About James Beard-Inspired Cocktail Party
Join us for a cocktail
party inspired by titan of Pacific Northwest cuisine and frequent Gearhart
visitor, James Beard. Enjoy an evening dedicated to all things delicious, with
elegant appetizers paired with a variety of sample-sized cocktails mixed with
our own handcrafted spirits. Join us and raise a glass to a true original,
because, as Julia Child put it, "In the beginning, there was Beard."
