North Bay Code & Cocktails

A free North Bay tech meetup where developers and builders connect, share ideas, and collaborate over cocktails.
North Bay Code & Cocktails
Welcome to North Bay Code & Cocktails — a monthly tech hangout for developers, builders, founders, designers, and anyone curious about technology.
We meet once a month on Monday nights at The Big Easy in downtown Petaluma for a relaxed, social, high-value networking experience. No slides. No corporate vibe. Just real conversations, creative energy, and a community of people who like making things.
Each meetup features a rotating activity — and attendees get to vote on what we do every month.
Some of our formats include:
• Small-Group Speed Networking – meet new people without the awkwardness
• Side Project Swap – revive abandoned ideas in fun ways
• One Tool That Changed My Life – rapid sharing of tips, workflows, and discoveries
• Tech Trivia + Prizes – casual, funny, lightly competitive
• Career Therapy Circle – honest talk about work, burnout, and next steps
• Hot Take Night – drop your spiciest tech opinions
• Teach Us Something in 2 Minutes – fast knowledge sharing from anyone
• Pair-Up Challenge – brainstorm something cool with a stranger
• Solve-A-Stranger’s Problem – group brainstorming on real tech issues
• Adopt a Tech Newbie Night – mentorship in 10-minute bursts
• Anonymous AMA – ask anything without the pressure
Whether you’re a senior engineer, an indie hacker, a student, a founder, or someone exploring tech for the first time — you’ll meet great people, learn something new, and have a drink while doing it.
Come for the community. Stay for the creativity. Build something great together.
