Like many others in the restaurant industry this year, Nick Laborie had to get creative. In the summer, Bar Reyna and Reyna on King pivoted to sell everything from pre-made picnic baskets and vac-packed cocktails to boozy freezies and gelato. The busy entrepreneur had plans to open an events and catering space in March (ouch) so to cover the rent, she created a pop-up store in the space called Reyna Bazaar that sold locally crafted goods and Mediterranean pantry items. And now that we find ourselves in yet another lockdown, Laborie has started Reyna on the Rocks, selling DIY cocktail kits filled with everything you need to play bartender at home, as well as monthly cocktail subscriptions.
