The New Business Round: Why Fulton Market Professionals Are Entertaining Clients at Ace Golf Club Instead of a Course
Taking a client golfing used to mean giving up most of a workday — an hour-plus drive to a course, a five-hour round, and an hour back. For professionals based in Fulton Market, that math rarely makes sense anymore. Ace Golf Club is becoming the alternative.
The Same Relationship-Building, Without Losing the Day
Client golf works because it gets people out of a conference room and into a few hours of relaxed, low-pressure conversation. That's still true in a simulator bay — you get the same walk-and-talk rhythm, the same friendly competition, the same reason golf has always worked for business relationships. What's different is the time cost: a session at Ace Golf Club runs 60-90 minutes, not an entire afternoon.
For a Fulton Market office, that's the difference between blocking out a full day for a client outing and fitting one in between two meetings.
Built for a Group, Not Just a Foursome
Client entertaining rarely means exactly four people. Our 12 Uneekor-powered simulator bays running GSPro, spread across 8,000 square feet, make it easy to accommodate a small client team, not just a rigid foursome — and our full bar and lounge gives the group somewhere to gather before or after, even if not everyone's hitting balls.
No Weather Risk, No Rescheduling
Outdoor client golf comes with a built-in liability: weather. A rained-out round means rescheduling around everyone's calendar a second time — a real problem when you're trying to close something with a client who's only in town briefly. Indoors, that risk disappears entirely.
The Real Advantage: You're Already in Fulton Market
Here's what makes Ace specifically useful for client entertaining in this neighborhood: you don't have to choose between golf and dinner. At 219 N Justine Street, you're steps from Fulton Market's restaurant row. Play a round, then walk the group to dinner and drinks afterward — no driving, no second location, no dead time in between. It turns one outing into a full evening without asking a client to give up more of their schedule than they planned to.
A Private Setting That Matches the Meeting
Ace operates as a members-only club, which matters when you're bringing clients somewhere that reflects on your business. It's a controlled, private environment — not a walk-in lounge with random foot traffic — built to feel like an actual clubhouse for the kind of relationship-building that used to require a tee time an hour outside the city.
