Owned by 151 Partners LLC, and managed by KemperSports, The Farmer's Union is located in the historic San Pedro Square in downtown San Jose, California, and is only an 8 minute walk from HP Pavilion, the home of the NHL's San Jose Sharks. The Farmer's Union is tentatively scheduled to open the week of Saint Patrick's Day, in time for March Madness and the NCAA 2nd and 3rd rounds hosted at HP Pavilion. The Farmer's Union will offer 51 beers on tap and will boast the largest television screen in Silicon Valley to catch all the latest regional and national sporting events. Decorated with historical references of San Jose, The Farmer's Union will provide California cuisine featuring many of the old favorites as well as a few healthier options at a great value." ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1923860625279115418.post-65857748803279561472013-01-10T08:21:16.029-08:002013-01-10T08:21:16.029-08:00Curb cafes (parklets) could be coming to DTSJ:

"COMING ...Here's the blurb from the Merc:<br /><br />"COMING SOON: When E&O Trading Co. closed its doors in downtown San Jose in March 2011, it seemed like another restaurant would be moving in quickly to the location at the corner of South First and San Fernando streets. Well, it wasn't quick, but work has been steady the past few weeks transforming it into Nemea Greek Taverna. I ran into owner Nick Tsigaris hard at work recently, and he was optimistic about an opening in the next few weeks."

Good news indeed ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13071500524031683183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1923860625279115418.post-79694502979117883242013-01-09T13:31:50.779-08:002013-01-09T13:31:50.779-08:00Either they belittle San Jose, or San Jose doesn&#...Either they belittle San Jose, or San Jose doesn't have these quality restaurants.
