Grace Cathedral Reviews

You must walk it from side to side ... On both sidewalks..see the market, eat and eat is a formidable bazaar of flavors very rich food in any typical store

Beautiful place my daughter got married there just recently

There is so much to appreciate about Grace Cathedral. It s a magnificent place of peace and beauty. In addition to spiritual nourishment, I enjoyed yoga, indoor and outdoor labyrinth walks, Jacob s Dream: A Luminous Path, created by Benjamin Bergery and Jim Campbell, and art installation, Les Colombes by Michael Pendry. I visited nearly every day during my SF visit. So much goodness.

Walk the labyrinth. Do it. Surprisingly spiritual and centering for anyone.

Attended the Christmas day service with Family. Visiting here for the first time all the way from India. Beautiful Cathedral, fantastic Choir and lovely service. Blessed !

It is better to visit with reference to the schedule. We hold a lot of events.

Not a fan of organized religion or religion at all for that matter. Just to stop and see an amazing building this was worth seeing. The church has a very interesting history of supporting minority populations. They were early supporters of civil rights and gay rights. They were worked with communities during the early days of Aids in the 1980s it is a very interesting place plus it is very easy to take amazing pictures here.

The Church id very beautiful. It draws me to it for some reason. The first time I went there I found it by chance, and now that I know its there I seek it. Great archtecture.

Such a pretty church with a cute park across the street

Beautiful Cathedral. Can't believe i waited so long to come in

Beautiful cathedral that has a museum feel. You can spend easily an hour here reading all of the plaques around the inside. Free to enter with a small donation if you wish. A must visit in San Francisco.

A really unique San Fran twist on a classic experience that makes me feel uneasy.

Very cool building, beautiful construction. Ironic to be right across the street from a Freemason Grand Lodge given the contentious historical relation between the church and freemasonry, but, both were very cool buildings to see after the long hike up Nob Hill.

Only been here for the yoga in the labyrinth on Tuesdays from 6:15-7:30. Its a wonderful experience, although it can be hard to follow the flow as its hard to hear/understand what is being said. I'd advise to be there early to find a spot if more than one.

Longstanding SF bastion of compassion and tolerance

Beautiful architecture and a calming place to be. There are two labyrinths and a coffee shop downstairs. I haven't been to any of their services but the space itself is very tranquil.

It has a maze that allows you to explore it, talk with your interior, it was wonderful!

Pope Benedicts' resignation ambiguetie, in Reno NV an aggressive panhandler fined $250,having canvassed extended residency of SRO single resident occupency, in SF CA(unknown involvement with narcotics?). An elderly girlfriends native American rights,to confront the Catholic

The church is like an old European church, but much newer. It's free, but they would like you to make a donation of about 10$/person.

Great worship today at 11am. The extended service felt very traditional in many ways. The coffee hour was very welcoming for serving such a large congregation. I was able to catch a tour right after coffee hour where I learned a lot about the church and art within it. The only things about the service I would have liked to see changed were the less traditional lords prayer, post communion prayer, and that they did not use the traditional 4 bell for the moments after "do this in remembrance of me." It seemed like an extended traditional service with less traditional rites being used.

Yoga on the Labrynth Tuesday nights
So much fun. Live music, great peeps, fun practice in a massive space. Bring something warm to wear.

This historic cathedral is worth stopping by regardless if your a tourist or a local. Massively high ceilings make it loft and serene

Awesome cathedral, an architectural wonder. There is a neat LED light sculpture in the building. I am not religious, but love the architecture of old churches, cathedrals and basilicas. A nice quiet place to escape the craziness of San Francisco for a brief time.

Majestic space in which to recharge spiritually, regardless of faith, experience the arts and music from one of the finest choral programs in the nation.

A beautiful place with an inclusive and community spirit.
Visit the memorial and walk the labyrinth to meditate.

Amazing place in SF! Closest thing to European cathedrals

Lovely with beautiful art. A nice tranquil respite.

Pretty but the organ was wayy too loud and they suggest a $20 donation to enter which seems excessive.

Stunning cathedral with amazing performances. I went here to see Kitaro perform live and was blown away by the entire experience.

If you don't have the time to visit Notre Dame in Paris,this is the replica you will love.

Great and peaceful place to visit ! Also the murals are very nice to see.

Very beautiful cathedral, definitely feels as if they're very involved in the community.

To visit. You have to see it to believe and experience the emotions it can give you the 'architecture

Unbelievable. The architecture, first of all, was truly exceptional, especially for how long ago it was built. I was amazed by the variety if beautiful artwork, ranging from murals, to sculptures to tapestries. Singing in it was fantastic, and an experience I will always remember.

It was powerful. Had too little time. Just went to the altar and looked.

Really beautiful church! When you look up you can see modern glass windows with Neil Armstrong and Robert Frost. Absolutely a visit worth!

Gorgeous! This church is so beautiful, and the inside is so calming. When I walked in music was playing on the background, the strain glass work is just indescribable.

Grace Cathedral hosts a wide array of wonderful and totally unexpected events. I highly recommend subscribing to their newsletter.

Very interesting because I was going to see the door of the church, which is a replica of the original of the Baptistery of San Juan in Florence. The 10 Bible passages depicted in relief are wonderful. The church inside is nothing special.

Serene and beautiful location. The stain glass on the church is a master piece. It's centrally located and lovely place to visit. There is a labyrinth which is a nice thing to just walk to feel peaceful.

This an excellent center for sacred activity on a frequent basis.

Beautiful and peaceful chapel to visit. The architecture is fantastic.

Beautiful cathedral, labyrinths, lots of music programs

The beautiful cathedral towers over the city by the bay

Really great and famous cathedral with unforgettable vibe. You can go inside without guide and also without fee. But if you want, you can pay a voluntary fee by your card.
The inside looked amazing and there was also some modern elements like animation projection.
This place should be definitely on your "places to visit in SF".

Beautiful cathedral, well preserved and with beautiful stained glass

An absolutely stunning cathedral. Huge and of European style.

Very beautiful. You can't help but feel great emotion.

Giant cathedral. A very nice vault. Surprising elements of the decor. Must see.

Interesting place It is necessary to dedicate time to explore, beautiful Gothic architecture, many details that attract attention, the Ghiberti doors, the stained glass windows of scientists, the labyrinths of the floor to meditate, etc. and not to miss of anything read before visiting

Grace Cathedral is an enormous, beautiful Cathedral, nicely located on one of San Fransisco's several heights. The walls are covered with murals telling the story of San Fransisco. Between the murals are wood carvings for the Via Dolorosa meditation. The Church has great accoustics, and is often used for larger concerts. There is also an AIDS Interfaith Memorial chapel with a stunning triptych by Keith Haring. A wonderful, spiritual place.

Solemn, open to gender and behavioral tendencies. Anglican / Pentecostal Church

Amazing. Somehow it looks even bigger inside than it does on the outside

A must see if you're a cathedral seeker. The Thursday night men's choir was just beautiful.

Beautiful cathedral, and a great venue for a private dinner
