San Jose just got a deliciously historic glow-up with The Pressroom, a new restaurant nestled in the city’s downtown that’s basically a love letter to journalism’s golden era. Housed in the historic Lyndon Building where newspapers once rolled off the presses, this spot is serving up way more than just killer cocktails and mouth-watering dishes.

Nuvo Hospitality Group has transformed this 1884 building into a culinary playground that pays homage to its newsroom roots. Walking into The Pressroom feels like stepping into a chic, modern time machine where vintage meets contemporary cool.

A Menu That Tells a Story

The menu is a playful narrative of its own, with dishes that wink at historical moments. Weekend brunch features tongue-in-cheek plates like “Monkey Business” yogurt parfait and “I Am Not a Crook” steak and eggs. Talk about a conversation starter!

Cocktails with Character

Their drink menu is equally clever, with cocktails like the Inkwell Manhattan and City Beat that would make any journalist feel right at home. Half-price happy hour from 3-5 pm weekdays? Yes, please.

Insta-Worthy Dining

With a mural by Basile Studios, typewriter wallpaper, and a shaded patio that screams “work-life balance”, The Pressroom isn’t just a restaurant - it’s an experience. Their Crispy Pork Loin Katsu and shareable Beignets are basically required eating for any self-respecting foodie.

So, grab your squad and head downtown. Journalism has never tasted this good.
