Lazy Bear Camp Commissary Launch

Project

Covid really did a number on the restaurant industry. In order to survive, Lazy Bear needed to pivot, quickly. So as a group we decided to take the restaurant in a completely different direction.

Gone were the days of $300 dinner tickets. Enter the era of Michelin-starred take out. Still maintaining the refined,  charming experience that has been cultivated over ten years.
