Team
Paul and Jennifer have created Boro6 Wine Bar in the spirit of a european taverna—the type of place they feel most connected to. The wines, small plates, seasonal salads, and artisanal meats and cheeses are served in intimate surroundings whose comfort says: Welcome Home.
B6WB was born abroad. While traveling and dining throughout Europe with friends and family, Paul and Jennifer were continually drawn to the small village tavernas serving local cheeses and sausages accompanied by crusty bread and uncomplicated wines. These simple spots defined for them ideal dining: pure, fresh ingredients made locally, served simply, in an un-rushed atmosphere that is warm and welcoming with comfortable accommodations for a quick stop or an entire evening.
By bringing Boro6 Wine Bar to their own village of Hastings, Paul and Jennifer offer a taste of a long-established european tradition. A place to slow down, savor, and gather with friends and neighbors of the Rivertowns. B6 is the postcard you can walk back into, relax, and stay awhile.
