Dogpatch Studios

Nice event space. We came for the Remy Martin tasting event last night which was held throughout the entire building. The downstairs was spacious and had a bar and cocktail tables set up, displays of Remy everywhere, upstairs had a private conference room with a view of the city. The event coordinators decorated the space really nicely. We were given golden coins to order our Remy beverages, but as a fan of Cognac - the way I like it is neat. As you waited for your tour and tasting, they passed around Ahi Tuna, Smoked Duck and Steak appetizers. Luckily we waited enough to have many gold coins given to us.The overall event was fun and I got to try a lot of really fine cognac, but a lot of the time it's all about the location. Close to public transportation, plenty of parking and ample space to hold any event.

Had a company event here and it was fantastic. Large area and with 3 floors and different theme. Great food and good decors. Dance floor on bottom with multi ethnic theme. Karaoke on 2nd and 3rd had balcony and champaign. Really nicely done.

Came here for the Windows Phone Night Market. The organizers had people waiting outside in the cold for an additional 30 minutes before they started moving the line. The place was cold even with the 200+ people inside and the heaters on. The place didn't start feeling warm until reaching the top floor. It is a 3 story building with the other 2 floors being just a 3rd of the 1st floor size. Problem was the restroom is on the 1st floor. Could be great for a club where everyone is moving, or for an event on a warmer night.

Dogpatch Studios is THE perfect place in the city to host your special events. I can not say enough good things about Terry and his establishment. A Bubbles Boutique was lucky enough to secure the Third Floor for our Spring Fling Event. The tall ceilings, wood floors and open air fun industrial lofty feel provided an amazing atmosphere for everyone who attended. One of our attendees even asked if the space was available to buy!! - She would have LOVED to live there! The Third Floor showcases fantastic views of San Francisco and the bay. The huge wall-to-ceiling windows/skylight, let in great natural light allowing our photographer Eric Lau to take some beautiful shots of our product and all the guests that attended the event. The outdoor deck was also a great place for guests to hang out and enjoy bubbles and refreshments during a wonderful sunny afternoon.Access to the Third Floor was easy too, guests could either use the elevator or stairs. The elevator was also nice and roomy letting us fit up to 3 racks of clothes at a time when setting up everything. Parking in the neighborhood was also very convenient. Dogpatch Studios really has it all - it's a unique venue with great amenities and I would recommend using Dogpatch Studios for your next event. Terry thank you so much for making our Spring Fling Event a success!!

My nonprofit held their 7th Anniversary Gala at Dogpatch Studios with over 200 guests. The space was incredibly vast which allowed us to be as creative as we wanted to be. Terry and Junior were the most phenomenal hosts and they were extremely gracious and kind in going above and beyond to ensure we had what we needed. Working with them was just as good as the vastness of the space. Clean, concrete lines with areas to hang artwork. You can see more of how we set up the space here: https://www.facebook.com/pg/freelyinhope/photos/?tab=album&album_id=10155601137666597

I am a fashion and advertising photographer and had a street shoot planned in the Mission and Dogpatch. The day before the shoot the forecast turned to rain and thunderstorms. So I scrambled at the last minute to find a location to stage out of and shoot when the weather was bad. I found Dogpatch studios and was thrilled with how accommodating Terry was and I was able to book the ground floor studio at the last minute. It turned out that this space is amazing and has great light and character and even through it was not planned I ended up shooting about half of this session in the studio and the adjacent stairway. I love this space and Terry is wonderful to work with as well. I will definitely be back to work in this space again. Terry thanks for saving the day and having such a great space. I want to explore the other floors in the future!!Charles Schoenberger

An interesting, very concrete space perfectly suited for the Johnnie Walker tasting event it held last night. I was greeted with a long line outside, then slowly shuffled in and up the stairs (Eh great... its all dudes in this line). There was a great view of the San Francisco skyline as I gulped down my Black Label (Nice pour, but is this the only one I'm going to get???... oh shit, we gotta go downstairs now, Gulp gulp gulp... damn, I feel like cattle being herded around). Then we were guided down into a big presentation room where we were "educated" about Johnnie Walker's history and how it goes well with every drinking situation (God, this sales pitch is SOOO annoying). At the end of the presentation, we got the boot... (So not worth the trek out to this remote location where one might get mugged if it were darker). They did have little finger foods, cheese and crackers, and then during the presentation, they had a tasting of the 5 labels. the tastings were like pours from an eye dropper (although, the blue label tasting was decent) ... was intersting, but really not what I was expecting, nor what I wanted...

Been here in the past for a fashion show event and tonight for the Johnnie Walker tasting event. Was standing in line and someone mentioned that she attended a friend's wedding reception in the same space as well and was done up very nicely. I can see why, the upstairs space opens up into a nice patio overlooking the SF skyline and Bay front. Downstairs is a lofty feeling but the way JW set up the event was interesting and very professional. Was organized and no hustling around. Great setup, good sales pitch but I'm still not a scotch person but definitely an eye opener. And the 200 yr old bottle of Blue Label costs $3300.

This space is beautiful. We went to a wedding here last night, and it was such a cool setting. Our friends had the ceremony up on the top floor, and used the ground floor for the reception. Both spaces were perfect for how they were used, and provided a great backdrop that was hip on it's own, but also understated enough that it could really be customized to reflect the couple. It was also easy to find and parking was a breeze.

We hosted a company offsite on the 3rd floor. Terry and Junior were accommodating of needs. I arrived as early as 7:15 am, where Junior had set up the room to my specifications. He was very helpful in locating some additional supplies that we needed last minute. The experience was seamless. I will keep this spot in mind for future bookings!
