The Academy truly is a social club like no other. It’s such a welcoming and inclusive space for San Francisco’s LGBTQ+ community and allies, and from the moment you walk in, it feels like home. The staff has been absolutely amazing — especially the two cofounders, Paul and Nate; manager Alonzo; and the entire front-of-house team, including Sky and Jess, who always make everyone feel cared for and appreciated. A special shoutout as well to the wonderful David, who gives me my monthly haircut as part of our membership — such an incredible perk! My husband and I have been members for a year now, and we highly recommend joining. We’ve made so many meaningful new friendships and genuinely love all the weekly programs and events they offer. The sense of community here is truly something special. If you’re looking for a place where you can connect, belong, and feel supported, Academy Social Club is it.

This place has a Superlative LGBTQ+ welcoming experience to offer. Red carpet, white glove with Tommy being the best at the bar at the Speakeasy. He's Excellence in Motion. Management should ask him to train other employees since he's the best employee I've encountered so far. And I've been a long time costumer since 2017. I've renewed my membership just because of Tommy's Superlative customer service skills.

I came here for a friend's surprise party. The venue is lovely and well decorated her reserved party was held on the first floor and lower level. The lowered level is a small cozy bar area that is darkly lit. It gives speak easy vibes which I adore. The lower level leads out to a large back yard patio space that has ample seating. The staff was very patient and friendly as some of the hallways are tight and sometimes there was a wait to pass someone. I know there are more floors and things to see here but those spaces were fr member access only. I hope to return here again. It was a lovely party space and the food was very good.

Amazing space to do a photo shoot. So many great spots to pose and very clean and beautiful. Has a upscale moody feel that definitely seys it apart from other spaces 2 stories of places to take photos in. Would definitely go back again and shoot here.
