ERIA First Birthdays
Celebrate your child's first birthday at ERIA: private venues in San Francisco's Marina and Sausalito with flexible layouts and indoor-outdoor space.
First birthday party venue, San Francisco
A first birthday is as much a party for the grandparents, cousins and old friends who fill the room as it is for the baby. Finding a place that holds all of them, without feeling like a rented banquet hall, is usually the hardest part of the planning.
ERIA runs private event spaces in San Francisco's Marina and on the Sausalito waterfront. Book one and the room is yours alone, with a team that plans and designs the day alongside you and bakes its own cakes.
Two venues, two moods
ERIA Marina is at 2300 Chestnut Street, a city-side room with a full bar, marble banquet tables and custom lighting. It holds 400 standing or 150 seated indoors, and 500 standing or 200 seated once the outdoor area is counted.
ERIA Sausalito is at 562 Bridgeway, just north of the Golden Gate Bridge, with panoramic bay views, indoor-outdoor flow and a full commercial kitchen for up to 350 guests.
Where to host a first birthday in San Francisco
Families usually weigh a restaurant back room, a park pavilion and a private event space. A private venue sits in the middle: you set the schedule, the music and the guest list, and nobody else shares the room.
If you would like to see the Marina or Sausalito before deciding, book a site visit and walk through it with the team.
Planning, design and cake under one roof
ERIA offers full-service planning and design, so the table styling, florals and flow of the afternoon can be handled by one team. Our signature cakes are baked by ERIA, and you can browse them on the cakes page.
Details that vary by party, such as outside vendors, decor rules and daytime hours, are best settled with the team when you inquire.
