After more than four years leading Shelter, our Bar Manager, Ryan @rk.sandiego is heading to Vancouver to begin the next chapter of his life. Four years behind a bar like Shelter is no small thing. Ryan has been here through hundreds of services, countless menu changes, late nights, cocktail experiments, very long prep days, and all the less glamorous work that goes into making a bar feel effortless when the doors open. Alongside an incredible team, he helped guide Shelter through some of its biggest milestones, including our introduction to North America’s 50 Best Bars @the50bars extended list and Canada’s 100 Best @canadasbest100 list. He’s had a hand in countless drinks, helped develop an exceptionally talented bar team, and put a tremendous amount of care into pushing Shelter forward year after year. We’re incredibly proud of what Ryan and the team have accomplished, grateful for everything he’s given this place, and excited to see where Vancouver takes him next — but first, there are still a few drinks to make: Ryan has one more week at Shelter. If you’ve enjoyed one of his cocktails, spent an evening at the wood with him, or simply want to wish him well, come by, grab a seat and have one last celebratory drink together. Come raise a glass to Ryan and send him off properly. 🥃 - .... .- -. -.- / -.— — ..- / ..-. — .-. / .- .-.. .-.. / — ..-. / -.— — ..- .-. / .... .- .-. -.. / .— — .-. -.- 📷 @visuals.byruslana
