Cafe du Nord, Swedish-American Hall

CAFE DU NORD Café Du Nord is a nightclub, restaurant and live music venue located in the landmark Swedish-American building in the Upper Market district of San Francisco.  Although the Du Nord is known for the quality of the national music acts it showcases, the club retains the ambiance of a classic lounge.  Built in 1907, it has maintained its Victorian interiors, featuring the original faux decorated paneling and wainscoting, and a forty-foot hand carved mahogany bar.  Details throughout the club hearken back to its past life as a notorious speakeasy during Prohibition.  The rich red walls and dark wood interior create the perfect environment to enjoy classic cocktails and the most eclectic live music in town — seven nights a week.

 THE SWEDISH AMERICAN HALL The Swedish American Hall is operated by Café Du Nord as a live music and entertainment venue.  Located above the Du Nord in the same building, the Swedish American Hall was built in 1907 by Swedish craftsmen.  Its centerpiece is a spectacular grand ballroom that is full of warm woods and old country charm.  Though the grand ballroom is large enough to support leading national acts, it is the perfect venue to provide guests with a uniquely intimate musical experience.
