Charis (pronounced care-iss) is named after our owner’s mother, Joan Charis Smith Jandernoa, who taught him that sharing music paired with a drink, lively conversation and the people you love is one of the best parts of life. Our hope is that Charis is a space that brings more of those moments for our friends, neighbors, and guests.

A giant thank you to the team that makes this possible.
