Space Explorers: THE INFINITE - Richmond

Museum of space history
Space Explorers: THE INFINITE - Richmond offers an incredible and immersive virtual reality experience that transports you to the International Space Station. The 360-degree views of Earth are breathtaking, providing a perspective that is rarely seen. Many have been moved to tears by the experience, and it's highly recommended for those who are curious about space exploration. The VR technology allows for a motion sickness-free experience, making it accessible to a wider audience.
I’ve never experienced something so amazing and immersive that got me so excited to share with my friends and family. Words alone don’t do this experience justice. When you put on your VR Headset you are transported immediately onto the International Space Station. 360 views of Earth from a perspective I’ll likely never get to see otherwise. Numerous times throughout the experience I got chills. I saw more than a few people wiping away tears when they took off their headset. Get your tickets to this ASAP. Once the word gets out, it going to be a tough ticket I’m sure. Don’t be dissuaded by the fact that it is in Richmond either. It’s RIGHT NEXT TO the Richmond Ferry Terminal which allows you another awesome opportunity, take a ferry ride from SF!
Mike O — Google review
Every time I visit The Infinite, I have a new experience, a new discovery. This is amazing. Closest I’ll get to going to space. Don’t let me forget that when I came back to earth I was greeted with this amazing view and saw an Astronaut!!! Get out to the Craneway to launch 🚀 into space!!!
Kerri D — Google review
My fourth time seeing Space Explorers: The Infinite (first 3 were in Montreal) and took another 2 guests along yesterday. Still absolutely mind-blowing and awe-inspiring. Lots of parking and while I went by car I see that the ferry from SF docks directly outside the Craneway Pavilion.
Anil P — Google review
Really enjoyed this. It's a virtual experience where you wear a headset and explore the international space station along with a room full of other people. It's quite well done, and very immersive. You really feel like you're there brushing your teeth and doing things with the astronauts although it is pre-recorded videos that you navigate around the area to find. Afterwards you sit down to have a VR spacewalk, again, it's pre-recorded but the views are truly astounding. You understand how to let go of life's troubles when you see things from this perspective. It wraps up with a light show in a different room and a little walk down a mirrored hallway. Great diversion from the day-to-day, and perspective broadening. Well worth it.
V T — Google review
What an amazing incredible experience - absolutely loved it!! I felt like I was on the space station without the motion. I was leery about going since I suffer from motion sickness. So glad there was no sensation of motion even while seeing the earth rotating slowly beneath me. I felt like the astronauts were right there with us. I also wear glasses with different prescriptions in my right & left eyes. I was able to see clearly without them on although I could have worn them in the head set if needed.
Terry P — Google review
Overall a great experience - engaging, informative and interactive! The staff was very nice and joyful which added to making our trip even more enjoyable. At the end there’s a great photo opp! We visited Carne y arena earlier that day and frankly were very disappointed - a 5min VR movie for 40$..
Rafał W — Google review
I was so looking forward to this, but I was pretty disappointed with it. First of all, as many have said it isn’t long enough, second of all there were a few technical issues that caused us to miss out on some of it, and third it was very similar to something I saw on my own Oculus at home (minus the documentary-like stories). I’m glad we got a group discount at $40 each instead of paying the full $50. Thankfully we didn’t have to wait like others mentioned, but overall it did not live up to all the hype.
Carey — Google review
We absolutely loved the VR portion of the program and would do it again. It was intimate, exciting, utterly gratifying if you any interest in space programs. After that, the art bits . . . It was a sensory assault to us. My ears still hurt and my spouse has a headache. You can skip it, they have a direct exit, and we recommend that.

This place really is a hidden gem in Richmond! Considering the location, deep in Richmond's Iron Triangle area, I was really nervous about bringing my young daughter. But I was pleasantly surprised! Great long, flat bike path, tiny paved undulating track for small kids or RC cars, then 3 progressively larger and more difficult dirt tracks for adults, complete with big jumps! People of all ages and races present, including a group of men with super fast rc dirt cars! These guys were really nice, willing to talk about their hobby, and respectful of others in the area, ensuring they weren't running into people or keeping them from enjoying the same area. Im impressed and looking forward to going back often with my kid!

