Something new is coming to Grind and this time, we’re bringing the kitchen to you.
The food you love at Grind. The people you want around your table. We’ll take care of the cooking.
We’re launching "Grind at Home," bringing our chefs into your home or private event for a meal created just for you.
One of my favorite things to hear from guests is, “We had no idea you were doing food like this right here in Boyertown.” There’s a lot of experience behind what comes out of our kitchen, and this feels like the right time to share more of that story.
First, a familiar face is back! Nate Kline has returned to Grind for the off-season after two seasons working for a chef and company that offer the highest quality experience. Nate has continued to hone his skills and gained firsthand experience in everything that makes private dining special from thoughtful menus to the personal touches that make guests feel taken care of. I’m excited to have him helping us get this program started.
Our kitchen also includes Geoff Slayer, formerly executive chef at Willoughby's on Park in Wyomissing; Austin Lambert, who helped open Lederach Corner Store Piano Bar as executive chef; Micah Wyckoff, formerly sous chef there; and Jake Duna, formerly executive chef at Barrel & Ale. Alongside them are longtime Grind chefs who have helped shape the food and hospitality our guests come back for.
I’m proud of this team, and I want to give you another way to experience what they can do.
So, what does a private chef experience look like?
It starts with a conversation about your tastes, your guests, and the occasion. Your chef will work with you to create a personalized menu, handle the ingredient shopping, cook on-site, and take care of meal service and kitchen cleanup. We’ll work through the menu, space, and service details with you ahead of time so you can relax and enjoy your company.
Maybe it’s a three-course dinner with friends, a five-course tasting menu for an anniversary, or a holiday dinner with family around the table. Whether you want familiar favorites or something adventurous, we’d love to help create a meal that fits the occasion.
And if there’s a dish you’ve had at Grind that you’re still thinking about, tell us! We’d love to explore making it part of your menu.
Inquiries open Monday, October 26th. We’ll share how to inquire right here as that date approaches.
We’re excited to bring you "Grind at Home." Your table, our chefs- leave the Grind to us!
