On the second and last Tuesdays
of each month, guests enjoy
live musical entertainment to
accompany their meals. The
lively music of a Latin Jazz/Salsa
Band complements the “Taco
Tuesday” dinner special and is
featured from 6 PM – 9 PM.
Similarly, on the second and
last Saturdays of each month,
diners delight to the sounds
of live jazz music from 7 PM
to 10 PM. Musical evenings
tend to be very popular with
patrons, so reservations are
highly encouraged. These can be
arranged by calling PSB directly,
or via Yelp reservations available
on the PSB website.
In addition to the bi-monthly
musical entertainment evenings,
the City of Pinole provided
approval for Pear Street Bistro
to host up to twelve special
events per year to coincide
with holidays or other special
occasions. These events are
typically hosted on the weekend
of the holiday or festivity and
begin at 10:00 PM and continue
until 1:30 AM. There is no
cover charge for attendance,
and events are limited to those
age 21 and over. (Please Note:
security is provided.) The events
feature music by one of several
preferred DJ’s, and the tables in
the main dining room are moved
to allow for dancing. Special
cocktail menus are typically
available for these events, and
there are often promos and
giveaways. Limited table seating
is available and is reserved for
those who pre-arrange for bottle
service during the evening.
Recent special events include
Santa Con in December, PSB’s
18th Anniversary Celebration
in January, St. Patrick’s Day and
an Easter celebration. Watch for
information about PSB’s special
events on Instagram or Facebook
or call the restaurant for more
details. You can also sign up to
receive PSB’s newsletter via
their website, which will provide
you with information about
upcoming events.
For those who are artistically
inclined, Pear Street Bistro
continues to offer Paint Night
on the last Monday of each
month at 7:00 PM. This popular
event has been ongoing for
the past couple of years, and
still draws maximum capacity
at nearly every event. The rear
dining area is transformed
into an art studio for aspiring
painters to test their skills at
creating the latest artwork
selection. Sponsored by Let’s
Paint of the Bay Area, the cost
for the painting experience and
materials is still a nominal $25.
Reservations for Paint Night
may be arranged at Squareup.

As described, there are many
great things happening at Pear
Street Bistro, but nothing tops
the quality of the food, drinks,
and customer service! My
family is one of many who
regularly frequents Pear Street
Bistro, whether to celebrate a
special occasion, or just for an
impromptu evening out. It is
also one of my favorite venues
for meeting up with friends,
and on several occasions, my
coworkers and I chose PSB
for afternoon team-building
events during Happy Hour! The
casual, yet elegant atmosphere is
comfortable, and there is a happy
and vibrant energy that exudes
from the staff and the customers.
The open kitchen affords diners
the opportunity to watch as food
is prepared, and it is inspiring
to watch the teamwork and
camaraderie between the kitchen
staff and the wait staff. Although
there is no booth seating, the
dining experience feels private,
allowing for undisturbed casual
conversation--yet there is an
exciting and stimulating vibe
that emanates from the dining
room and bar. Plenty of attentive
servers, and usually one or
