Events Lounge and Space in North San Diego in the suburb of Scripps Ranch
we needed including some tables and chairs and fridge and freezer space as needed.. The kitchen area was spacious enough for a pseudo bar and a buffet style food set up. The venue was big enough for our group of approximately 50 people and there was also a patio...

Rad Tiki Bar with Nautical and Tropical Decor
Bar itself is quite honestly, awesome. It is fully adorned with the coolest décor and ambiance, all cleverly arranged around a bar stand and pub seats. While enjoying the tiki bar, guests are surrounded by nostalgic adornments and surprises from another era. Where else, can you sip your Mai Tai...

Beautiful Outdoor Oasis
relocated to make room). The host has Bluetooth speakers inside/out which were great and they helped us connect our music. There is an outdoor bar area, wine fridge, beverage cooler, and access to a fridge in the garage. Overall, this space is a great place for a small-mid size...

Intimate Studio Space In The Heart of North Park
really straight forward. Clean up was seamless with the dumpsters so close. Would love to rent again! Only thing is the music at the bar next door is loud until 10pm. You couldn’t hear it with the music we had so it was no problem but if you don...

Space was really nice & worked perfectly for the event. Was slightly hard to find but we made it work! The volume of the bar right next door was really loud but nothing you can do about that! Overall everyone was really nice who helped us and communicated well...

the wedding! From the photo booth area they created… to the bonfire tables that turned into a smore-fest with great conversation… to the bar area that also turned into smore-city… to the dancing area, to the mimosa bar area, to the koi pond area to the lit torches...

location. It was the perfect place to host our annual Christmas party. I was a little hesitant about the location being next to the bar because of some reviews but totally opposite from what they said! The space is right next to Pretzels & Pints the staff there were really friendly...

Modern & Industrial Event Studio in La Mesa
anything moved or any furniture removed from the space, and were easy to work with. The space was clean, plenty large, had a sound bar that was easy to connect to with our phone, a projector (we didn’t need but it was available), and was a great space. We...

Intimate Studio Space In The Heart of North Park
spacious. It was nice to have access to a bathroom and sink in the space. The location is hidden and located next to a bar and parking is a bit challenging in the area for guests. The bar is a bit noisy. We did have a breathwork component to our...
