Runs until Sunday, May 3rd, 2026

Tired of the Same Old Party Plans? Let’s shake things up—literally. Whether you’re planning a birthday bash, a corporate outing, or just an excuse to gather your favorite people, Union Tavern has unforgettable experiences waiting for you.

Here’s what your next celebration could look like: Private Cocktail Classes – Learn, shake, and sip your way through one of our themed classes like Tequila Sunset, Espresso Me, or Around the World in 80 Proofs.

 Personalized Wine Pairings – A curated tasting for up to 15 guests with Kendall-Jackson’s Donna Schlosser-Long. You choose the vibe, we bring the wine.

Bourbon & Whiskey Tastings in The Bradstreet – Explore rare pours and smooth finishes in our intimate speakeasy with a tasting experience that’s as bold as it is refined.

Candle-Making & Craft Classes – From spooky season scents to beachy vibes, leave with something beautiful (and handmade). 

 Paranormal Investigations  – Yes, the building is haunted. Yes, the spirits are real—both kinds.

 Psychic Gallery Readings – Gather your group for a night of intuition, connection, and a little cosmic clarity.

History Happy Hours – Drink in the past with stories from Sea Breeze’s colorful (and sometimes ghostly) past.

 Creative Workshops – Manifestation art, seasonal crafts, and more for a therapeutic twist on your night out.

At Union Tavern, we believe in celebrating everyone. Whether you're toasting a milestone or planning a team-building event, we’re proud to offer inclusive, customized experiences in one of Rochester’s most unique historic spaces—including our speakeasy, The Bradstreet.

Let’s plan your next event! DM us or email events@uniontavern.com to get started.

Monthly on every second Monday

We are soooo excited to have Chelsey Barry and Mark Cellura play at the Union on the 2nd Monday of the month! Join them and join our Sea Breeze Supper Club. A comforting night out that won’t break the bank. Enjoy a rotating menu of craveable dishes, served with care and priced with the times in mind. Great music. Small menu. Big flavor. Real value. Because Mondays deserve something special, too.

Please Note: This presentation is put on by Rochester Candelight Ghost Walks.  No-shows & late arrivals/early departures will not be refunded. The event is held on the 2nd floor, which requires stairs.  Please note there may be some overlap with stories from the Spirits of Sea Breeze Ghost Walk.

Lake Effect was formed on the belief that most really good songs hold up well even if stripped down to a basic acoustic version. That’s what they put out there; acoustic versions of a variety of music with all three voices working together. The bulk of their set lists come from the 70’s through the 90’s but they like to sprinkle in some newer songs as well as a few older classics along the way.
