:: THE SPACE ::
Café Du Nord is not only the hottest live music venue in town — it is “one of San Francisco’s hippest watering holes” according to SOMA Magazine. Or, as Rolling Stone Magazine puts it, "located in a former speak-easy, this dark-wooded, subterranean watering hole is the perfect place to lose a few decades over a batch of martinis."
 The Du Nord is located in the landmark Swedish-American building in the Upper Market district of San Francisco. Built in 1907 by Swedish craftsmen, it retains its Victorian period interiors, featuring original faux decorated paneling and wainscoting, and a forty-foot hand carved mahogany bar. A truly memorable room for your private event.
The club is comprised of the Showroom and the Main Bar Room, which can be opened up into a single large space or left fully or partially separated depending on your needs.
 The focal point of our Main Bar Room is our original 40-foot mahogany bar. The Main Bar Room also contains a raised platform with a pool table and accompanying seating — an enjoyable diversion for your guests. For more formal occasions, the pool table can be capped and draped.
The Showroom is our music room, complete with stage, lighting and a state-of-the-art sound system. It has a private bar and plenty of space for dancing. Use of the stage is available for a separate fee and includes a full sound and lighting system operated by one of our professional sound technicians.

BAR ARRANGEMENTS
Groups planning a private event may offer their guests an open bar with a full range of beverages or a more limited selection to help control costs. You may always set a maximum limit for your bar total or simply let your guests purchase their own drinks with regular "cash bar" or "cash and carry" cocktail service.
OTHER BEVERAGE OPTIONS
We will gladly work with you to accommodate all of your beverage requirements. Wine may be purchased by the bottle and offered on the table or buffet. A coffee and tea station can be arranged to compliment a dessert or cake table. Champagne toasts are easily organized with servers distributing pre-purchased champagne by the glass to your guests just before toast-time. Juices and other non-alcoholic beverages may also be offered from the bar or on a buffet.
:: OTHER SERVICES AND CONTACTS ::
We offer one-stop private event services. In addition to catering, our services include entertainment, décor, floral, wedding planning, and a full service staff dedicated to making your event a memorable success.
