Ten years ago this year @missmore8 hosted the city’s best party on the 21st floor. We just had to get her back.
Join us and Juanita MORE! for PRIDE this June for Happy Hours every Thursday plus our Brunch Dance Party on the 21st… if you can wait ;)
This stunning restaurant is situated in one of the World’s Top 500 Hotels (Travel + Leisure) and One of the Top Hotels in San Francisco (Condé Nast). The Beacon Grand is a majestic historic property that’s almost a century old. You can feel the 1920s glamor as soon as you walk through the front doors. It’s a special spot to take in a slice of San Francisco history.
The Post Room definitely holds its own at the grand hotel. Named by Time Out as one of the top restaurants in San Francisco, the American French brasserie with high vaulted ceilings features a beautiful new design with calming blue interior adorned with vibrant, eclectic artwork. But they’ve still maintained its history in the “hidden library” whiskey lounge, where you’ll find the hotel’s preserved ornate ceiling from 1928! This speakeasy-type space is not to be missed.
As for their new food & drink menu, I was really impressed. The Ahi Tuna Tartare is super refreshing and the Caviar Bites are a tiny burst of flavor. I particularly loved their big Raviolo, The Post Room Burger, and Bolognese Pasta. For dessert, their sorbet and champagne is really fun! It was my first time having a dessert floating in champagne.
For cocktails, we had their Rainbow’s End and Anna “The Muse”. Both were delicious.
The Post Room has Happy Hour Sunday-Thursday from 1:30-4pm.

Something I’m seeing more of with couples these days is that the florals are intentionally chosen to work with the venue.
It used to be more common to see a couple fall in love with a floral palette on Pinterest and bring it into the space. And sometimes that works. But more and more, I’m seeing couples think about a cohesive vision. The venue is chosen for its architecture or landscape, the lighting, the existing colors in the carpet or the chairs or the walls. Then, the couple and their planner build their florals and rentals in a way that perfectly complements the venue.
David and Hyein’s Beacon Grand wedding is a good example of what that looks like. The hotel has ornate gold ceilings, ivory paneling, velvet chairs. Adding soft, elegant blooms with hues of soft lavender, blush, periwinkle was the perfect floral decor for this elegant venue.
The result is a room that feels intentional from floor to ceiling. Share this with your florist / planner if you’re in the design stages of your wedding!

Newly refreshed yet instantly familiar, The Post Room is a café, bar, and brasserie shaped by history and designed for the way the city gathers today. From morning coffee and power lunches to oysters, martinis, and long unhurried weekend brunches, it moves with the rhythm of the day. It's a place to gather, linger, and return to.
