Last night we were honored to host a wonderful group, Project Heart, at the restaurant. Project Heart is a local nonprofit dedicated to supporting people in recovery by building trusting friendships, community connection, and a life of excellence beyond addiction and relapse. 

It was inspiring to share food, conversation, and community with such passionate individuals working toward healing and transformation. 🌟

Thank you to everyone who joined us, your presence made the evening truly meaningful. 💛

At Friar Tuck’s “New Year All Here” celebration, we welcomed 2026 with friends and family through a quiet, reflective, and meaningful experience. The lights were dimmed, the candles were lit, and the music set a peaceful tone. Tables were filled with thoughtful conversation prompts, stories were shared, and one of our walls became the “Wish Wall.” Guests were invited to grab a paint pen and write their hopes for 2026. Wishes of peace, family, dreams, kindness, positivity, connection, and love rose to the surface, alongside lighter, more playful themes. Just before the stroke of midnight, we each held a candle and sang “Auld Lang Syne” together. We then toasted each other with a glass of champagne in an intimate moment of connection and gratitude. We’re deeply grateful for an evening spent with the people who make Friar Tuck’s the special place it is.
