MAKE YOUR MEETING EVEN MORE MEMORABLE BY HIGHLIGHTING SAN FRANCISCO'S UNIQUE AND VARIED DINING EXPERIENCES. TREAT ATTENDEES TO THE BEST OF THE CITY'S CULINARY OFFERINGS WITH SIGNATURE SAN FRANCISCO FOOD AND BEVERAGE OPTIONS FROM THESE LOCAL FAVORITES. SAN FRANCISCO SOURDOUGH Sourdough bread has a distinct and storied past in San Francisco. During the California Gold Rush, a natural undiscovered yeast emerged in the city’s earliest bakeries, thanks to the area’s unique climate. The Boudin family built a recipe around it and Boudin Bakery was born. Treat attendees to a taste of the city’s history with clam chowder in a bread bowl over a working lunch or grab-and-go signature sandwiches from the iconic San Francisco bakery. DIM SUM Look no further, because you have found the perfect dish for social events and networking sessions: Chinese Dim Sum. The small bite-sized portions of deliciousness will not only wow attendees with flavor but will incorporate the San Francisco Chinatown experience into your meeting. Dumpling Time offers a smorgasbord of options, including an assortment of Xi’an dumplings, gyoza dumplings and even dessert buns, so your attendees can truly try a little bit of everything. INTERNATIONAL CUISINE San Francisco offers an expansive collection of global cuisines. Take attendees on a cultural journey of gastronomical delight at International Smoke, the culinary creation of Michael Mina and Ayesha Curry. Inspire attendees with barbecue flavors and aromas from around the world with the restaurant’s range of catering options – everything from boxed lunches to multi-course meals with appetizers, entrees, sides and dessert – or private dining options for up to 120 guests. CIOPPINO The tomato-based seafood stew has been a staple on San Francisco tables since the late 1800s. At Fisherman's Wharf, on its own private pier, Scoma's serves up generous bowls of this delicious dish, along with other seafood favorites. With outdoor seating, fantastic views of the Golden Gate Bridge, and flexible private dining spaces that can accommodate groups from 16 to 75, Scoma's is a wonderful option for group waterfront dining. CRAFT BEER Take attendees to San Francisco’s original craft brewer, Anchor Brewery, for a memorable outing. Dating back to the California Gold Rush, Anchor’s roots in San Francisco run deep. Between their rich history and the art deco architecture of their building, attendees will be transported back to the early days when Anchor was just beginning to gain recognition. The Anchor Taproom and Brew Hall offer space for up to 450 guests and can serve up to 12 different drafts of their award-winning beers for your group. LOCAL TALENT If you’re looking to pair dinner with a show for your group, look no further than Old Skool Café in the Bayview neighborhood. Run by local youth, this jazz-themed supper club allows attendees to support the community while enjoying international soul food dishes and live music. Though they can do offsite catering, we recommend visiting their beautiful venue, which transports up to 70 guests back to the glamorous Roaring Twenties with art deco furnishings and design.
