“This place took me by surprise how Big it is in person! The tall columns are what make the beautiful architecture stand out. Its a public place you can walk around at no cost! I had the pleasure of taking photos here for an awesome couple.”
“Staff are great, specifical team the checked me in at late afternoon helpful, and pleasant, and well organized. I found it welcoming and lobby area had plently if information abiut sites and places to eat in the area, with everything posted in a engaging fun way, yet profession and lobby and hallways very clean. Did a walk around inspection of the kichen, dinning/common area, bathroom, TV area and everything was exteremly clean and well cared for. I stayed in 5 room (3 others besides myself) and room was clean. Llinens offered were professional laundered and I like new/perfect condition. Many noteable San Fransico sites I found to be within a 1-2 walkable distance. I will definitely stay here when I must travel SF for medical appointments, and recommend to others! Must appreciation to the hard-working staff.”

988 Columbus Ave, San Francisco“Pick a show and go. It's going to be great. Good for your ears, eyes and heart. Great neighborhood/community live music venue to go with a date or a few cool friends or any family that wants to see and hear an artist pour their heart into their craft because they have to and they love to. Cool vibe. Part art gallery, part theater. Beer, wine, kombucha, sodas, cider, seltzers, NA beers, water. Friendly bar staff. :) ADA accessible with an elevator. Great room sound too. Standup comedy, magicians, poetry or performance art some nights too. Really varies. Pick a show and go.”
“Accidentally stumbled upon this place and were surprised. It is a place near the water where houseboats and yachts are moored. We saw goats in an enclosure and also many large beautiful sculptures. It is a very atmospheric place. We had a good time. At the same time, we noticed that there is a cafe with live music on the pier.”

3301 Lyon St, San Francisco“Saw a show here recently for the first time. Super impressive and beautiful place to experience. The theater is a small theater that hosts a variety of acts throughout the year. The columns and little pond outside are stunning. Not sure about parking, we walked to the theater. Bathrooms are easily accessible.”

495 Jefferson St, San Francisco“Great hotel and great location. Tenzin and the staff were great. Our server Juan Carlos (aka JC) was amazing and our bartender Jason was great. The food was outstanding as were the views.
Rooms: Well maintained and great views.
Food & drinks: You will want to start your day with JC at the Blue Mermaid and end your day with Jason at the bar.”
“It’s cute but it’s definitely only for kids. If you don’t have a kid or aren’t a kid then don’t bother paying the $45 ticket. Go to the academy of sciences instead”
“We got married at the Outdoor Art Club in August 2023. It's a gorgeous venue that feels private and tucked away and also has the convenience of being in the center of Mill Valley. There's little need for additional decor because of all the lush greenery, flowers, and trees. The architecture is beautiful as well. It's a stunning setting!Mary and Dave were wonderful to work with, and we really appreciate how Dave made himself available so we could have a site visit during off-hours with our planner, and hold our rehearsal onsite the day before the wedding. The venue provided much of the furniture we needed (dinner tables, cocktail tables, chairs, umbrellas, etc.), which really simplified the planning and rentals process. All of our guests loved the venue too. There was plenty of space indoors and outside for everyone to mingle. We're so glad we got married at the Outdoor Art Club!”
“This place was an amazing venue to visit for a wedding. Nice, woodsy outdoor area along with an indoor bar and accompanying dance floor. This is a place I would like to visit again.”
“An incredible team, throwing some pretty incredible events. I'm fact, I've been to quite a few events now, and have never left without having had an epically fun time. Highly recommend”
10AM - 8PM
43 Main St, Tiburon“Have held two events at the Corinthian. Can't say enough. In each case the Corinthian was a dream venue. The setting can not be topped. The ballroom is beautiful, and the view from the club is breathtaking. The food was excellent. The staff both before the event and during the event itself could not have been more helpful, particularly the club manager John Nicolai ([email protected]). I would highly recommend this venue.”
“We absolutely love documenting weddings at the Presidio Officers' Club! It is managed by Wedgewood Weddings who truly cares about your wedding day experience and will make sure things run smoothly. We can't wait to be back and to document more weddings here”
“Bimbo's is fantastic! It's such a small and intimate venue. The sound was great. The margaritas were excellent. It was lots of fun mingling with people. I would love to see more shows there.”
“If you come here highly recommend the bartender Alex who was a gem, the rooftop views with an espresso martini and hamachi agua chile appetizer. Kale salad was also excellent.”
“Even though this little piece of heaven is right off Sir Francis Drake Blvd, it is tranquil and quiet. The gardens are gorgeous, event space is flexible, and parking is ample. You can visit for events throughout the year that are open to the public and also join Pixie Park for littles now that it's been redone!”
5:00 PM - 9:00 PM
1312 Mission Ave, San Rafael“I love my club! We just went to the family holiday party, and it was the best! The volunteers had great craft projects for the kids and even a “snowball” fight. The dinner was yummy, but even better was the Hawaiian ensemble ukulele players and dancers. I certainly didn’t expect that wonderful entertainment. That made it a delightful evening for the adults, too. Of course, the adults enjoyed watching the 49er rout of the Eagles on the big screen while the kids played with the volunteers.Then, the highlight for the kids was Santa! He was great, and the photographer took numerous pictures for the families. The kids received a generous haul of fun gifts, too.This was a truly magical afternoon/evening! Thank you, fellow elks, for such a fantastic time.”
“Stunning place!! The whole house is beautiful, with lots of nooks and "secret" rooms. It's easy to get lost in it! A great home for a few lucky cats too!”

