II don’t even know where to begin. My son married last month and we had the rehearsal dinner at The Roosevelt Room. Planning with Breanna was so easy, as she promptly answered my calls and emails with patience and support. The bride’s family traveled from Boston and got a good taste southern hospitality! The food was amazing! Decor and music (very Bridgerton!) was perfection. Thank you to The Roosevelt Room for providing a beautiful experience for two families to become one!

PK's Roosevelt Room embraces a timeless venue situated in the heart of downtown historic Saint Augustine, Florida. Originally Genovar Bartolo's Grand Opera House, PK's Roosevelt Room continues an elegant legacy featuring brick walls, a 100 year old tin embossed ceiling, chandeliers, and grand staircase. Our venue is the perfect space to customize from rehearsal dinners, intimate receptions, showers, anniversaries, corporate gatherings, birthday celebrations, family reunions, and milestone moments. During the Roosevelts' presidency, they took pride in entertaining guests and used the White House' Roosevelt Room to house receptions with senators, congressmen, Justices of the Supreme Court, and even royalties. Like "The Fish Room", PK's Roosevelt Room aspires to host occasions to create lasting memories for you and your guests. With the stunning backdrop of downtown, PK's Roosevelt Room can be transformed to meet your vision to provide a striking ambiance. Work with our executive Chef to craft a personalized menu around your dietary preferences, theme, or cultural traditions to ensure an impeccable dining service. Our maximum guest capacity is 70 guests, with a minimum requirement of 20 guests for private occasions. Meet with our Event Coordinator to discuss planning details from decor, to preferred vendors where you customize your occasion.

We recently hosted our rehearsal dinner at PK’s Roosevelt Room, and it was truly an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The venue itself is stunning—charming, intimate, ...

and full of character—perfect for gathering our closest friends and family before the big day. But what really made the evening exceptional was the level of care, attention to detail, and service we received throughout the planning process and the event itself. A huge shoutout and heartfelt thank you to Breanna Brown, who was an absolute dream to work with! From the first conversation, Breanna was incredibly organized, responsive, and genuinely excited to help us bring our vision to life. She guided us through every step—menu planning, room layout, timing, décor ideas—you name it. Her professionalism is top-notch, but what really stood out was how personal and invested she was in making sure our night was exactly what we wanted. On the day of the event, everything ran smoothly and beautifully. The food was delicious, the staff was warm and attentive, and the ambiance was just right—elegant yet relaxed. Our guests are still raving about how wonderful the evening was! If you're considering hosting a special event at PK’s Roosevelt Room, don’t hesitate—it’s a gem of a venue. And if you have the pleasure of working with Breanna Brown, you’re in excellent hands. She made the entire process stress-free and actually enjoyable (yes, even the planning part!). We couldn’t have asked for a better start to our wedding weekend. Thank you again to Breanna and the entire team at PK’s for giving us a night we’ll always remember!

My mother-in-law booked the Roosevelt Room for my and my husband's rehearsal dinner, and it was so wonderful. We had a small, intimate group of only about 20 people, but we wanted ...

a place for our family and wedding party to enjoy for the evening — especially because we weren't having a welcome party. We loved that Roosevelt Room allowed us to have a beautiful space all to ourselves, even with a small group. Many of the other venues we contacted in St. Augustine said our group was too small to host in their private spaces, or were too expensive for our budget. We had the space at Roosevelt Room for ample time — from 6 to 9:30 p.m., and the staff there were excellent. The food and beverage were amazing, and we were able to offer multiple dish options to our guests. In addition, they handled the decor and place cards, which was a huge help. They could even accommodate our music preference. We also loved that Roosevelt Room was easily walkable for our guests, most of whom were staying at Casa Monica, where we had our wedding ceremony and reception. It's a great location! I highlight recommend Roosevelt Room for any event — especially your rehearsal dinner!

