Sustainability, Sips, and PRIDE at The View Lounge
At The View Lounge, we believe in offering our guests exceptional experiences that also positively impact our planet. That's why we're excited to introduce Hibiscus and Apple Ciders by Sincere Cider to our menu for PRIDE Month this June.
Partnering with Sincere Cider, we bring more than just a beverage; it's a commitment to sustainability. For every case of cider sold, Sincere Cider plants a tree in California Burn Scar, helping to restore local ecosystems and preserving our state's natural beauty.
Founded by LGBTQ business owner Bex Pezzullo, Sincere Cider embodies a passion for exceptional craftsmanship and environmental responsibility. The Hibiscus and Apple Ciders blend crisp apples with vibrant floral notes of hibiscus, creating a refreshing and unique taste experience.
Raise a glass to sustainability and PRIDE, and savor the taste of positive change with Hibiscus and Apple Ciders by Sincere Cider.
Treecraft Distillery
It started with our chef taking his son to a soccer game on Treasure Island. Mixing pleasure and opportunity to support our local community, as he always does, our chef walked into the Treecraft Distillery and a relationship was born.
Treecraft Distillery makes small-batch craft spirits using locally sourced ingredients to create the perfect grain-to-glass gin, vodka, rum, and whiskey. Their craft spirits are made with meticulous attention to detail using only fresh, natural, local ingredients. They are the makers of the Lavender Hibiscus Gin, an ingredient in The View's signature Ten/89 Martini.
Threecraft Distillery is one of only two certified LGBTQ-owned and operated distilleries in the United States. They celebrate diversity and are proud certified members of the NGLCC.
Celebrating LGBTQ+
San Francisco Marriott Marquis is proud to celebrate Pride Month annually in June and remains committed to supporting the LGBTQIA+ community throughout the year, embracing diversity and inclusivity as integral values in our ongoing endeavors.

Therese Lahaie, Lightbirds
Last year, Skyline Artist Lightbirds "Soared" the Salesforce Tower in Spring Migration. Light installation artist and open water swimmer Therese Lahaie kept track of the tides and seabirds as she swam in the San Francisco Bay.
We were thrilled to partner with local artist Therese Lahaie as she debuted Lightbirds with 80' wingspans that flew on the tower to mark the Spring migration, during watch parties on Saturday, April 29, and Sunday, April 30, 2023, from 8 pm to 11 pm at The View Lounge to celebrate this monumental event.