95 Loch Lomond Dr, San Rafael“We recently held a celebration of life for 80 people at the Yacht Club. Colleen was a joy to work with during set up, planning as well as the day of. The staff was very gracious and supportive and took care of all the guest with easy and efficiency. We were very thankful how caring they were and would not hesitate to use the LLYC again.”
“It's such a beautiful yacht club. The dinner and service were great. The area the yacht club is in is wonderful.... great places to see within walking distance.”
“Fantastic venue for large events in Marin able to host 800 guests with amazing panoramic views of San Francisco and the Bays. The professionals who cater at Strawberry, All Seasons Catering, have a long time excellent reputation for delivering delicious and beautiful food and seamless service. Having been a guest at many events All Season have catered both on the property and at private homes and venues throughout Marin, I can honestly say they are our first choice for top notch catering in Marin and the East Bay. Considering hosting my milestone birthday at their relatively new on site outdoor spaces...something they are excited to offer clients after many rennovations and a change of ownership to the property has finally opened these beautiful vistas to events. Thank you Stan and Gay for taking the time to tour us around the property and discuss the event possibilities!”
“Came here to use the trailhead for a hike down to the tide pools. Park in the parking lot, go down past the goats until you get to a random sign with a long store pointing to the right. Follow that trail to the "dome trail", past the "bone Grove", and once you find the dome, walk across the meadow until you see the path down to the beach. Make sure to check when low tide is!”
“Attended my friends wedding. She had a haunted house, dark, scary theme going on and it was a really good fit. Super low budget wedding but a cool building. All the background people were really background I don't think I ever saw a single venue manager roaming around or bothering anyone.”
“We had our kids middle school graduation here. It's a great space with room for 50 comfortably. It's right by the Bay with beautiful views of Alcatraz. Recommend”
8AM - 10PM
1385 Hamilton Pkwy, Novato“Long overdue review! We hosted my sister's baby shower here a year ago and everything exceeded our expectations from planning to the execution of the event. Working with Laura was an absolute pleasure. She was so accommodating and helped us craft a delicious menu. On the day of, the staff was so hospitable and friendly to our family and friends. They even joined in the dancing and eased all nerves. We had one minor hiccup with the adapter to connect the iPhone for music (someone had taken the adapter from the previous event). One of the staff went to Target to get another adapter and it was smooth sailing after that. We had plenty of food and every dish was fantastic. It was one of the best catered meals I have had and I've been to many corporate events and dinners around the country. We went with the fajita buffet option and did a chicken/veggie option instead of a chicken/beef option.We are lucky to have this venue in the North Bay!”
“Over the years I have had many memorable meals and enjoyed exceptional events at this beautiful club. However, an incident on Friday night was beyond the pale. Three of us (2 Asian women and a Caucasian man) were chatting and laughing next to the dessert table at the seafood buffet. I was in a blue cocktail dress, our host in a dinner jacket, and our friend was dressed in black. A member, Mrs. Miller, barged in on our conversation glaring us, shouting "What is this, a cocktail party? My husband still waiting for his coffee!" The three of us were shocked and as our jaws hit the ground, she continued, "Don't you work here?!" I managed to blurt out "No!" Mrs. Miller stormed off without her coffee. A bit later, staff who witnessed this confrontation apologized to us and said this was normal for this particular member. I hope someone reports her to the club and she gets called out on her racism. Even if I had been staff, abusing the people who work there cannot be acceptable. She ruined an otherwise wonderful evening.”
“Lovely venue and planning team! Having almost everything in-house was well worth the additional cost; I was much less stressed than other friends. The venue cleaned up so well! It looked very high end.”
“Such a lovely place to fall in love with ballet! My preschooler absolutely adores her classes and teachers here, and as a parent I love how easy it is to schedule classes and makeups through the online portal.”