The tasting room offers stunning bay views and hosts Oyster Sundays and open mic trivia nights. For beer enthusiasts, East Brother Beer Co., named after Richmond's lighthouse, provides a lively gathering space with various entertainment options.
Really enjoyed hosting our event with Rigger's Loft! A great venue that is brings the historic views of Richmond. Great service, great views and also, Chef Frank is a great addition that had amazing cuisine. Thank you, Kevin, Barbara, & Chef Frank!
Executive A — Google review
It is a glorious location for quiet conversation and wine tasting with a fantastic view, however… Rigger’s Loft is missing the mark. It’s like being in a beautiful theatre and watching a horrible play. The wines are not that impressive. The staff is hit-and-miss, unfortunately, and sometimes can feel unwelcoming. This is a beautiful spot in a unique and scenic location with an incredible view, and live music that tends to be wonderful. At $15 a glass, however, I expect more, and I am a somewhat of a regular here. Sorry folks. Missed opportunity, but improvements can easily be made.
Minea H — Google review
Beautiful spot with a great views, live music (small cover charge), wine, and some easy food. They have an indoor and outdoor area and plenty of parking. It’s rare to find such places within an easy drive/ferry from San Francisco so this was quite fun! The food is not overpriced, and plenty of pub style options. We only tried the fries and the server was kind enough to get us extra Tabasco. Not the biggest fan of their wines. The Pinot(s) were good but I didn’t like their syrah, nor the zin. My rating mostly represents the vibe, views, and staff. The band was great too.

Located at the end of Canal Blvd, this winery uses an historic building from the WWII Kaiser Shipyard. Offering great vista views of SF and the Marin Headlands past Brooks Island. Everyone there was very friendly and the walk through the winery to the tasting area was interesting. A great band, but the acoustics of the large open rafter space reduced the quality of their performance. We had a baked pretzel, which was passing just okay being over baked, and there was no melted cheese as the menu listed. A Quatro Formagio Pizza was tasty but undersized for the price. We didn't get to try the house wine, but the rose' we were served was good but from a different cellar. I would give them another visit when the weather is warmer for wine and music, but skip the food menu.

On Friday, 08/22, I was charged a $10 cover fee for "live music" that never took place. I arrived at 7:30 PM to find the venue nearly empty, the kitchen already closed (forcing us to leave for food), and no music of any kind. My date and I had only a single glass of wine before the bartender called last call. Charging customers for an advertised experience that was never delivered is misleading and unacceptable. If this is the standard at Rigger’s Loft, I see no choice but to warn others and avoid recommending this winery to anyone. That said, the location is unique, and the ambiance is a no-frills, down-to-earth space (that could benefit from some sound dampening). The wine itself was great and the bartender was welcoming and very service minded. It’s unfortunate that the positives were overshadowed by such a disappointing and misleading experience.

I enjoyed the wine, cider and available food truck during my 1st time visiting Riggers Loft. Located in the historic Richmond Shipyards district, I especially enjoyed the panoramic views of San Francisco bay and skyline and the free parking.

The view cannot be matched. They have outdoor seating very near the waters of SF Bay. You can see the hills of the East Bay as well as the Bay Bridge and sailboats floating in out of the Richmond harbor. I don't drink, but my friends enjoyed their alcoholic libations.

R&B Cellars Tasting Room, also known as Riggers Loft Winery, is a popular spot for wine enthusiasts. While tastings are currently on hold due to recent restrictions, the venue remains open for limited hours a few days a week for bottle and can purchases as well as holiday gifts. Visitors love the scenic views of the San Francisco Bay and enjoy playing games while sipping on excellent wine or cider available in growlers.
Love my R&B/Riggers Loft Winery! They're closed for tastings right now due to the recent December 2020 stay-at-home restrictions but are open for a few hours a couple days a week for wine/cider (by the bottle/can) and holiday gift purchases. Can't wait for them to open for tastings again to enjoy some yummy wine and awesome SF Bay views!!

