My Son had his wedding there and it was magnificent. Instead of in some stuffy country club we created our own magic and everyone from all over the US said it was the best wedding they have ever been to. Im talking about people who have been to high-end weddings, this had history and atmosphere and close to Benicia and inexpensive.

It was a nice venue. Nice size too. I was surprised how hot it was, no central air. Was expecting a breeze off the water. There were two huge ceiling fans which were helpful. It would be nice to have one or two more in the back of the room. The view of the water was nice. Good place to have a wedding reception, birthday party, family reunion.

Awesome venue for all of your important events. Went for a baby shower and wedding reception. The place is an old style building with a ton of character. Parking is an open lot that can fill up quick depending on your amount of guests. Theres stairs to walk up not sure if there was an elevator for elderly or disabled guests. Vary spacious inside leaving your imagination to decorate and transform the space into whatever youd like. Theres a kitchen and dance floor. Not sure if they provide catering my friend had his own caterers and DJ. The only issue is it can be hard to find once you get to the left turn. If you miss it youll end up at the port entrance.

Fabulous place with a lot of history. The stonewalls alone will give your event a feeling that you cannot get in very many other places. Theres plenty of parking, a full kitchen and tons of atmosphere!

Went to the clock tower to play in a charity poker tournament sponsored by the Benicia Police Department and Blue Dog. Thanks to our host for letting us buy in at the door. The event had a Mexican dinner, live deejay, free soft drinks, and multiple raffles. Although I got knocked out early. My friend ended up winning the tournament! I must admit I learned nothing about the clock tower. I will be sure to return to correct that admission.

Good place... Just so you know if your renting this place you have to be there first thing... Otherwise your Dj, cooks, deco person and everyone else will be waiting because they wont let anyone in. Aside from that cool people and cool place
