Rye Street Tavern

RYE STREET TAVERN Design
Distillation

Part of a large whiskey distillery campus this tavern is as an immersive journey into Maryland rye — its history, its link to the bounty of Maryland farms and waters and the associated cuisine, wood-fired cooking, and of course, foot-stomping music. It is an unabashedly modern restaurant born of local tradition and enlivened by the afterglow of a glass or two of the favored local spirit.

When the cuisine, service and atmosphere work harmoniously, chances are you will be able to leave any troubles outside the door. This is the magic of storytelling through design.

“He distills the ideas and he brings them
down to a concentrate where then they
can be instituted inside the project.”
