Right in the heart of San Francisco, you’ll find The Box SF. A historic building dating back to the early 20th century, we’re also something more. We’re a one-of-a-kind venue for hosting unforgettable events of all types and sizes.
One of the event types we love to host is exclusive wine and dine tasting events. For clients looking to indulge in gourmet flavors while enjoying the unique ambiance of our versatile spaces, we just can’t be beat. From wine connoisseurs to food enthusiasts, you’ll impress clients or guests with an extraordinary culinary event. And The Box SF is the perfect setting to do it. Here’s why.
Historic Venue, Timeless Charm
The Box SF is housed in what used to be a printing plant for the famous William Randolph Hearst. Lovingly restored to its original glory, today it radiates timeless charm and historic beauty. We offer the perfect blend of classic elegance and modern amenities — from the original wood to the vintage decor and indulgent atmosphere.
What makes The Box SF truly special is the sense of history that seems to radiate from every space. Every corner tells a story, and that rich history adds depth and character to your tasting event. Whether it’s a small, intimate gathering or a big, elaborate event, we’ll offer you the perfect backdrop to make your guests feel comfortable and inspired.
Tailored Spaces for Unforgettable Experiences
At The Box SF, we know that no two tasting events are the same. That’s why we love offering a variety of spaces that can be tailored to your specific needs. Whether it’s small and intimate or big and boisterous, we’ll accommodate your event to a T. Here are some of the unique spaces that help us do it.
The Main Event Space
This spacious area is ideal for hosting large-scale wine and dine events, where multiple tasting stations or a formal seated dinner might be required. The high ceilings and abundant natural light create a visually stunning environment that enhances the elegance of the occasion.
The Hidden Speakeasy
For those looking to host a more exclusive and intimate tasting event, our hidden speakeasy is the perfect choice. Behind a secret door and down a dimly lit staircase, guests are transported to a Prohibition-era setting — complete with world-class wine collection that can be included in your package.
The Boardroom
If you’re planning a corporate or executive wine and dine event, our boardroom offers a more formal setting. This space is perfect for pairing presentations with tasting experiences, allowing you to blend business with pleasure in a professional yet inviting environment, and boasts the largest/oldest dining and meeting table in the United States at 339 years old!
Curated Wine and Culinary Brilliance
At the heart of any wine tasting is, of course, the wine and food. At the Box SF, we have right in-house some of San Francisco’s top sommeliers, wineries, chefs and caterers to bring you expertly curated tasting experiences.
Whether you want a formal four-course meal or a more casual walkabout tasting event, we’ll help you design a menu to delight your guests.