Ships
The Red Oak Victory is a venerable World War II ship located at 1337 Canal Boulevard Berth 5, Richmond, CA. It offers self-guided and docent-led tours for visitors interested in nautical history. The ship is well-preserved and provides a wonderful experience for history buffs. Visitors can explore the immaculate museum exhibits downstairs and learn about the ship's storied past during their visit.
This ship was used as a cargo ship during WWII, Vietnam and Korean Wars. It was built in Richmond, CA and is now located at the same shipyard where it was built. There are guided (takes you to the engine room) and self-guided tours; both are educational. The ship is managed by the Richmond Museum of History and the loving caretakers are volunteers. There is a small gift shop and theatre. Their existence is based on donations, pancake breakfasts, movie/hall rentals, and gift shop. The ship is not suited to persons with limited mobility. You have to walk up this steep, shaky steel ladder to get on board. Once on board, you have to walk up narrow stairs to go up and down floors. The engine room's ladder to go down was very steep. You couldn't see the rung of the next step. If you have a phobia, this is not for you. Just avoid the engine room. Aside from that, the ship was interesting and if you are a WWII history buff, this ship is worth seeing.
Pamela L — Google review
This floating. Museum, a historic naval ship is one of the last remaining ships built during WWII offering a connection to Rosie’s and the Sailors who served on this wartime ship. My husband, being a Navy Chief, explored every inch of this ship. For me, being able to experience a glimpse of what it was to have served on this ship during war was incredible. The hammocks in the dual purpose mess hall or valley, the 3 and 4 beds in a room the size of a closet made me realize how difficult it must be to adapt to small spaces, no room for personal items and no privacy. I was happy to see movie night, and tiny ice cream counters, a small store, a Barber Shop, Dentist Ann of course Medical. They were served a traditibal Thanksgiving meal but that display was bittersweet understanding that they were not with families.The many decks require many stairs. This ship also brought to life the war between US and Japan. From Pearl Harbor to Okinawa to being decommissioned in 1946. Allow yourself plenty of time to visit every deck. TIPS: 1) Bring water, especially during hot months 2) Wear sneakers as ladders could be challenging for some 3) Duration could be 1-2 hrs depending on your interest level. We spent 90 minutes. 4) Weekday, during school periods worked for us as far as crowds go.

Finally made it to the pancake breakfast and it just happened to be during fleet week. Just be prepared for the wind.

Winery
Windchaser Wine Co is a young and up-and-coming Bay Area winery that's now producing some of the region's premier wines. Dave Gifford is a passionate winemaker who is learning all he can about making wine on his own and producing high-quality products. His wines are enjoyed by people all over the Bay Area, and he's certainly on the rise in this competitive industry.
I love the tasting experience with Dave personally attending to us on a Sunday afternoon. Apart from the service, the wines are made IMO European style and are extremely food friendly. I have tried extensively to many wine regions in many countries including Northern America, and I can say this place is worth a visit!

Windchaser Wine is a great place to spend an afternoon. They serve up beautiful and distinctly original wines in a comfortable and fun setting. Owner David is kind, funny, and provides great information on his wines and winemaking process. You can expect excellent, varied music on deck. We have been members for some time now and appreciate coming and relaxing for a tasting. Windchaser has some fun cheesy items to pair and also partners with great pop ups for both food and music, making it a full afternoon. Windchaser is very dog friendly and conveniently located a minute off the Bay trail. We often ride our bikes here for an afternoon tasting.

A really nice tasting room tucked just off the highway in Berkeley. I stopped by for a holiday work event and the place was nicely decorated for the season. I tried one red and one white while I was there. I found both the Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris to be very light and tasty in their own ways, and I would strongly recommend the Pinot Gris if you stop by. The tasting room follows common COVID safety guidelines. The staff were all wearing masks, the room was open and well-ventilated, and most attendees wore masks when they weren't eating/drinking.

My wife, kids, and I popped into Windchaser Wine after seeing signs for it on the road. We live nearby and were excited to check it out. We got two Flight of 4 tastings to get a feel for all of the wines. We really enjoyed the sparkling Pinot. The Malbec was also great. We ended up taking a bottle of each to go. The owner, David, was also really friendly and was happy to chat and answer our questions about wine. We're stoked that this is so close to our place. We will definitely be coming back regularly.

