River & Rye from the sky!

A few weeks ago, a particularly awesome and generous inn guest took these drone shots of River & Rye. It’s so wonderful to see our space from above, and to see it nestled in the Jamaica Village and surrounding mountains. Sometimes it helps to take a step back and see how all the parts make a whole community ✨

A year in business! We feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful staff, to create food and drinks and experiences that make people feel happy and connected, and to be part of a community that’s brought support and joy to our space week after week.

This business is a both/and- we’re working hard all the time and trying to figure out what balance looks like, basking in the joy when it comes (which is most of the time!!) and learning to navigate recovering/shifting/adapting when it doesn’t.

All this to say- we’re happy to be here. We can’t believe it’s been a year. Thank you for continuing to show up. It means the world.

If you love River & Rye and you’re happy we’re here, throw us an awesome Google review. Those things are worth their weight in gold. And then come hang out, we’re open Thursday-Sunday from 5-9 PM. Inn is always open. Parties upon request.

Cheers!
