Marin Date Night: Dinner and a Show at the Sweetwater
If you’re looking for a truly special evening or an unforgettable Date Night during your stay at Mill Valley Inn, Waters Edge Hotel, and Acqua Hotel, we highly recommend checking out Sweetwater Music Hall in the delightful heart of Mill Valley. It’s one of our community’s most beloved treasures, and it’s an experience you won’t want to miss.
Just a short distance from our three Marin Hotels, the Sweetwater has been a cornerstone of the local music scene for decades, hosting legendary artists and creating unforgettable nights for music lovers. The venue itself is intimate and inviting, with a warm, rustic charm that makes every performance feel personal. Whether you’re into rock, folk, jazz, or something in between, their lineup always has something fantastic to offer. The list of greats who have played this room is long and storied: Elvis Costello, Bonnie Raitt, Carlos Santana, Mavis Staples, and so many more. Make your own iconic memory at the Sweetwater, and make a night of it with a pre-show dinner at on-site restaurant The Rock & Rye!

Dinner & Live Music at The Rock & Rye and Sweetwater Music Hall
Before the show, enjoy a meal or a drink at The Rock & Rye, Sweetwater’s on-site restaurant. The menu features delicious, locally sourced dishes that highlight the flavors of Northern California, and their craft cocktails are absolutely delightful. It’s the perfect way to set the tone for the evening.
Here’s a nice little perk: If you are staying at one of our hotels, your room key unlocks a complimentary glass of house wine, beer, or sparkling! Just show your room key to the staff and your first drink is compliments of the house. We love sharing our only-in-Marin favorites with guests and it’s even better to do so when we can offer you a special perk!
Live Music at Sweetwater Music Hall
Once the music starts, you’ll be amazed by the acoustics—every note feels crisp and clear, and the intimate setting means there’s not a bad seat in the house.
What really sets Sweetwater apart, though, is its sense of community. It’s not just a music venue; it’s a place where people come together to share in the joy of live music and connect with one another. Whether you’re a lifelong music enthusiast or just looking for a fun night out, Sweetwater has a way of making everyone feel right at home.