Restaurant
Assemble Kitchen is a trendy waterfront eatery nestled in the historic Craneway Pavilion, which was once a Ford Motor assembly plant. This unique venue not only boasts stunning bay views but also embraces an industrial-chic aesthetic that pays tribute to its manufacturing heritage. The restaurant features a diverse array of culinary concepts, including Latin-Californian dishes from Brezo, fresh seafood from Rocky Island Oyster Co., and mouthwatering barbecue from Tommy's BBQ Co.
I came to the restaurant Saturday afternoon, first time since the new owner took over. Instead of the previous for hall concept it’s an actual sit down restaurant and the owner was there to introduce herself. I was pleased to see oysters on the menu, $3 a piece. And the menu was good! The view is amazing. Very clean restrooms with changing table for kids. I saw previous comments and was hesitant to go but so glad I did. I saw the owner is working hard to make the place better and it’s truly unique place, so I’m wishing her well and will be back for those oysters!

The ambiance was very nice and the waitress was very friendly. However the kitchen was super backed up and my order took 40 min to arrive. It sat at the counter for 15 minutes (i guess they wanted to wait until my friend’s dish was ready) by the time we both got it mine was cold. I had to send it back and it took an additional 20 min. His fish and chips were far better than my eggs Benedict (they were just ok). I would recommend getting something else from the menu.

My coworkers and I decided to celebrate my birthday at Assemble Kitchen during our lunch break and it was a decision we didn't regret. The service was exceptionally warm and friendly, with a special mention to all the bilingual staff who went above and beyond to make our lunch memorable. Their thoughtful gesture of presenting a beautiful cake and singing happy birthday truly touched my heart. I opted for the chicken pot pie, and it was a culinary delight, bursting with flavor. My coworkers also enjoyed their meals immensely, each dish being a testament to the chef's skill and creativity. 🥗 🍲 🍅 The restaurant's spacious, open layout exuded a trendy warehouse vibe, adding to the overall dining experience. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to Assemble Kitchen to explore more of their enticing menu offerings. If you're searching for a place with exceptional food, welcoming service, and a unique ambiance, look no further than Assemble Kitchen. It's the perfect destination for any celebration or casual dining experience. - Gracias por su amable servicio ❤️

Can't stop coming back. Rustic elegance, awesome bay view, excellent customer service, and the bar make awesome cocktails. This place is a must do. It's worth the walk around the pier. The food was outstanding. The chilaquiles egg breakfast, wow! What a delight.

Cat friendly place to grab some good food. The service was decent and we found table when we got here. We had wet breakfast burrito, two scrambled eggs with side of Cajun potatoes and sourdough bread. The jam (blueberry I think) was the highlight. The food wasn't warm enough for my liking. The vibe and songs were fun.

Went to lunch with my mom and managed to catch happy hour! Great prices for their cocktails and super friendly staff focused on a great experience for patrons. The inside is very open and has a relaxing vibe.

This is a neat little restaurant on the water. Love sitting outside and when we went on a Saturday at 11am there was live music. I was a little dissapointed that the menu had been completely changed since the last time I had come a few months earlier and was left with very little to choose from. The burger was good, but when I was expecting to be able to order fish and chips it was dissapointing.

My husband and I visited here for the first time after our ferry ride back from SF. The vibe is chill and welcoming and the happy hour food was really tasty!

El Garage

Restaurant
El Garage is a popular dining spot in Richmond, CA that has gained attention for its delicious quesabirria tacos and spicy aguachile verde. The generous portions of cheese and meat in the tacos make them stand out, while the refreshing agua fresca options complement the flavorful meal perfectly. Originally a home restaurant, El Garage has transitioned into a brick-and-mortar establishment. The spacious location provides a great setting to enjoy their tasty offerings.
We always order our quesabirria tacos from here because they are the best, the aguachile is really good with just the right amount of spicy too.We also love el agua de horchata con fresa so refreshing and creamy. I’ll also recommend that if you order from Ubereats or Dordash rush your order because they get soggy or you just go to the restaurant and eat there.

