In a spot you’d never expect, on a quiet residential street near the crossroads of Big Basin and Sunnyvale/Saratoga Roads, lies the Foothill Club. The old-fashioned brown-shingled façade has a wood trellis framing unusually shaped windows. An adjoining paved courtyard is dotted with Japanese maples. It’s small but very pretty and private.



The Club’s formal redwood entry ushers you into a room that’s perfect for a buffet arrangement. It has a 30-foot-high ceiling, a raised platform stage, hardwood floor and an elaborate window that filters in glorious sunlight, setting the room aglow.
