Jaded Toad BBQ & Grill Cotati - Bar & grill in Cotati - 500 E Cotati Ave, USA

Neither snow nor rain nor sleet... we're outside drinking! They do it right here, great smoked meats, a plethora of fine brews, and a real staff makes this a cool hangout. They got a couple screens at the bar, Cornhole fields to attend to, and plenty of fire pits to keep you warm. Oh, and a 2-5 weekday happy hour that's just plain fantastic!

Our first time dining here was a mixed bag of good and bad. My summary is that we’ll try it again if we are in the area and hungry, but definitely won’t go out of our way to come here. Except for the bar, which is under a patio roof, all of the seating is outside, which we liked. There’s an area for games, which is also cool. Our server was terrible. She didn’t know the menu, and was visibly annoyed by our few questions. She also forgot to bring several items we requested. The food was hit and miss. Most of the meats were good, though we all were frustrated that brisket is only available on Saturdays (?!?!) - we were there on a Friday. The brussel sprouts and queso were both TERRIBLE. The sprouts were mushy and had weird flavor combos going on, while the queso was really bland with overcooked chips. The side dishes - Mac n Cheese, baked beans, and mashed potatoes - were all bland as well. The BBQ sauce was good, but we weren’t given enough (esp on the mixed plate) and were not apparently able to get more from our server. For three adults, with three bevvies, two apps and two entrees, this meal was definitely not worth the $105 pre-tip that it cost us.

Casual spot with outdoor seating & patio heaters, not dog friendly. Tasty fresh food, good sides and beers on tap. Table service. Corn hole to play on the side. Big parking lot

Just expensive with no frills burger and 2 beers. The burger very plain Jane, nothing really there. Beers are as expensive as you can possibly get in Sonoma County. And kinda flat too. No wonder the place was dead on a Friday eve. Want a good review? Step it up and lower your damn prices.

It was Greg's (the owner) birthday and we had a great bunch of cornhole games with him and his buddies. Raina was the best! We will be back 💕

This is such a wonderful place to relax with friends or family. Nice places to be in the shade. Fire pits, corn hole and a great overall atmosphere. BBQ was delicious, artichoke was a little soggy but I was happy overall. Super nice servers and I'll be back.

Good size portions of food. It was taco Tuesday so we tried some street tacos which were great. Will come back for those. Since it’s cooler outside they had patio heaters on. The mac and cheese tasted good but could have been served warmer. Our cheese dip also cooled quickly but that could have been due to the temperature outside.

Can't bring your dog anymore!!! 😕 Still a great spot especially at night. Well kept restrooms with fun signs and outstanding local art / metal signs. Pulled pork nachos and gowans apple cider 😋 awesome staff.
