On the expensive side for breakfast, paid around $50 for myself. Breakfast was good though, comfortable seating, not many people around 10am. Coffee was great. Staff were pleasant and helpful. read more

Mixed experienced at Post Room in the Beacon Grand Hotel. Service and venue were a "5," drinks were a "4," appetizers were a "5," entrées were a "3." Highlights were the duck croquettes, rolls, and affogato. Biggest low light was the pappardelle, drowning in acidic, tomato sauce with little meat. read more

This is a solid hotel bar & restaurant. The atmosphere is so cool. Really well decorated, while keeping the old charm of the hotel. So pretty. So much detail in everything, lots to look at. We had drinks here a few times throughout our stay at the Beacon. On Friday night I ordered a drink and the bartender suggested something he felt was even better so I said sure! It was fantastic and he was really nice. Other than that one bartender, we both felt that all the other waitstaff left a little to be desired as the were not super friendly. It was nice that they kind of left you alone and let you enjoy your drinks or food, checking in every once in a while. There were just not really any smiles or a whole lot to make you feel really welcome. It made us wonder if this was because the 20% tip was already included. They weren't as forthcoming about that here as they were at Starlite either. That being said, they were as attentive as you want your wait staff to be, and the drinks and food were great. The cheese plate was delicious and we also had breakfast one morning and we enjoyed that. read more

Had a chance to relax at one of the tables here at the Beacon Grand's Lobby Bar known as the Post Room. Unfortunately we did not order anything as we were getting ready for a presentation with the hotel but would have liked to have had the opportunity to order a drink and sit at the bar. Lived the interior design while maintaining some of the treatments when it was formerly the Sir Francis Drake Hotel. read more

The restaurant is located up the stairs directly above their beautiful lobby. We ordered the grilled Spanish octopus with roasted farm potatoes, ancho chili, and Marcona almonds for appetizers. For entrees, we got the butter poached Maine lobster with citrus ricotta lobster ravioli, butternut squash, and sage, and the cioppino with salmon, mussels, clams, Gulf shrimp, and octopus in their classic red sauce. For sides, we ordered the French fries with their lemon creme fraiche and the grilled asparagus. Finally, we finished off with the espresso panna cotta garnished with cookie crumble and caramel as well as their strawberry cheesecake with shortbread crumble and basil. Presentation on very dish was beautiful and everything tasted as good as it presented. Service was excellent. Overall, it was a really nice and enjoyable dinner. read more

This is the grand beacon hotels in house restaurant and cafe and bar. I got a cocktail at the bar last night -- the vesper -- it was $20 and definitely packed a punch. The gin definitely overpowered the vodka and I couldn't finish it. The ambiance is nice though. Try to grab a table along the side closest to the stairwell, as those seats have plush velvety seating with lots of lumbar support pillows. My server was friendly but it did seem like he was the only one working all the tables so he was stretched a little thin. Also they have long hours -- open 7am to 11pm everyday! It's worth a try since this part of union square is a bit of a food desert late at night. read more

The Post Room - To go breakfast prices - Cocktail Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

I was compelled to write something about this place because my experience was fantastic. Right when we walked in, my girls and I were first greeted by the sweetest doorman. When we walked up to the hostess, Sokaina, she was so welcoming and happily seated us to our table. When we were seated, Jairzhino was our server and he was AMAZING! He was so accommodating, attentive and intentional with our table. We told them it was our birthdays and they immediately offered champagne! However, I told them I'm not ordering any alcohol. When the Jairzhino brought the champagne, Sokaina brought me apple cider so I wouldn't feel left out and I that truly was the kindest gesture to me! We ordered the fries, house made rolls and caviar bites, and was wonderful! I truly had to write this to highlight how incredible Jairzhino and Sokaina are because they made our experience memorable! read more

We had another absolutely fantastic dining experience at The Post Room, located inside the beautiful Beacon Grand Hotel. Executive Chef Jose and his entire team truly went above and beyond. The food was outstanding, with first-class presentation and flavors that impressed every guest at our table. We enjoyed a four-course dinner, and each course was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully executed. The cocktails were perfectly crafted, and even the mocktails were exceptional, which our group really appreciated. Hosting a large group can be challenging, but the staff handled it effortlessly--attentive, professional, and warm throughout the entire evening. The ambiance was elegant yet inviting, fitting our celebration perfectly. After dinner, we continued the night upstairs at the iconic Starlite Lounge, which was the perfect way to end the evening. Our group also stayed onsite overnight, and the accommodations were excellent, making the entire experience seamless from start to finish. This dinner was especially meaningful as we were celebrating our son's 30th birthday, and thanks to the incredible team at the Beacon Grand, it was a celebration we will never forget. We are truly looking forward to sharing this fantastic experience with more of our family and friends in the future. Highly recommend for special occasions, group events, or an elevated dining experience in San Francisco. Don't miss out on this hidden gem! read more

Stick with drinks and appetizers. Loved the ambiance but the entrees across the board were horrible.

