Candidates should sen their resume and cover letter to careers@sessionssf.com
Opening in the late spring, Sessions at the Presidio will be a 140 seat restaurant and beer garden featuring craft beer, craft cuisine and craft cocktails. The inspiration for our restaurant comes from the English pub idea of the "Session". . . a prized moment when good friends gather around to share the pleasures of the table and the glass. Sessions will not however be a pub nor a gastropub but a contemporary San Francisco restaurant with a focus on shared small plates showcasing the best ingredients, including organic produce grown for us by Skywalker Ranch in Marin County.
Sessions will feature over 100 craft beers, with 20 on draught and a focus on small producers. Our craft cocktail program will also focus on small batch distilleries, and our diverse wine list will include 16 wines on tap.
