Welcome

Born and raised in Chicago, this is our first out-of-area location, Emporium San Francisco brings games, drinks, and music back to the historic Harding Theater a 100-year-old historic San Francisco venue.

We offer the largest selection of arcade games, pinball, pool, air hockey, shuffleboard, skee ball, super chexx, foosball, as well as live DJs, a movie screen, and a full stage with live musical performances. Awesome choice for birthday and company parties and groups of all sizes.

Group Info, Guidelines & Rules:

Free Table Reservations

  • ALL MEMBERS of the group must be at least 21 years old with a valid photo ID on their person to be allowed entry.
  • For most groups 30 or less, the best option is to book a few tables.
  • Free reservations for groups are for 40 or less people.
  • Tables are free of charge and no minimum tab is required.

    • Most people spend their time walking around playing games and things at Emporium, not sitting down. Trust us on this one!
    • For free table reservations, Emporium will select your tables based on party size and availability. We will provide as much space as possible depending on the size of the group but no specific amount of space is guaranteed. We will do our best to accommodate requests but make no promises.
    • Paid space rentals are available to groups that would like a specific reserved area and/or amount of seats.
  • A group representative must show up on time & check in with the bar staff to claim the table reservation. A party member is also required to let us know when you’re finished with the space.
