Sugar City

The small Historic City of Crockett is perched in the Hills above the San Pablo Bay and Carquinez Strait. Panoramic and expansive waterfront views are the norm here. Known affectionately as Sugar City thanks to the charming C&H sugar Factory, still operating today! This sweet city is experiencing a surge of arts and restaurants. With 8 Galleries in the downtown and several new retail boutiques opening within the last few years the scene downtown is hip and vibrant. Restaurants in town are not to be overlooked. The Dead Fish is a well known restaurant that attracts crowds from all over the Bay for its delectable dishes BUT the options don't end there. Wandas, a charming Bakery and Restaurant is delighting the region with their fresh Baked goods and artfully prepared lunch and dinner options-think fried chicken sandwich, salmon and asparagus etc. Lucia's sandwiches, right next to Wandas, has already made a name for itself across the region with sandwiches like squash blossom grilled cheese and ham with ricotta, arugula and apricot jam. They have already opened a second location in Martinez and received high accolades from Diablo Magazine among others. Crockett is a short 10-minute drive across the Bridge into Vallejo and Mare Island where you can catch the Ferry to SF or 15 minutes to the nearest BART station! Other cities in the region are easy to visit the quaint Port Costa just a 5-minute drive across town and 12 minutes through the hills to Martinez. With charming vintage architecture downtown and newer homes in the hills there are different styles of homes to please anyone! Prices in the last year have ranged from $525k for a 3-bedroom home to 1.06m for a 14 bedroom 4 plex this up-and-coming city is still very affordable!