Such a beautiful place. Food was delicious. And service is absolutely amazing! I came here for weekend afternoon tea. Tea service is $105 per person. The set includes choice of Guinigi brut or rose, choice of tea, two scones, one mini muffin, four tea sandwiches and four mini desserts along with some fruits and accoutrements. I love that for your selection of tea. Your tea expert will roll the cart over and offer in depth information and have you smell all the teas. That way you will find the perfect choice for you! Your food is nicely presented in three tiers with scones on the first, sweets on the second and savory on the top. Food size might not seem huge but I left fullllll. Everything is delicious and there is not a thing I disliked (a very rare occasion as a picky eater). While all bites are delicious I wanna point out a few stand outs. The ube scone is fire! The lobster roll is just chefs kiss. And the watermelon macaron (I didn't know that would work so well?!). The Tea expert/my wonderful server Tessa is so amazing. Her service is above and beyond to make sure I have everything in place. She is observant and comes over to check on me at the perfect moments. I can't say enough good things about the service here. I love the vibes. The decor is elegant and I love the tall ceilings. If you come at the perfect time you might catch live piano performances. The price point is high. But I think it definitely reflects on the quality of food, excellent service and atmosphere. It might not be a super frequent thing but definitely a treat (we all deserve a little treat here and there~). This experience is very worth it in my humble opinion. I came here for tea this time but I'm already eyeing some dishes and drinks to try next time. I look forward to my next visit! read more

Beautiful place to come have drinks and mingle, but not so much the food. They have a great executive lunch set for $28. I had the French onion soup and pesto penne pasta combo. Sounds good, but soup was adequate, but the pesto sauce was to watery & bland. Will try the burger next time. I will definitely come back for drinks or have a business meeting, but save my appetite elsewhere. read more

Loved the ambiance--beautifully remodeled while still keeping its old-school charm. The staff was very professional and polite. We only tried tea and dessert, so I can't speak to the full menu. The tea was a regular tea bag quality rather than the higher-end blends. The cheesecake had great flavor, but it lacked the "cake" component I was craving, and the portion was quite small. read more

The menu looks great. Sadly, the day bartender oyster blocked me. He was very snarky about everything I (and others) ordered. He told me that they were "out of oysters" while he was the only bartender. When the evening person came in I asked again for oysters... yeah, they had oysters. Hopefully I was there on a bad day because the menu and ambiance are great! read more

Great decor, terrible food. We laughed at the one singular ravioli, but cried at the terrible cauliflower curry, very undercooked, underseasoned and they have no chili flakes or hot sauce available. It has been a while since we have had such terrible food. Party of 9, a variety of dishes, all bad except the bolognese. Do not recommend. Terrible vegetarian options, no menu marking for gluten free, etc. read more

I love espresson Martini's and I have to say they make one of the best I have ever had. It is unique and not a standard Espresso martini which makes it even more special. Whenever my husband and I make it to the city- we have to stop by-even if it is for just the martini. Oh, the food is good also, but the martini- off the charts! read more

The restaurant is inside the Beacon. Beautifully decorated. A very peaceful ambiance. When we got there they were just opening. I wanted to try it as I had 2 vouchers for drinks and saw they had an espresso martini (not available). I was disappointed the drinks were only good for the mimosa or Prosecco. The Prosecco was good. My friend ordered a chicken Caesar salad, without meat $18 with meat they added $12. I thought it was overpriced as it was a small appetizer salad. I ordered a medium cooked burger, this was close to $30. The burger was perfect to me. Flavorful, delish and a nice size. The fries were flavorful but could be a little more crunchy. Our bill was $73 total (no tip) it included a service charge of $12... The service was good. He was nice, not going out of his way to talk. The food came pretty quickly after we ordered. read more

Located inside the Beacon Grand hotel (which we loved), this restaurant/bar was very nice, inviting and showed potential. There were four of us for breakfast, two adults, two kids (9 & 10). We had an odd interaction with staff when we were trying to be seated. He wanted to seat us in the section only for those using cards for breakfast included with our stay. I informed him that we weren't sure if we wanted to order from the card and wanted to be seated for coffee while we waited on our 4th party member and review the menu. He hesitantly sat us. I ordered a cafe latte- beautiful. It was fantastic. Our 4th party showed up and we proceeded to order. The food was fantastic. However, the service wrecked the whole experience. We sat unattended for quite some time. Our meals came and while we ate, we noticed several other parties (adults) come and go with ease. People were tended to, received their checks, and went about their way. One lady requested Bailey's in her coffee but was told she cannot have that - she stated she'd had the same order just one week prior. Not sure what that was about. When we had been sitting, not eating, not drinking, and looking about.... No one checked on us. I had to turn around and awkwardly stare down a different waiter to be addressed and receive our check. $125 for 4 people's breakfast and an awful experience. We left no tip as there was already some gratuity built into the check. It was an awful experience and we did not return. read more

