Preserve is a casual American restaurant using sustainable and local products. Pickling, Preserving and Fermenting is a passion and focus on the menu.
Owner Michelle Hoffman’s vision for Preserve blends great food with excellent service, as well as an undying commitment to sustainability, Preserve’s Maryland Green Registry membership, and our local partners in sourcing ingredients, with financial guidance from part owner Matt Hetrick, CPA.
Michelle has had the opportunity to work with some of the best restaurants on the East Coast, inspiring her to put the same talent and acumen into her own restaurant in Preserve.
General Manager and Mixology Master Monnie Knight sets the bar truly high around here, no pun intended! She keeps Preserve operating smoothly as a tight ship. Behind the bar lately, she’s been taking more risks with new flavors and some exciting techniques. We’re truly excited about the libations she’s mixing up.
Chef De Cuisine Alex Flynn, Annapolis native, is a wildly passionate leader who keeps things running smoothly around here with aplomb. In addition to managing the kitchen, Alex curates the menu and daily seasonal specials for the restaurant. When he is not at the restaurant, you can probably find him at the farmer’s market.
