About this space

The former library was renovated in 2013 to preserve its interesting and charming features, such as the large wood burning fireplace and hand painted wood beams in the entry foyer, while updating the building with a renowned chef’s kitchen, lounge with color changing fabric walls, gallery equipped with night-club level sound and visual effects, 650 bottle wine cellar, and elegant billiard room, making it a delightful venue to explore.

The charming space is complemented by delicious food prepared by the Roosevelt Library’s head chef or catered by one of the recommended vendors. The Grand Hall features fourteen high foot ceilings and, at 36’ long, one of San Antonio’s longest dining tables which comfortably seats 34.

The Grand Hall and entry foyer can accommodate seating for up to 65. The total indoor capacity using both floors is 300. The spacious south lawn can accommodate hundreds of guests.
