Farewinds Officially Opens at Oyster Point, Bringing All-Day Dining, Community Gathering Spaces, and Bayfront Views

  • From the team behind The Anecdote, Farewinds is a place to gather, unwind, take in stunning bay views, and enjoy a delicious meal.
  • Executive Chef Francisco Melchor serves flavorful global-inspired dishes that reflect the diversity and spirit of the Bay.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. & LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bon Appétit Management Company, in partnership with Kilroy Realty Corporation, today announced the full opening of Farewinds, the waterfront market hall and gathering destination at Oyster Point in South San Francisco. Following several months of serving the Oyster Point community, Farewinds now welcomes the broader public to experience its globally inspired dining, flexible gathering spaces, event venues, and sweeping Bay views.

The location offers multiple experiences: a global-inspired market hall, convenient grab-and-go meals, handcrafted coffee service, flexible lounge space for impromptu gatherings, and event-ready venues overlooking the bay.

Chef Francisco Melchor has developed a menu that reflects the Bay Area’s diversity and the global food traditions that have shaped his cooking. His Indian, Asian, and Mediterranean-inspired dishes include a Delhi-style butter chicken, vegetarian curries with South Indian flavors of coconut, tamarind, and eggplant, and garlic noodles topped with garlic confit and chili crisp.

Also on offer are a Rajasthani lamb masala spiced with Mathania red chilies and a ginger shiitake pho in a fragrant vegetable broth prepared by grilling and layering in flavor, bit by bit.

Much like the food, the space is thoughtfully designed. Chef Melchor explains, “[in this space] you have the freedom to take a well-deserved break, drink your coffee, take in the artwork around campus or the Bay views, or slow down and enjoy a good meal.”

“Farewinds reflects our vision for Oyster Point as a vibrant waterfront community where people come together to work, connect, and enjoy exceptional experiences,” said Angela Aman, Chief Executive Officer of Kilroy Realty Corporation. “As Oyster Point further establishes itself as a leading destination for life science and other highly innovative companies, Farewinds represents an important new gathering place that serves both our campus community and the broader South San Francisco community.”

Designed by locally based Rapt Studio as an extension of the waterfront, Farewinds showcases sunlight-drenched spaces with floor to ceiling windows, contrasting oak paneling, lush greenery, and whimsical art that create a polished coastal feel.

Farewinds at Kilroy Oyster Point in South San Francisco is open Monday through Friday for coffee service, breakfast, and lunch. For bespoke experiences, lounge areas, meeting spaces, and indoor and outdoor venues are available. Expanded offerings that include a full bar and evening service will be coming soon.
