Sometimes the best private events are the ones that give guests something to do.
Tipsy Putt combines indoor mini golf, games, food, drinks, and reservable event space, creating a built-in activity for corporate outings, birthday parties, celebrations, and group events. Instead of planning dinner in one place and entertainment somewhere else, groups can eat, drink, play, and spend time together under one roof.
With four Tipsy Putt locations available on RestauRent across California and South Lake Tahoe, there are options for everything from a casual team outing to a larger private celebration.

Why Tipsy Putt Works for Private Events
Traditional private dining is great for some occasions. Other events need a little more energy.
Tipsy Putt gives guests an activity to gather around from the start. Mini golf and other games can help break up a corporate event, give different groups of friends something to do at a birthday party, or turn a standard happy hour into a more interactive experience.
Depending on the location and event, guests can also explore reservable spaces, catering options, group game packages, and larger event configurations. Here are the four Tipsy Putt locations you can find on RestauRent.
For Bay Area groups looking for something more interactive than a traditional restaurant event, Tipsy Putt East Bay brings mini golf and group entertainment to Emeryville. The venue combines reserved event space with games, food, and drinks, giving guests room to socialize without making the entire event revolve around a seated meal. Catering can also be arranged for events, with setup and cleanup handled by the venue team. It’s an especially practical option for company outings, team-building events, birthdays, happy hours, and other casual celebrations where you want guests moving around and interacting.
Located on Cannery Row, Tipsy Putt Monterey gives groups an indoor entertainment option close to one of Monterey's best-known visitor areas. Mini golf and 1-2 Putt™ provide built-in activities, while reservable spaces give groups a home base for eating, drinking, and catching up between games. Catering and à la carte food options are available, making the venue adaptable to different event formats. For corporate groups in particular, the combination of games and reservable space can make team building feel less structured and more social.
Tipsy Putt Sacramento puts groups right in Downtown Commons, next to Golden 1 Center. The Sacramento location offers plenty of ways to turn an ordinary gathering into an activity-driven event. Groups can combine mini golf with food, drinks, and reserved event areas, making it a fit for company outings, birthdays, holiday parties, reunions, fundraisers, and other celebrations. One of the location's most distinctive options is Trophy Club, a speakeasy-style cocktail lounge hidden inside Tipsy Putt. That gives planners the ability to pair the playful atmosphere of mini golf with a more elevated space for cocktails and conversation.
For a Tahoe event that doesn't depend on the weather, Tipsy Putt South Lake Tahoe offers an indoor option near Heavenly Village and the Stateline area. Groups can combine mini golf and games with catering and reserved event space, creating an easy activity before or after exploring Tahoe. Its all-season indoor format is especially useful for destination groups that don't want rain, snow, or changing mountain conditions dictating their plans. From company retreats and team outings to birthdays and social gatherings, it's a flexible alternative to a traditional private dinner in South Lake Tahoe.
What Types of Events Work Well at Tipsy Putt?
Tipsy Putt makes the most sense when interaction is part of the plan. Corporate team-building events can use the games as an easy icebreaker, while birthdays and social celebrations get entertainment without needing to bring in a separate activity.
It can also work well for company happy hours, holiday parties, bachelor and bachelorette celebrations, networking events, reunions, and other group outings. The biggest advantage is simplicity: the venue, entertainment, food, and drinks can all be part of the same event experience.