Christmas brunch was horrific. Salomon the manager was unhelpful in letting us sit in a larger table explaining we were a party of 2 and a 4 top was held for many reservations. Throughout our time there and after we were leaving numerous 4 top were unused. We asked our waiter Willian to please send the food out in courses which he agreed he could do. Apps, salads, started out that way but the mains all came together. William apologized and explained he asked for the mains to come in courses but the kitchen ignored the request. I had asked a busboy for a side of clamto or tomato juice and he told me to ask the server. I then went to the bar and asked for clamato or tomato juice to have one of 2 managers present say they didn't have clamato juice. I had asked for tomato juice instead from both managers only to be ignored. Finally William came to our table and was able to bring the requested juice. Why would a guest have to ask for a side of juice from 4 people including 2 managers only to be ignored? On to the food. The duck salad had 2 shreds of duck. The sole, prime rib, ham and veggies were all cold. The truffle potatoes had ZERO truffle flavor or aroma and were the consistency of a soup. The desserts were uninspired, dry and just sad. This was an abysmal experience with a feeling of disregard from the manager Solomon from the beginning. William was the only person to seem interested in us having a good experience. Just a terrible feeling eating at the Post Room on Christmas. read more

The reviews I read were really positive so we decided to give this place a try when we first arrived in San Francisco. This was my first meal in this city, so I don't want to be too harsh , but I must. The menu has good variety. We started with the 'famous house rolls'. $10 for 3 rolls and "honey butter'. Fine but not worth the cost of something that I think should be complimentary. I ordered mushroom risotto. It was tasty, but runny. Semi-unappealing. The burger and fries my husband ordered were fine. No complaints! So the food was okay. The service was very friendly , but slow. We sat for a food 20 minutes after the meal was cleared away and didn't see the server again. We had to flag her to get the check. Based on previous reviews I expected a speak- easy vibe. Not the case. It was so loud I had to keep asking my husband to repeat what he was saying because I couldn't hear him over the sound of a mediocre piano player/singer. I felt like I was sitting here in a gymnasium listening to a high school audition. On a positive note, the best thing about this place were the cocktails. They were well-crafted and tasty. read more

Popped in for a quick drink after work. The environment was great and the old fashioned was excellent. I'll definitely be back soon.

Very nice welcome by the Barman who made a delicious Lemon martini for me , great taste and everything was spectacular, this is a very warm bar/restaurant at the Beacon Grand . I also ordered some bar food , a cheese plate , what a nice selection of cheese and toast , just perfect with the drinks . Please try out the The Post Room you won't be disappointed. read more

It's new so I'll cut then slack by giving 4 stars. The service was fine but not great. The maple butter that came with the buns was scrumptious. I enjoyed the whole fish, well cooked and presented. But the pasta used in the cannelloni was so smooth and lovely, I could eat that pasta all day. The real treat is the space, we were in the big room just off the main room, and it's pretty cool. read more

I am appalled at this restaurant. We chose this venue for dinner before a show because the pictures showed a beautiful ambiance. In reality the food was overcooked, or small, or overpriced. We started our meal ordering a bottle of sauv blanc. They didn't have the bottle on the menu so they brought out a Rodney strong ($10 bottle) but charged $72 (which we didn't know until we got the bill). We also ordered a bottle of cava sparkling wine. When opening the bottle, it overflowed all over the table. The server said he'd bring additional glasses to make up for the spilled wine but he never brought them--again, rediculous upsell on the booze. We ordered the branzino which came with so many bones it was inedible. We ordered the lobster ravioli which in the pictures had way more ravioli and way more lobster--it came out with 2 pieces of overcooked chewy lobster. We ordered the buratta which was too sweet. The highlight of the meal was the dinner roles which came out with 3 roles but were a party of 4. How many tables do you get with 3 guests?! Their was a mandatory 20% charge. read more

Ambiance: 5/5. Live music, dim lit room, and beautiful architecture. Really enjoyed dinner here Service: 2/5. This place is new, so things have to be ironed out. In my 2 hours at the restaurant I saw servers bring plates to the wrong table 4-6 times. I was there for over two hour because our order was probably forgotten and food came out almost 1.5 hrs after we ordered. After we said we would leave, they expedited the food Food: 1/5. Gf got food poisoning here. Fries were not great. The best dish was the roasted brussel sprouts. read more

They didn't insult us... so they don't get 1 star. But we were 1 of 2 tables on a Saturday... everything we ordered sucked (shaksukka, lobster Benedict, and Cobb salad). Somehow the one modification (over easy instead of sunny side up eggs) they didn't do. I would have sent it back but no one came over to check in on us. Plus that was the worse shakshukka dish I ever had, tasted like canned tomatoes. read more

The food is well above average, but make a reservation in hopes you can be seated away from the large and loud bar area.

Awful! STAY AWAY!! We went for high tea and what a joke! On the website it said it was $90 pp when we got there it was $105 then they charged us 20% mandatory " service fee" for AWFUL service and TERRIBLE food!! We have had " High tea" in England multiple times and this was nothing like it!! They cooked tiny pieces of tasteless bread. The deserts were not good and the little sandwiches were made with cheep wonder bread. I had to chase the waitress around because she left food off our shared plate because of some food only I did not like. The place seems run by an Asian couple who has never been to a high tea in their lives! Nearly $300 food bill for food that was cheep and poorly made! And a 20% service fee for horrible service. This is a JOKE and SO over priced I was not at all surprised to read it was new!! They will be out of business in no time!! Don't waste your money!!!! read more
