What To Expect

Why have brunch inside a restaurant when you could enjoy it on the waters of San Francisco Bay? Your cruise departs from Pier 3 on the Embarcadero. After hopping aboard, enjoy provided bubbly and mimosas while looking out at the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island, and the towns of Sausalito and Tiburon.

Snap photos of Angel Island, the Bay Bridge, and the San Francisco waterfront while you listen to onboard music and enjoy the sea breeze from the deck. Then head to the brunch buffet to fill up on an array of items, from scrambled eggs and waffles to ceviche salad, sirloin, and pasta. Coffee, tea, juice, soft drinks, and sparkling wine are provided; additional beverages can be purchased from the cash bar.

After your time on the water, return to the pier where you can continue your day in San Francisco.

My wife and I were looking for something to do during our visit to San Francisco and came upon this cruise. We're glad we chose this activity and it was very enjoyable. The bottomless Mimosas were great and there was a good selection of food choices for the buffet. We would definitely recommend this brunch cruise!

Birthday Surprise!

Alycia_H, May 2023

Surprised my boyfriend for his birthday and it was great! The food and drinks were truly endless, our glasses were never empty and food was always hot and fresh. Dorothy and Paul were our servers and they were also great!

AMAZING!! WORTH THE PRICE!

Marisol_S, May 2023

The price justifies the buffet and bottomless mimosas and a smooth ride. I definitely recommend this to anyone visiting San Francisco. You get a close up to the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz island. It was very classy with piano playing and the food was very good!! The waitresses were very attentive and always made sure your glass was full!

Great time! Always!

Alex_P, May 2023

My family celebrate great occasions on the horn blower. It’s a San Francisco tradition. When family and friends come from out town champagne brunch cruise is the best way to show the class and beauty that is San Francisco. My mom fell in love with captain crunch.

Amazing excursion

Tracy_R, May 2023

Amazing excursion! Loved the boat ride to the Golden Gate Bridge, around Alcatraz and to the Bay Bridge. Enjoyed the unlimited champagne and/or mimosas. Brunch was good. Staff was very attentive and friendly. I would recommend.

Perfection!

Russell_S, Apr 2023

My sisters flew out to California and I surprised them with this champagne boat cruise. It topped off a perfect weekend! I am now thinking of other people to suggest this too definitely. The food was good, the music set the atmosphere perfectly! The ride, the scenery all awesome!

The overall experience was wonderful. The day started with rain but the atmosphere on the boat was pleasant and sunny.

Great views of the city

Laureen_R, Feb 2023

This was enjoyable. The mimosas never stopped flowing, the live music was enjoyable, and the views were fantastic!

Will think twice to bring any of my visitors on this trip.

Marijo_J, Feb 2023

First lie (issue with engine of bigger boat). My dear friend was on bigger boat a month ago. They didn't want to go under GG Bridge (too much waves). Food average. Glas of wine $14 barely 4oz, I'm bartender). Trip to high price, only crew were very friendly. In the price tip should be included.

Best Brunch Cruise!

Phychelle_J, Jan 2023

The sights and the music. The onboard description of the sights and the variety of Christmas songs made this Christmas trip to San Francisco quite memorable.
