About

Trillium Oysters & Wine

Trillium is run by Northern Californians who invite you to enjoy our lovingly house-made food, local brews on tap, and a wide-ranging selection of wines.

Our menu features oysters, seafood, hearty chowder, and shareable dishes. Chef and co-owner Greg Barnes bakes our breads in-house and selects the best of local produce along with a diverse choice of local and imported cheeses and domestic charcuterie.

Wines are selected by co-owner Genny Payne and feature wines from local vintners and around the world, with a special emphasis on organically and biodynamically grown grapes.

"A New Generation Is Bringing Its Own Funky Vibe to the Russian River," Sonoma Magazine, July 2025
"And good luck narrowing it down to a glass on the nearly bottomless wine list."

"Guerneville wine bar Trillium expands its offerings," Santa Rosa Press Democrat, March 7, 2025
"I can't resist saying it: tiny Trillium, in tiny Guerneville, is setting the bar high."

"Where to Eat on the Russian River," AFAR, August 2, 2024
"Despite being in a region renowned for its pinots and chardonnays, it’s the only proper wine bar in town. Cozy and convivial, it’s an ideal place to wind down after a busy day with a glass from its the organic- and biodynamic-focused wine list and small bites like oysters, tasting boards, and bread baked in-house."

The trillium flower

In early spring, the delicate petals of the wild trillium flower appear in our local redwood forests. Watch for them by the side of the path while you're walking in Armstrong Woods.
