    We came here for the Sing Tao Event. First time at this place. It's a big facility with a big front…read moreyard and a lot of spaces.

    What a wonderful facility!…read more This building is very new (only ~1.5 years old) and absolutely beautiful! You walk into a large naturally lit lobby, with local event flyers and news on display, as well as Millbrae branded merch (hats, shirts, etc) for sale. There is a reception desk with staff there to help and answer any questions. I came specifically to pick up a custom SF Giants Kleenex box that I ordered at the recent Millbrae Art & Wine Festival. We were greeted by Laurie, who was very friendly and told us all about what they had to offer at the Rec. Center. Just behind some glass doors near the lobby, is a game room. This is mostly targeted towards kids, with a giant TV and various video game systems to play with. We saw around a dozen kids hanging and playing in this area as we walked by. As you continue down on the first floor, there are classrooms, conference rooms, and even a giant hall that can be rented in full (or half) for private events! They also have a kitchen connected, which is helpful for events serving food. There are several clean and accessible bathrooms, as well as lots of fun historic photos on display. They have a Fitness Center with various equipment, and space for aerobic classes. There's also a room dedicated entirely to Ping Pong! If you get hungry or thirsty, there are two vending machines with drinks and snacks, and several water fountain/refill stations throughout. There is also an entire upstairs area. In addition to private rooms, there is a "Senior Lounge" which has comfortable seating, a large TV, and a half-kitchen. There is an outdoor patio connected up top with over a dozen lounge type chairs to enjoy some fresh air. They also have space for outdoor activities for people of all ages. There are multiple playgrounds for kids, in addition to multiple tennis courts and a large field. The Rec. Department also oversees many other fields (school and other) and a skate park, according to their website! If you live in (or near) Millbrae, you gotta check out this Rec. Center! There is a ton to do, it's super bright and clean, and the staff is all very friendly and welcoming! I'm looking forward to coming back again and utilizing some of these amazing features!

    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