AHHH No amount of words can express my gratitude for Bre, Chef Mike, and the entire PK team. I hosted my rehearsal dinner at the Roosevelt room, and it was beyond perfect. Bre made...

sure to pay extra attention to every single detail. The ambiance was so romantic and the food was delicious. We were able to do a tasting with my husband's parents since they were paying for the event, and it was so difficult to narrow down the menu options. Everything was exquisite. I need to give MAJOR props to Bre and her team as they handled the evening of with so much grace and patience. We had to start late due to missing guests and the PK team was so kind about it. Additionally, it's not a wedding without a little bit of family drama - Bre was my rock when it happened, and I am truly so honored and grateful that she was apart of my special night. I would like to think Bre and I became friends through this event, and I am just so happy. I cannot recommend PK Roosevelt Room enough! 10/10!!

I reached out to PK’s Roosevelt Room to book a rehearsal dinner only one week prior to my wedding, due to my other rehearsal dinner venue not communicating with me. Once I was put ...

in touch with Breanna, one of PK Roosevelt Room’s event directors, I immediately knew and was reassured that we were in good hands, and I knew that we would be well taken care of every step of the way! It was so refreshing to have someone step up to the plate and help me take care of the planning for our rehearsal dinner in only a few days flat! Not only were the communication and planning absolutely seamless, the service and food we received on our rehearsal day was absolutely phenomenal! Would definitely recommend PK’s Roosevelt Room to any future St. Augustine bride… you won’t regret it!

Stepping into PK's Roosevelt Room felt like stepping back in time to a place where history and elegance intertwine seamlessly. As soon as we walked through the doors, we were greet...

ed by the charming ambiance of exposed brick walls, evoking a sense of timeless beauty that instantly captured our hearts. Choosing this venue for our special day was one of the best decisions we ever made. From the intimate ceremony to the lively reception, every moment was infused with the same spirit of hospitality that characterized the gatherings hosted by President Roosevelt himself. It was truly a privilege to celebrate our love in a space with such rich historical significance. The backdrop of downtown St. Augustine added an extra layer of magic to our celebration, with the twinkling lights and historic architecture creating a picturesque setting that our guests couldn't stop talking about. And the food! Oh, the food was absolutely divine. Working with the Executive Chef to create a personalized menu was a highlight of the planning process, and every bite was a culinary delight. But what truly set PK's Roosevelt Room apart was the personal touch that went into every aspect of our event. From the attentive guidance of the Event Coordinator to the warm hospitality of the staff, we felt truly cared for every step of the way. It's clear that everyone at PK's Roosevelt Room is passionate about creating unforgettable memories for their guests, and we are so grateful to have been a part of that legacy. In the end, our wedding day exceeded our wildest dreams, thanks in large part to the incredible team at PK's Roosevelt Room. If you're looking for a venue that combines historic charm, modern elegance, and unparalleled hospitality, look no further than PK's Roosevelt Room. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.

When my wife and I got engaged next door to Roosevelt Room at Prohibition Kitchen (PK) and saw how wonderful the staff treated us, we knew we wanted to keep our wedding arrangement...

s close. We were looking for something high in value, but reasonably priced and after speaking with Breanna, the event coordinator for PK, Roosevelt Room, Chianti Room, and Sidecar, we knew she would provide us with the wedding of our dreams, so we started planning! Breanna catered to our every need and made time for every little question I had. Our rehearsal dinner was held at Chianti Room and was so gorgeous I cried. The food and service was incredible and the atmosphere was comfortable yet sophisticated. My bride and I were able to walk around to each guest comfortably, even with the huge charcuterie table!!! Our wedding was held at Roosevelt Room, which in itself is a beautiful venue, but with Breanna’s attention to detail, the place was absolutely captivating. The staff was professional and accommodating and the chef is top-notch! They even change the lighting for different moods from the ceremony to dinner to dancing! We were impressed by Breanna’s transcendent proficiency. She structured and executed our wedding package flawlessly. Our friends and family have not stopped raving about what a lovely time they had! The whole experience was seamless and stress-free, overall a terrific success! I highly recommend there venues for any occasion.
