I attended a baby shower here on a Sunday and everyone kept on asking me where this venue was from…read morethe pictures. I've previously attended children's parties at Washington Park where they have a huge playground nearby. There are plenty of bathrooms here and there's even a parking garage which closes at a certain time. There is a parking lot and if you can't find parking there's street parking around the neighborhood. Beautiful facility, huge kitchen, plenty of space, even a stage in the Sequoia Room. I heard it can be pretty pricey and you get a better rate as a resident of Burlingame. You do a walkthrough with staff at the end of your event. You're not responsible for putting away the chairs or tables but you are responsible to remove everything and sweep the floor.

a really beautifully redesigned building, with it's grand re-opening in summer 2022. i came to tour…read morethe building and the classrooms/studios since i would be teaching there starting in the fall and was amazed by how sleek and modern the facility was. there are two floors of rooms and open spaces to be used, as well as outdoor space that opens into/connects to washington park. fast forward 2.5 yrs, i have been regularly teaching senior fitness classes here and absolutely love this new space. each room has built in controls for temperature control, including a control to activate the overhead fans. most rooms have access to an outdoor space/patio, which also allows us to prop open the door for natural, fresh air. several rooms have tv screens, and speakers, perfect for a lecture or presentation. the front desk staff is always helpful, and there are usually at least 2-3 folks manning the desk in case anyone needs anything. guests may park in the dedicated parking lot or in the covered parking structure. however, on a busy day, when many programs are happening, it's hard to get a spot so i resort to street parking, which is always free and plentiful. super close to downtown burlingame, so i often hop over for a coffee or lunch after teaching!

WOW! My husband and I blindly rented the patio at Lucie Stern for our wedding welcome event as we…read morewanted to host all of our guests who were coming for near and far. We were looking for a reasonably priced place where we could bring in food and booze to make it financially possible for us. This ended up being an amazing option that allowed us to take advantage of the usual great PA weather. Our wedding was in July and we spent $0 on décor and it was totally fine as the patio was SURROUNDED by blooming shrubs and flowers. It was the perfect size for a cocktail/casual buffet style open house dinner for 80-100 people. It didn't feel to bare and oversized. We set up food stations in each corner along with a bar which encouraged folks to circulate around the space. We booked this venue without having seen it and were really floored by how beautiful and transporting the setting was - it felt like a little garden that could have been in Spain or Italy or Mexico with the red shingles and all. The main downside of this venue is that it is very popular (book early), is very DIY (hire a planner, it's worth it as there is a LOT of coordination required to pull this off), doesn't allow hard liquor, and doesn't come with a rain plan. While this is a slim chance of rain, it's tough to not have any backup plan for a big event. Note that our event was in the evening so sun could be an issue earlier in the day. We rented the adjacent interior room as a plan B which my friends ended up using for their choreographed dance practice so it came in handy...but do be prepared to shell out some bucks for a space you likely won't use (and for your peace of mind). While the liquor parameters were annoying, to be honest we didn't to get too drunk the day before the wedding and then be hungover for the big day. Our wedding venue also didn't allow liquor so instead of serving straight wine, we came up with aperitifs to put a twist on the offering (ie aperol spritz, kir royale, white port and tonic, etc). Highly recommend working with Denise of Denise Lillie Engagements who made this event come to life. I relied on her for everything down to the décor (most of which was lent to us by her). She recommended great bar tenders that helped with set up / breakdown and perfectly poured our custom drinks (we sent specific recipes for this and they executed perfectly). Lucie Stern is a great venue for a wedding or large family event that allows you to bring in alcohol at cost though does require planning (and a planner). We highly recommend it and think it's great value.

It is a Beautiful place for any small to mid size events . It is in the heart of Palo Alto.read more

A love letter to the Fil Am commmunity is the best way to describe KKC! In a relatively small space…read moreyou can find so much packed inside, from art on the walls, to children's' books and gifts created by local Filipino American artists and creators, to learning about local orgs to get involved in or resources for mental health, know your rights, and how to support kababayans. They have a range of milk teas for $10 and popular ones include the turon milk tea (which truly does taste like it!) and mango float. They are sweet but delightful to sip while you chill at the cafe whether you have work to do or want to indulge in a creative project. The cost of the boba goes toward fundraising for youth initiatives and other community needs! The times i have visited they've hosted free pop ups and events like a clothing swap and dessert tasting. Wifi also worked great! They are lovely advocates for community and also recently just started a community pantry. Check them out or follow them on socials for events!!

My daughter and I decided to stop by Kapwa to try their drinks, which were on promotion for half…read moreprice ($5) last Friday - June 12, Philippine Independence Day. We arrived past 4pm and ordered four drinks: two Mango Floats, a Turon Milk Tea, and a Lychee, Passion Fruit & Calamansi Tea. Although the store didn't appear busy and I was the only customer ordering drinks at the time (my daughter was waiting in the car), the wait ended up being much longer than expected. After about 15 minutes, one of the staff members approached me and apologized for the delay, explaining that they were missing an ingredient but assuring me that the drinks would be ready soon. I appreciated the communication and courtesy. However, it still took roughly 30 minutes from the time I ordered before we finally received our drinks. What made the experience more disappointing was that they had also run out of straws, so none were available with the drinks. In addition, the drinks themselves did not quite meet our expectations. Some tasted watered down, others seemed overly creamy, and none of the drinks included boba. I'm not sure if the missing ingredient mentioned earlier was related, but it may have contributed to the overall experience. While I appreciated the staff's professionalism and willingness to keep customers informed, the long wait, inventory shortages, and drink quality made this visit less enjoyable than we had hoped. I would be willing to give Kapwa another try in the future, as this may have been an unfortunate off day.
