Marin Brunch Club: Cultivar (Sausalito)

Six seats. Good wine. Even better conversation. Cultivar recently opened in Sausalito and it’s exactly the kind of place worth gathering around — intimate, inviting, and new enough that it still feels like a find. **What to expect:** A relaxed mid-day Sunday brunch with a group of people who enjoy good conversation. And if the mood strikes after, Sausalito’s downtown is fun to explore with local shops and waterfront views. **Who this is for:** You like exploring new places. You’d rather have one real conversation than five forgettable ones. You care about the atmosphere and even more about the people in it. We’re slowly building a small group of people who look forward to seeing each other. We’d love to see you there. **To reserve your spot:** All attendees will initially be placed on a **waitlist**. As this event has limited space, not all waitlisted guests will be moved to the **“Going”** list. Once you receive my direct message, you will be moved to the **“Going”** list only after your deposit* is received. *There is a $20 deposit to secure your spot. All deposits will be returned to you at brunch or if you cancel with more than 24 hrs notice. Why the hold? Small groups only work when everyone shows up. This keeps us accountable to each other from day one. Thank you for understanding!
