Description
For generations, the classic Beaux Arts-style Legion of Honor Museum has been revered as a favorite backdrop for movies, weddings and special events. Situated in Lincoln Park, it enjoys an enviable location overlooking the headlands, Golden Gate Bridge, and the Pacific Ocean. Hidden within this famous landmark is the Legion of Honor Café, a perfect venue in its own right for exclusive events, romantic receptions and business functions.
The café occupies a private niche on the garden level of the museum, with a view of the park’s numerous cypress trees and Monterey pines. Its granite patio, shaded by a canopy of mature olive trees, provides a classically inspired setting for an al fresco celebration.
Indoors, large picture windows and French doors infuse the restaurant with natural light, accentuating the café‘s high ceiling, hardwood floors, glazed plaster walls, and antiqued mirror panels. The overall effect echoes the airy, refined ambiance of the museum’s galleries. Sliding silver-leaf doors can divide the 3,000-square-foot space into a variety of configurations, making it equally suitable for large or small parties.
Complementing the Legion of Honor Café‘s elegant architectural and natural surroundings is the excellent cuisine. In-house catering is provided by Bon Appetit, a socially conscious catering company dedicated to local, sustainable foods and truly delectable "perfect fit" menus. Committed to bringing you the best ingredients, authentic flavors and seamless service, Bon Appetit makes every one of their events an unforgettable success.
