STAG IS DEDICATED TO MEETING THE CHALLENGES OF OUR TIMES HEAD ON BY PROVIDING UNIQUE WAYS FOR OUR CLIENTS TO THOUGHTFULLY CONNECT, CELEBRATE AND RENEW PERSONAL BONDS THE WAY WE DO BEST: THROUGH DELICIOUSNESS, AUTHENTIC SERVICE AND BEAUTY.

Stag Dining Group has been in business for over a decade, and the most rewarding part of what we do is the people we get to work for and with. We have helped our clients tell their stories and connect to stakeholders across a variety of scales and settings across the globe but San Francisco is home. The need to connect has never been so vital. The hospitality industry connects people like no other industry can, and there has never been a more important time for creating these authentic moments than now. 

Food experiences bring us together, they tell stories of culture, environment and tradition. These elements can set the stage for what’s going on in our world like exploring the impacts of climate change through the medium of oysters and wine. Or hearing about the journey of a Napa winemaker who started out as a hardworking migrant farmer from Mexico fulfilling his dream by establishing a family owned California winery and having his wine poured at a State Dinner at the White House for the President of Mexico. We love the stories and the people whom we source from, we take extra strides to make what is on your plate and in your glass does right by the people and land that it comes from. Our commitment to helping our supply chain in environmental efforts and improved farming practices is why we were the first California based caterer to join Zero Food Print. Together our efforts build better outcomes for our employees, clients, supply chain and planet.

We acknowledge the unprecedented times we find ourselves in and look forward to partnering with you to bring some much needed connection and kindness to your celebration, your workplace and carry on the vision and culture you’ve worked so hard to create within your family, friends, teams and for your clients. We are here for you.

The Backstory:  Back in 2021 The SOMA neighborhood in San Francisco wasn’t exactly a breading ground of entrepreneurial optimism for the hospitality industry but an opportunity arose when Kingston Wu of Westwood, Last Rites and Horsefeather approached Stag to help him and Joey The Cat (a world champion skeeball player) launch a barcade in the former Coin-Op location called Thriller Social Club. 

We were apprehensive given the work from home impacts on the neighborhood but we gave it a chance after seeing the beautiful kitchen built by Elizabeth Faulkner (Citizen Cake) in what was originally known as Orson. For those that know Stag, our kitchens have deep roots in the history of San Francisco dining with our home base starting out at Wolfgang Puck’s Postrio, then moving to Jeremiah Tower’s Stars. So coming back to a kitchen with this lineage made a lot sense for us. 

The venue itself has great ambiance with taxidermy, vintage and new video games and great cocktail bars spread across 2 floors that can host up to 350 guests. Chef Jordan Grosser and Chef Mike Jarrett lay down the hits taking advantage of the Neapolitan pizza oven and a menu that features lobster rolls, wings, a custom 13-inch hotdog and healthy stuff like wedge salads and street corn. 

In 2022 we partnered with Arrow Events (Mister Jiu’s & Future Bars) to help lead the charge of bringing events back to San Francisco and hosting them at Thriller. 

Step right up and grab a drink, play a round of skeeball and enjoy some pizza with friends before a Giants game or after work with some coworkers.
