Mt. Joy
Best Practice happily joined the Mt Joy team early on to collaborate on a flagship space for this ambitious restaurant group. Dedicated to promoting regenerative farming products and to sustainably minded practices, Mt Joy stood out as a new and innovative addition to the Seattle food-scape. Backed by notable Chef Ethan Stowell and committed to sourcing their ingredients from a radius of 200 miles from their locations, their mission strongly addresses the need to treat the planet, the animals, the soil, and the humans with respect and to pay attention to the carbon emissions and sequestration opportunities along their supply chain. For their first location, the team settled on a space in Seattle’s bustling Capitol Hill neighborhood, right between busy Pike and Pine streets. While the existing storefront had many cool features, Mt Joy was most excited to take advantage of the large, glass overhead garage door and its potential for an open connection to the street. Brightly lit exterior signage enlivens the historic brick façade, and when the giant door is open, you can sit at the counter and people watch.
