On Friday nights the lush backyard garden at Sassafras turns Spanish! We start the afternoon with happy hour from 4pm to 6pm with Estrella Damm on Tap only $5, $20 Jugs of Sangria, and all our seasonal cocktails are just $10 each!
We serve our own take on tapas, with a street food focus. Barbacoa pork tacos, smoked mushroom tacos, smoked brisket Bocadillo’s, croquetas & Pinchitos.
Grab a glass of tempranillo and enjoy a platter of Jamon serrano, manchego & crusty bread.
Finish the night with lush desserts like crème catalana & house made churros.

Sassafras has always been known for hosting casual & laid back private parties in our garden. We can comfortably host up to 60 guests for a cocktail style event in our shade covered garden, we give exclusive venue use at no additional charge, so in the event of extreme weather we can host events inside the café too.
