Bokeh on the Plaza

Hi, I`m Danielle, I`m the bar manager for Bokeh on the Plaza, which opened up Dec of 2021.  I have been working in the industry for over 15 years now, everything from bartending to managing with multiple cocktail competitions in between.  I have had a chance to work with some amazing people throughout my career in and out of the city, so being able to bring a new place to life and have a hand in designing the room has definitely been a dream of mine.  

 

I`ve personally always worked downtown, the people and the vibe are just amazing.  Everything is within walking distance and you get to know everyone quickly if you don`t know them already.  The Germain company thought river landing was a perfect place to open The Alt and Bokeh with a design that would complement the area and the art scene. We love being a part of the Downtown community and couldn’t ask for a better location.

 

Bokeh is a craft cocktail bar with curated charcuterie boards by our Chef Eric.  We like to work with local businesses and suppliers and be able to support others where we can. I see Bokeh growing more in the years ahead as we are still pretty new.  I would love to host more events with our wonderful room.  I also look to expand our flights & Bites series we put on monthly in the fall and winter.  It features 4 select wines from a different region each month paired with a curated tasting board by our Chef.  We will kick the series off in Sept again and have the last one in May.  We do also have a lot planned for the coming seasons as well which will be posted about on our Instagram.  

 

I grew up here in Saskatoon, it has always been home to me, and without hesitation, it’s the people that make this city special. Neighbours supporting each other, whether that’s in business or on a personal level. While I am not working I am usually walking around downtown, grabbing coffee and in any spare moments, I try to visit my industry friends when they are working within the district.

 

I hope to see you all at Bokeh soon.
