PATRICK BRUNING | General Manager
Patrick joined TFB Hospitality in April of 2025, having moved from Philadelphia the previous winter after successfully running several outlets for a small restaurant group for over a decade. A true swiss army knife of hospitality, Patrick has spent around 20 years in the industry, having come from bussing tables and dishwashing to General Manager status occupying all titles in between.
While his passions lie in craft cocktailing, Patrick enjoys exploring international cuisine, as well, and loves travelling when given the chance – inputting his experiences into his menus. Patrick recently acquired an MBA from the University of Louisville and is constantly continuing his educational exploits.
When not behind the bar or serving up plates, Patrick spends time with his partner, Katie, and loves all things outdoors. He is often trying to hit a local golf course in his spare time.
If you are so inclined, ask him about anything soccer or Lord of the Rings related and listen for as long as you have the patience for
