Hospitality consulting that speaks your language.

Atelier Sawyer helps independent bars, cafés, and restaurants build businesses that last — with practical, creative, and financially grounded support. Whether you’re launching your first concept, refining a neighbourhood favourite, or scaling into new markets, we bring three decades of real-world experience to every challenge. No corporate jargon. No cookie-cutter advice. Just honest, hands-on guidance designed for the way hospitality really works.

How we work.

  • 1. We Listen First

    Before offering any advice, we get to know you — your business, your team, your challenges, and your ambitions.
    No assumptions. No jargon. Just understanding where you are and where you want to go.

  • 2. We Co-Create Solutions

    This isn’t consulting from a distance — it’s collaboration.
    We combine your knowledge of your venue with our operational and strategic experience to design solutions that fit your world, not a textbook.

  • 3. We Keep It Practical

    Every recommendation we give can be implemented in the real world — by real people, with real time constraints.
    You’ll always leave our sessions with clear priorities and actionable next steps, not just ideas.

  • 4. We Stay Accountable

    We don’t disappear after delivering a plan. We track progress, check in, and make sure change sticks.
    Think of us as your partner in follow-through, not just strategy.

  • 5. We Celebrate Your Wins

    Because in hospitality, the small victories matter too.
    When you hit your goals — open day, record week, first rave review — we’ll be the first to raise a glass with you.

  • Let’s Begin the Conversation

    Whether you need structure before launch, stability in growth, or fresh energy to scale, we’ll help you find your next step forward.
