Since opening our doors in 2017, Frame's creative hub has been home to an ever-changing lineup of culturally rich dinners, guest collaborations, workshops, book events, wine tastings and more. No two days or weeks are exactly the same at Frame, but tickets are always required to attend.
FRAMEbar is the counter-part to Frame, bringing fine-fast drinking & eating front and center, without the need to pre-purchase tickets or even make reservations. (Though they're still recommended.)
FRAMEbar provides a similar editorially curated experience to Frame in a more casual setting. Chefs take over our front space for an entire monthlong residency with their interpretation on a rotating small plates bar menu, transforming FRAMEbar into a new kind of experience each time, accompanied by curated cocktails and hand-selected wines by the bottle & by the glass from Frame’s sommelier.
The Frame Pavilion is our flexible, all-seasons tented backlot events space, complete with a dedicated bar, shipping container kitchen outfitted with a wood- & gas-fired oven, and plenty of space to lounge and catch a movie or other live entertainment while you nosh on snacks in our most casual setting. Have a large group you’d like to gather? Drop us a line at hello@framehazelpark.com to inquire about private event bookings.
