Garcia’s Chicago state-of-the-art sound system is provided and designed by Meyer Sound. Meyer Sound was founded in 1979 to create the best sonic experiences possible, built on scientific innovation and quality engineering. At the heart is a passion for quality, ensuring that every paper cone, circuit board, and driver is handcrafted to meet our extremely demanding standard. With their long history with all things Jerry, there was no other choice for this room to be outfitted with anything other than Meyer speakers.

East Fork has provided the stunning dishware for Garcia’s Chicago. East Fork is based in Asheville, North Carolina, and is committed to creating beautiful, functional and long-lasting pottery with kindness and respect. East Fork has a devoted following, and their style is reminiscent of the famous ceramics company Heath, which was founded in Jerry’s beloved Marin County in the late 50s. This marriage of Appalachian pottery and Marin inspiration is what Garcia’s Chicago is all about.

Fishwife is a woman-founded and led food company aiming to make ethically-sourced, premium, and delicious tinned seafood a staple in every cupboard. They partner with healthy fisheries, aquaculture farms, and traditional canneries to bring the vibrance of conservas culture to the North American table. Fishwife also sources fish from Galicia, Spain, where Jerry’s ancestors came from, making them the ideal fit to supply the fish for one of our signature dishes “Captain Olsen’s Conserva.”

Graffeo is San Francisco’s oldest artisan coffee roasters, and has been a mainstay in San Francisco’s North Beach neighborhood since 1935. It remains a family-run company passed down through generations- the Original North Beach Cafe Coffee. In a neighborhood that Jerry haunted in his formative years, Graffeo was the perfect partner for our cups of Joe.

Athletic Brewing Co. is a valued sponsor of Garcia’s Chicago, dedicated to crafting delicious non-alcoholic beer, with no worries and no hangovers. Unlike other non-alcoholic beer, ABC is crafted with a proprietary process that allows them to maintain full flavor – which is why they continue to win numerous awards when up against full-strength beers.

As beer geeks with a music problem, Dogfish Head is a proud sponsor of Garcia’s NYC and Chicago. Brewing since ’95, their off-centered ales explore a spectrum of flavors and styles to take you on a journey of rhythm and brews.

Truly Hard Seltzer is a valued sponsor Garcia’s Chicago. Each and every one of these light and refreshing hard seltzers is made with a hint of flavor and only 100 calories, 1g sugar, and 5% ABV- making a drink that’s endlessly enjoyable, surprisingly delicious, and always refreshing.
