Pearl Stable

A staple within the Pearl area and you can expect a beautiful setting for any event that’s held here inside the Pearl Stable. With huge chandeliers and tons of wood work, Pearl Stable is able to host your conference, ball, wedding, or any event. There is an elevated stage that overlooks the dining and dance floor. If you’re interested in this venue take advantage of their open houses!

A Beautifully restored horse stable from the 1890s. it’s a host to numerous events, it boasts a Huge ballroom and a pretty good size dance floor. It is Gorgeously decorated with huge chandeliers depicting the brew house. There are remnants of horse stalls that have a table where a couple can sit and brings to mind the old time dance club feel. Can you say Babalo, Ricky Ricardo! During summer treat yourself to the Pearl Summer Dance hall series through August. Every Wednesday night a different band – From country to jazz, tejano, and German polka (bring out the accordians!). And it’s FREE! How can you beat that.

This is an absolutely beautiful and historic venue that’s perfect for concerts, meetings, weddings, and conventions!
It’s the old horse stables for the Pearl Brewery, and I assume that they used to deliver the golden goodness that is Pearl Beer on horse drawn carriages across San Antonio. Now, it serves as a meeting hall that has been restored and fixed up to its former glory! I always knew this place as the Jersey Lilly for some reason, but I haven’t heard it called that in years.
They have a nice stage set up, which is visible on all sides of the oval shaped facility. There is a ring shaped hallway around the center of the place that has a great place to grab a drink, check in with the event sponsors, or just mingle!
The restrooms are clean, and well lit. Parking is easy, across Ave A under 281.
Be sure to check out the historic photos on the ring shaped concourse around the meeting room. They’re all super old, and really cool to check out!
This place isn’t generally open to the public to go in and check out whenever they want to. There has to be a specific event going on around there.
But if you do happen to see the doors open, be sure to duck in there and check it out!

Honestly I wasn’t overly impressed with this place after all the hype. We just attended a wedding here and the first thing I noticed once entering was the smell. I am not sure the last time a horse was in here, but it honestly smells of horse poop. Fortunately that smell is only noticeable in the outer circle and not so apparent in the actual ballroom. The venue itself looks neat but I didn’t think catering was that good. I was only able to eat what the wedding party ordered, but I didn’t think any of the food was anything to write home about. Everything seemed a bit bland. Overall, I think this place has potential but based on what I hear about price and reputation, I expected much more.

Always a great event venue. Have been to all manner of things at the Stable including concerts, panels, and rallies. I know this is a popular wedding spot as well. They have a weekly open house so potential renters can come check it out. It’s classy and modern while still historic and unique. It’s really very timeless, and can be customized for whatever kind of vibe you want for your event. I actually looked at this one for my wedding, but it’s booked from now until forever. If you have an event planned and are dying to get into the Pearl, book early!
I’ve also never had a problem parking here because of the garage at the Pearl. I know some people are scared of coming downtown for that reason, but fear not!

Wonderful event space that works well for many purposes. I have been here for Mind Science Foundation lectures, fundraisers (Animal Defense League), and intimate performances (Opera Piccola’s production of Phantom of the Opera). The space itself is round and there is an outer circle that works great for registering, greeting guests, and serving cocktails. A party’s success is based on many factors including food, music, etc, but this location adds something special to the event.

Attended a conference dinner here. Food was tasty with veg and gluten free options clearly labeled. Service was too prompt, we for up to get dessert from the buffet line and out napkins, flatware and beverages were removed. (We were able to scavenge unused flat ware from another table to share.)lovely stage with good acoustics. Nice place for a very large group.

Absolutely incredible venue.
So much history, so many things making this space unique, and so much hospitality from the folks at Pearl. The building, true to its name, actually used to be the stable at Pearl. You can still sit in booths that are separated by the actual walls that used to separate the stalls for the horses. It’s so awesome.
You can also use the stage. I’ve been to everything from awards banquets here to weddings. All have been different and beautifully executed. Definitely keep the stables at Pearl in mind for your next special event!
