Nestled in the historic 1917 Twohy Building at South First Street and the Paseo de San Antonio walkway is Blackbird Tavern, an American Bistro style restaurant in Downtown San José where cuisine and culture converge and are pushed to the limits.
Chris Esparza and Brendan Rawson, owners of beloved Naglee Park Garage and former owners of Ajax Lounge and Fuel 44, along with Chef Dawn, create a fresh and eclectic take on New American comfort classics using only quality, organic, and locally-sourced ingredients. Expect to find seasonal menus as well as food and drink specials where different types of cuisine beautifully harmonize with the diverse acts set to play on Blackbird’s stage.
Second to none is Blackbird’s diverse beverage selection. Supporting small local businesses and offering only the finest craft and spirits, Blackbird brews organic, free-trade coffee roasted by Barefoot Coffee Roasters, taps custom-blended wines from Santa Cruz Mountain wineries, pours 25-30 curated craft beers, and houses a fine selection of California artisan spirits. What more can you ask for from this full service bar? How about a built-in record player!
This convergence of urban culture and cuisine is Blackbird Tavern: American bistro, live music, and your third space.
