Elliot Park is one of Minneapolis’ oldest neighborhoods, filled with historic brownstones that overlook the city’s growing modern skyline. Its newest hotel needed a bar and restaurant as vibrant as this section of downtown.

BRANDING A GATHERING SPOT
The namesake neighborhood surrounding Elliot Park Hotel was ripe for a new gathering place. B&Co. researched the market and recommended an Italian steakhouse complete with a wood-burning stove.
The namesake neighborhood surrounding Elliot Park Hotel was ripe for a new gathering place. We researched the market and recommended an Italian steakhouse complete with a wood-burning stove. We called it Tavola, for the Italian tables family and friends gather ‘round.
New friends become family over a shared meal. Especially when it's as inventive as Breakfast Gnocchi and Bucatini Pomodoro.
JUST LIKE NONA USED TO MAKE
The team at Coury Hospitality ran with a menu of mouth-watering steaks and wood-fired specialties, while we took equal inspiration from chopped wood.
The brand assets include a hand-written logo and a warm and earthy color palette, as well as a brand pattern inspired by end-cut logs and a host of illustrations to convey the concept to locals and hotel guests alike.
