The guest list is set and the excitement is building, now, you need to find the right birthday party venues to match the moment. If you're searching for a private dining room in downtown Palo Alto, a lounge in Stanford, or a rooftop terrace in Menlo Park, the Bay Area has many options that you can choose from. Go for casual and stylish restaurants, high-energy and fun bars, or something in between. The only mistake? Waiting too long to book. Great spots fill up fast, but with Tagvenue, you can find and secure the best birthday venues without the back-and-forth. Make it official—book your space today.
You can choose from restaurants, hotel event spaces, and wineries. Restaurants like Zola + BarZola and Burma Ruby Burmese Cuisine provide a lively atmosphere with delicious food, while hotel venues like Park James Hotel have more private and flexible event spaces. It does not get any better than La Honda Winery in North Fair Oaks when it comes to its unique setting for wine lovers.
Most venues allow some decoration, but the rules vary. Restaurants may let you bring balloons, table centerpieces, and signage but might not allow confetti or anything that could damage the space. If you have a specific theme in mind, ask in advance! Some places even help with custom decor packages to make planning easier.
Want to keep costs down? Weekday bookings or afternoon events can be way cheaper than prime Friday and Saturday nights. Some venues have lower minimum spends for lunchtime parties or offer discounts for early reservations.
If you’re keeping an eye on your budget, there are plenty of affordable spots. Some restaurants offer a flat hire fee, like Dinah’s Garden Hotel, which charges $250 per session for a private space. If you prefer a space with event packages, NM Café at Neiman Marcus starts at $42 per person, making it great for a small gathering. If you’re looking for a minimum spend option, Reposado offers bookings from $3,500, which can work well for a group dinner with drinks.
