Splash at Thrive City

Thrive City has announced the addition of Splash at Thrive City, a 30,000 square foot sports bar that will offer fans a state-of-the-art sports viewing experience. A first of its kind in the Bay Area, the two-story space will feature four bars, an upscale food program, over 75 televisions including an 840 square foot curved LED wall, and multiple indoor and outdoor areas. Splash at Thrive City, which is set to open in early 2025, will be operated by Sidecar Hospitality.

Splash at Thrive City will provide sports fans a media-rich experience featuring the latest audiovisual technology, including the 840 square foot curved LED video wall. A video ticker wrapping around the ground level of the 20,000 square foot indoor area will feature scores and breaking news from around the sports industry. Whether indoor or outdoor, every seat will have a sightline to a screen. The bar’s sound system will surround guests with high-impact game audio centered around a DJ booth.

In addition to the indoor features, Splash at Thrive City will feature 10,000 square feet of outdoor space, including pet friendly patios, an outdoor bar, and a large screen television. Throughout the space, patrons will be able to take part in a variety of games including golf swing suites, pop-a-shot, pool, shuffleboard and foosball. Additionally, Splash at Thrive City will feature numerous unique areas to host private events of any size.

The cocktail program for Splash at Thrive City will be created by Kevin Diedrich, owner and operator of Pacific Cocktail Haven, a 2024 James Beard Award finalist for “Outstanding Bar.” Additionally, the four bars will offer guests a wide range of beer options, including 16 unique taps, and a selection of natural and biodynamic wines with an emphasis on California producers. The kitchen’s offerings will range from sports bar classics to upscale comfort food, creating a menu that offers something for everyone.

Sidecar Hospitality, co-founded by Andrew Chun and Jan Wiginton, owns and operates some of San Francisco's most well-known bars and restaurants. In 2008, Sidecar opened Press Club, an award-winning 9,000 square-foot wine lounge and event space. Following the success of Press Club, Sidecar purchased and revitalized the historic 130-year-old German beer hall, Schroeder's. In 2016, Sidecar partnered with Diedrich to open two additional cocktail bars, Pacific Cocktail Haven and Kona's.