This is definitely a place you want to try out! The horchata was refreshing and the tacos were super flavorful. The place is very spacious. The only downside is the price of three tacos is a bit steep, regardless of the great taste. By the way, try the habanero salsa on the tacos. It has just the right kick.

this place was really good! be careful when ordering the aguachile verde it is VERY spicy but amazing taste. I’ve never had birria in a grilled cheese before so I ordered that and was not disappointed. very friendly staff& they drinks they have are amazing as well! definitely worth the stop

Love this place! They have the best quesabirria that I've had. They put more than enough cheese and meat on the tacos and you will find the consomé full of meat as well... Both of their agua fresca (Jamaica and horchata) are amazing! Not too sweet and not too plain they were just right! Highly recommend this place if you want to have good food! ..... I'll definitely come back when they expand their menu ... Soon!
Cisco Q — Google review
Yessssss. This place is so so good. I got the Quesabirria, Consume, Avocado Tostado, and horchata… just - delicious. The consume was this amazing meat broth that I dipped the tacos in and drank out of the container. I don’t know what they’re putting in their horchata, but it’s SO good, too. The best I’ve ever had.
Jill F — Google review
Best quesabirria tacos I have ever had!! They were so fresh and flavorful, plus the salsa they came with was perfect! We also tried the horchata and it was so smooth with the perfect amount of sweetness. 10/10 Best place to get authentic quesabirria tacos!

If you’re looking at this review because you’re hungry for bomb tacos—do yourself a favor and just go here. The quesabirria/consomé/strawberry agua fresca combo will not disappoint!

I had quesabirra tacos, and they were great! Crispy meaty and very cheesy. Next time I will order some veggies to balance out all that meat.

La Lupita Mexican Eatery

Mexican restaurant
Tucked away in Richmond, La Lupita Mexican Eatery is a delightful gem that brings the vibrant flavors of Mexico to your plate. This cozy and inviting restaurant is known for its friendly staff and an array of mouthwatering dishes. Diners rave about the super nachos, enchiladas, and especially the quesabirrias—tender meat and cheese enveloped in sauce-dipped tortillas that are simply irresistible.
Homely, cozy and small Mexican restaruant. The value for the food is pretty good, prices were generally lower for the same dish compared to other restaruants. Lunch time wasn't as busy, maybe because this restaurant isn't really flashy with advertising, but its a nice place to eat at. Chefs and employees were very nice, quickly greeted anyone coming through the door. The employee that helped me came by every 5 mins to check if I was okay!

Ate here yesterday while I was in Richmond and loved this place so much!!! The staff are the kindest people and so friendly, the service was amazing. We got the super nachos and enchiladas and both were amazing and so flavorful! The nachos were the best nachos I've ever had. The horchata was also very refreshing. I definitely recommend eating here if you want some delicious food! Will definitely come here again the next time I'm in Richmond.

Fantastic restaurant, kind staff- truly one of my favorite places! Their spicy salsa will keep me coming back forever.

Ordered two crispy steak tacos. The taco shell was so old and stale, tasted like pure canola oil. The steak was cold and had no flavor. The cheese was that basic fake cheese. The pico de gallo was not fresh and definitely from a bottle or can. Lettuce was old and soggy. Left my plate as pictured. People seemed nice, although we weren’t greeted when we walked in and picked up our own menus. I was very disappointed in the quality of food.

This is the real deal. The green sauce on the enchiladas was excellent. Pastor was spicy with a nice tangy finish. Staff is very chill and friendly. Prices are reasonable. If you're stopping for a charge, I highly recommend this place

Stopped for the Tesla charger and found this 💎. We were the only ones in at that time, but the place was lively with a bright decor and Rancheras playing. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The food was fresh and tasty. Portions were generous! I wish this place were closer to my home.

Visited on a whim since I was driving by. I asked the server what the most popular items were and he said the fajitas and quesabirrias. I'd never had quesabirrias before so I decided to try that, and they were incredibly delicious. Very flavorful meat, cilantro, onions, and cheese toasted in sauce-dipped corn tortillas, served with a red and green sauce. All delicious. At the end of the meal I was really surprised that my hands were not greasy. Really happy I found this place.

My fish taco plate was delicious, and the seating and service was great. I’ll have to go back to try their other offerings. Lots of parking around.
